05:53:51, 17 January 2023 review of draft by Bequebmemory[edit]


Bequebmemory (talk) 05:53, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]


I would love advice that could help me find the proper balance for the article. If I put in too many links, many have been declined, but if I don't include enough, it isn't verifiable. If I use too many notable items, it apparently reads like an advertisement. I can see how being a wiki editor is hard work. I'm sure all of you are familiar with this dilemma. I would really like to get this resolved since it sounds like it is going to get permanently deleted (six months after the original submission). Thank you so much for absolutely any advice you can give that would help. I greatly appreciate it

@Bequebmemory: it is indeed difficult to write a new article, but at least I can reassure you that the draft will only be deleted as "stale" after 6 months without any edits, not 6 months after your initial submission! Biographies about visual artists is an area I don't have a whole lot of experience in, but it is not crystal clear to me, looking at the draft, that Harth is notable as an artist or per the general notability criteria for biographies. It looks like most of the sources are not primarily about him, which is a problem in terms of showing notability. Hopefully someone else here will be able to be more helpful, otherwise you could try Wikipedia:WikiProject Visual arts and ask for help there.

...and I realise I didn't address the "advertising" comment – one thing you need to be cautious about is the use of adjective phrases such as "award winning". It would be more interesting for the reader (and it would come across as less promotional) if you included a couple of neutrally-written sentences about the documentary, with independent sources. I assume there are independent sources to be found, since the film won awards! Anyway, the fact that someone made a documentary film about his Bible project could be a sign of notability. --bonadea contributions talk 13:41, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is about Draft:Prismart Productions. @Karuna kala: you have been asked several times to disclose your paid conflict of interest on your user page. It is good that you disclose it here, but I'm afraid it is not enough. Please read and follow the instructions on your user talk page. Thanks, --bonadea contributions talk 13:10, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:22:11, 17 January 2023 review of submission by 2603:7000:8106:B298:4127:9F92:838E:E24A[edit]

I recently submitted an article for review by Wikipedia editors (Los Pleneors de la 21). That draft was then redirected, leaving me with a fresh Sandbox to begin my next article (Kristin Oppenheim - Artist). Only problem is I don't see the "Submit your Draft for Review" blue button after I added content and saved by hitting "Publish Page...." I'm not ready to submit this article yet, but when I am what do I do? Do I just hit the "Move" button to submit the article? Or is there something else I need to do to bring up that "Submit your Draft for Review" blue button? Please advise and thank you, Raylaur15 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Raylaur15/sandbox

@Raylaur15: I have added a draft template to your sandbox, to make it possible for you to submit it for review. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 13:47, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:34:08, 17 January 2023 review of draft by 160.72.225.70[edit]


Could I have some assistance with re-writing this to not appear as an advertisement? I am trying to write it in a neutral way, but it seems the draft is still being denied. Do you have any advice to help with this process? Thank you!

160.72.225.70 (talk) 13:34, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are a lot of similar companies in the world. Your draft does not tell the reader why they should be interested in this one in particular. What makes it special? David10244 (talk) 08:30, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:35:59, 17 January 2023 review of draft by StoopKid617[edit]


Can you please help advise which parts of the article appear to not be neutral so this can be fixed?

StoopKid617 (talk) 13:35, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You need to disclose your status as a paid editor first. Theroadislong (talk) 14:14, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@StoopKid617 Please see my reply above. You apparently asked that question (above) while not signed in. Please remember to sign in to Wikipedia before you edit. Thanks. David10244 (talk) 08:32, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

19:30:32, 17 January 2023 review of submission by Cris DaBica[edit]

I am asking for advice on what I have to do to the article so that it is suitable for publication. Cris DaBica (talk) 19:30, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Cris DaBica The fact that it was rejected means that there is nothing that you can do; no amount of editing can confer notability on a topic. 331dot (talk) 21:24, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
