01:02:06, 27 July 2015 review of submission by Dpaulbick

[edit]

Unsure why submission rejected. What can be done to improve it? Perhaps it should be part of some other section? the personal genomics section? or genetic testing? At present the cost of sequencing a genome is not the most important barrier to widespread adoption, it is the analysis of variants and genes. Dpaulbick (talk) 01:02, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

As written, the article is unclear, because it isn't until the end that we can figure out what you are talking about. The term must be defined in the first paragraph. Background about genetic sequencing is not needed--just link to the relevant articles. And make sure nothing is copied from any of them. It also seem the other terms for variants listed at the end of the "history " section need articles, or you could write the article for them all together, as " genetic variant terminology", or something of the sort. Ask me to re-review when ready. DGG ( talk ) 04:20, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

08:35:17, 27 July 2015 review of submission by Jleigh456

[edit]

I have made the requested improvements, i.e. provided the names of articles talking about MedAccred, the dates they were published on and the names of publications. But still the draft has been declined for the same reason as before, despite the changes i made.Could you please indicate what exactly is missing in the draft and stops it from being accepted. Many thanks. Jleigh456 (talk) 08:35, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have left a comment o the draft for you to consider. Fiddle Faddle 14:58, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please ask your question. Fiddle Faddle 14:59, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I have posted some advice, a few sources and an offer of further assistance to Puertorican52's talk page but have not yet had a response. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 17:53, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 16:00:24, 27 July 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by GDMT NY

[edit]


THE ARTICLE WE ARE WRITING HAS BEEN DECLINE FOR AN APPARENT USED OF TWO DIFFERENT personalities without clear referencing. We would like to add the bio of only one of our artists Daniel Daviau to whom we added references. Do we need to eliminate any word or name, if so, tell us which one.. Merci


GDMT NY (talk) 16:00, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What you need to do is to add references. For a living person we have a high standard of referencing. Every substantive fact you assert, especially one that is susceptible to potential challenge, requires a citation with a reference that is about them, and is independent of them, and is in WP:RS, and is significant coverage. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources.
You will also need to submit the draft for review. You can do this by placing {{subst:submit}} at the head of the draft when you are ready.
I see no evidence that this has been decline previously. Fiddle Faddle 18:13, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 19:52:58, 27 July 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by Ufgenetics

[edit]


Hello– my draft was rejected for relying almost entirely on primary sources. I don't understand why this is a problem, or what kind of sources would be better.

Ufgenetics (talk) 19:52, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps the reviewer might have left more information. I have left what I hope is a useful comment on the draft. Wikipedia cannot, except in certain circumstances, make use of primary sources. We record what others have reported already. Fiddle Faddle 20:18, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]



But pages from other departments from this same university have been accepted, and some of them only have a single reference, and it it to a webpage from that university.

@Ufgenetics: Wikipedia is forever a work in progress. It contains both high quality content and low quality content. The fact that bad articles exist is not an excuse for creating more bad articles, see Wikipedia:Other stuff exists. If you learn from existing articles, be sure to learn from Wikipedia's best: featured articles and good articles. Except for law schools and medical schools, individual schools / divisions / faculties / departments / centers / institutes / etc. within a university rarely satisfy the notability criteria.

[edit]


{{SAFESUBST:Void|

FIRST TELL US WHY YOU ARE REQUESTING A RE-REVIEW ON THE LINE BELOW THIS LINE. I revised my article again on July 10. No word yet. I have taken out half the original document at this point. I believe all my remaining statements are adequately referenced. Please tell me what I need to do now to get this article posted.

Katsheron (talk) 20:39, 27 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I imagine it will be reviewed when someone who feels competent to review it sees it and chooses to do it. There is no deadline here. We are all volunteers. Fiddle Faddle 06:52, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, there is no reason to review the draft. You have not resubmitted it for review. You also need to understand referencing. Please read WP:CITE and WP:REFB. You were not asked to take out half the draft. You were asked to provide citations. Please do so and resubmit it when you are ready to do so. Fiddle Faddle 06:55, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
