Hi, I'm from russian wiki. We have rather strict rules in terms of notability and sources. So, I request you for some reviews about To Welcome the Fade in specialized press, as we need a little more sources (excepting review on Allmusic) to prove the subject of article is notable for wiki. Thanks a million! Wanwa (talk) 13:35, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

Article Redemption

Hi folks. I've been forwarded to this page from an experienced Wikipedia trying to help me out. I discovered an article for a subject which I was about to suggest for creation on Wikipedia, until I found an incubated version in the search results. The article appeared to be placed in the incubator (not really sure why, maybe quality it was lacking or lack of citation?). I read about the requirements and it meets them. Anyway as I explained to the other Wikipedian, I went and picked up where the others left off and fixed up the article and basically gave it reliability. So he told me to come here as perhaps somebody would know what happens now, if any of you could move it to the main space? I was hoping you could help change the status or ask someone who does so my contributions aren't in vein. I read the rules and no this is not my band or friend's band or anything like that. So if you can help, thank you in advance. --Ray. Here is the article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_Incubator/Common_Dead — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.201.20.167 (talk) 16:29, 6 May 2012 (UTC)

All right, I think the article has a good amount of information and can be on Wikipedia. However, it could use some brushing up, such as with the citation format. I believe I can move it to the mainspace. Thanks for your contributions. Backtable Speak to meconcerning my deeds. 01:33, 7 May 2012 (UTC)
Hello Backtable. Thank you very much for your help! Was the URL name thing my fault? Should I add titles to what the links are? I might have to look at what the others submitted to see the names of sources. I'm sorry for sounding like a noob. I have only started editing. I should also register a name soon.
