Adding Tirhal Taxi service to wikiperdia

Hi, I am new to Wikipedia world, I am from Sudan, Many of information in Sudan are missing there. I had tried to create a page regarding Tirhal Taxi service(Sudan Uber-Like), but I think it's deleted due Wikipedia regulation.. I added all necessary references and links. Surely I am not trying to advertise any entity, but I want to add a contribution in unknown world for many people. Thanks and best regards.

Submission declined: Dunlap Institute for Astronomy & Astrophysics

Hi Ammarpad, I'm trying to understand why my submission has been declined. The response said: "The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at David Dunlap Observatory." But the reason I am creating this article is because the Dunlap Institute is not associated with the Dunlap Observatory; the institute and the observatory are two distinct entities. And the article about the institute is required because when a search is done for the "Dunlap Institute", the user is given the observatory's article.

Also, with regard to "does not have sufficient content", my understanding is that I can't just write about the institute--that I have to reference other sources. And so I have tried to adhere to that. But I find passages like the following, about the Perimeter Institute, which does not give a source; I take that to mean someone just wrote that passage. Can I do that?

"Perimeter Institute offers a number of planned courses each year, including cross-listed programs with universities and mini-courses given by PI faculty, associate faculty and visiting researchers. The courses are made available to all students enrolled in surrounding universities. The popular courses are attended by students from University of Waterloo, University of Western Ontario, McMaster University, University of Guelph, University of Toronto, York University, and other centres."

Thanks for your help. Cheers, DunComm DunComm (talk) 19:16, 18 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@DunComm: Please bear with this belated response. I was about to ask you whether you work for Dunlap Institute or you're paid to write this article then I noticed that you've already declared that, that's a good step. But you should move that disclosure to your userpge where you wrote this. I have now resubmitted it so as to be reviewed by another editor independently. –Ammarpad (talk) 17:08, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Helios Voting Deletion

Hi Ammarpad,

Can you provide me with some tips or feedback on how to make my article non promotional. I am finding it difficult because I wrote the article from a non-biased point of view. The article is about Helios Voting, so I only included true facts. Also, I stated in the heading "Security" that there are loopholes in its security. That is not promotional at all, but rather, putting down the Helios system. Where are some areas that you identify as promotional? Thank you for your feedback. Li.andy (talk) 03:54, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Li.andy. I understand it may not be your intention, but actually, the article in its current form is only promotional in nature. Sections like "Mission", "How Does Voting Work?" which are explaining the mission of creating the software and how to use it in plain How-To sytle are entirely not encyclopaedic. In addition, it generally lacks independent sources. All it depends on is authors website (who himself doesn't have article) and couple of embedded PDF documents. In its current form it is unencyclopedic. As newly invented software it must have multiple reliable and third party independent sources, if there are none or insufficient then that means it is not yet notable and subsequently not suitable for Wikipedia. –Ammarpad (talk) 04:05, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your constructive feedback. I will work on improving the article to make it non promotional and change the headings. That is true I never used any independent sources, and I will find some to use. All my references so far, except the first reference, are academic journals published by universities wrote by respected professionals in their field. Li.andy (talk) 04:16, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I have moved it to Draft:Helios Voting for you to work on. Because it is in draft space where articles are incubated to meet reasonable standard. When you're done, you've either of two options: You cn click "submit for review" which is in the draft so that an independent reviewer will review it and move it to mainspace if found ready. Or, you can do that yourself, see Help:How to move a page. But I will advise you to not rush. If you rush in moving it back without improvement it is very likely to be deleted, take your time also to read WP:WEASEL WORDS and this guide on creating article. Ask me if you don't understand any more thing. –Ammarpad (talk) 04:29, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ammarpad,
I have made edits to make it non promotional. I have also added 2 other independent sources. Can you please let me know if the draft article is ready for the mainspace. Thank you. Li.andy (talk) 10:09, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Li.andy:, I saw that it has been moved to mainspace already. Keep up the good work. It looks better now. –Ammarpad (talk) 03:58, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Ammarpad:, Thank you for all your help! Li.andy (talk) 07:59, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oonrak International School.

Hello Ammarpad! Please do not remove the page about Oonrak International School. It's not promotion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oonrak International School (talk • contribs) 06:27, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ammarpad, this school is on the list of "International Schools in Thailand" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_international_schools_in_Thailand I just try to add info about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oonrak International School (talk • contribs) 06:32, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Onarak: But you're working for the school. Aren't you? –Ammarpad (talk) 06:36, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm not working at this school. My son is enrolled to this school — Preceding unsigned comment added by Oonrak International School (talk • contribs)
I see that. Your son schools there, that's why you're promoting them. –Ammarpad (talk) 06:57, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for Speedy Deletion

Hi Ammarpad,

I created this page to display the details of TRS. Muthukumaar, as he is a public figure already. I got various references from internet and media to endorse my article. is there any other reason for this speedy deletion tag? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yuvi Edits (talk • contribs) 06:39, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional Contents Removed.

