Is ICFAI University Tripura providing quality education to the new generation of the country?

This page is for help with editing articles - so we wouldn't have any opinion about that, sorry.  Chzz  ►  14:55, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about an upcoming American-Taiwanese Singer, Anthony Neely. It needs to be reviewed by another person other than the creator. Assistance to do so would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Although I cannot read the Taiwanese links, I don't think this passes the notability guidelines; see WP:VRS and WP:NMUSIC. As you say, he is "upcoming" - and therefore, at the moment, is probably not notable enough for an article. Sorry.  Chzz  ►  14:57, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I also can not see the foreign links. Perhaps this person is not notable in the English-speaking world and therefore does not YET warrant an article on the English Wikipedia. Eric Cable  |  Talk  20:55, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is the first article I have created, so I would really appreciate feedback as to how it turned out! Thanks!!

Almost all the refs are to the org website; primary sources are not enough; you need to show coverage in independent sources - WP:VRS.  Chzz  ►  15:02, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. I suggest you go to the library and search in the Reader's Guide to Peridoical Literature and find articles in good news magzines such as Newsweek, Time, etc. and use those for references. GOod Luck. Eric Cable  |  Talk  20:58, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I have just written an article about the different types of container candles that are available on the market. This is my first article in Wikipedia and I would love some feedback. I tried to be as comprehensive as possible, citing reliable sources, even though there are few that I found helpful. Thank you for your time!

Wouldn't this information be of more use (easier to find) as a section in an existing article like candle or Soy candle? Eric Cable  |  Talk  21:01, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Would someone please review my article? It's my first one...

New article, I had several looks and revisions in userspace, but please review now that it's in main. Thank you.

Assistance with formatting on some of the various references (particularly the non-online ones in History) would be appreciated

Hello, this is my first article and would like some feedback before I move it to Main. I would hate to see the page deleted so any advice would be appreciated.

Many thanks!

This is my first article and I would like some feedback on content length, citations and links. Thank you.

User:Stephenalewis/Liberty Safe User:Stephenalewis/Liberty Safe Need help making sure this stub is appropriate, and ultimately post after necessary revisions.

Most of the sources is the manufacturer's website. However I stove to be objective and factual in the article. Wanted feedback before making public.

  • I realize I used reference #1 A LOT in this article. Mr. Smith lists several references at the end of his work, but for me to cite those I would need to travel hundreds of miles and dig through piles and piles of 200-year-old documents, if available (Mr. Smith's work was published in 1979) I have made attempts to find better online cites, but have not.
  • In Mr. Smith's work (cite #1) he states that there is a portrait of John Simmons Baker hanging in the Grand Lodge of North Carolina Building in Raleigh. I have sent a couple emails inquiring about said portrait, but have received no response. I will attempt to find that portrait and take a photo of it when I visit the Grand Lodge this coming August. (I live in Charlotte)
  • Also, during my trip to Raleigh I will take a photo of the cornerstone of the State Capitol which bears Dr. Baker's name (if I can't find a photo otherwise in the mean time).
  • Regarding Notability: I'm sure I will meet notability arguments about this person. That being said I will argue that he was a community leader who studied at two of the most famous medical schools at the time, was a state legislator, was a state masonic grand master, laid the cornerstone of the state capitol, has a town in Florida named after his home, and a google search for "Simmons J. Baker" results in 8800 hits

Thank you for your kind consideration while reviewing this article.

Hi, I've read the tutorials and tips available on Wikipedia about writing one's first article, but before publishing this I'd like to get feedback from someone with Wiki experience.

This is an article about the firm of Nagle Hartray Architecture, named Chicago AIA Firm of the Year in 2009. The firm has been featured in numerous professional and popular publications and has received over 75 awards in the last 40 years, as substantiated by the Wiki article's selected reference list. The article should establish without bias that this is a design firm whose work is widely recognized as "notable," thus deserving of documentation in Wikipedia. I'd really appreciate suggestions for improving this article.

Note: I am trying to coordinate inclusion of photography that has been released under a Creative Commons license, etc.

Thank you!

Burr Oak 20:54, 3 February 2011 (UTC) I think this is a really good start. You have some broken links (show up as red). Fix those or delete the links. Also, consider adding an infobox to the article like this one: CERT Group of Companies  Eric Cable  |  Talk  21:07, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could someone have a look at this and tell me if I've done it right...?

Thank you so much, Emily
