Notice If you're here about an article that I declined/rejected please read these quick rules first...or you might be ignored.

1) Post new sections at the bottom of the page. You can do this by clicking the "New Section" tab near the top of the page.

2) PLEASE LINK TO YOUR ARTICLE, I go through a myriad of pages a day, I won't know what you're talking about unless you link your article.

3) Please do not just ask "why did you decline my article?". The answer is given in the decline message on the draft. If you need clarification beyond that, or have questions about the linked policies then please ask away.

4) Please don't request me to re-review your article unless I've specifically asked you to do so. If you feel it's fixed then resubmit. AfC is incredibly backlogged and someone will get to it when they can. This can take 3 months or more.

I welcome anyone to comment or reply to others on my page, but please be kind and if their post breaks one of the above four rules, please ignore them as well.

AIC draft

Hi Sulfurboy. I've read your comments on my talk page and I believe I've actioned your request properly. Could you possibly confirm? Swright-aic (talk) 15:43, 15 May March 2020 (AEST)


Dear SulfurBoy,

Thank you so much for promptly reviewing my Afc: Lilian Ajayi-Ore; and most importantly, for your professional feedback why the afc was declined due to 'peacock' terms. I have reworked the article and re-posted it for another review. Keep up the good job! Best Regards, Ozonyiawiki (talk) 10:24, 27 May 2020 (UTC) Ozonyiawiki[reply]

Straight Talk Wireless Draft Rejection

Hi Sulfurboy,

Apologies to be having this conversation again, but I submitted an article for review, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Straight_Talk_Wireless, and it was rejected again for reading like an advertisement. If you're willing to discuss, I'd love to know how we can improve the page. I'm sure you noticed that I made significant updates to the page in an effort make it more neutral and less of an incentive to readers, removing details on how to purchase and activate service, removing price details and removing claims that TracFone is the largest prepaid service provider. I also added sources to corroborate the information included. As you know, I've been asked to create this page as part of my job, so I just want to see that page go live however possible. I don't expect this page to sneak by reading like an advertisement, and our client understands that as well. I genuinely thought the page adhered to guidelines much better than previous attempts. So, I'd appreciate any guidance on how to improve the page.

Take care, Frank FrankWS875 (talk) 14:20, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

FrankWS875, You didn't remove details about how to purchase the service. It's literally mentioned in the second sentence of the article. The article has been CSD'd twice now and rejected which means it will not be considered further at this time. As already advised in the stern warning on your talk page, continuing to attempt to use Wikipedia for advertising will likely lead to you being outright banned from the site. Please stop. I would advise reporting back to your employer that you all need to do a better job of understanding our policies first before attempting to participate in black hat SEO/paid editing. Sulfurboy (talk) 19:05, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sulfurboy, I understand, and I appreciate the time you took to review the page again. Hopefully, I can reestablish good faith. 16:05, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Animal Products in Pharmaceuticals, Updated page

Dear Sulfurboy,

In regards to the animal products in pharmaceuticals page, [1] I have made all of the changes you suggested and want to move forward with the article. Specifically, I added insulin and premarin to the active ingredients section, added a definition of pharmaceuticals to the first paragraph, added three citations about the relationship between animal products in pharmaceuticals to various religious, ethical, and cultural, groups, and made other edits inline with your suggestions. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to get this article approved. This is a notable topic that is part of public and scientific discourse and should be part of Wikipedia as well. I am interested in hearing your thoughts on next steps to move this article forward.

Regards,

Skubydoo (talk) 01:01, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Skubydoo, I've approved the article. There's a small chance of blowback, but I think you've done enough to keep it neutral and scientifically backed. Cheers. Sulfurboy (talk) 02:27, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sulfurboy, Thanks for your edits and feedback to "Michael Sempert."

I had meant to completely remove the discogs, wiki and imdb on the last pass, but somehow my changes didn't stick. My apologies for that. At this point all the citations are either magazines (including music blogs), newspapers or online tracking databases (Tunefind, Whatsong, Songkick) which I believe would fall under "e-commerce." Thanks in advance for your help with the page.

Don't forget to move articles with unnecessary disambiguators

Hey, I came across Al-Najm al-Thaqib (missile) and saw that you had reviewed it. Since we don't have any other articles by this title, you should have moved it to Al-Najm al-Thaqib as part of your review. I've gone ahead and done it so there's no need for further action on your part. signed, Rosguill talk 18:47, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for Creation: List of reviewers by subject notice

Hi Sulfurboy, you are receiving this notice because you are listed as an active Articles for Creation reviewer.

Recently a list of reviewers by area of expertise was created. This notice is being sent out to alert you to the existence of that list, and to encourage you to add your name to it. If you or other reviewers come across articles in the queue where an acceptance/decline hinges on specialist knowledge, this list should serve to facilitate contact with a fellow reviewer.

To end on a positive note, the backlog has dropped below 1,500, so thanks for all of the hard work some of you have been putting into the AfC process!

