04:48:17, 3 December 2018 review of submission by Loonieeex



In my opinion, Handy Backup is a program of significant importance. It exists since 2002, it has countless users throughout the world, and it is updating constantly. I don't think that all products listed in the List_of_backup_software are more important than Handy Backup. How I can rewrite an article to make it more important and helpful for Wikipedia users? Please give me an adivce.

Loonieeex (talk) 04:48, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Loonieeex. Neither PCauthorities nor TechWibe exhibit the characteristics of reliable sources, so don't use them as references. PCMag and PCworld are acceptable sources, but not great ones. Look for more and better sources. Don't cherrypick sources. PCMag's June 17, 2003 review describes Handy Backup 3.9 as "mediocre and somewhat limiting". An encyclopedia such as Wikipedia is often more interested in the history of a thing than in its current state.
You may be able to get more advice by asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Software. In addition to Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Products and services, there's an essay on the notability of software products. If the topic doesn't meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, consider alternative outlets, such as Software Wikia. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:38, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

08:36:29, 3 December 2018 review of draft by Dominik Hellfritzsch


Hey dear AfC-Team,

I filed a request a couple of weeks ago on the above mentioned article that was declined by a reviewer who has been banned since then and who I could not contact for further information due to that. So far I have not gotten a response to said request so I hope it is okay to give it another try. I'll quote my original request here:

"Hi there,

I recently tried to create this article on a piece of software on behalf of the company I'm working for. I created an article for both the German and English Wikipedia using mostly the same sources (unless there was a more useful source exclusive to either language). The German article was accepted without a problem while it did not pass review here. By now I know that the different Wikipedias operate quite differently, but I'd still like to know how specifically I can improve the draft so I can re-submit it at some point. Sadly I cannot contact the person responsible for the review since they have since then been blocked due to sock puppetry. Maybe somebody here can help me. Thanks a lot in advance!

best,

Dominik"

14:17:39, 3 December 2018 review of draft by Galesbury


Have started this biography. I've chosen not too get into the full biog as I'd like the community to take it and "run with it" so to speak. There are specialists in this area, so rather than make a hash of the biog and then have someone correct it, I feel a fleshing out of the biog should come from the community. Hence, my submission is not the entire lifespan of the person.

Welcome feedback!

16:40:56, 3 December 2018 review of submission by Crossxroads315


The reviewer said "none of he sources cover Anna in detail" but the first source is her biography. Which states that she's an artist that appeared on America's Got Talent, was a Vine personality, and it also signed to a record label. The interview source discusses her mental health, which although is a primary source, other secondary sources included have also discussed her mental health. The interview article simply shows her commitment to bringing awareness to it. Sources on HuffPost, Mashable, and Hollywood Reporter verify her participation on America's Got Talent as well as her influence on Vine. These sources are independent and reliable, and they aren't press releases or some form of advertising. She is in the process of releasing an album on a major indie label, that has many notable artists signed under them. She is worth a wikipedia article because she fits the criteria.

Crossxroads315 (talk) 16:40, 3 December 2018 (UTC)crossxroads315[reply]

Do notice that except is used (AllMusic is a good start), but everything else is a passing mention or primary. She needs multiple reliable secondary sources that cover her in detail. One is not enough (with that also being AllMusic bio to boot). Jovanmilic97 (talk) 15:30, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's not possible because no one knows my old password or username!!!!!!! Is it possible that Wikipedia was wrong?

22:01:19, 3 December 2018 review of submission by Candyman0120

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wells_Town_F.C

}}Hi Wiki users,

I'm currently creating a wiki page for a local football team where I live close to. My page has been reviewed and has come back as unable to publish due to not enough valid references (Which is understandable).

After some thorough research through the internet trying to find some valuable sources relating to Wells Town, it has come to my conclusion that there just isn't any relatable resources for them. (Not to get mixed up with Wells City FC - Two completely different clubs!) Wells Town FC has only recently started using social media for live score updates and future fixtures in the last 2 years. I have linked both their facebook page and twitter page to the wiki article. I can't seem to find any history of the Club apart from archives they have at the ground.

Can anyone please shed a little bit more light as to what I can do to improve my page?

Thanks, Candyman0120.

