Coolabahapple Cool! And cool clean up list thanks! Haven't seen that before, very handy! Cabrils (talk) 10:29, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sheik Ali link

I removed the link you found for the Sheik Ali article via ProQuest because it's subject to a conflict of interest and is therefore not reliable under the rules of BLP's. The article was written by the Sheik's son. Sources need to be independent of the subject. 2001:8003:58DD:C700:F148:E7ED:227:B7CB (talk) 22:57, 5 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you- I didn't realise that. Good pick up. Cabrils (talk) 01:22, 7 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

NW (magazine)

Noted that you improved reference from The Australin for circulation figures. The URL you cited doesn't work http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,20867,20072289-7582,00.html. Think it should be theaustralian.com.au, but a search there didn't locate the article. I thin we need a better refernce for circulation. I would prefer to remove the current broken one but thought it best to check first. Teraplane (talk) 22:19, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Teraplane. That url does work but requires a subscription, as you noted in the discussion here, which is why I added the additional metatdata of the author and page number, as I explained in that discussion. Again, as you noted, The Australian has a paywall and searches for content on its site may be limited if you are not a subscriber. Please feel free to add more references but as I suggested to you there, please be mindful of Wikipedia's policies, including WP:OFFLINE. For clarity, that citation is perfectly acceptable and I told you how you can access it. Cabrils (talk) 23:32, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok then, understand now, thanks for clarifying. The reference is fine, will leave it there. I think generally sources other than News Corp are better, such as 9 News, simply because they provide limited free access to most content. Many people will never consider paying for their news these days, so these The Australian references are invisible to the majority. Maybe Wikipedia needs to indicate when references are blocked by paywalls? Teraplane (talk) 00:59, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - Good one. You're certainly entitled to your opinion and if sources are freely available online then there's some clear benefits for verification, but of course there are billions of references that are offline (like hard copy books) which are entirely in accord with WP:VER. Rather than deleting sources, it's probably more constructive to add sources. All the best with it! Cabrils (talk) 01:04, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My Draft: Draft:Shadee_Elmasry

My draft was declined because it was said that there were not enough secondary-independent sources in the article. This article is a stub, but still has some in the article, as well as many outside of the article. User:Jibreel23

Secondary-Independent Sources in the Article

Secondary-Independent sources not in the article

@Jibreel23:: Hi, thanks for your response, it will speed up this process.

I declined your draft article using a template response, which in hindsight was not quite accurate: the issue for me is that the page does not show how the subject passes WP:GNG, nor specifically WP:PROF. I will add a comment to the draft page clarifying this.

In response to your post here: many of these sources would not pass WP:IRS. Please read both these policies to see how you might be able to improve the draft to meet the requirements. If you have any other questions please let me know, I'd be happy to help. Cabrils (talk) 02:49, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cabrils: I did more research on Wikipedia citations, and I removed citations that are not suitable for the article.
@Cabrils: I little while ago submitted the draft again! Also I noticed on your profile it says you are an inclusionist. What does that mean?-Jibreel23

@Jibreel23:: Thank you for your efforts. Unfortunately you will see on the draft page that I have again declined your submission--Elmasry is not notable-- he is just another academic. Perhaps in the future when he has achieved more standing he may qualify (see WP:TOOSOON). Keep up the good work. (For what an 'inclusionist' is, see See [[1]]) Cabrils (talk) 21:40, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cabrils: But I put the sources that were not self-published except for the About Us for safina society which is only used I was talking about his online institute. Also, above I listed sources that are independent in and outside of the article, and once I became for familiar with the criteria for independent sources, I kept the ones that were suitable I removed the others.

@Jibreel23:: Thanks for you further comments. As I said above, and on the draft page, please read WP:GNG, WP:PROF and WP:IRS. The subject of the draft page does not, in my opinion, meet WP:GNG or WP:PROF. Further, the sources do not meet WP:IRS: not being "self-published" does not satisfy WP:IRS. Perhaps in a few years, if Elmasry achieves some of the requirements of WP:PROF he will qualify, but as I said, it is WP:TOOSOON. Cabrils (talk) 02:18, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cabrils: I still think the topic is notable, but I guess I will have to do more work on it, so that the article itself fits the requirements. I will put more time into it and resubmit it when I think it fits the criteria, and this time I wont be hasty. Thanks for your help.

@Jibreel23:: Great. Keep up the good work. Cabrils (talk) 02:23, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments on Jessica Leigh Clark-Bojin, your requested changes have been implemented

Thank you for your comments on the AfC for Jessica Leigh Clark-Bojin Your requested edits have been made to the draft. Please advise if you feel the article is suitable for approval now. Thank you kindly! 2604:3D08:977E:B050:E52A:72CB:33EB:340D (talk) 06:27, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response on the page. The reference section has been cleaned up. It appears another editor added many new references, and somehow it created a second set of numbered links. Have also removed a number of sources that may not have fit the definition of reliable/independent as per the last reviewer's feedback. Please advise if entry is now suitable for approval. Thank you kindly. 2604:3D08:977E:B050:F1B3:C18B:CAD:3CAE (talk) 09:46, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

To the draft of Ben O'Toole

Hello. I resubmitted the draft, even though some of the sources are missing the titles. In case that you edit it and are dissatisfied with some of the existing sources, it will be easier for me if you delete the corresponding ones immediately. So I can specifically go in search of new ones. 84.154.109.232 (talk) 03:25, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Henry F. Korth page is updated

I updated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Henry_F._Korth with some reliable sources. Please have a look and reassess it, then let me know about the updates if there is any point where I can improve. Thank you for your comments. --Jrovc (talk) 13:00, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Jrovc: Good work! I've commented on the draft, thanks. Cabrils (talk) 00:48, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cabrils I updated all references and resubut the page, please have a look. Thank you for your support. Jrovc (talk) 12:59, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nice job! I've accepted that page. Cabrils (talk) 00:58, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Cabrils I am very happy to know that Wikipedia accepts my page. And especially I like to give you thanks for your help. Jrovc (talk) 04:56, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Draft: Chitiz Agarwal

Hi, thank you for reviewing my page. Can you tell me what is lacking with the references now? The previous editor said some of the references were from press releases and Forbes.com was not a valid source. I have added news articles from high-quality and leading publications from India for the article. You can verify each one of the references. Im confused as to what the problem is now. Would be great if you can give me a clear idea about the problem? As for the page reading like a CV, I have written it exactly how other entrepreneurs pages are on Wikipedia. For example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falguni_Nayar. Can you point out what else can be changed here? It would be great if you can at least allow the page to be published and let other contributors at least add to the page. If you are still unsatisfied, it can always be improved upon or changed or worst case scenario, removed. Thank you :)

@Alisha3107: Hi. As I posted in my comment on the draft page: the draft may have potential but I agree it currently reads like a CV, which Wikipedia is not! Please familiarise yourself with WP:ANYBIO, WP:PROF and referencing for beginners (all the citations require proper formatting). Please go to and read those links, which will answer your questions. For example, terms like "a Salesforce guru" is not encyclopedic. The references all need proper formatting. I know you are hopeful that the draft will be published but Agarwal needs to meet the basic criteria of being notable--just being a businessman is not sufficient. How you establish notability is explained in those links I sent you. I hope this helps! Good luck with it. Cabrils (talk) 01:16, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

Hi! Please look at my draft. Basically, the sources about this person are in Russian, but to make it easier to understand, I found a source in Forbes in English, where this person is described very extensively, including sanctions against him.31.40.143.16 (talk) 07:25, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
