01:00, 15 March 2024 review of submission by 136.36.47.34

[edit]

I HAVE A COMPLAINT The reason it was rejected was "Wikipedia articles are not for stuff made up in one day." I DID NOT INVENT WIZ MUD SOMEBODY ELSE DID AND IT WAS NOT MADE UP IN ONE DAY IT WAS CREATED IN 2017 BRUH WHY ARE THE EDITORS ALWAYS CAPPING BRUH!!!!! 136.36.47.34 (talk) 01:00, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft has been rejected and won't be considered any longer. – DreamRimmer (talk) 05:24, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Your draft violates Wikipedia's core content policies and is simply not appropriate for this encyclopedia. Discuss this game on social media if you want to, but not here. Cullen328 (talk) 17:44, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I have established myself in my field and Wikipedia helps me in stating that I'm genuine person for those who don't me personally and Wikipedia will help me to grow my name in longer wide online rather I struggling in off-line Srinivaschinka90 (talk) 07:12, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Srinivaschinka90: try LinkedIn or something similar. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a platform for promoting yourself. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:57, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Why this page is not getting published, working hard for more than 2 years and provided with sufficient links to proof including government links, kindly look into it. Kaiumkhan321 (talk) 07:38, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kaiumkhan321: you're pointing to your user talk page, we don't publish those as articles, obviously (and you shouldn't use it to develop article content, either). If instead you mean Draft:Abdul Kashim Khan, then that draft was deleted months ago. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:56, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

12:25, 15 March 2024 review of submission by İstbull

[edit]

Hi, we are trying to create our university's wikipedia, however, can you help us with this, will it be accepted if we put external links or our university's own page as a reference? Cem Barut 12:25, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia articles are not for organizations to tell the world about themselves Articles summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about an organization, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization.
If you are an employee of the university, that must be disclosed according to the Terms of Use, see WP:PAID for instructions. 331dot (talk) 13:08, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
İstbull, your draft is much more like a promotional essay than a neutrally written encyclopedia article. Cullen328 (talk) 17:49, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

14:01, 15 March 2024 review of submission by Puck Osborne

[edit]

I have made the revisions as requested but want to make sure I have resolved all the issues adequately before resubmitting. Thanks! Puck Osborne (talk) 14:01, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, we don't really do pre-review reviews here- the best way to get feedback is to submit it. 331dot (talk) 14:02, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

15:16, 15 March 2024 review of submission by Friendbelittler

[edit]

Hi there! My page was declined and I figured I would ask point blank what things I would need to add to demonstrate that the artist meets the notability guidelines. Would the inclusion of additional coverage from reputable sources independent of the artist (like her Splice interview) be sufficient? Friendbelittler (talk) 15:16, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Friendbelittler I fixed your link, the whole url is not needed.
Interviews do not contribute to notability as interviews are not independent sources, being the person speaking about themselves. You need to show how she meets the definition of a notable musician with significant coverage in independent reliable sources that chose on their own to give the coverage. 331dot (talk) 15:19, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your reply! I'll give the guidelines a more thorough read and resubmit in the future when I think she's met the criteria. Friendbelittler (talk) 15:22, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Friendbelittler: you would need to cite sources that meet the WP:GNG notability guideline, or else provide evidence that the subject satisfies the WP:MUSICBIO one. The sources currently provided fall far short of either.
And just resubmitting the article without any improvement after it has been declined is not going to get you anywhere, other than eventually resulting in a rejected draft with no option to resubmit. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:20, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good to know about the possibility of rejection on resubmission, thanks! Friendbelittler (talk) 15:27, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Please let me know about modifications in this article. PratikPatel0795 (talk) 16:03, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@PratikPatel0795: this draft has been deleted as promotional. Please note that you should not be writing about yourself, see WP:AUTOBIO. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:17, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

17:18, 15 March 2024 review of submission by LRW123

[edit]

Article for creation rejected because sources are not considered notable. When I have used all the secondary sources that I could find on the subject, what else can be done to get the article published? ` LRW123 (talk) 17:18, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@LRW123: this was declined, not rejected; rejection would mean that you cannot resubmit, whereas declined drafts can be submitted again once you've addressed the decline reasons. That said, if you cannot find better sources, then the subject may be not notable enough to justify an article. There isn't anything else that can be done, as notability cannot be magically conjured out of thin air. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:28, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your quick action and clarification on the matter! LRW123 (talk) 12:03, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Another question, why is there a note that says my article has paid contributions, when I go to edit the article? LRW123 (talk) 13:47, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@LRW123: you've declared general COI in this subject, but should you have declared the more specific COI of paid editing? Which is another way of asking, what is your relationship with this organisation?
The paid contributions template is just flagging up that the text may require editing for neutral POV etc. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:10, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Why my page has declined? What is missing in my page? Peanutlover2024 (talk) 21:51, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Peanutlover2024 I fixed your post to provide a link to your draft. Your draft has no sources to support its content. Please see referencing for beginners. 331dot (talk) 21:59, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
