02:19:39, 26 June 2022 review of draft by Hamza Ali Shah

[edit]


Hello, I am working on a draft about Suleman Raza. It recently got rejected for WP:PUFFERY. I have worked on the article for a bit after that and I was wondering if someone could just have a quick read over and kindly tell me if there is anything which sounds like WP:PUFFERY. Thanks in advance!

Looks decent to me, pinging Herpetogenesis for comments. I'm personally not sure about notability, what are your three best sources that you think support WP:GNG or any other notability guidelines? Justiyaya 18:40, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Justiyaya, the three best sources in my opinion are this, this and this. There are other sources out there but these were the ones that covered him in most detail in my opinion.  Hamza Ali Shah  Talk 17:04, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not really sure about the sources honestly. I think the subject is notable but not really certain. WP:ANYBIO might also apply here. Try re-submitting and waiting for another review. Justiyaya 17:19, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I’ll try doing that. Thanks for your help!  Hamza Ali Shah  Talk 18:23, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

All of your sources are completely worthless for notability - the interview and Haze Cards' own website have a connexion to subject and we do not cite wikis (and especially not Wikipedia itself). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 20:40, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 21:16:27, 26 June 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Judgehistorian

[edit]


I submitted my first article submission to Wikipedia. It was reviewed and not accepted for creation because the references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. I cited news coverage in 10 different mainstream newspapers published around the country. I cited the trade journal from the American Bar Association. Before any resubmission, I need to understand how many more additional references are needed to meet the notability standard. Judgehistorian (talk) 21:16, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Judgehistorian I'm puzzled as to why you requested its deletion, making it harder for non-admins to help you. It's not the number of references that is the issue, but their quality and content, that is relevant. An article about the judge must not just tell us about him, it must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about him, showing how he meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable person. Most of your sources seem to not have significant coverage. He may be notable for being the youngest judge in Indiana, but there must be coverage of that point(and not just from Guiness WR). 331dot (talk) 21:26, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry. I submitted this request for assistance under the wrong (a deleted) draft. It should have been submitted under: Draft:Marc Griffin After reviewing your comments, I have resubmitted my request for assistance with more focused questions. Judgehistorian (talk) 02:07, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
