Request on 06:48:25, 26 November 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by PinkBlueGreenPowder

- Draft:Gigamon (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Latest drafts of the article were declined 1) with a request for more sources, then 2) with the comment "I'm still simply not sure if there's enough in-depth third-party sources overall to fully satisfy companies notability guidelines." Does the article simply need more sources, does it need a different type or quality of source or does it need a re-edit of the existing text to summarize the sources differently?

I see your dilemma. I hope my substantial comment on the draft left just now will prove useful. Fiddle Faddle 15:20, 26 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, its been my first time to try and be apart of the Wikipedia community, of writers, I tried out on the Nalukoola Luyimbazi PROFILING, WITH A WRITE UP, BIOGRAPHY, though it was been denied with a request for more references, my last edit had over 8 more references, to which they seemingly don't seem to have passed the required test, I would be more grateful if am guided on what to do, or even edits are done on the said page thereof,

Thanks Obamandrew 15:02, 26 November 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Obamandrew (talk • contribs)

Sometimes we can bewilder folk with jargon, but I think the latest review is something you need to study. You may find reading WP:42 to be the most helpful. We can always do a full analysis of the existing sources if you feel that would be helpful. It is quite a lot of work, so our preference is not to, but the offer is there.

Would like to include images (.jpg) in the Wikipedia article and have tried to use the "insert picture" tool on the advanced edit tool bar.

. However I can't get it to pick up an image from the local disk (C:\Libaries) and the HTML <img src="filepath" syntax doesn't work either. What's the format / syntax for inserting images? Do the image files have to be in a particular place?

LabelHistorian (talk) 19:16, 26 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You need to use "Upload File" from the left hand menu. Please be aware that the image you upload must be freely licenced for use. The details ought to appear during the upload process. Images with incorrect licences will be deleted, so it is rather important to get it right. This is the most complex area I have found on Wikipedia, and you may need an experienced guide. I fear I am not one. If you need further guidance do, please, come bak here, or deploy {{Helpme}} on your talk page with a very specific request for guidance.
