December 20[edit]

Hi there, I thought I had submitted the article for review successfully, however it still says "Draft article not currently submitted for review." at the top of the page. Could you please confirm whether it has actually been submitted for review? Many thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Text100 (talkcontribs) 00:10, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If a review pending template ({{subst:submit}})isn't already on the page, try bypassing your cache (shift+refresh). If one is, that box is the one reviewers look for, not the "not currently submitted" box. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:18, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Sirs/Madams, Today is the birthday of Maharshi Santsevi Paramhans. So it is my humble request to you to approve the page today - it would be my gift of love to him and millions of his faithful devotees. I honestly didn't know that the space has, of late, become so backlogged that about 2000 requests are already queued for clearance, otherwise i would have certainly undertaken this endeavour sufficiently earlier...i wanted actually to throw this as a surprise & pleasant gift today.

So, I request you that, if possible, the page be kindly allowed to come up today. There is nothing objectionable or controversial in this article. It is a purely spiritual article about a purely spiritual person. I, however, assure you that if anything objectionable is found by the editorial board or review committee, i would surely adhere to all the compliance suggested by the board without any objection - very very shortly i will also insert proper references. I very fervently hope that given the situation my prayer would be considered urgently and granted approval. Thanking you and with best regards! Faithfully yours, Pravesh K.

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Kevin Miller

I am asked to confirm that Kevin Miller does not already exist, How do I do this?

There are a number of Kevin Millers, but none are Kevin Miller the Opera Singer, how do I deal with that?

Kevin is mentioned in a number of other entries, how do I link them to this Article?

We can't help you if we don't know the AfC submission's name. If it's already been deleted because of copyright, then an admin will have to answer this. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 20:50, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Review of DJKAM[edit]

Hi Can someone please help me to accomplish this article, so the note below will dissapear? ("This article may require copy editing for grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling. You can assist by editing it. (November 2013)")

Many thanks & Merry X-Mas P Pati Rojas (talk) 14:58, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The main problem I see is that the second paragraph is all just one very long sentence. Try to break it up into separate statements. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 09:47, 24 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The last time i tried this i was told the article was fine but just needed to change my username. So here I am with the same content, new username and still having problems. What is is this time?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mhallett44 (talkcontribs) 15:37, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, you were more likely than not blocked for username, not for article content. The article has no sources that prove its notability.Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 20:48, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hundreds of people are waiting to add to this biography (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Jim_Nyamu). Thank you for any extra attention you can spare.

I submitted and article about the biography of Judith Cury a young entrepreneur who's pioneering woman's marketing in the Dominican Republic. I submitted her biographical information as well as press about Judith. The article was rejected, I wonder why and what can be done to fix it. Thanks so much in advance. Javier JavierJRDG (talk) 20:53, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your references are malformed. Please read Help:Referencing for beginners. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 21:04, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a few secondary references, and continue to try and improve the bio. The cause of elephant protection and sanctuary is expanding every day, and Jim Nyamu is an integral figure. If there are any other improvements I should make, please specify. Many others are waiting to contribute to this listing. Thank you. Kcroes (talk) 21:51, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have submitted https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Jerusalem_(documentary_film). It's about a new film, it's been written about by the Washington Post and other internationally known news outlets, it is narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch, its executive producer was Jake Eberts. Yet I am told it's not notable. Could someone please explain? Also, it was rejected partly on the grounds that references were clustered. How is this to be avoided when Wiki instructs that statements should be backed up by references? Toysolidier (talk) 23:10, 20 December 2013 (UTC)Toysolidier[reply]

Hello I am trying to submit this page but can't really figure out why it's not being accepted, I have provided references and so on that I think are worthy. Could you please give some pointers?

Many thanks Kiza77 (talk) 23:35, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We do not accept discography sites as sources for the artist themselves, and the other sites you cite are tied to the subject. (Discographies don't discuss the artist, and sources tied to the subject have a strong incentive to lie, whether overtly or by omission.) You need to find third-party sources that discuss the subject and have no connection to it other than they decided to write about them of their own volition. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:36, 21 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
