Request on 00:10:42, 11 June 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Malini Bhandaru

[edit]


This is my first wikipedia article and I am trying to find secondary sources to address reviewer comments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Dirk_Hohndel

How can I edit and save my changes without triggering additional reviews? Thank you!! Malini Bhandaru (talk) 00:10, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Malini Bhandaru (talk) 00:10, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Malini Bhandaru. You may click the edit tab, make changes, and click "Publish changes" (i.e. save) as often as you like. It is only when you click "Resubmit" followed by "Publish changes" that the draft will go back into the pool to be reviewed again. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:09, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

04:18:45, 11 June 2020 review of draft by Uedit45

[edit]


I am requesting help on how to get the page I just edited, Flyime Music Festival, published. The notification box says that the source "do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject". However, the sources included are independent, reliable sources including some of the largest online news sites in Nigeria, where the festival is held. Furthermore, there is an article from the guardian, Nigeria, on the Flytime Festival - which shows significant coverage, not just a passing mention.

How can this article be improved? Thank you for your help. Uedit45 (talk) 04:18, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Uedit45 The draft merely describes occurrences of the festival; it does not indicate how the festival meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable event. The article should summarize what independent sources with significant coverage state about the festival. If they only state that it occurred and its participants(which is what the sources seem to say) that is not significant coverage, such as in depth writing or analysis of the festival and how it is important. 331dot (talk) 00:54, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


I just want know what can I edit to publish my draft? Also how can I interpret the unique features they offer on the wiki page without it being labeled as promotion. I would really appreciate the help. Thank you!

Hishamkhan87 (talk) 05:53, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hishamkhan87 Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about something. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources state about subjects that are shown to meet Wikipedia's special definition of notability. If you are associated with the subject of your draft, you must review and comply with WP:COI and WP:PAID. There are also special rules when editing about cryptocurrencies, which I will post to your user talk page in a moment. 331dot (talk) 09:04, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


I would like to know what I need to do to make this article publishable. I've seen other articles about qualifications that have been published e.g. early years professionals, so would like to be able to make the necessary adjustments.

Gealey97 (talk) 09:56, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Gealey97 - I saved you some links and guidelines on your talk page which may help you to understand why your promotional draft will not be published in this format, the reviewer DGG summed it up in his Draft comment. CommanderWaterford (talk) 10:38, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Why was this rejected? What can we change to make it acceptable to publish? Zackolivetree (talk) 14:41, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Zackolivetree: First of all, who is "we"? Wikipedia doesn't allow "shared" accounts. If you are affilated with the organisation in any way, please read WP:COI and WP:PAID and make the required disclosures. As for your draft, it currently lacks reliable independent sources and therfore fails WP:NCORP. For your sources,
  • #1 appears to be a directory listing, which are generally not accepted.
  • #2 is the subject's own homepage and not independent.
  • #3 is the Start page of the other buissnes of this company, not independent either and therfore neither acceptable as a reliable source
  • #4 Is something written by someone associated with #3 and not independent either. Victor Schmidt (talk) 17:33, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Need Advice how should i publish this page in article space?? User:GSS Trisha 14:43, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Trisha1983:You need reliable independent sources that cover the subject in some detail.
  • ref # 1 is a Wiki and not reliable per WP:USERG
  • ref #2 appears to be more like an announcement and does not appear to be significant coverage, but It probbably not reliable either
  • ref #3 is one sentence about this subject so it is not significant coverage
  • ref #4 appears to be better than #2, but I don't have an opinion on the reability of that site, so im going to ping @GSS: as the reviewer. Victor Schmidt (talk) 17:24, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
The actor is not yet notable per WP:NACTOR and it's pretty WP:TOOSOON. Also, please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Arshifakhan61‎. GSS 💬 17:33, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jujiang - what exactly is your question? CommanderWaterford (talk) 07:57, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterfordHi, Can "Draft:Hu Zhiying" be moved into the article space now? Or do you think it needs to be modified? Thanks.--Jujiang (talk) 10:36, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Jujiang, as far as I see your draft is already in the process of being reviewed, please be patient, this can take up to several weeks. CommanderWaterford (talk) 11:02, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@CommanderWaterford:,Thank you so much! --Jujiang (talk) 11:08, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

17:51:52, 11 June 2020 review of submission by Mohitshaw11

[edit]

my draft was not accepted as they cited the reason that it does not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added Mohitshaw11 (talk) 17:51, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mohitshaw11 - what exactly is your question? CommanderWaterford (talk) 07:55, 12 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
