07:11, 27 September 2023 review of submission by Jesse Paul Blue

Interested about citing sources. I have not quoted anyone in the article. do I still need to cite? If so what then? Jesse Paul Blue (talk) 07:11, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Jesse Paul Blue. As this is a biography of a living person, every material statement must be cited with an in-line reference. This is non-negotiable. Please have a read of WP:BLPRS and WP:INCITE, and for a tutorial on citing see WP:INTREFVE. Qcne (talk) 10:05, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

12:15, 27 September 2023 review of submission by Samaneh2894

Hi dears! In Help desk

Hope this message find you all well & in perfect heath.

I would like to inform you that I have just removed the external sources from the draft. But, I was not able to 1. find any unreliable references & 2. to understand tone of draft mentioned by the dear reviewer of the article as problems required to be fixed.

I have studied the relevant sessions on Wikipedia and found that my article is written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries are written, indeed, from a neutral point of view, with a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Would you please do me a favor and help me to resolve the problems in line with publishing my article on your useful free encyclopedia? Best Regards

 Samaneh2894 (talk) 12:15, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I gather that you are associated with this company. If so, please read about conflict of interest and paid editing(which includes employment) for information on required formal disclosures you must make.
You have a common misunderstanding about Wikipedia in that it is not a place to merely tell about a company and what it does. A Wikipedia article about a company must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. Your draft does not do that; Wikipedia wants to know what those unaffiliated with the company consider to be important/significant/influential about it, not merely what it does.
Please understand that the Persian Wikipedia is a different project, with its own editors and policies, and as such what is acceptable there may not be acceptable here, and vice versa. You may want to write this for the Persian Wikipedia. There is nothing special about the English Wikipedia, it is not the "premier" Wikipedia.
If you feel you have addressed the concerns of the reviewer, you may resubmit the draft. 331dot (talk) 12:22, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:09, 27 September 2023 review of submission by Sam Veroone

Hello,

One user declined my draft for the Suyin Aerts article. While in Dutch the same article has already been published. How can I get another user to review the draft so that not a single person has the decision-making power? And how can I directly answer the user on his rejection of the draft?

Thanks in advance.

Greetings,

Sam Veroone (talk) 13:09, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sam Veroone The Dutch Wikipedia is a separate project, with its own editors and policies. What is acceptable there is not necessarily acceptable here. The English version tends to be stricter than others.
You can communicate with the last reviewer directly on their user talk page. Click the word "talk" next to the reviewer's name in the box with the decline message. Typically, a different reviewer will review it if you make changes and resubmit. 331dot (talk) 13:13, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's clear. Thank you for your prompt response. Sam Veroone (talk) 13:19, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I would also have declined the draft, the content doesn't suggest that they are notable in Wikipedia terms. Theroadislong (talk) 13:29, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

14:10, 27 September 2023 review of submission by Carolinemoncure

My article was rejected so I made an edit and I *think* I resubmitted it. How can I tell if I have resubmitted for review? Carolinemoncure (talk) 14:10, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Carolinemoncure: yes, it has been submitted. You can tell by the big mustard-coloured box titled "Review waiting, please be patient." -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:14, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! Carolinemoncure (talk) 14:41, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

15:00, 27 September 2023 review of submission by MilesJ22

Subject: Inquiry Regarding Rejection of Wikipedia Submission

Dear Wikipedia Editor,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to seek clarification on the rejection of my recent submission to Wikipedia, as I am eager to understand the reasons behind the decision and, more importantly, to rectify any issues identified.

The rejection notice stated that the draft lacked references demonstrating the subject's qualification for a Wikipedia article. Specifically, it was mentioned that the references should be in-depth, reliable, secondary, and strictly independent of the subject. I appreciate the importance of adhering to these criteria for the credibility and neutrality of Wikipedia articles.

Additionally, I noted the feedback regarding the submission potentially reading more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. I understand the significance of maintaining a neutral point of view and referencing a range of independent, reliable, published sources to establish notability and meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy.

I am committed to ensuring that my submission aligns with Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. To facilitate this, could you kindly provide more specific feedback on the shortcomings of my initial submission? This would greatly assist me in understanding the areas that require improvement.

