07:23:44, 1 April 2015 review of submission by Chrisnb

[edit]


I added some external sources to verify the information in the article. Most of the articles that contain the information are not available or not in print at the moment.

Material published previously can still be used as a source, even if it is not currently in print or available online. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 08:28, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 08:27:25, 1 April 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by Huseynoov

[edit]


Dear editor,

I created a page in Wikipedia. I wrote an article about one of Mathematician in Azerbaujan. I wrote it in Azer Language. But yor team replied that This is the English Language Wikipedia; we can only accept articles written in the English Language. But? I see a lot of articles in wikipedia in different languages suah as Azerbaijani, Turkish etc.

Hi Huseynoov - each language Wikipedia operates separately. The Azerbaijani Wikipedia is at http://az.wikipedia.org - you need to take your article there. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 18:28, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Huseynoov: Please create the page on the Azerbaijani Wikipedia, http://az.wikipedia.org. Worldbruce (talk) 00:03, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 09:38:49, 1 April 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by Drangusmcleod

[edit]


I asked for help in my earlier reply as I have changed over to fotnotes as requested. the second reviewer is again asking for the same thing. Clearly something is wrong but I do not understand what and the posts etc (loinks) provided, and video (youtube) have not helped to understand 1) what really is the problem with my footnotes and 2) what exactly do you want and 3) how!?

I asked last time for an example of how to do this as the information p[rovided is inadequate. i also have no idea whet the information in the pink boxes above mean. 'copy and paste the following code into the header bar'. Where is the header bar?!?

If a human could actually help and advise, I would be grateful. Thank you.

A little bit patronising, that request for a human, don't you think? How lucky I am immune to being patronised and have replied on the draft. A chap of your calibre, judging by the track record you express in your autobiography, really ought to be able to handle this stuff. Ah wait. That was patronising. I apologise.
Now, do consider why you want a page on yourself on Wikipedia? We discourage autobiographies. Generally you are not the best qualified person to rote about yourself because you cannot ever be impartial. How do you know if you are notable, for example? Fiddle Faddle 10:25, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

None of the sources supplied seem to provide significant independent coverage of the company, so the Draft does not currently meet Wikipedia:VRS in my opinion. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 08:27, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
