02:20:52, 19 February 2019 review of submission by Imssnegi


Imssnegi (talk) 02:20, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Imssnegi: - as the reviewer said, this draft has nothing in it that indicates the individual is notable (which is not the same as importance). Additionally, it has no references, so there's nothing to support any claim to notability, in any case. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:15, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

05:30:50, 19 February 2019 review of draft by Ngprasad


I HAVE PROVIDED COUPLE OF REFERENCES FROM THE MEDIA NEWS ABOUT CHENNAI SISTERS (THE HINDU & RAAGA.COM). STILL MY PAGE IS NOT APPROVED. LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE ON THIS.

Ngprasad (talk) 05:30, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ngprasad: - firstly, please don't use all caps, screaming will encourage reviewers to quickly examine your questions.
Secondly, as you're looking to see if the draft should now be approved with the additional sources (as opposed to the original review being wrong) you'll need to resubmit, in a similar fashion to how you uploaded it to AfC the first time. If you have trouble doing this then you can post a new comment below asking for help, or at the WP:TEAHOUSE or ask me on my talk page.
However, I would advise against it at the moment. Your Raaga reference is just a track/album listing - it doesn't provide any significant coverage on the artists. The Hindu source, while it would normally be well suited, only provides 3 lines on the Chennai sisters, which again, is not sufficient.
Your article suggests that they have been on international performances - depending on these came about - frequent trips/one or more big tours as opposed to occasional visits to other countries, it might satisfy notability in that fashion. Have a look for references that talk about their international performances. Preferably sources that discuss multiple performances, though if you can find reviews of several performances that would also do. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:23, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

A draft article I recently submitted was rejected with no reason given. Is there any way I can resubmit it?

08:48:24, 19 February 2019 review of submission by Sebdubois77


I have addressed all of the changes requested for this page. It was requested to only use “Dr” once and subject’s last name thereafter. Also, I converted all links to internal links as requested. Despite these numerous modifications, the entry was rejected. Please assist. I have worked hard to ensure I have addressed all concerns.

Sebdubois77 (talk) 08:48, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sebdubois77. I have returned the draft to the reviewing pool because the rejection may have been a technical error.
Despite your belief that you have addressed all concerns, many problems remain. There are external links in the body, such as Obesity Medicine & Nutrition Fellowship, Day League, American Board of Obesity Medicine, and Delta Airlines. Such links are not allowed. The draft is severely overlinked. Read MOS:LINK to gain an appreciation of what to link and what not to link.
The draft cites a large number of sources, and cites each only once. This can be an indication of several problems. It may be that no independent sources have written more than a few sentences about her. It may be that the draft relies too much on primary sources. It may be that the draft includes excessive detail. An encyclopedia summarizes, it doesn't list every publication someone has written for/been quoted in, every award someone has been honored with, or every committee they have co-chaired. The draft should hit the significant points in her life. This ties in with the draft's most serious problem, that the lead fails to tell the reader why she is notable. See WP:PROF for ways in which an academic can be notable, and decide what sources you need to cite to prove that she meets one or more of the criteria. WP:THREE may be a useful exercise to help you determine what is important. Then see MOS:LEAD for how to write the lead. As a final note for now, the citation of sources is sloppy. Some are bare urls, and others omit basic bibliographic information, such as the title of the article and page number on which the information appears. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:32, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 11:54:10, 19 February 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Encolpius 09


I see that the page has been declined for copyright issues, but I wrote this article and published license-free in another website. How can I show it?

Encolpius 09 (talk) 11:54, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The page you copied it from clearly states "Copyright © 2016 :: itchefs-GVCI" so we cannot accept it here. Theroadislong (talk) 13:10, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

12:03:44, 19 February 2019 review of draft by Prsbvlp


I have submitted a personal academic profile for review. I have noted in that in such cases often a grey box appears on the right hand side of the profile with a summary of key details and possibly also a photo. Please advise how I can design this part. Many thanks

Prsbvlp (talk) 12:03, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's called an infobox. The easy way to make one is find one on a similar topic, copy it and change the specifoc details. It goes at the beginning of the article. Note you should not be writing about yourself and any bio needs to meet WP:PROF Legacypac (talk) 19:01, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

13:16:26, 19 February 2019 review of submission by Bromalayan

13:44:32, 19 February 2019 review of submission by Juan Santo Domingo

Recently, I have asked a question regarding how to improve my draft article to make it suitable for publishing. I received great feedback from Legacypac and made the suggested changes, but now it turns out that there is no button to submit the draft anymore, and the page says it is redirected. I am quite lost, can I have some help? Juan Santo Domingo (talk) 13:44, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'll fix that. Just need to resubmit and recheck for copyvio. Legacypac (talk) 16:36, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Your article has been accepted here Molecular Layer Deposition. Theroadislong (talk) 16:54, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

review of submission by Thesachinsapkal

@Thesachinsapkal: I don't think there is much to add to the comments already made on your sandbox page. It's all unintelligible content. Please read Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not so that you have some idea of what Wikipedia is and isn't for. Nthep (talk) 18:21, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

16:03:37, 19 February 2019 review of submission by AndeeOleno


I want to find out specifically what needs to be added or changed in order to be listed on Wikipedia. AndeeOleno (talk) 16:03, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi AndeeOleno. No amount of editing can overcome a lack of notability. The topic is unsuitable for Wikipedia. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:21, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ramzan ismail786 (talk) 17:49, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Ramzan ismail786: a virtually blank page that appears to be an autobiography is not going to be accepted as a Wikipedia article. Please see Wikipedia:Autobiography as to why autobiographies are discouraged. Nthep (talk) 17:56, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 18:44:14, 19 February 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Eve Gabereau


I do not understand why the page I am trying to publish has been declined. It is an introduction to a trading company with international reach - modernfilms.com.

19:54:49, 19 February 2019 review of submission by AUColonist

I have created two articles, one for a person, and another for a film, both of which have been properly sourced. Both articles were then deleted with no explanation. I put a decent amount of work into both and I properly referenced all information. AUColonist (talk) 19:54, 19 February 2019 (UTC) Thank you, AUColonist[reply]

I can't figure out what drafts these are. Legacypac (talk) 01:58, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

They were for the following entries: Wes Phillips Dune (2020 film)

21:01:39, 19 February 2019 review of draft by Timetogetnasty


I would like to create an infobox and upload a logo for a product into it. Right now I just have a table in there but I realize that's not the same as the infobox I see on a lot of other articles. Thanks!

Timetogetnasty (talk) 21:01, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Copy an infobox from a company article and replace the data with the appropriate data here. The bigger issue is uou have no suitable reliable sources to support this page. Legacypac (talk) 02:02, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The first photo is indeed a studio photo, provided by my grandma years ago to my mom, I have another one but not very good quality from the spanish magazine primer plano.

Thanks Dan, Barbara and Yngvanottir for your updates and advises.