Furthermore, if you could offer any guidance or suggestions on how to enhance the submission properly, I would be extremely grateful. I am dedicated to contributing to Wikipedia in a manner that upholds its standards and values, and your assistance in this matter would be invaluable.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your guidance on how to revise and resubmit my entry appropriately. MilesJ22 (talk) 15:00, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MilesJ22 Discussing this with the declining editor will be the most use.
What I see is a lack of useful references. To remind you, ee require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS please. See WP:42. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact referred to, that meet these tough criteria is likely to allow this article to remain. Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the topic is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today.
I have not looked at the way it is written. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 15:05, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MilesJ22: just for the record, your first attempt was rejected, and subsequently deleted, as a copyright violation. Your second attempt was only declined, but also deleted, for being promotional. The third one has also only been declined (not rejected). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:10, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:16, 27 September 2023 review of submission by 173.174.211.237

Hi Help Desk: What do I need to do to improve this new article to make it publish worthy? Thank you in advance for your help. PS: I did read the guidelines before submitting the draft, but I could use some help. :) 173.174.211.237 (talk) 17:16, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Remove all citations to unreliable sources, such as iMDB. Remove all sources that are adverts, such as the Stormchasersusa one. Remove any sources which are not independent, such as the StockFootage one (Wikipedia basically isn't interested in what the subject says or wants to say). Wherever you have multiple sources supporting a single claim, remove all but one - choose the strongest, according to the golden rule.
Doing this may not get the draft all the to an acceptable state, but it will stop it looking like a "can't find any high-quality references, so I'll pack it with dozens of feeble ones to make it look impressive". ColinFine (talk) 19:33, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:XERI_MUSIC/sandbox

These was the article was i was creating on my sandbox but I can't add links like YouTube links or external links when I added the links it's saving and publishing for review please can anyone help out with this XERI MUSIC (talk) 17:37, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@XERI MUSIC: I don't know what problem you're experiencing, or even what exactly you're asking, but I'd say your main challenge is demonstrating notability, of which there is no sign at the moment. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:58, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. The only sources that matter at this stage are ones that meet those criteria (see Golden rule. External links to YouTube are almost certainly completely irrelevant.
Wikipedia doesn't want links to the song: it wants citations to in-depth reviews published in reliable sources. ColinFine (talk) 19:37, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:41, 27 September 2023 review of submission by Jellybull

I don't know, what I'm missing! I've got in depth, reliable & independent! What else does it need? Jellybull (talk) 17:41, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Courtesy link: Draft:The Scratch 3.0 Show
As the draft has been rejected, you will need to contact the rejecting reviewer directly, usually through their talk page. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 17:53, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Jellybull I will go through your sources one by one:
1) A WP:PRIMARY source, so not independent
2) A WP:PRIMARY source, so not independent
3) A WP:PRIMARY source, so not independent
4) A WP:PRIMARY source, so not independent
So, could you explain how you think your four sources are "independent"? Qcne (talk) 18:22, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:41, 27 September 2023 review of submission by Simogasp

Hello, I still do not understand why the article has been continuously refused. The content is factual and supported by ~30 references of scientific, peer-reviewed papers published in international conferences or international journals. Each of them cites the software as it has been used in their work. Frankly, I don't know what could be done more to meet the standard. Simogasp (talk) 17:41, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Simogasp: as this draft has been rejected, you will need to make your case directly to the rejecting reviewer. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:45, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
One reviewer said "Peer review does not make a secondary sources (with the exception of 'review articles' in special journals which usually have the word 'review' in the title). [2] These independent academic journal articles appear to mention the subject only in passing. We require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject (per WP:GNG)". The mere use of the software does not make it notable. 331dot (talk) 18:30, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your answer. I can add a bunch of scientific peer-reviewed papers (conferences and journals) that provide direct comparisons between Alicevision and other commercial or open-source similar software in terms of quality of results. Would that help to improve the reliability of the sources? Simogasp (talk) 16:23, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

18:21, 27 September 2023 review of submission by MARIATINEOOO

Hello, I added more information to what I've written. Is there anything else that I need to improve? MARIATINEOOO (talk) 18:21, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MARIATINEOOO: this draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:24, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

18:52, 27 September 2023 review of submission by 217.155.50.169

I feel that the last feedback, "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources"

I unfair and does not qualify on reasonable grounds for rejection.

Can you please advise. Best wishes, Holly 217.155.50.169 (talk) 18:52, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Holly, did you read the decline notice left by the reviewer? "All statements need to be sourced, such as the year of birth, and the entire early life section. WP:External links should be removed or converted to inline citations where appropriate". For the guidelines, please carefully read WP:BLP.
This draft was therefore declined appropriately, but you are welcome to address the issues and resubmit by clicking the big blue Resubmit button. Qcne (talk) 18:54, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

19:13, 27 September 2023 review of submission by 2603:6081:F05:7700:8C37:6404:3A43:39F7

It has been rejected twice, and I would like some help to fix it so it shall not be rejected thrice. 2603:6081:F05:7700:8C37:6404:3A43:39F7 (talk) 19:13, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi IP editor. It's only been declined, not rejected, which means you can re-submit once you've addressed the issues. Your sources aren't great: only #5 and #6 are secondary sources- all the rest are WP:PRIMARY which does not count towards the criteria set out in WP:NBOOK. You need to find significant coverage in secondary sources, or prove how it meets another WP:NBOOK criteria. I'll also note that those two sources aren't formatted well and it is going to be harder to verify them. Can you please provide ISBN number for the T.S. Elliot book, and possibly an archive link for the newspaper article? Qcne (talk) 19:41, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

19:20, 27 September 2023 review of submission by DWBarbour

I submitted this page recently and it was rejected. I would love some guidance as to why, as I am more willing to adjust it.