Sent to all Articles for Creation reviewers as a one-time notice. To opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page. Regards, Sam-2727 (talk)

Draft Article: Talitha Espiritu

Hi sulfurboy, I just created a draft page for talitha espiritu. Her name appears on many articles discussing Ferdinand Marcos's martial law in the Philippines. I think the gathered sources are reliable. Is there any other way to prove her notability?

Request on 16:29:57, 28 May 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Vanitaapplebum


Hi. I am reaching out to ask about the Bashiri Asad draft that was declined. I would like clarification on the resources I provided for this article. Soul Tracks, Afropunk.com, Nuvo, Post and Courier, Indianapolis Recorder and WFYI are all independent media sources with reporters on staff. Please explain further. I would like to figure out how to fix it. Vanitaapplebum (talk) 16:29, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Vanitaapplebum (talk) 16:29, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Vanitaapplebum, If you want to use external links to establish notability then they need to be properly incorporated as references. All media sources have "reporters on staff", that doesn't demonstrate notability. Soul Tracks is basically a blog site, it's nice to use a reference, but does very little to establish notability.

Rejected Draft:British Nuclear Medicine Society: Reason WP:SIGCOV

Hello, Three pints

1. I think this button on your talk page "Click here to start a new topic" is having some technical issue. I tried to post a message couple of times; however, it only got published once in the middle of the post. I think it got deleted by yourself as it did not follow the rules listed on this page.

2. Thanks for rejecting the Draft:British Nuclear Medicine Society  Courtesy link: Draft:British Nuclear Medicine Society. I have updated the page and would be thankful if you can have a casual look and suggest if it addresses the WP:SIGCOV issue, or if needs more work?

3. This article on EANM has only 10 references and is successfully published on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Association_of_Nuclear_Medicine. My article on BNMS is very similar, with over 40 references.

Thanks Earthianyogi (talk) 10:48, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Earthianyogi, Looks as if this has been moved to mainspace by a fellow editor. Let me know if you have further questions. Sulfurboy (talk) 08:49, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I hope you are doing well. I need some help for Draft:Ahmed Emara which you had shifted to a draft. Could you help me correct the errors in it.

Kindly waiting for your reply.

Thank YouTerminatorwil (talk) 16:47, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Terminatorwil, Please see WP:BUILDER. Fixing your article is your responsibility. If you have questions about specific policies then I am happy to help with that. Sulfurboy (talk) 08:48, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

NZ music history rejection

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.



I can't for the life of me understand your logic in rejecting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Universal_Music_New_Zealand Notability: it's the largest record company in New Zealand by a large margin and its catalogue includes much of the nation's musical legacy, which is the subject of a substantial reissue program. It really matters and seems to clearly fit the notability provisions of Wikipedia per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(organizations_and_companies). It is also directly responsible for the biggest selling female act in the world in 2015, Lorde.

This history and the importance of this company is supported by a multitude of independent links that include Billboard magazine, NZ company records, and multiple specific mentions in http://www.AudioCulture.co.nz links. AudioCulture is the definitive history of New Zealand music, funded by the NZ Govt, and the work on that site come from the nation's leading music historians, all acting independently. It doesn't get any more authoritative and yet you state "Zero standalone notability established" which is simply untrue. Perhaps it's intentional but this does feel like at best a cursory rejection without any real oversight. Perhaps talk to some of the NZ Music taskforce on Wiki who will explain why you are wrong. In NZ music terms it truly does not get any more "notable". Snig27 (talk) 08:35, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Snig27, The billboard article does not show WP:SIGCOV of the company and only mentions them in passing. NZ holds records on all incorporated companies, that doesn't make them notable. The audioculture articles talk about HMV and EMI. A company absorbing notable companies does not make the absorbing company notable. Notability cannot be inherited. Any time there is a spinoff article of a company's subsidiary, substantial independent WP:SIGCOV must be shown to pass WP:NCORP. And like I said, zero sigcov is shown. I would recommend reaching out at Talk:Universal Music Group to gain consensus for a spinoff article and seek the help of fellow editors to find better sources. Cheers Sulfurboy (talk) 08:47, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I've reviewed WP:SIGCOV and WP:NCORP and this seems to clearly fit both notability and sigcover per those links. Talk:Universal Music Group are not the right people to talk with as they cover, as you say, subsidiaries and such. This is about a company in a small country that has inherited the vast bulk of the nation's musical legacy and is actively - as in now - preserving and reissuing this catalogue at some cost to the company and using this to create a sense of legacy for NZ's musicians and future generations. It's hard to overstate how important that this is to New Zealanders culturally.

