Hello, JAB61! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:55, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for the message. I finished my first article and am trying to publish or submit for review (or whatever happens next). I followed a YouTube video that said to Move it, which I did. But it doesn't seem like anything happened. When I use Google to search my article (search: Hurco Companies Inc. wikipedia) nothing comes up. Am I just waiting for someone to review it? Thanks. Joe JAB61 (talk) 16:47, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

This article is nowhere near ready to be published. Far too much of the content is unreferenced, and the sources cited do not establish notability. I can either move it back to drafts, or propose that it is deleted — which would you prefer?

The reason why it's not showing up on Google searches is because it hasn't been patrolled yet (and when it will be, it will almost certainly either be deleted or moved back to drafts, not marked as patrolled, anyway).

For future reference, you will find all the advice you need on editing Wikipedia on Wikipedia. There is no need to find a YouTube video, which probably gives you wrong advice anyway... as indeed it seems to have done here.

Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:18, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Thank you very much for the reply. Please move it back to drafts so I can work to improve it. May I also ask if there is a source to help me understand specifically what needs to be referenced and what doesn't? (And why the sources cited are unsatisfactory?) Thank you kindly - JAB61

P.S. I should also say that I work for the company that the article is about. What do I need to do to disclose that? JAB61 (talk) 00:31, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I had draftify the article as it came up on my patrol per the discussion here and noted on the edit summary also. For declaration of COI, please see the below notice by DoubleGrazing and follow the instructions as per below. Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 01:14, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, JAB61. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Hurco Companies Inc., you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:19, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hurco Companies Inc. moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Hurco Companies Inc., is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Hurco Companies Inc. (July 10)

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

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 organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please see WP:NOTDIRECTORY. What makes this WP:MILL corporation notable? Since you are paid to edit here please find that our and make it part of the draft before resubmitting it

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Hurco Companies Inc. and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Hurco Companies Inc., click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.

Hello, thank you for your recent review of my article "Hurco Companies Inc." I am new to Wikipedia and am doing my best to learn and understand all of the requirements. I have a question for you about WP:MILL. Many other very similar companies such as Makino, DMG Mori Seiki Co., Yamazaki Mazak Corporation, Haas Automation, Hardinge Inc, and Matsuura Machinery all have Wikipedia pages and do the same thing (make machine tools) as Hurco Corporation (and have very similar citations - or in some cases none at all). What am I doing wrong? Thank you. JAB61 (talk) 13:00, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
