Request on 04:51:21, 17 March 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Mrphilip


SOMEONE USED G12 Deletion three hours after you first left word on my first submission of this article. That review took less than 24 hours, no where near the proposed timeframe of up to 8 weeks given when submitted. WOW. Can't we fix this so I may continue to work on my article about a new part of the NIH which fact under the LGBT WIKIPROJECT Umbrella. Also, how do I add that link t my article? I forget.

Hello, is there any process to fast-track the review for this well-referenced article, thanks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:William_Nanda_Bissell

Ugneszewski (talk) 12:13, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What's your hurry, and what is your connection with him? I have removed a lot of promotional trumpery for you.Theroadislong (talk) 12:27, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

13:18:33, 17 March 2019 review of submission by PortlyJackson


I have modified the article to correct a citation to the principal notability reference. It now uses the correct magazine template. I have made statements concerning notability on the article's Talk page, specifically claims for 1st and 3rd notability inclusion criteria. Appreciate if you could re-review on the basis of the Talk page and updated article.

14:46:05, 17 March 2019 review of draft by Pequena Princesa


Very well I will not post the photo now and just try to get the draft approved by increasing the number of sources first. But I would never publish it without a photo, when all the artists have one: it would be insulting to the artist. So the issue is still live. By the way, the Voice-Tribune of Louisville have a great photo of Marisa in concert there which they took themselves: clear copyright. But they want to sell it for US$18. Does Wikipedia have a budget for that? If so, please tell me how to submit the claim for the Voice-Tribune. If wikipedia don't have a budget, wikipedia really need to change their policy and allow any photo already published where the publisher does not object to its use on wikipedia.org. Pequena Princesa (talk) 14:46, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Pequena Princesa: - Wikipedia doesn't buy copyright photos. Our photo rules, excepting a few fair use cases which don't apply here, have to have a broader license than I think would be the case if we opted just for the cases you propose. This is to let us make our information globally reusable - anyone is allowed to copy Wikipedia's data, and license changes would prevent that. Nosebagbear (talk) 07:46, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request for assistance

17:34:26, 17 March 2019 review of submission by Rumbidzainokutenda


Hi, i'm requesting for assistance because i'm new and i'm still learning . I have made some changes on my first article (Draft) , i really wanna know if there is other parts i should add or correct or just some advice you want to share with me

Rumbidzainokutenda (talk) 17:34, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid that as the note on your draft says "This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia." You have no independent reliable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 19:00, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
