00:35:13, 30 June 2021 review of draft by Uzik01
Good afternoon,
After 4 months in review the article I've created on Adolf Shapiro (theatre director) was declined by the user Scorpions13256 citing minimum standard for inline citations.
Unfortunately the user Scorpions13256 is unavailable for any comment, user talk page is down for mental health issues.
The article does not contain direct quotations, no challenged statements or statements tagged with "citation needed", no statement that is likely to be challenged, and no contentious material.
The article also contains 18 inline citations.
Furthermore, the article is a translation of the article within Russian language wikipedia which apparently does meet citation standards. Except where Russian language article has 12 inline citation here we expanded the list to 18.
Perhaps the problem is with citation format, or some specific statement is causing the article to be declined, but since the reviewer is unavailable for comment I have no choice but to request help here.
Thank you in advance.

I am the original creator of this draft but I was told it was not referenced properly. But I was not told which lines are missing citations so I can add them. They are all from an official University website so if needed I can cite every single line (but that seems excessive to me).

- One source is nowhere near enough to justify an article, let alone a source associated with the subject. You need to come up with strong third-party sources. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 02:22, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

- The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. An organization only merits an article if it receives significant coverage in independent reliable sources, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization; your draft does not do that and the reviewer rejected it because they see little chance that it can. 331dot (talk) 07:27, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

- AlicjankaC (talk · contribs) (TB)
I would like to speed up my draft review, and add a category to my draft:Małgorzata Cybulska. It is about Tokyo Summer Olympics 2020, women equestrian/ eventing athletes. Unfortunately, the category I see is "german scientists" and don't know how to change it. I would like to add this tag about Tokyo since my draft is about one of the nominated athletes for Tokyo that did not have her article yet, so publishing this article should be fast.

It meets GNG. The editor rejecting it did not even indicate that he considered GNG .. only the sport-specific guideline, but clearly simply meeting GNG is sufficient. 2603:7000:2143:8500:C13F:1A89:7716:B2C3 (talk) 05:44, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- The issue is that all of the references are basically the announcement of him qualifying to compete in the Olympics so nothing outside of that which shows why he is notable. --CNMall41 (talk) 06:50, 1 July 2021 (UTC)
- That does not force one to only consider the sport-specific guideline. If a subject meets GNG, even if all the articles are about them picking their toes, that is sufficient (As the sports notability guideline states: "Subjects that do not meet the sport-specific criteria outlined in this guideline may still be notable if they meet the General Notability Guideline ..."). No need whatsoever to consider why they meet GNG, and to then focus only on the sport-specific guideline, and ignore GNG. That's, respectfully, incorrect. --2603:7000:2143:8500:A053:DB60:EEA0:34CD (talk) 17:16, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Request on 12:10:24, 1 July 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Peps215
I created the Kellee Marlow page to further pages of rising podcasters and filmmakers. Kellee Marlow is well-known as a podcaster and budding filmmaker. I wasn't sure if a page about the film needed to be created first but the reviewer who declined the article says she isn't notable enough. I disagree. She is well-known in her area and I have added links from others listed on Wikipedia who have mentioned her, along with references across the Internet. This is my first time doing an article but I see entries with less references than hers but I'll keep digging up more articles if that is the final word.
A little more direction would be greatly appreciated especially since I am a newbie. Thank you! I look forward to contributing more articles in the future if I can get this process figured out.
Best, Sarah

- You are in the process of creating a Wikipedia article, not just page. The existence of other potientially inappropiate articles does not mean yours can too, though you are welcome to point them out so that we can deal with them. With regards to the current draft, I am not impressed by the reliability of the sources used and the fact that most are affilated with the subject, IMDB is unreliable, Medium is unreliable too. 14:14, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I am hoping to re-review this drafted page for Spencer's TV and Appliance. Prior, the text was not properly cited and extremely sales-y, and read like an advert rather than solely informational about the company. Based on this feedback, I have revised the text to remove all sales/advertisement language and included proper citations for each informational fact.

- The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. Wikipedia is not for merely providing information or confirming the existence of something; that is considered promotional here. You don't have to be actively soliciting customers or selling something. A Wikipedia article about a company must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a company, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable company.

The reviewer states: "This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject"
Yet the short article has six external links to commercial publications or which half are daily newspapers in South Africa and one is GQ South Africa. This is a brief article about the first black real estate agency owner in South African history and I believe he deserves a mention, and I am not understanding why these references are not "significant coverage" or why these are not "published, reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject" - this seems like some kind of bias against African sources to me.