Hi Ammarpad,

I thing i have removed some information about this business from his biography page. I think the information about his business looked promotional.

Still anything needs to be done for making the page permanent? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yuvi Edits (talk • contribs) 06:52, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Draft edited and submitted for reviewing

Hello. Thanks for kindly moving my article to the draft space sometime ago (on the 12.04.18). I edited it now for good and submitted it for review but I'm not sure if it has gone through. Can you please check out if my draft has been submitted ? I'm just worried that my draft submission went through as unamed/unregistered user or similar and not as cartographies (I was making my edit using the same tab for many days). Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cartographies (talk • contribs) 09:49, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Cartographies. Here's is a link to your edits. As per as I can see you've not submitted any draft for review. Also, the article that I moved has not been edited again since then. Can you link to the actually draft you're submitting? –Ammarpad (talk) 10:02, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ammarpad and many thanks for checking out for my draft. Actually I can't send you the link submitted cause as soon as I submitted it I can't find it (!). That's why I was worried that I was editing not as cartographies. I have kept the content so I can place it back to the article. But I've a slight issue right now... I'm trying to edit something on the page and it looks that I can't add some text (!). Do I have to click on any tab before I start editing again ? Thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Cartographies (talk • contribs) 10:22, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Can you remember the title? –Ammarpad (talk) 10:27, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If you mean the title of the article is this : Thanos Chrysaki — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cartographies (talk • contribs)
Well here is it Draft:Thanos Chrysakis. You've not edited it since then. In fact you made only one edit, apart from on this talkpage. So continue improving it there now. –Ammarpad (talk) 11:01, 23 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Ammarpad. Actually I edited for sure but I wasn't logged in so when I submitted who knows where it landed. I have re-submitted it edited now. Thanks for the help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cartographies (talk • contribs)

Fat Nick - Deletion

Hey Ammarpad,

I see that you deleted the page I created for Fat Nick, that my sources were not reliable and the page was too promotional.

Many of the sources I cited that were removed were reputable rap/hiphop news publications.

Can you give me some insight on to what was wrong with these sources, and what sources would be more appropriate?

I used the Envy On The Coast wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envy_on_the_Coast) that I formerly updated in 2017 as my guide for creating this page for fat nick, and I would like to create a page that holds up to Wiki's guidelines, that isn't promotional, but strictly informational.

Fat Nick has a huge following online, and I was quite surprised that there is no official WIKI page for this person, and wanted to create something simple, and clear. 17:31, 23 April 2018 (UTC)~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Keatonkustler (talk • contribs)

I didn't delete any page. It is only undergoing deletion discussion. You can participate.
The sources removed are YouTube videos and SoundCloud self-published profile. They cannot establish notability. See IS and RS. –Ammarpad (talk) 07:09, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Page changes

Hi Ammarpad,

Please help me to understand. I do not see the guidelines I have violated. I simply wanted to remove my birthdate and update pertinent career information. Is it because I did not know to provide references to the changes? The acting information listed has not been updated since 2014.

Woka Woka review

Hello,

Please can you give me a short quid how can I rewrite the Woka Woka page? Yes, I am new member at Wiki, but i read all the guides for my first article, so i gladly ask you for help. I saw that one of the main things is that article is written in way of promotion. Is that meaning that i have to write in objective way? What is the thing that suggest that article is meant for promotion?

Thank you, Have a great day! Igorbogojevic95 (talk) 18:35, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Igorbogojevic95: Yes, the easier and new-user-friendly way to rewrite your article is to use Article Wizard which will take you through important steps and then give you space to start new article. Also, yes, promotion of whatever nature is not allowed here. See WP:NOT policy on that and even more. Also read WP:YFA to get more guide on how the tone of your article should be. –Ammarpad (talk) 18:54, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Than you a lot!I will follow your instructions!Igorbogojevic95 (talk) 19:14, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's great. Good luck. –Ammarpad (talk) 19:19, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I followed your instruction and fixed text in non-promotional way. I published Woka Woka (game) as a draft, so what is my next move? I have to wait for review or do i have to send it to submit to review? Thank you in advance and have a great day! Igorbogojevic95 (talk) 08:50, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You've already submitted it for review. Wait for few days, a volunteer reviewer will review it. –Ammarpad (talk) 08:20, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