Candyman0120 (talk) 22:01, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not notable Your search for sources proves the page can't pass our notability guidelines. I suggest working on editing and improving existing topics that interest you before trying again to create a page from scratch. New pages are not that easy - you need to find notable verifiable topic not covered in the over 5 million existing pages and that is not easy. Legacypac (talk) 08:01, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 22:47:23, 3 December 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Vernon123usa


History about chatbots is very essential as people are still confused as to what chatbots really are. Although the page "chatbots" exists it speaks about chatbots as a whole. The page I created shows that chatbots were simple and later on, with companies like Google and apple realized its potential, it is being integrated into various applications. I agree, the content might be less, however, people will continue to add more in time. THere are so many chatbots being developed which also need to be included here. This page should summarize the entire history of popular chatbots for easy viewing

Hello, my own article draft of AMKTech Versions has references, no copies, has used reliable sources, but wasn't accepted. What could be the problem? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MatthewTheGreatestGamer (talk • contribs) 08:25, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

08:52:39, 4 December 2018 review of draft by Josephintechnicolor


I would like to confirm that Books indexed in Google referencing the subject, Kelly (Mohre) Hyman, can support notability please. Josephintechnicolor (talk) 08:52, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Josephintechnicolor. The first three books do nothing to establish notability. They are passing mentions in a cast list. I have not evaluated Young and the Restless: Most Memorable Moments, but even if it contains significant coverage of Hyman (think a chapter, or a few pages, or at least several meaty paragraphs), it would not be enough on its own to establish notability. Novice editors are commonly advised to cite at least three independent, reliable, secondary sources that contain significant coverage of the topic. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:11, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Worldbruce. Thank you for answering my question, I will continue to look. I also felt the Youth award nomination would be notable perhaps I can find something to help in that area.

09:08:38, 4 December 2018 review of draft by SpeedwayInfo


SpeedwayInfo (talk) 09:08, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I developed this page relating to my favourite sport of speedway prior anyone else on Wikipedia and and in previous seasons I will update this page regularly with the correct information.

Today, I noticed that because this page was put into draft space someone else has started a page on Wikipedia for the same subject although their page is inferior to the one that I'm creating. I do not think that this is far and reasonable.

Can I please edit that page and place my code over the inferior 2019 SGB Championship to something that looks much better on Wikipedia.

11:21:31, 4 December 2018 review of draft by MatthewTheGreatestGamer

MatthewTheGreatestGamer (talk) 11:21, 4 December 2018 (UTC)Can you help me? I had a draft with reliable sources, web sources, not copied, and done everything for a draft. What is the problem about my Draft:AMKTech Versions?[reply]

Hi MatthewTheGreatestGamer. Sources used to demonstrate notability must be independent of the topic, as the bulk of any article's sources must be. Draft:AMKTech Versions's only sources are AMKTech, which is not independent. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:49, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

12:55:31, 4 December 2018 review of draft by 134.88.35.170


I am creating this new entry for a late astrophysicist colleague who passed away tragically. I want to ensure it meets the notability requirements for academics. Can you provide feedback as to whether the current draft of the entry satisfies these? How does the formatting overall look?

134.88.35.170 (talk) 12:55, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@134.88.35.170: - as this draft is now an article and has been patrolled and approved, the initial hurdles to demonstrating academic notability have been passed. Obviously someone may disagree with it in the future, but my personal thoughts would be he passes. Overall formatting looks good. I'm sorry for the loss of your colleague.

13:54:44, 4 December 2018 review of submission by Dave Mulryan


I have never done this, but Mulryan/Nash created a whole category of advertising, and I thought that it had some relevance. Thanks for your assistance. I have no idea what I am doing, but I am doing it anyway. Thanks, Dave Mulryan


Dave Mulryan (talk) 13:54, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dave Mulryan. Don't write about yourself, your family, friends, or company. See WP:BFAQ#COMPANY and Wikipedia:Autobiography for further explanation of why. If you're interested in improving Wikipedia, we have millions of articles on topics to which you aren't closely connected. See Wikipedia:Community portal for ways to help. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:34, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 14:13:55, 4 December 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Fs2458


Hello. This is my first attempt at getting a page listed on Wikipedia. I'm not sure what other references to list or how to do so. Can you help with some direction?