Hi! I have a question about notability regarding my article about Jan-Wouter Oostenrijk.
There have been quite a few publications that discuss his career as a musician but they are mostly in Dutch. I assume I cannot use these Dutch texts on the English page? There is already a Dutch Wikipedia page for him with significant links. Is that considered to build notability? I could really use your input here!
Thanks in advance,

Hello, I submitted a new page for posting but was not accepted because it reads like "an advertisement." I thought it was written objectively and am now I'm looking for advice on what edits I can make to have this accepted. Thank you! One k tone (talk) 20:15, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hello One k tone, I agree with the reviewer this is almost entirely written like something we would find in a pamphlet trying to sell space in this vault. What the article should based on is only what others have written about it in reliable sources. We write in our own words and don't succumb to the marketing lingo. So avoid terms like "Premium" and "High-tech". I would remove the entire Facilities section as this is entirely promotional, not encyclopedic and unreferenced. The first reference is not helping either as it does not discuss the subject at all and the story being supported by it is then falling into Original Research territory. The second reference is to Wikipedia itself and this is a academic misdemeanor, we don't use Wikipedia as a source. We either wikilink the article or find the actual source in the article to support the information. Lastly avoid references that are press releases, these can be hard to tell sometimes but the Malibu Magazine very much reads like a press release. At this point I am not willing to offer a determination on notability. Please also read through WP:CORPDEPTH as well. The way this is written and the information included there may also be a concern with conflict of interest editing. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 21:07, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

If you search for "Urjumelashvili" in the search box for the page it shows the information. I don't know how to get a link that already has the surname written in the search box. What do I do? I saw another family Wikipedia article, Glonti (also a Georgian surname) and in it, they use the same site for a source in the reference list, and when you click the link there it takes you to the same site but it just says 404 გვერდი არ მოიძებნა (meaning: page not found) I don't get how that was approved if this isn't.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:How_geogen_looks_.png#/media/File:How_geogen_looks_.png - in which books the surname appears
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:How_geogen_looks_2.png#/media/File:How_geogen_looks_2.png - from which cities it originates
I'd be very thankful if you could help me out :)

19:45:28, 3 July 2021 review of draft by Forich
I recently created the draft Draft:Ramses Ramos and submitted it for review as a new article. It received this review on July 2 2021:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
. The reviewer was User: Yeeno. I have introduced half a dozen new sources to the same draft, most of them pertaining to websites of the main TV networks in Colombia (Caracol Television and RCN Television), and others from important local news outlets (i.e. El Tiempo (Colombia)). Please review whether the inclusion of these new sources is enough to address the defficiencies pointed out by Yeeno in his review. Pinging @Yeeno: to see if he can comment here as well.

- Forich, The article was certainly improved with your addition of reliable sources. The only ask I have is that you remove the IMDb reference, as IMDb is not an acceptable reference. I think it's much better than when it was declined, and you are always welcome to resubmit the draft, but it is up to the next reviewer to determine whether it passes either our notability criteria for actors or our general notability criteria.

Question by Champ Imi model
Hello sir How many wikipedia pages have I created? I have also made tea with news articles But they all get deleted within 24 hours Please can tell me what is the issue, why is the page of wikipedia getting deleted?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Champ Imi model (talk • contribs)
- @Champ Imi model: Hello and Welcome to the AfC help desk. I am not an administrator and therefore cannot see the deleted revisions, however, according to the deletion reason, they were deleted becuase promotion is forbidden here. You might also be interested in Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch, particularely its "Puffery" subsection. If you have further questions, perhaps ask them at the Teahouse rather than here because you have a bigger audience there. Victor Schmidt (talk) 18:27, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

I feel like the article I wrote that got denied for Erik Brandt and the Urban Hillbilly Quartet fulfills the noteriety criteria.
It has multiple articles from multiple regional print sources: The Kalamazoo Gazette (ref 1), The Ripsaw in Duluth (ref 8, 33), The Twin Cities Daily Planet (ref 13), The Isthmus in Madison (ref 14), The Pulse in the Twin Cities (ref 20), Seven Days in Vermont (ref 50), Onions AV Club in Madison (ref 70), and Skope in Boston (ref 73)
It also has an article in national music magazine Paste (ref 21).
I feel like this covers the "has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself" criteria.
If it doesn't, why?
Thanks!
OliverForest (talk) 05:55, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- @OliverForest: Not about notability, I am just curious: In Draft:Erik Brandt and the Urban Hillbilly Quartet you use a bunch of sources that read like "Stonehocker 1999", something my head can't convert to the data needed to identify (and possibly access) the souce in question.

Wikipedia is a place to summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability. I would suggest that before attempting to create a new article(the hardest task to perform on Wikipedia) that you first spend much time editing existing articles in areas that interest you, to get a feel for how Wikipedia operates and what is expected of article content.

Secondly, you used to have a declaration on your user page (here) that you are being paid for your contributions concerning Poonam Ankur Chhabra, but you removed it half an hour ago, just before you removed the conflict of interest tag from the draft.

Hi,
I have a few questions in regards to my draft.
1. Overall I want to know if the submission is too long? I have edited it down but when compared with submissions on similar subjects it is more detailed.
2. Should I include a table for the subject, as per the example here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Murrell
3. Is it best to change the order of the article so that the 'Early Life and Education' section is below 'Career'.
Many thanks in advance
Cog360 (talk) 05:55, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Cog360, I'll answer your questions as you've numbered them;
- 1. The length seems ok, though I have not read it in depth.
- 2. WP:Infoboxes can be a bit fiddly to get right, particularly for beginners, so leaving it for someone else to do is fine.
- 3. The order is correct. A biography should be in chronological order so the events of childhood and youth come before the subject's career.
