Your sandbox

Hello, Razvan! I saw your note on someone else's talk page, asking why your sandbox was deleted. It looks as if you were trying to write an article there, about a professor. That is the only thing you have done here at Wikipedia - trying to write something about him. I have to ask, do you have some kind of relationship to him? Or are you being paid to write about him? I might have some suggestions about how you can do that without it getting deleted. You can answer me here; I will see it. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:14, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@MelanieN: Hello! My name is Razvan ONOFREI and I work in the IT and human resources department of the University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest (the largest technical university in Romania). My attempt to create a WIKIPEDIA page for Professor Gheorghe MARIA represents the beginning of a personal initiative to make known in the WIKIPEDIA environment the scientific activity of some great personalities of the Romanian academic life at my university. I have no personal relationship with Professor Gheorghe MARIA and I was not paid by him for this project (as I said, this is a voluntary activity). I and Professor MARIA work in different sections of the university (which are on different campuses). As I before said I work in the administrative section of the university (in information technology issues) while Professor MARIA works at the Faculty of Applied Chemistry and Materials Science. I knew him as well as other members of this faculty because I was assigned the task of managing the website of this faculty. The decision to contribute to WIKIPEDIA is due to the fact that I am an information technology, computers, internet, web etc. enthusiast and, of course, a great admirer of WIKIPEDIA, the platform to which I would be very pleased to bring my contribution. The decision to write in WIKIPEDIA articles about scientific personalities from my university is due to the personal finding that Romanian scientists (in general but also those from my university) and their achievements are not sufficiently promoted in the online environment, as they should . I made the decision to start my project with Professor MARIA because he is probably the member with the most consistent (absolutely impressive) scientific activity of Faculty of Applied Chemistry and Materials Science, but also because he is one of the few teachers from the university who is also a member of the Romanian Academy. In these circumstances, being new to the WIKIPEDIA environment and thus prone to making involuntary mistakes, I ask for your support in my effort to achieve what I have presented above! With many thanks! Razvan.ONOFREI (talk) 17:16, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Razvan. I'm sorry I missed this note originally. I have taken a look at the deleted page, and I think there is a good chance that Professor Maria will qualify for an article here. However, I can see why the draft you wrote was deleted: it was not written like an encyclopedia article. It was too full of praise for the professor, too much what we call WP:PUFFERY; you even included personal wishes to him. An encyclopedia article needs to be a neutral description of what he has done. To see how to write such an article, here are some examples: Vintilă Ciocâlteu, Mihail Șerban (biochemist), Lumír Krejčí, Franc Gubenšek. I suggest you create an page using the title Draft:Gheorghe Maria. By labeling it a draft (practice page), you should be able to take your time writing it until it is ready to move into the main encyclopedia. Keep the tone neutral and factual. Be sure not to directly copy and paste anything from your sources; rewrite what they say in your own words. I am going to be out of town for a while, but see what you can do. There is plenty of help available; if you have questions, see the two welcome notices here on your page. -- MelanieN (talk) 21:51, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

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

This needs substantial cleanup.

There is too much information in the infobox (e.g. the Alma mater section should just contain the name of the universities, not a full description of his education
The prose of the article would need substantial copyediting

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gheorghe Maria (August 17)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Reads like an advert to me.
