[edit]
Please tell me what I need to do to edit this wikipedia page for acceptance. I felt as if I wrote it in accordance to the guidelines, and provided any and all necessary links.

@Natalie White Artist:, the relevant policy in your case is WP:NARTIST. To start with, you need to demonstrate that you are notable (I assume the article is about you) according to Wikipedia policies. In your case, you need to either add reliable sources demonstrating that your work is indeed held in several notable collections, or to demonstrate your work has been sufficiently covered by notable media. The article does not have a good structure (see WP:MOS for some ideas, or just look at articles about other photographers like Imogen Cunningham to see how it should look like), but this is a secondary problem. Also please note that editing of articles about yourself is, whereas not prohibited, is strongly discouraged due to conflict of interest. It would be much better if someone else would edit this article and not you. Best luck.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:43, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Hi. I've submitted this draft (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:MerryMakr_TJ) for a review but I wish to change the page name from "MerryMakr TJ" to just "MerryMakr". Would that be possible? Thanks!

This page was deleted after the image I was submitting to Wiki Commons was rejected. https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File:St._Patrick%27s_Council_Bluffs,_IA_on_Harmony_St..jpg&action=edit&redlink=1
I own the website that I also put it on and was attempting to donate it here too. But if nothing else I would like the to be able to restore the hours of work I put into creating the page, remove the single image that was complained about, and resubmit...
And seriously, could not the image have just been removed and reconsidered for creation automatically. Seems like a horrible process to delete all the work due to a single failure. Makes no sense.

- I have since seen that the text must have been too similar to the original, that I also wrote. Krmarshall (talk) 16:12, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

- @2600:8807:A400:7C:2D06:F0D1:B089:E1A9:, what page is your draft, we can't see it unless you post a link to your draft page. Also, have you read WP:Neologism? It's not enough to just show us that you invented a word, you have to show that other people in serious media/academia are making note of the word, not just that it pops up on Google or is in the title of an Amazon book.

[edit]
Hi there!
I've improved Draft:TopSpeed.com over time, and I feel it's quite close to Wikipedia's standards for being published. The reason it has been declined so far is due to the lack of sufficient in-depth sources talking about the subject, instead of the subject's content. I feel this is a bit hard to find, since the subject is a digital publisher website, and, after checking out other websites in Category:Automotive websites, the sources that talk about them are usually only due to an acquisition/merger or product launch press release.
However, I did manage to find a few sources lately (both about the website and its content), so hopefully it's getting there.
I would appreciate any help in finding any more reliable sources, maybe I'm not that good at searching :) Thanks!

I need help please...

- Hello @Pachisu124:, what is your question? I looked at your draft, and you've provided no WP:Sourcing at all, which is required. I strongly advise you read this 10-second summary of our Notability guideline which your draft must meet to be published. MatthewVanitas (talk) 12:18, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