The source (no it wasn't just EMI and HMV pages) is both published and authoritative - it doesn't get any more authoritative and frankly, dismissing this is incredibly culturally insulting for NZ. They show how this catalogue came together and allowed the local branch of the multi-national to undertake this process. Once again, please talk the NZ music taskforce. The UMG is not the right place at all. Thank you. Snig27 (talk) 09:23, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Snig27, Not once is UMG mentioned in the audio culture sources. I get that you think it's notable. I haven't even said that it isn't notable. All I've said is the sources do not demonstrate notability. Instead of working to find better sources, you've instead twice low key accused me of prejudice. I don't have the time or patience to put up with that kind of drama, nor do other editors on wikipedia. Take it elsewhere. Sulfurboy (talk) 11:13, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Back Market2

I have deeply changed Draft:Back Market and put it in Draft:Back Market/2, to avoid a mess between which was the original text and which one is the deeply modified. Can you see it when you can, please?. BoldLuis (talk) 11:35, 31 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

BoldLuis, Please don't create multiple instances of the same article. This can be viewed as disruptive editing. Sulfurboy (talk) 01:58, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
It was not my intention, but to avoid disruptive editing, deleting a lot of text from the original article. If it is OK, I can put the second version instead of the first one. I used the precaution principle. BoldLuis (talk) 02:10, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
BoldLuis, Unfortunately, both instances have been rejected by a fellow editor. As such, they will not be considered further at this time. Please do not continue creating new instances of it. Sulfurboy (talk) 02:17, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have deleted all commercial "advertising" in the original draft. So, it is a completely new version. 02:20, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Upneet Lalli

Hello SulfurBoy, I have read the reasons for the decline of my article on Upneet Lalli. Link to the article is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Upneet_Lalli I agree that the article with links to things the subject has written does not demonstrate notability but other than her published columns from link 5 through 24, the remaining links from 1 through 4 and 28 though 29 and link 31 demonstrate notability of the subject and these are reliable secondary sources. I am a bit new to wiki so if you could help me a bit, it would be sincerely appreciated.

Question about my article

Hey Sulfurboy, thank you for moving my article to Draft:Flighthouse. It has been a while since I've gone through the Articles for Creation process so I appreciate you guiding me through it. I have a question - does the draft look ok to you? I did my best to draft it up but if you have any notes, that would be much appreciated for me to improve my editing skills. Thank you in advance and hope you are staying safe. Grimothy29 (talk) 00:34, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Grimothy29, I haven't reviewed your article. I just moved it to the correct place. Please note that reviews can take up to five weeks. Sulfurboy (talk) 01:57, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your work. Among others you moved the draft Jean Margain by User:Jairon Levid Abimael Caál Orozco to the main space. The article, like so many other drafts by that user, is very problematic, to say the least. In short: The draft should not have been moved to the main space. I have cleaned up the most irrititating mistakes and pseudo-references, yet it is still not a useful contribution to wikipedia and it is said that a person like Margain is in fact dishonoured by such a stub. Have a nice day, --Qumranhöhle (talk) 08:22, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Qumranhöhle, You seem to have a mistaken understanding about AfC. We do not hold back articles for cleanup concerns, particularly when a subject clearly passes an SSG or GNG. Sulfurboy (talk) 08:40, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Probably different language versions may have a different understanding of quality and what should be part of wikipedia and what not. If you think that drafts with pseudo-references that come close to fake references should be part of wikipedia, then we may have a different understanding of wikipedia as well. Have a nice day, --Qumranhöhle (talk) 09:06, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Mike Greenhaus

Thank you for taking the time to review my bio of Journalist Mike Greenhaus, Editor-in-Chief of Relix Magazine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Mike_Greenhaus) I appreciate your feedback You commented that my submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage. However, I provided three (and have since added a fourth) references on the subject from third party independent outlets on the subject I am writing about that were approved as qualifying by another Wikipedia Editor (1292simon) last week. I appreciate your feedback on my article Caryplace7 (talk) 19:15, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Caryplace7, The comments by Chris in the latest review fully encapsulate my ongoing concerns. Sulfurboy (talk) 00:15, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you once again for taking a look at my biography of Journalist Mike Greenhaus, Editor-in-Chief of Relix Magazine (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Mike_Greenhaus) This is my first bio, though I have added references and edit over 100 other articles, so I am still learning how to do this properly. Chris' comments suggested that a majority of the references I cited were by the subject I was writing about when in fact NONE of the links are by him, nor from the magazine he edits (expect the masthead as proof of his current position) The four articles I cited as best references had all been cleared as OK by another editor and are focused specifically on the subject of my bio. In addition, the other articles cite him as an expert reference which according to my research is the type of articles that should be included as proof of notability. I understood I have perhaps too many references; I was trying to balance a mix of articles focused solely on Mr. Greenhaus with citations on his work from larger references. Please let me know how I can improve. Thank you so much Caryplace7 (talk) 01:08, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I was wondering why you considered my page overly promotional.

I made very sure to look at other sites in other countries on this site (Russia, India, Bulgaria, Etc) in order to get a good feel for how the article like this should be written.

As discussed on User talk:Oshwah, I'm not connected with the company. I also made very certain to make everything as detailed as possible through discussion with Yngvadottir when citing things. Is there something else that you don't like?

Hey! I hope you are doing well. I have written the article on an Engineering stream that was taught as an M.Tech course in IIT(ISM), Dhanbad in India.

Rnagfn (talk) 15:15, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rnagfn, Educational programs such as this are almost never notable. If you want to include a bit about it on the school's page that would probably be more appropriate. I don't really have any suggestions as I feel there's virtually no chance of establishing notability to warrant a standalone article. Sulfurboy (talk) 17:11, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
