02:24:27, 18 March 2015 review of submission by Sokolo11[edit]


I received this message: "Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Basis function instead."

However, I submitted from my sandbox page and assumed that I was indeed editing the Basis function page. I am trying to understand why it is appearing as if I am trying to create a new page instead of editing the Basis page like I intend. Sokolo11 (talk) 02:24, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Sokolo11: The Basis function article was created in 2002, long before you started editing your draft in your sandbox. Instead of creating a new page, you can either directly edit Basis function using the "Edit" tab in the upper right of the page or you can propose changes at Talk:Basis function. --Ahecht (TALK

@QUSRAAFCAF: You don't have to wait for the original reviewer to return. If you want someone else to review your draft, you just need to paste {{subst:submit}} at the top of your page and save it.
You can find a list of files you've uploaded to commons at https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AListFiles&user=QUSRAAFCAF&ilshowall=1 --Ahecht (TALK

14:33:42, 18 March 2015 review of submission by Lalehfarrah[edit]

I don't understand why this was denied specifically. I rewrote this once and references many externals sources. Can you please provide some specifics about what is wrong with it? The denial said it reads like an advertisement, but I don't agree with that at all. I'm not sure how to change it so it doesnt. I've looked at all the companies like ours and they follow this exact same format and are approved. Please help me understand how to fix this. Thank you!!

@Lalehfarrah: You have not shown that DataSphere Technologies meets the standards of WP:CORP. You would need to add citations to significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article. List or directory entries on Deloitte or crunchbase are not considered significant coverage, and neither are coverage of routine transaction announcements. Reprints of press releases are not considered independent. --Ahecht (TALK
