Ancient Healing on Colors

Dear DrNewYork Please check these pages https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_IMDb and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources -- talk Friday 21 July 2017; 21:18 UTC

Those are good references, with interesting and helpful information. Thank you for sharing them. --DrNewYork (talk) 06:39, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Asking for review and feedback

Hello friend, :) I see you wanted feedback but I myself am unable to do that right now because I am a new wikipedian lol.. but I have noticed that rather than asking in general forums for feedback, if you can ask for feedback to some experienced person directly on their talk page, I think that will work faster and better :) even though it may seem troublesome for some very busy wikipedians but most probably that will avail help faster :) Good luck. :) Red Pen (talk) 23:05, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your help. I very much appreciate it. --DrNewYork (talk) 06:38, 26 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Ancient Healing (July 27)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not satisfying our applied notability standards.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Ancient Healing and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

An extended welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. I've added a welcome message to the top of this page that gives a great deal of information about Wikipedia. I hope you find it useful.

Additionally, I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 17:08, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Ronz - thank you for the welcome message you posted at the top of the page, and the thoughts you shared here. They are both helpful. I'm finding in general that most Wikipedia editors that I have interacted with so far have been able to be very helpful, and the suggestions you offer seem wise. --DrNewYork (talk) 17:26, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, DrNewYork. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Ancient Healing".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Legacypac (talk) 06:33, 12 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
