02:56, 2 July 2023 review of submission by John.GGVV

[edit]

I need to know if my sources are realbility or not. thanks in advance. John.GGVV (talk) 02:56, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@John.GGVV: if by "realbility" you mean reliable (?), then yes, sources #1–6 are reliable, as sources go. (Sources #7–8 are obviously just commercial operations.) Whether they actually support anything in the draft, or provide sufficient coverage to help establish notability, I don't know, as I haven't looked. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:14, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
okay thanks. John.GGVV (talk) 08:50, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi, Supports, Please give indetail the step by step guidance to improve my article. The said article was in sandbox and declined. Thanks Aynf224 (talk) 03:38, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Aynf224: you need to demonstrate that the subject is notable in Wikipedia terms; this almost certainly requires sources that satisfy the WP:GNG standard, namely multiple independent and reliable secondary sources with significant coverage of this person.
Wild claims, like the ones in the 2nd para, also need to be substantiated, and everything must be clearly supported by citations to reliable published sources. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:08, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What can be solved 192.145.170.131 (talk) 14:40, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing can or need be "solved"; this draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:31, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

15:20, 2 July 2023 review of submission by MetaspaceOS

[edit]

Why is this declined? I am the owner of the team and I don't need to reference myself either. MetaspaceOS (talk) 15:20, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

(Draft deleted, user indeffed.) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:30, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16:15:39, 2 July 2023 review of draft by AiDash Writer

[edit]


I am trying to submit my draft for review. I keep being rejected and told that it has no references. Not true. There are 17. And each has been inserted into the text using the formula provided on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Referencing_for_beginners_without_using_templates The page indicates that it will autogenerate the References list from the text. I am at a loss. What do you recommend? Thank you!

AiDash Writer (talk) 16:15, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have edited the first two references as an example for you, you need to remove the "no wiki" mark up and also the weird "small" mark up which is not required. Theroadislong (talk) 16:25, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:24, 2 July 2023 review of submission by ManaliJain

[edit]

It was last rejected more than a year ago. More notable work and reliable sources have been added up plus tried to improve the draft since last submission. Should I submit it for review now or any changes/development should be made? Any suggestions? ManaliJain (talk) 17:24, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry @ManaliJain, as it has been rejected (twice!) it can not be considered further. Qcne (talk) 08:42, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Qcne: So you say that the subject would never be able to make it to the mainspace? But draft rejection isn't the ultimate stoppage for an article, or is it? Can't more notable work and reliable citations improve and make it better, in this case? ManaliJain (talk) 11:06, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Rejection is not permanent for all time, but there must be a fundamental change in circumstances for a rejected draft to be reconsidered. Typically the first step is to appeal to the last reviewer directly and explain what has changed since the rejection. 331dot (talk) 11:16, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@331dot: Sure. ManaliJain (talk) 11:27, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
