Please always practice appropriate account security by ensuring your password is secure and unique to Wikimedia.
• As a reminder, according to WP:NOQUORUM, administrators looking to close or relist an AfD should evaluate a nomination that has received few or no comments as if it were a proposed deletion (PROD) prior to determining whether it should be relisted.

Kalpana Mohan Page

Hi, Thank you so much for advice & resolving it. I really appreciate it. Youtube may not be 100% accurate but Times of India article on Kalpana Mohan has to be reliable as it is published newspaper facts & on basis of it Kalpana Mohan Wikipedia article is based, you can too fact check the link given in the Kalpana Mohan reference.

Since I cannot be attached a snapshot here I copy paste from the article "Kalpana Mohan was born in Srinagar on July 18, 1946. Her father, Avani Mohan, a freedom fighter, was close to Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and an active member of the All India Congress Committee. Kalpana, who trained in Kathak, was often invited by Nehru to dance at the Rashtrapati Bhavan whenever dignitaries visited. She was spotted by actor Balraj Sahani and Urdu writer Ismat Chughtai, who encouraged her to come to Mumbai. Kalpana got her first break in the movie Professor in 1962."

Compare my changes which you can update now as fact are verified.

Early life: She was also an accomplished Kathak dancer trained under Pandit Shambhu Maharaj. She was a good swimmer & Horse rider too.

Career: Nehru often invited Kalpana, a trained Kathak dancer, to dance at the Rashtrapati Bhavan whenever dignitaries visited. Actor Balraj Sahani and Urdu writer Ismat Chughtai spotted the beautiful dancer and encouraged her to come to Mumbai and try her luck in films.

Filmography 1. Pyar Ki Jeet (1962) 2. Naughty Boy (1962) 3. Professor (1962) 4. Saheli (1965) 5. Teesra Kaun (1965) 6. Teen Devian (1965) 7. Biwi Aur Makan (1966) 8. Tasveer (1966) 9. Pyar Kiye Jaa (1966) 10. Nawab Sirazuddaula (1967) 11. Ek Bechara (1972)

I really appreciate your guidance & help for a beginner. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yashkkaryan (talk • contribs) 19:04, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi Yashkkaryan, as a mainstream national newspaper, the Times of India is a good source, a  few more sources of similar quality would improve your draft's chances of acceptance. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 06:54, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

Additional info requested regarding article review (Mini Spot Game)

Hi Dodger67,

I'm trying to understand your review remark about my recently drafted artice (Mini Spot Game). I believe it's a generic response and I'm afraid I can't make heads or tails of it.

The article is not in any way trying to be humorous. It states the goal and rules involved in a game that is becoming more and more popular in my area. As far as I'm aware all data is correct and factual. And it is most definitely no hoax.

I'm hoping you could please elaborate a bit on why the draft doesn't meet the standards.

Thanks in advance,

Hi JohnnoStevenson, the basic problem is that you have provided no references to published information about this game, thus making it impossible to judge whether it really exists. However, mere existence alone is not sufficient for inclusion in Wikipedia, a topic must also be Notable. Also see the Referencing for beginners guide for further information.
