02:17:18, 20 October 2019 review of submission by 2402:8100:2190:ED1B:0:0:1859:225

[edit]


Dear Wikipedia Admin we Will Submit Another News Source if you want and how to Verify This Page. I have Already mention proof of WP:NACTOR .

Pls Tell me Briefly.

2402:8100:2190:ED1B:0:0:1859:225 (talk) 02:17, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There does not appear to be any proof of WP:NACTOR. Regardless, the article appears to be a repeated recreation, and will likely be deleted as an attempt to game the system. The only sources appear to be press releases, which are not suitable for use as sources. Really what you'd need would be articles in reliable newspapers. But those don't appear to exist for this person. That means this person is just not notable at this time. There are 8 billion living people, and only very few are notable enough to be on Wikipedia. Please move on to working on a different article. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 07:54, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Can I inquire about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:National_Institute_of_Social_Sciences

Nearly 11 weeks ago, I addressed the issues raised by the editor.

Many thanks.

TPCross (talk) 06:43, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

TPCross, It is awaiting review. Drafts are reviewed in no particular order, although there is an emphasis on very new and very old drafts. The review time is currently longer than usual, as there is a large backlog of drafts. The typical review time is currently more than 8 weeks. Hopefully your draft will be gotten to soon.

Request on 07:00:28, 20 October 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by 83Gulf

[edit]


I'm trying to reference my new article - Flexibound but I can't find authoritative refs i.e.: online from universities, news articles, e-books. All is see using the search: flexibound, flex-bound, flexi boung, flexibind, flexi-bind, flexi-binding, fexi binding...anyway you get the idea. All search terms list .com websites that are booksellers or printers. I can't find anything from .edu, .org, .gov,...trust me, I'm very good at search. No news anywhere about this type of binding. I don't have any books that would explain what it is, so I can't ref that Yet, it is a word "flexibound" that's used everywhere if I was buying the book or wanted it printed. The only reason I wanted to make the article was because I never heard the term before and so the 1st place I naturally looke was here. I don't want to mark it for deletion, I don't give up that easy. PLEASE HELP!! I have very little hair left.

83Gulf (talk) 07:00, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

83Gulf, Howdy hello! I suspect that Flexibound is just not notable enough for an article of its own in that case. Articles make it onto Wikipedia becuase they have reliable sources write about them. If something doesn't have any sources writing about it, its not notable. Your quest may work better as an addition to the Bookbinding page, instead of as a page of its own. But in trying to find more sources, I recommend turning to ...you guessed it a book. A book about bookbinding or book making might have what you need. But you seem to have exhausted most traditional sourcing; there really may not be anything reliable written about it. Some things just aren't written down :/ Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 08:07, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


I requested 'Perpetuity Diet' to be placed on Wiki and it was declined. Please advise how I can get the Perpetuity Diet posted as I did not believe it was promoting a person, product or belief, so I am a little confused as I am a Psychological researcher and it is not about me or what I believe in.

The Vegan diet promotes a long and healthy life as other diets do, please advise how I can list this on Wiki.

Thank you

Healing Counselling, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. To feature your diet in the encyclopedia, it needs to meet all of the article criteria in Wikipedia:Everything you need to know. Most importantly, it must have been the subject of significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. If it doesn't have this, we can't verify the article's contents, therefore we can't have an article.
Additionally, if you are being paid to create articles, or are creating articles are part of your employment, you are required to disclose this - WP:PAID, and to follow the Conflict of Interest editing guidelines - WP:COI. ~~ OxonAlex - talk 09:36, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

09:59:16, 20 October 2019 review of draft by MelvinSeja

[edit]


Im requesting for help because my article was declined because there is an exisiting draft. Isn't there a way my own draft article can be merged with the existing draft article without me editing someone's article? because the draft article diego tryno ,is now 9months old and it doesn't have much information as mine has. MelvinSeja (talk) 09:59, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

MelvinSeja, You are free to merge them together, simply copy information from one to the other, following the first step of WP:MERGETEXT - as their both drafts the following steps don't matter.
No user owns any Wikipedia article (WP:OWN), and you can edit any page here (within reason) ~~ OxonAlex - talk 10:29, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

10:04:15, 20 October 2019 review of submission by Mikelmurf

[edit]

Hello, I would like to know how to proceed to publish this article. I have searched a lot of information and I have only found it in physical format through specialized music magazines. 

Formerly there was a website where the history of this record label was explained, but unfortunately it is no longer available. I can't find any article on the internet, which makes reference to this record label (which is why I decided to make it fair by publishing an article about it on Wikipedia, so it wouldn't be forgotten) I would greatly appreciate any help you could offer me, because by not finding references on the internet, I don't know how to proceed. I have publications on paper that talk about it and explain the history, but they are not digitalized or published on the web (something normal because it is something old) thanks for your help — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikelmurf (talk • contribs)

Sources don't have to be online to be used - see Wikipedia:Offline sources. If the sources meet the other criteria (significant coverage, reliable, independent), their accessability is not important. ~~ OxonAlex - talk 10:40, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hi, my draft article was declined because there is another draft article Diego Tryno that was posted before mine ,so i merged my draft article with the old draft article .My worry is the old article was posted in June ,and it still hasn't been reviewed ,i checked the history and there has been numerous edits from different users, now that i added part of my article in it does it mean i have to join the waiting 'gang'of users? haha we all need a laugh here and there, anyway is there a way to review the old article faster so that i personally don't have to wait for long? MelvinSeja (talk) 11:09, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

MelvinSeja Can you describe how he meets WP:SINGER please? The draft's sources include a lot of blogs which are not reliable. Theroadislong (talk) 11:23, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

12:46:11, 20 October 2019 review of submission by Kapa89

[edit]


Kapa89 (talk) 12:46, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I've added two new sources. Now it should be in accordance with the requirements of Wikipedia.

