[edit]

Hi, I've previously requested help at this help desk (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk/Archives/2016_April_21#19:49:47.2C_21_April_2016_review_of_submission_by_Angrylala) and also on on the Reliable sources Noticeboard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_206#Notability_of_Sabrina_Ho) but no one seems to reply me.

Is there something wrong?

I am afraid we need a Chinese speaker willing to look into this issue.--Ymblanter (talk) 19:00, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Can this please be checked over? Is this a notable source now? A new one has been added. - https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/alex-gilbert . Is this draft really still not notable? Coverage has been going on for over 3 years. The comments on the draft are from different times on when these new sources were not present. Can someone who is an experienced editor PLEASE have a look. I mean look at this source http://www.sbs.com.au/topics/life/family/article/2016/03/01/website-could-help-you-find-your-birth-parents-through-social-media . Thank You --DmitryPopovRU (talk) 07:54, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You also asked this question at the Teahouse, and it was answered. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:20, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I want to contribute useful articles to Wikipedia. I am seeking advice from more experienced editors to make this a great article BEFORE I submit it for review.

@Potguru Submitting it for review is how you get advice from experienced editors - that's the whole point of the review process. If you get a review before a review and you're not happy with that review are you then going to then request a review before the review before the review? You see where this is going... Just submit it already. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 18:37, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've corrected the order of the appendices; "References" then "Further reading" and finally "External links". You should remove the "List of Colorado marijuana dispensaries" because it is so large it slows down the rendering of the entire page and you already have a link to the official list in your "External links" list. Maintaining the list would also be difficult, it's much better to simply refer readers to the official list maintained by the relevant state authority. If you look at the page info at 253,815 bytes it is already more than double the recommended maximum length for Wikipedia articles of 100kB - without that list it is well under the limit.

Thank you. I was hoping I'd get some feedback on the list. Thank you for going through the article and helping me make it better and thank you for helping me become a better editor. --Potguru (talk) 19:37, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone please find more sources for this and edit this page? Thanks! 68.2.123.163 (talk) 19:55, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You are "someone" and seeing as you are interested in the article and topic you are arguably exactly the right someone to do it. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:30, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, so this article for TVPaint was deleted back in January because it was mostly copy-pasted from the TVPaint website. Can someone please rewrite this? 68.2.123.163 (talk) 20:33, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As in my post in the section above, you are the best "someone" to do it. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:32, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
