March 30[edit]

My draft declined[edit]

Draft:Exim Bank of India

why my draft was declined and what it is there to improve? Please someone help me... DilipSpatel (talk) 05:16, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@DilipSpatel: it was declined for the reasons given by the reviewer in the decline note and the accompanying message – did you read those? In any case, you have resubmitted it, so now you just need to wait for it to be reviewed again. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:42, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks DilipSpatel (talk) 05:51, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@DilipSpatel Something I noticed that you should fix is the long string of references you have put in the "Chronology" heading. Move them to apropriate places in the body text, or remove them if they are redundant. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 08:25, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

10:08:44, 30 March 2023 review of submission by EvolutionSOS[edit]

Hi,

I'm confused. I submitted my draft but at one point move it to the sandbox as it asked me to. But then I think it went back into drafts. I'm just trying to get the article approved, but I don't know the status of it or what I need to do.

Please help!

The article is a biography about Jonathan Richard Truss. EvolutionSOS (talk) 10:08, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @EvolutionSOS:
You had created this draft in your user page, which isn't the place for developing article content, so it was moved soon after to its current location in the draft space. There is a redirect from your user page to that draft, which could be deleted. The draft is currently awaiting review.
You also created a blank sandbox at User:EvolutionSOS/sandbox, and for some reason submitted that for review on 10 March, but it was declined as we cannot consider blank drafts.
HTH, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:37, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
thank you for your reply. To clarify, there's nothing I need to do now then? Apart from wait! Many thanks EvolutionSOS (talk) 07:14, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I need help getting this page published. What, exactly do I need to include/omit in order to correct this page. Girl Named Nino is a legitimate working artist with releases, and tour dates along with collaborations as an indie musician. Thanks!

You need reliable independent sources, Spotify, Bandcamp and Wikipedia are NOT reliable. Theroadislong (talk) 16:19, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:28:41, 30 March 2023 review of draft by Nietabieta[edit]


Hi, I am working on responding to the comments provided and will edit the article accordingly. Thank you for the feedback.

Is there a way to link my English draft version of the article to one that was written in French: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polly_Ferman?

Nietabieta (talk) 17:28, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Nietabieta, the interlanguage links can only be added after the article is published. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:31, 30 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you like, you can simply write "this article is a translation of https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polly_Ferman" at the top of your article. That way you can be certain a reviewer will see it. It's easy enough for us to remove later. But your translations should always be noted as translations in your edit history. Have a look at WP:TRANSLATE for instructions. You may also want to use Template:Translated page on the Talk page. All of these can be done while the article is still a draft. -- asilvering (talk) 23:32, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
