10:55:38, 3 October 2020 review of submission by OBIAGELI2020[edit]


OBIAGELI2020 (talk) 10:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC) The article name with Helen obiageli should not be deleted,contest this speedy deletion because am writing about myself and no one knows me better than i do and i want to contribute to wikipedia so why are you discouraging me[reply]

OBIAGELI2020 Wikipedia is not a place for people to write about themselves, please see the autobiography policy. This is not social media, but an encyclopedia, and as an encyclopedia Wikipedia is only interested in what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about you, showing how you meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. Wikipedia has no interest in what people want to say about themselves. If you just want to tell the world about yourself and your career, you should use social media. 331dot (talk) 11:05, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have made all the changes as mentioned by the reviewers to improve the draft here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Massar_Solutions. The company belongs to the government of UAE and does that give it notability(Francisjk2020 (talk) 12:41, 3 October 2020 (UTC))[reply]

@Francisjk2020: no, belonging to a government is not a shortcut to get an article on Wikipedia. The meaning of "notability" in Wikipedia for companies is at WP:NCORP. Victor Schmidt (talk) 12:55, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Elwati Elve (talk) 13:53, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Elwati Elve You don't ask a question, but your draft was rejected, meaning it will not be considered further. Wikipedia is not a place for people to tell the world about themselves or advance their music career; see the autobiography policy for more information. Please use social media to spread the word about yourself. 331dot (talk) 14:07, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Commonly, a Help desk is a place where you come when you have a specific question. May we start with your question please? Victor Schmidt (talk) 17:29, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

18:29:11, 3 October 2020 review of draft by Ceefrop[edit]


Article got denied when it clearly meets the requirements.

Here's wikipedia's Notability requirements for music:

- Criteria for musicians and ensembles 2. Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart.

Suitable charts A chart is normally considered suitable for inclusion if it meets both of the following characteristics:

It is published by a recognized reliable source. This includes any IFPI affiliate, Billboard magazine, or any organization with the support of Nielsen SoundScan.

DFD Music has charted on BILLBOARD multiple times. The sources are linked in the article.

They have always worked with major labels and signed artists. Another notability requirement which is linked.

Elwati Elve (talk) 18:30, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Elwati Elve, please stop spamming this request. It has no verification and "Wikipedia is not a place for people to tell the world about themselves or advance their music career; see the autobiography policy for more information. Please use social media to spread the word about yourself" as stated by 331dot. Heart (talk) 04:12, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Elwati Elve: this submission lacks any form of verification. Therefore, it currently also fails WP:NARTIST. Victor Schmidt (talk) 18:54, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

21:45:58, 3 October 2020 review of submission by Right cite[edit]


Added more on release and reception, reviews of the game, coverage from news media, and more overall research. Could deserve another look. Thank you!

23:32:08, 3 October 2020 review of submission by Sedimentary7[edit]

I recieved a message saying this artist does not meet the notability requirements. I have seen other start-class articles where artists have recieved the same amount of recognition. Since this is my first article, I would love to have pin-pointed feedback. Could I have more clarification on why this artist does not meet the requirements? Sedimentary7 (talk) 23:32, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sedimentary7 Please note that each draft or article is judged on its own merits, and that the existence of other similar articles does not mean yours can exist too. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible to get inappropriate articles by us.
For this artist to merit an article, you must show with significant coverage in independent reliable sources that they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable artist. Most of the sources you provided merely confirm the existence of her work or points in her career. 331dot (talk) 08:32, 4 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
