July 20[edit]
- Gray, Andrew (talk · contribs)
Dear Sir or Madam,
I would welcome confirmation as to whether or not my proposed Article for Creation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Robert_James_Cromie) has been resubmitted for review as a new article.
Yours truly, Andrew Gray

- @Gray, Andrew: I have submitted it on your behalf. You may have had difficulty submitting it yourself because you removed the earlier Articles for Creation reviews, something you should not do (the comment "Do not remove this line!" is a clue). --Worldbruce (talk) 12:42, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
10:34:47, 20 July 2016 review of submission by Merv MC[edit]
What parts should I be looking at to include or not include?Merv MC (talk) 10:34, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Merv MC. The most important things to include are multiple, in-depth, independent, reliable, secondary sources. Wikipedia is user-generated, so it is not a reliable source and should not be used as a reference. You may find it useful to study Sleepy Hollow Country Club, which is an example of a good golf club and course article. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:05, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
12:03:37, 20 July 2016 review of submission by NearEMPTiness[edit]
I have reviewed, improved and moved a draft article to List of longest train services in India. I assessed it keeping WP:NTT in mind, but in this case, I believe that this list is not just copied and pasted from the time table but provides some meaningful information. I cannot find the "approve" button in the relevant template and hope that another Wikipedian will press it on my behalf. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 12:03, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

- Hi NearEMPTiness, I'm afraid you've created extra work for other people. 1 You are not a registered reviewer, thus you do not have the required reviewing script tool. 2 The draft author has not yet submitted the draft for review. 3 If it had been submitted in its current state it would have to be declined as there are no WP:INDEPENDENT WP:RELIABLE SOURCES cited in the draft, thus it does not yet pass WP:NOTABILITY. -- Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 17:40, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, I noted my mistake and your very helpful actions. Sorry for having caused unnecessary work. --NearEMPTiness (talk) 17:42, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- @NearEMPTiness, if you're interested, please take a good long look at the Reviewing instructions and let us know if you think you're up to helping newbies write articles. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:01, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
20:44:55, 20 July 2016 review of submission by RobbieIanMorrison[edit]
Hello AfC helpdesk
I submitted this page on 12 July 2016 and everything seemed to go smoothly.
However I note that the page no longer has an awaiting review notification and the resubmit button is now prominent.
Can you please confirm that this page is in the queue? Or do I need to resubmit it?
Many thanks in advance.

- Hi RobbieIanMorrison, the page history does not show a resubmition on 12 July, you have however done a number of edits since the previous review on 6 July. So, yes, you do need to hit that blue button. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 23:13, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
- Many thanks for the quick reply. I have just resubmitted the article as you suggested. RobbieIanMorrison (talk) 23:19, 20 July 2016 (UTC)
