01:39:52, 21 June 2019 review of submission by EagerBeaverPJ[edit]

Hi, so I started a draft about an ongoing major news event, the 2019 Chennai water crisis, but on my draft page there is a notice that says my draft may take 8 weeks or more to be accepted since there are more than 4000 drafts waiting for review. So if it is not reviewed fast enough can I just go ahead and create a page directly for it at this link: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2019_Chennai_water_crisis&action=edit&redlink=1 since this event is ongoing and an article for it needs to be published quickly? Thanks, EagerBeaverPJ (talk) 01:39, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

EagerBeaverPJ, greetings. An article created via AfC or newpage, will subject to be reviewed before it is in mainspace of Wikipedia if it is accepted. Your draft page is declined at the moment and if the subject has further development beside on June 19, then readd info and sources to resubmit, but as of now it is WP:BREAKING and need to be WP:LASTING. Cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 07:39, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@CASSIOPEIA: Wait so are you telling me that if I add more information to my draft article then you'll accept it? I could do that, but I believed that since there are other editors working on pages too I didn't need to write the whole thing myself... And even the Wikipedia:Article development page says that most articles start off as stubs that eventually grow into long articles with time, so you could still publish it now and then I could work with other editors also interested in the topic to help it grow.

EagerBeaverPJ, Greetings. What I am saying is that the water crisis need to provide further development on how this " "Day Zero" came about and more importantly, how does it effect the society/ppl after Chennai city officials declared that "Day Zero". If you could find that then add them in and resubmit. Cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 12:20, 24 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

09:39:46, 21 June 2019 review of submission by Brickpa[edit]

As the last reviewer of my article on sabari anadhan said me to update the exact link to Loyola college young entrepreneur magazine but the site is out of scope under its reconstruction. And I Wish my article to be uploaded soon on Wikipedia and soon after the site reconstruction,I will provide the exact link to the magazine. Thanks.

The last reviewer actually said that the topic is not notable. Theroadislong (talk) 10:24, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! How do you make the page to set up "Life, career, etc"

Sobrien22 (talk) 13:41, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Sobrien22: Put each heading on a new line, surrounded by two equals signs on each side (e.g. == Life ==, == Career ==, etc). See Help:Section for more info. --Ahecht (TALK

Request on 15:36:54, 21 June 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Belarus5566[edit]


I have updated a post. Thanks

Belarus5566 (talk) 15:36, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Belarus5566, right now you do not have any sources in your article. You need multiple independent, reliable sources (like books or newspaper articles) that discuss Sahil in order for your submission to be accepted. Note that the page you linked to on az.wikipedia.org also does not have any sources. Nole (chat·edits) 16:53, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

18:22:03, 21 June 2019 review of draft by 63.139.228.146[edit]


I submitted a draft for a new page titled RED MUSIC which is a newly created record label as of 2017. The submission was declined by AngusWOOF, citing that there's already a page for RED MUSIC at RED Distribution, and that I should make edits to the RED Distribution wiki. Unfortunately, this is incorrect. RED Distribution and RED MUSIC are two different business units and serve separate business purposes. Additionally, RED Distribution is no longer an active entity. Is it possible for me to reverse this declined post? 63.139.228.146 (talk) 18:22, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nealuigi (talk) 20:28, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am following up to see if someone can help me to identify which specific sources are deemed unreliable in my new article submission. Thank you in advance!

Hi Nealuigi, after looking at your submission I would note that youtube videos, podcasts, and blogs are generally not considered to be reliable sources (since effectively anyone can publish them and there is no quality control or editing process). Additionally, and perhaps more importantly, articles or videos published by Bet-David do not have nearly the weight that articles or videos published about Bet-David would have. So article helps demonstrate notability wayyyy more than all of the links to things that Bet-David has done, but which are published by his own company. Does that help?

That is very helpful, thank you! Nolelover

21:53:14, 21 June 2019 review of draft by Dr. Andrew Fox[edit]


I am fairly new to Wikipedia. My client, Andrew Fox, travels all over the world and speaks in various places. He's published books and articles, along with some news coverage.

Do we just need to use a different template?

Let me know how we can still utilize Wiki here, but stay within the guidelines. The language and direction is new to me. Many Thanks Matt Garner