Fs2458 (talk) 14:13, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Fs2458. Writing a new article from scratch is one of the most frustrating and time consuming things a novice editor can attempt. Wikipedia:Your first article explains how to do it, including an entire "Gathering references" section, but there are a million easier and more rewarding ways to improve Wikipedia than writing entirely new articles. Explore Wikipedia:Community portal for ideas about how to help. After editing existing articles for a few weeks or months you'll have a much better grasp of what it takes to write a new article. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:25, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

16:09:27, 4 December 2018 review of submission by Ecoarts1


hello, my first article was accepted but then I noticed one comment declaring the article needed to be rewritten. Which is it?

Ecoarts1 (talk) 16:09, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ecoarts1. The original acceptance was overturned, and the page returned to Draft:Ray Lorenzato. Three major problems were identified:
  1. Nearly every source cited is a primary source. Wikipedia articles should be based mainly on secondary sources. This is one of the differences between academic writing and writing for an encyclopedia.
  2. Inline citations are missing from material that requires them. Material for which a reliable, published source cannot be cited should be removed. An incomplete biography is fine; an unverifiable one is unacceptable.
  3. The reviewer also felt the "tone is also incredibly promotional". To address this, be sure to use independent sources and follow the guidance in Wikipedia:Encyclopedic style, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Avoid peacock terms. Stick to verifiable events and don't state reasons for them in Wikipedia's voice ("His passion for learning and teaching led him to take a year-long sabbatical", for example, is unacceptable).

I have submitted an Article for Creation, published in the Sandbox. I am unclear on the prtocol - am I now waiting for review or I am supposed to move it elsewhere for review? Thank you very much for your help.

Sampf Sampf (talk) 18:28, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Sampf (talk) 18:28, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sampf. To submit it for review, click the blue "Resubmit" button in the pink box at the top of the draft. Before you do so, note that the issues raised in the March 2017 review have not been adequately addressed. The five inline citations (one of which is to Wikipedia, which is not a reliable source) support, at best, 15% of the draft. If you can't cite a reliable published source for something, remove it. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:47, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

22:45:05, 4 December 2018 review of draft by NadyaK96


Hello, Can you help me how to improve the article submission? I recently published a page under a name "Exclusive PR Solutions" and it was declined. The reason provided was that the submission appeared to be more like an advertisement and that the submission's references do not quality for Wikipedia article. Could you please elaborate on this problem? In my sources, I only cited independent news articles and I never referred to the company's website, so I was really confused when I received a decline. Also, I don't understand why the text is not neutral as I never called an audience to use the services of this company and only used information found in the news articles and press releases. I have no paid interest in the subject

Thank you very much for your help. NadyaK96 (talk) 22:45, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lumoscoco the draft is in the queue to be reviewed, it may take some time. I took a quick look at some of the references, you seem to have put your own "description" where the article title should be, please use the exact same title as published by the source. For example your reference 6, from the Hindustan Times, the actual title of the article is "Justice Ahluwalia, nine others take oath as Punjab and Haryana high court judges". Go through the draft and check all your references for such errors. The references should include full details such as dates, authors, etc. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 17:36, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I tried adding another source for my colleague, Anne McCabe who I am trying to create this page for. I'm confused why the two sources I added aren't sufficient to prove that Anne McCabe is an active working editor in film and TV.

17:44:07, 6 December 2018 review of submission by Jsayer94


I noticed the page I created for The London School of architecture was classified as "Start" class. Could I be given further clarification on how to improve this submission and which (type) of sources and references are not considered reliable? What could be improved with the structure if so and what further information should be disclosed?

Jsayer94 (talk) 17:44, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jsayer94. Now that London School of Architecture is in article space, it is no longer in the scope of Articles for creation; we reviewers must turn our attention to the hundreds of other drafts that come in every day.
There's nothing wrong with being start-class. The shades of difference from start-class through B-class may be important to people editing the article, but are less important to the broader community than knowing simply that it's better than stub-class and not as good as GA. Consequently, the reviewer may not have spent a lot of time weighing the initial rating.
Because of your conflict of interest, please don't edit the article directly. Instead, propose any changes on its talk page. Any number of editors may pitch in and edit the article mercilessly, so it may improve without you doing anything at all.
The quality scale has general advice on how articles move up the ladder. I've left a basket of links on your talk page that may give you ideas about improvements to suggest, or how to improve some of our 5.7 million other articles, most of which need just as much work. Spending time editing a variety of articles is one of the best ways to get ideas for betterments. Related projects, such as WikiProject London and WikiProject Schools are another source of advice, as are peer reviews. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:52, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to put in a request for a re-review on the stance of unfair assessment and treatment leading to the rejection on this draft page. Once person should not have the ability to reject an article based on their personal judgment and bias of whether or not an article is worthy of inclusion or notability. If possible can @AngusWOOF who had commented on this article previously take a look at how it can be improved. Best regards. Peace Love and Happiness to all.