@Kapa89:, as the most recent reviewer has stated, the sources added are not reliable, secondary, in-depth and independent. One is a blog through IBM, and the other is directly tied to the company. You need to look for secondary sources (newspapers, books etc). It may well be that there are not multiple sources meeting these requirements, at least at the moment, so a page would be possible at this point Nosebagbear (talk) 16:38, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hi,

Making a new submission to get the above article approved by Wikipedia. I have been in touch with MMA fighter Peter Queally and he has informed me that due to their being a wikipedia of the same name people are getting mixed up with who is who, the other Peter Queally is a retired irish sports player and is currently 48 and his wiki shows up on google.

The MMA Peter Queally has told me that he is loosing sponsorships due to this, I please ask you to approve this wiki entry.

Kindest regards, James

PattonJ3 (talk) 18:36, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi PattonJ3. None of the reasons you've given above are reasons for Wikipedia to publish the draft. Wikipedia would consider publishing it only if the notability of the subject had changed since the draft was rejected in July. If Queally is dissatisfied with Google's knowledge panel, he should take that up with Google. Wikipedia has no control over what Google displays there. See https://support.google.com/knowledgepanel/answer/9163198?hl=en for more information on how to work with Google on the issue. --Worldbruce (talk) 21:16, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@PattonJ3: MMA notability guidelines are at WP:NMMA. Another Bellator fight should satisfy this requirement. JTP (talk • contribs) 18:26, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

19:00:27, 20 October 2019 review of submission by Jeremy7333

[edit]


Jeremy7333 (talk) 19:00, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jeremy7333. Wikipedia does not have biographies of people simply because they are musical artists with products for sale, it is not an indiscriminate directory of all musicians. Wikipedia includes biographies of musicians only if they are notable. Most fundamentally, this means if they have been written about at length in independent, reliable, secondary sources such as: CCM Magazine, Complex, HipHopDX, Spin, Vibe, The Wire, and XXL. The draft has been rejected because the subject does not appear to be notable. This may change as his career progresses, so re-examine the topic in a few years, by which time more may have been written about him in the hip hop press. --Worldbruce (talk) 21:38, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Jeremy7333, Your main issue here is with sourcing. Wikipedia is not usable as a source. The rest of the sources are just links to apple music pages. Those aren't reliable sources that back up the claims. An article about a living person (per the WP:BLP policy) needs to be well sourced. That means reliable and independent sources. Think news outlets like the New York Times. If such sources cannot be found, the subject is just not notable. There are 8 billion living people and only a select few can make it onto Wikipedia.

19:11:46, 20 October 2019 review of draft by Remmyn

[edit]

I really did not find the reasons shared for declining my publication. First its an oral history of my people that I am making effort to document and above all for posterity and will appreciate a second look or consideration on the subject.

Remmyn (talk) 19:11, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Remmyn, What your draft needs is sources. Currently you appear to have no sources. Sources should take the form of books, newspapers, websites, or other written material. Oral records are not sufficient. Such sources do not have to be English language, but must be published, as well as reliable and independent. If such sources do not exist, then the subject is not notable. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 21:53, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Hi Remmyn. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, the information it summarizes comes from published secondary sources. We don't publish oral histories. If you want to document and preserve an oral history, try contacting a local historical society, library, or university in your area. Such organizations often collect such histories and can advise you. Or try an alternative outlet that has different inclusion criteria than Wikipedia.
Here you may use reliable, published, secondary sources (not oral histories) to write an encyclopedia article about a place. If you want to do that, see WikiProject Villages, WikiProject Cities, and WikiProject Nigeria for general advice. See Enugu for a good example of an article about a settlement. It shows the range of sources that can be used. --Worldbruce (talk) 22:04, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

This artical is a usefull for many people to get this information Guushaa55 (talk) 19:45, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Guushaa55, In order for people to have articles written about them, they must be notable. Regular folks usually just aren't notable. For inclusion on Wikipedia, someone needs to have been written about by reliable and independent sources (think they New York Times). If you are writing about yourself, we strongly advise against doing so, as that is a conflict of interest. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 21:45, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

21:44:03, 20 October 2019 review of submission by TabBytes

[edit]

Hello Wiki editor , I have submitted a page for review which is about a NGO . The page has been reject . Now, what shall I do. Can I edit and apply for review. I want to tell you that I am not related to the NGO by any means. I just saw on facebook and thought I should make a wiki page about it. But now it is declined. Can I edit it. TabBytes (talk) 21:44, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

TabBytes, I assume you refer to Draft:Solecraft Pvt. Ltd.. In order for this page to be included on Wikipedia it needs to be rewritten from a neutral point of view. It should present the company from an encyclopedic perspective. As is, the wording is very promotional, using lots of puffed up adjectives and adverbs. It also needs reliable sources. None of the current sources are sufficient. Look for coverage in newspapers, magazines, and non-company related websites. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 21:50, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

98.143.78.184 (talk) 23:08, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please include Leontii Depreradovich who is very much notable in the history of Imperial Russia. His picture hangs in the Winter Palace.

Two questions, is this the same person who is at ? and do you have access to the sources in that article?17:30, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
This person is likely notable. However, the sourcing of the article needs to be improved first. One of the sources is hosted on Lulu.com, which usually means its self published. Try to find a better source. Additional sources are needed in general. I suggest military history books, perhaps written in Russian. If you could find information about the picture that hangs in the Winter Palace, that would be good. If you could find the actual picture, that'd be great too.
