Request on 01:58:42, 27 June 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Maria Lucia Maria Lucia S

[edit]


I am writing about a person -- Enid Deutchman Zimmerman and having trouble with Reference Citations. For a book or article, how do you reference more than one author? The standard Template to Cite book or journal only has room for one author? RSVP Thank you.


Maria Lucia S (talk) 01:58, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Maria Lucia S Greetings to you. What you can do is to addtional parameter for author 1 and author 2 and etc. - Book reference pls see -Template:Cite book. Under the "Examples" section, there are examples on two authors, citing a chapter in a book with different authors for different chapters and an editor and etc. Have a good day.

CASSIOPEIA "I'm sorry Please explain more of what you mean" -WhyCue
WhyCue, Hi, COI means conflict of interest - pls click here for more information and disclose your COI - see WP:COI. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 05:51, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
CASSIOPEIA "What should I do next I'm a beginner?" -WhyCue
WhyCue, Read links provided - clicking the blue highlighted texts as it will bring you to another page with further detail. By the way, Wikipedia strongly discourages a COI editor edit the affected page as content neutrality is an issue. At this stage subject is not notable and no amount of editing will help. Pls see musician notability requirements. Also, pls see message one below yours on the same subject. hank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 08:23, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

LOOKING FOR ASSISTANCE WITH Draft:Why_Cue NEED HELP GETTING APPROVED!!

Gastronautsmp3 (talk) 05:31, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Gastronautsmp3 The draft article is created by Wikiproducer123. WhyCue joined Wikipedia today and performed mainly the said draft page and asked about the approval on AfCHD WP:AFCHD# 02:55:14, 27 June 2018 review of submission by WhyCue which I believe WhyCue might have conflict of interest and inform them on CIO disclosure at AFCHD WP:AFCHD#02:55:14, 27 June 2018 review of submission by WhyCue, user talk page Draft:Why Cue and my talk page User talk:CASSIOPEIA/Archive 8#Need your help could definitely use your brains!. After my answer to user WhyCue, you registered today and perform one edit on the draft page -see [1] and requested the said article for approval on the AFCHD - see WP:AFCHD#05:31:16, 27 June 2018 review of submission by Gastronautsmp3.
Question, have you register 3 different user names with the motivation to get the draft approve ? Four reviewers have reviewed the article in addition to Maproom and I, the subject is not notable enough to merit a page at the current standing. Please read WP:MUSICBIO and WP:RS. Thank you.

[edit]

Hi I have tried uploading this article numerous times but to no success. I don't really know what the problem with it is. Can anyone help. Kenyanuu (talk) 08:04, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Kenyanuu - The issue, as three reviewers have already said, is that the draft is a weakly-sourced advertisement for a non-notable company. Wikipedia's an online encylopedia, not a marketing platform, and your draft's just not a suitable subject. KJP1 (talk) 20:04, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I have been using droptask for a while with work. I am learning how to use wikipedia and can see that droptask has no page, I would like to create. It is a task management tool. Can you please check its articles? I am told it is not notable but believe it to be. I would love to get an article live and become part of your wikipedia community. Thank you! Mallysally26 (talk) 15:51, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mallysally26 - As two reviewers have indicated, the topic really doesn't seem notable. Wikipedia's an online encyclopedia and topics covered should have "significant coverage from reliable, independent, sources" to show Notability. This doesn't, and I doubt it will as it's an application among millions. There are loads of ways you can become part of the Wikipedia community, even if this article's not suitable. One of the best approaches, for those who are new, is to work on existing articles, rather than trying to write a new one from scratch. That way you learn the ropes and can then move on to creating new articles. All the best. KJP1 (talk) 20:26, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hi Wikipedia team, my draft article Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Play has been declined because the "article already exists in Wikipedia" at Lucille Lortel Award. If the contents of my draft are compared to the Lucille Lortel Award it is clear that this is not the case. My draft contains all nominees and recipients of the award for Lead Actress and not a description of the overall award history, voting, hosts and location. I believe the mix-up is due to my draft having an incorrect title when I first submitted it where it was mistakenly named "Lucille Lortel Award".

Please let me know what I can do to get the article published. Cheers

EddyPieHands (talk) 17:54, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

EddyPieHands Hi Good day. The content of your draft is part of what Lucille Lortel Awards articl. What you could do is to expand this Lucille Lortel Awards stub class article by incorporating Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Play's content onto Lucille Lortel Awards. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 09:01, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]


CASSIOPEIA Hi and thanks for the response. While the contents of the draft are related to the Lucille Lortel Award article I don't see why it should be included there. The article would simply be huge and messy. My draft contains only one of twenty categories and I intend to add the other 19 eventually. All other Wikipedia theatre and film award articles are built this way. One about the award and one for each of the categories. Examples: Obie Award and Obie Award for Distinguished Performance by an Actress. Tony Award and Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play. Academy Awards and Academy Award for Best Actress
Unless Wikipedia is trying to limit the number of new articles created, I fail to see why this structure should change. It works beautifully. Cheers
EddyPieHands (talk) 15:30, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Hi EddyPieHands. You are correct. Thank you for your submission, I've left a comment there. A color key for the tables would also be beneficial. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:57, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the helpful response Worldbruce. I have added a handful references and a (primitive) colour key. Should I resubmit or will you review it? Cheers, EddyPieHands (talk) 20:28, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@EddyPieHands and Worldbruce: Believe the article has been accepted. As the current stand it looks more a "List type" and not an "typical article type". Welcome comments from Worldbruce please. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 23:38, 28 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


The page "Golden Sheen Sapphire" is being continually vandalized by a person with malicious intent that is using only IP address from multiple different IP address - probably Internet cafes.

How can this page vandalism be stopped? It is possible to edit lock the page for a while until they get tired and go away?

Sjwaddington (talk) 18:59, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sjwaddington Greetings. This the help desk for Article for Creation and it is not the right place to seek help here on vandalism topics. However, just to note a few things here (1) Facebook is not a reliable source, so it would not be necessary for your to revert IP edit and reinsert FB source. (2), if any content change and it is supported by source, do check the source for verification of the content claimed. If editor add content and supported by source that is not a vandalism unless it fall under WP:VAND categories. for content disagreement, please discuss in the article talk page for any by inviting the involved editors (3) Please be careful of violating WP:3RR within 24 hours for a block would be placed on involved editors. A 3RR only valid if it is clear vandalized edit. (4) Do warn the editor if their have vandalized a page and increasing the level each time if their continues. You could report the editor on the their 5th vandalized edit at WP:AIV. A page also could be protected if multiple editors vandalized a page by reporting it to WP:RPP. Thank you.

[edit]

Please let me know what is wrong with my article and why they article was not approved? Thanks Winnipegpost (talk) 19:42, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Winnipegpost - It isn't a suitable topic for Wikipedia. It's a weakly-sourced advertisement for a company that's not Notable. Wikipedia's an online encyclopedia, not a marketing platform, and I'm afraid your draft just isn't suitable material. KJP1 (talk) 20:00, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