Request on 19:04:22, 6 December 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Adicterow



Hi all, I'm having a lot of trouble getting my article published. I believe I have sufficient articles/proof but I keep getting rejected with little specific help as to how to fix any issues. The article in question is on Anne McCabe.

Many thanks!

Adicterow (talk) 19:04, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Adicterow. Of the draft's four sources, Studio Daily and Script Magazine are interviews – McCabe in McCabe's own words with little or no analysis by the interviewer. As such, they lack independence. Basically, talking about oneself doesn't make one notable. Manhattan Edit Workshop is a capsule bio supplied by McCabe, so also not independent. IMDb is user-generated, so not a reliable source (and therefore not something that can demonstrate notability either).
My own searches found another one-page interview in Emmy Magazine and a couple sentences about her in a Cinemaeditor article on a panel discussion in which she participated. The latter is the best source available, but falls far short of significant coverage. Your conflict of interest may blind you to this, but the inescapable conclusion is that the topic is not suitable for a Wikipedia article. --Worldbruce (talk) 20:37, 6 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Since my article was rejected I have tried my best trying to understand and study the guidelines. I’m still not quite sure why it was rejected. But I have however updated the article with more content, links, and references that I could find. There’s probably a lot more to add, but since I am still learning I take one step at a time:)

I would really appreciate if you would review it once more, and maybe help me out if there is still things you consider missing, or could be better.

Thank you for your time. Cheers!

Hello,

All of the sources I have provided are independent of the subject of the page. I am not sure which in particular is causing the denial.

Please review again.

Hi Ebrebelmusic. You could resubmit the draft, but it would simply be declined again. Referencing rawartists, centraltrack, and afropunk does not help. Throw away all three. Look for non-interview significant coverage in any three of the reliable sources listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources. If such coverage is not found, then the topic is not suitable for Wikipedia. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:39, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ruchika Daga, It's not about being a celebrity, Wikipedia topics should be notable per WP:GNG and similar guidelines (the WP:N ones). Her draft is way too promotional with a lot of buzzwords which even if the sources were enough, it still wouldn't be accepted due to being promotional.

09:43:26, 7 December 2018 review of draft by Nicholas Eastop - Scenkonstmuseet


Hello! I'm asking for help with a draft article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Jens_Bj%C3%B8rn-Larsen I'm perplexed that an individual I feel to be highly notworthy and deserving of documentation is rejected as "not notworthy". Mr. Björn Larsen is possibly the most famous tubist in the world - merely winning the Geneva competition (a staggering achievement) puts him in the top rank of international musicians let alone tubists... He is a member of (according to the BBC) "the best chamber orchestra in the world", The Chamber Orchestra of Europe. He has recorded a number of solo CDs, of which I've only listed one so far, and teaches at two extremely respected conservatories. I am deeply saddened that the wikipedia editors consider him unnoteworthy and can only put it down to a narrow world view and lack of understanding of the milieu of classical music. I assume in there view that there is nothing a mere tubist, not even the best in the world, can do to become notworthy - it is simply not possible?

Nicholas Eastop - Scenkonstmuseet (talk) 09:43, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not exactly, Nicholas Eastop - Scenkonstmuseet – we do have articles (though not necessarily very good ones) on most of the best-known tuba players: Roger Bobo, Carol Jantsch, Harvey Phillips, Øystein Baadsvik, Howard Johnson, for example. What you need to do for Jens Bjørn-Larsen is to show that he is notable by the standards of Wikipedia, by finding independent reliable sources which cover his achievements and abilities in depth; as far as I can see, there is not one of those in your draft. The sources must support the text: you say, for example, that Bjørn-Larsen won the Concours de Genève in 1991, but his name is not present on the page you link to, or indeed (apparently) anywhere on that website; searching laureates for 1991 + tuba gets one hit, Øystein Baadsvik (that could be the fault of the website). I note that – unlike Phillips, Bobo, Johnson and a good number of other tuba players, Bjørn-Larsen does not have an article in Grove – but then neither does Jantsch or Baadsvik. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 11:18, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply Justlettersandnumbers (talk) I added a link to the wikipedia page listing the winners of the Geneva competition, is this acceptable? One has to search the Geneva competition's own website, I do not know how to link to a search or search result - I too searched https://www.concoursgeneve.ch/section/laureates/search_laureates/ and found JBL straight away as the 1991 winner. Baadsvik came second. Baadsvik has a lot of links to CD's, would a more complete list of JBL's recordings be sufficient to indicate noteworthiness? Would you not say his collaboration with manufacturers B&S on an instrument that bears his name is an indication of his noteworthiness? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nicholas Eastop - Scenkonstmuseet (talk • contribs) 15:27, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Wikipedia team, I hope you are fine. I feel lost, because it seems that the page I wrote is wrong. I put more than 42 references (reliable references). Could you help me ? Hope not to disturb you too much.$$ Sincerely yours.

