04:18:50, 24 August 2016 review of submission by Agungkodok[edit]


Hi Daniel Kenneth,

My article for Bakrie & Brothers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Bakrie_%26_Brothers) was declined with the description: "Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Bakrie & Brothers instead."

However, Bakrie & Brothers hasn't existed yet in Wikipedia, when I typed in the title, it redirects me to Bakrie Group (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bakrie_Group). Just wanted to clarify, Bakrie & Brothers is a subsidiary focusing only on Manufacturing & Infrastructure under the Bakrie Group, which compromises of a large variety of businesses (Incl. Oil & Gas, Property, Mining, Telecommunications, etc).

Please re-review this my submission for this article. If there are any extra information required for this article to be published, please let me know.

Thank you very much for your time Daniel. Best, AgungKodok

Hi AgungKodok. A subsidiary of a larger company is highly unlikely to be notable enough for its own article, and we prefer not to split our coverage of closely related subjects across different articles unless absolutely necessary. You should instead expand our article on Bakrie Group. If you do so, the redirect can be altered so it sends people directly to the section dealing on Bakrie & Brothers.

09:15:16, 24 August 2016 review of submission by Dr. Dabby[edit]

Hi, this is Dr. Dabby. I had written and submitted this article. Quite recently, this article was reviewed - and rejected.

I have tried to write this thing in a neutral tone. And have given quite a number of independent, reliable resources.

I even left a message on the talk page of the moderator.

So can anybody give a check to this draft and point out the specifics for which it has been not accepted.

Best regards, Dr. Dabby (talk) 09:15, 24 August 2016 (UTC) Dr. Dabby (talk) 09:15, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dr. Dabby, the draft is "on hold" until the copyright issue is resolved, once that's done we will take another look at it. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 09:28, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 13:20:03, 24 August 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by DCM18395[edit]


Hello, I require help regarding the submission a wikipedia page on an intellectual property firm I have been researching. The article is getting declined due to lack of noteability however I have referenced BBC news, the Scotsman on several occasions, most of which are independent of the company. Why is this not considered notable?

DCM18395 (talk) 13:20, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DCM18395. Apologies for the delay in getting to your question. You are correct that the coverage in the Scotsman shows notability. The draft was written in an overly promotional way (for example, long lists of the services a company sells are not appropriate for an encyclopaedia article) which may have obscured that fact. In any case, I have accepted the article. Joe Roe (talk) 21:16, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

112.198.75.15 (talk) 17:42, 24 August 2016 (UTC) help please. This article is always deleted and i dont know why.Username Footballasia Alagie Ousman Jeng[reply]

Because we already agreed in the discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alagie Ousman Jeng that Jeng is not notable enough to justify an article about him in an encyclopedia. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:19, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
