[edit]06:02, 23 November 2024 review of submission by 117.230.15.250
[edit]This draft has 10 sources. 8 sources out of the 10 are from Bollywood Hungama, one from Times Now but still the draft was declined stating that it does not have reliable sources. In that way if we see one of the other shows in StarPlus Advocate Anjali Awasthi also has sources from Bollywood Hungama but still it's draft was moved to mainspace. Why this difference in perspectives by Wikipedia reviewers? 117.230.15.250 (talk) 06:02, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- The eight citations to Bollywood Hungama count as a single source. They don't have bylines, so were probably just picked up from press releases or feeds. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:49, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Why my Review of newly account rejected all the information about me in article is true and perfect Fazil Showkat Tantray (talk) 11:14, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- Fazil Showkat Tantray I fixed your link, you need the "Draft:" portion. Your draft was declined, not rejected. Rejected means that it could not be resubmitted. Declined means that it may be resubmitted(as you already did). Wikipedia is not a place for people to tell the world about themselves, please read the autobiography policy. 331dot (talk) 11:19, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Bonadea said that the source is unreliable, but the source that we using is in suki teenoi Wikipedia Thailand. Chonlawat Yongpraderm (talk) 12:58, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Chonlawat Yongpraderm: I think you misunderstood the "decline" notice. That sources must be reliable is only one of the requirements. The text in the notice says
the draft needs multiple published sources that are:
in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
strictly independent of the subject
Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting.
- Please follow the blue links in the list above, which will tell you what the requirements are. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 14:21, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]zafran brand is my company and i want to add my info wikipedia Sheikh Ashfakur Rahman (talk) 16:17, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Sheikh Ashfakur Rahman: I must warn you, you are very close to being blocked for spamming. I have deleted two of your adverts, and another administrator has deleted at least one more. Wikipedia is not a marketing channel for your business. Please stop now.
- Also, you must make a paid-editing disclosure as your very next edit. Instructions have been posted on your talk page. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:22, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
21:26, 23 November 2024 review of submission by Chamber Music Queen
[edit]I would like help in improving reliable sources Chamber Music Queen (talk) 21:26, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Chamber Music Queen! Can I suggest you begin by reading through referencing for beginners and using that to fix up the citations for the sources you currently have? While you're going through them, compare each of them to WP:42, the 'golden rule', which says you are looking for significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic. If you have questions after fixing the citations, please come back and ask; we'll be much more helpful if we can access the sources. StartGrammarTime (talk) 06:36, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
21:33, 23 November 2024 review of submission by Robert T. deGavre
[edit]I am trying to edit my AfC article on Chester Braddock deGavre. Previously the name of the draft appeared immediately when I logged in. Now the box is blank. When I type in the name of my draft , it appears in small type with a multitude of symbols. Where is the readable version which can be edited? Robert T. deGavre (talk) 21:33, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Robert T. deGavre, clicking on the link above (or here: Draft: Chester Braddock deGavre) is taking me to an editable version of the draft. If you click that link, does it get you to the draft that you want to work on? If not, can you be more specific about the blank box, and where you are typing? StartGrammarTime (talk) 06:08, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- thank you Robert T. deGavre (talk) 17:24, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
22:00, 23 November 2024 review of submission by Wangxun2
[edit]Hello, I'd like to add in a segment about Thomas Hastings starting Path and selling it to Sean Fanning later on. I have the escrow documents to prove it. It's not published in any news article so I cannot cite it, but can I still include this in the Wikipedia page? Wangxun2 (talk) 22:00, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- If you cannot provide a citation for something, it cannot be in an article. 331dot (talk) 22:03, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
22:34, 23 November 2024 review of submission by Jag612red
[edit]Need more reason about why my article was declined so I can fix this. I really want this to be published as the article doesn't exist yet if you can please tell me why that will be great. Also can you fix my map Jag612red (talk) 22:34, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Jag612red, the reviewer has been pretty specific about what you need to include - if you go to your draft and read through the big orange box at the top, you'll see there are links to help you assess whether your sources are independent and secondary (click those words to get to the right guidelines). If you still have questions after reading those, come on back! StartGrammarTime (talk) 06:29, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
(duplicated question moved to this section:) I dont understand why it was declined. Even though I used source multiple times its reliable and it has depth. It talks about the subject and I don't know what to fix. If anyone can help in what I am doing wrong it would help. Jag612red (talk) 22:42, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
(further question moved to this section:) Can someone fix my map in my infobox. I would appreciate it. Thank you. Jag612red (talk) 23:16, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Jag612red: all bar one of your sources are primary, and close to the subject (ie. not independent). We need to see multiple secondary sources that are reliable and independent and have provided significant coverage of the subject.
- What are you saying is wrong with the map? Seems fine to me. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:54, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
- What is bar one whichs one exactly are you talking about Jag612red (talk) 16:18, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
23:50, 23 November 2024 review of submission by AnimalNorth
[edit]- AnimalNorth (talk · contribs)
My sources are well proven to be reliable & durable sources yet is rejected. Is this a matter of syntax or some other issue.
If after 7 years of the links in this article are solid, why are they not qualified as reliable sources?
Please advise AnimalNorth (talk) 23:50, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- Fixed draft link. Kline • talk • contribs 23:53, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @AnimalNorth! Links to other Wikipedia articles aren't reliable because Wikipedia is not a reliable source. There's a lot of information in that link that will hopefully explain better than I can. What you can do is find the source the other Wikipedia article is citing, make sure it says what the article is telling you it says, and then use that source for your own draft. Just be warned that not all sources are created equal; before relying on a source, assess it against the triple criteria at WP:42, our 'golden rule'. If you still have questions after having a go at that, please do come back and we'll try to help answer them. StartGrammarTime (talk) 06:50, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