Leonardoamico (talk) 12:39, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Leonardoamico - From the responses the reviewers have given you, it looks as though they are not only worried about the references, but also the layout. You need to remove all external links in the body of the text. The article seems to just go into details about his hobbies, and such, and is very promotional. Wikipedia articles (specifically Biographies) need to be written from a neutral perspective.
Wikipedia's inclusion criteria is very specific about how subjects are deemed notable, and that is that independent reliable source talk about the subject in depth, and not just a list of sources talking about where the subject has worked.
I hope this is helpful, please {{ping}} me if you need more information. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 15:36, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It has received US and UK Patents (numbers mentioned in the draft) for the eNlight cloud’s vertical scaling technology and its Wikipedia page is also there as earlier referenced in this new draft. Okay, I got to know that another Wikipedia article's reference is not valid so I have removed that but, the other link references given are from reliable sources as observed in other published articles. I have seen the pages of Ctrl S, Amazon AWS, and Microsoft’s Azure too and took cues from that. I’m really not able to figure out what is lacking. Kindly explain in detail.

Hi There I am a little confused why this was declined, it's taken a while for me to get back to this due to other committments. I have based writing this article from looking at another page for Carl Reader. It has the same type of links and text.

This article describes a concept called a "smart token" introduced in the bancor whitepaper. However, it is written in a platform-agnostic way, only using the word "bancor" when citing a particular implementation as an example (such as in the formulas for price calculation). It was removed with a comment that it is "more cryptospam." It was not explained how the article is in violation of wikipedia's general sanctions. The general sanctions do not give carte blanch ability to scrub all crypto topics. I believe the article was removed unfairly by a biased editor. Maxlysle (talk) 22:40, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This page was the subject of a deletion years ago by an editor who has since been banned. I did a draft after Sara got in the Hall of Fame. It was rejected by an editor who considered the prior history. That editor is now gone. Sara Jay is in the adult Hall of Fame. If there is one standard in the adult industry for notable.. it is that. It is not as if she has not fame in her own industry. Here are the standards all of which she qualifies for. She's been in mainstream media, is well known an a member of hall of fame. What am I missing here? Have I messed up the citations somehow? If my citations aren't enough, those can be easily fixed. If the draft is never going to be accepted no matter what she does, I guess I'd like to know so I don't waste time.

Pornographic actors and models Shortcuts 

   WP:PORNBIO
   WP:PORNSTAR

The following criteria are relevant only to people involved in pornography (and should not be raised with regard to actors and models outside the pornography industry): 

   The person has won a well-known and significant industry award. Awards in scene-related and ensemble categories are excluded from consideration.
   The person has made unique contributions to a specific pornographic genre, such as beginning a trend in pornography; starring in an iconic, groundbreaking or blockbuster feature; or being a member of an industry hall of fame such as the AVN Hall of Fame, XRCO Hall of Fame or equivalent.
   The person has been featured multiple times in notable mainstream media.

Ilovepitts (talk) 11:57, 8 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User:Ilovepitts - There has been considerable discussion of whether there should be articles about this person, with four deletion debates, three of which concluded that she is not notable, and that the articles should be deleted. The most recent is Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sara Jay (4th nomination). On the one hand, no amount of improving the citations will change that. A decision has already been made. On the other hand, it appears that you are saying that the deletion decision should be revisited or reviewed. The procedure for doing that in Wikipedia is Deletion Review. Trying to rework the draft will be a waste of your time and ours unless you go to Deletion Review first. That is what you should do. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:45, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, help desk, thanks for considering my question. I submitted an article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Don_Morris) that was declined on October 30 for the following reason: "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). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia."

My question is more a request for clarification. Is it that the article does not contain enough secondary sources? If so, can I ask if newspaper articles that document the article's subject and his activities would qualify as secondary sources. I had hoped that the article contained enough secondary sources.

Hi guys

I tried to ad a new page for the Bravo TV show 'Get a Room with Carson and Thom', though it seems it was rejected.

I know this is my first attempt, so please excuse my probably inexcusable ignorance, but I'm not sure what I've done here that doesn't meet guidelines.

Being my first attempt, I truly welcome anyone's feedback, including instructions on how I might add a page for a TV show that follows guidelines.

Thanks people. I love all of your work, of course ;-).

Shane Shane Chambers (talk) 09:55, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Shane Chambers. There is much to master in order to successfully create a new article. The welcome basket of links left on your talk page provides excellent starting points. For writing about TV shows, you'll want to thoroughly understand notability (the criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia).

05:23:00, 9 December 2018 review of submission by 119.92.15.205

Excuse me, Draft:AMKTech Versions needs some reliable sources. On which way should I be able to get resources? 119.92.15.205 (talk) 12:25, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Generally speaking, reliable sources can be found among books, articles, and news reports. A library is a good place to find such resources. If no such independent sources can be found, Wikipedia should not have an article on the subject. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:54, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sudesh tomar13 Editors may create a user page containing limited autobiographical information for the purpose of collaboration with other editors. If that was what you were trying to do with User:Sudesh tomar13/sandbox, then you do not need to post the content here or submit it for review. Simply write at User:Sudesh tomar13.
It is draft articles that need to be submitted for review before being published as encyclopedia articles. If that is what your sandbox submission was intended as, then please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). --Worldbruce (talk) 04:25, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How do I save my draft? Sportscaptain (talk) 19:12, 9 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sportscaptain. Click the blue "Publish page" button at the bottom left (see Help:Editing for an illustration and more information). Once the page exists, the button will be titled "Publish changes". It means "save"; what is saved is still a draft, it isn't published to article space. --Worldbruce (talk) 02:30, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please return Company B 6th Florida Infantry to "Draft". If it was submitted by me for posting, the error was mine; the posted version has also been stripped of biographical sketches.

23:38:18, 9 December 2018 review of draft by Fortriudavid


Incorrectly recorded date format for downloading web sources - not sure how to resolve that. Numerous references to same publication but differing pages - appreciate how best to correct that

Hi Fortriudavid. Don't use ordinals with dates on Wikipedia. In other words, access-date=26 November 2018, not access-date=26th November 2018. See MOS:DATES for more information. --Worldbruce (talk) 02:16, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

03:22:01, 10 December 2018 review of draft by Aashnasidhu


Hi I have given one website link "NTFF" , which is a dead link now.There was a website with this name 6 months back and they have published the results for Norway tamil short film festival. I have given the link for this website so that the artist name "Jayaditya kang" can be verified from the website's list of awardees. Jayaditya kang won best child artist award in this festival for his short film childhood diaries. But looks like the website is deleted or expired as some error 404 displays when ever i click the link to website. I have couple of questions.

1. should i remove the website ref link from the article "Jayaditya Kang" ?

2.For verification of the award results , Norway tamil film festival has a wikipedia page . The complete list of awardees is mentioned in the said page. Should i give this wikipedia page link for reference?

Thanks.:) Aashnasidhu (talk) 03:22, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Aashnasidhu (talk) 03:22, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Aashnasidhu. Do not cite Wikipedia, it is not a reliable source (neither are IMDb or Wikiwand). Do not remove the website ref link just because it is dead (404). See Wikipedia:Link rot for how to bring the link back to life. Consider, however, whether a (non-notable?) award that is only mentioned by the awarding organization and the awardee is worth mentioning in an encyclopedia biography. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:42, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Malek404 (talk) 05:11, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Malek404. This is the fifth time you've posted here in the past few weeks, but you have never asked a question. Draft:Shahan Kabondho fails to show that he is notable (that he satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion in the encyclopedia).
Sometimes this can be fixed by finding significant, independent coverage in reliable sources. The Daily Star and Dhaka Tribune are reliable sources, but the cited articles contain only passing mentions of Kabondho, not in-depth coverage. Other times all you can do is wait a few years and see if by then more has been written about the subject. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:59, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