I also have another, odder question. This was prepared by a number of people who are acquainted with David Young, a published poet of note. As a favor, I made the submission. After it was rejected, David Young -- with whom I have never been in direct contact -- received an email from a person named Laura N. Walters. She was aware that the submission had been rejected and offered to consult on fixing it for a fee of $380. Is this how Wikipedia usually does business? I am particularly baffled as to how Ms. Walters found Mr Young, especially as he is quite ill. Any guidance you can provide is welcome. Thanks.

David Barbour DWBarbour (talk) 19:20, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @DWBarbour.
Firstly, the "pay money to ensure your article is approved" is a common scam and absolutely not how Wikipedia operates. Please see WP:SCAM. I'm sorry that he had this interaction with a scammer- as Wikipedia edits and logs are all public, it is fairly trivial for scam rings to follow an article and backtrace to try and extort the subject.
Articles about poets need to pass the WP:NBASIC or specifically the WP:NPOET criteria. The easiest way to pass this criteria is to find reliable, independent, secondary sources that cover David in detail, and then summarise them in your own words. That should make up the content of the article draft. Note that the sources must be:
- Reliable: strong, reliable sources that are published by reputable institutions. Primary sources can be used for basic facts (such as a date of birth), but they should be supplemented with strong secondary sources that offer analysis or interpretation.
- Independent: independent of the subject, for example not interviews, self-published, or from the subject's own website.
- Show significant coverage: discussed in detail in the sources you find. The sources should provide in-depth information or analysis about the subject, going beyond basic facts or promotional material.
- From multiple places: ideally at least three separate reliable, independent, secondary sources that discuss your subject.
- Not original research: Wikipedia articles should summarise existing knowledge about a subject, not present new research. This means you should avoid drawing your own conclusions or analyses from the sources. Stick to summarising what the sources say in a neutral tone.
Remember that the article should be written from a Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
Hope that helps, Qcne (talk) 19:35, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, here's the actual link to your draft, @DWBarbour: Draft:David_Young. It has not been rejected, only declined (by me, in fact!). You have zero sources, so please have a read of WP:VERIFY and WP:BLPRS which explains that all articles must be sourced as my guidance above, and this is particularly strict for articles about living people. Qcne (talk) 19:37, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, that's a relief about the scam. But when you say there are zero sources, there are, in fact 11 footnotes that to my mind seem to fulfill the criteria you are looking for. They include several journals and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial foundation. His books are linked to well-known publishers, including Alfred A Knopf and several leading university presses. There are no direct quotes in the entry. Can you give me a clue? DWBarbour (talk) 14:29, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@DWBarbour: there are indeed 11 items listed, which probably are the 'footnotes' you refer to; it's just that they blend into the 'Literary Criticism' section so can be hard to spot.
Please see WP:REFB for advice on correct referencing using the preferred system of dynamic (as opposed to manually-numbered and rigid, as it is now) inline citations and footnotes. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:37, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi again @DWBarbour. This is my fault, then- your footnotes were directly under the bullet points in the Literary Criticism and I mistook them for a continuation of those bullets. Usually we'd see the references in the empty References section below it. As it was empty, and you had plain text inline citations, I thought there were no references. Sorry about that.
There's a tutorial for creating proper inline citations at WP:INTREFVE which I'd recommend you follow to set up the in-line citations correctly. It will automatically generate a reference list for you.
Do that, and then re-submit. Qcne (talk) 14:42, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, really my mistake. Thanks for the clarification. I'll fix it up over the weekend and resubmit. DWBarbour (talk) 15:08, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

21:15, 27 September 2023 review of submission by XERI MUSIC

I want to add more notable sources but only these are the sources I could find on the internet and I wanted to improve more by writing lot more i wanted to know the notable sources I found on the internet are all true and then why my article was rejected. XERI MUSIC (talk) 21:15, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. The song does not meet Wikipedia's special definition of a a notable song. If the sources do not exist, as you claim, no amount of editing can confer notability. 331dot (talk) 21:27, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

21:21, 27 September 2023 review of submission by 78.82.216.152

Today I have made several edits and some clean-ups. I need help to understand if I am going in the right direction. 78.82.216.152 (talk) 21:21, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know what direction you're going in, but there are certainly several issues to sort out.
First and foremost, the draft seems to include content copied from external sources, which needs to be cleaned up. Please see WP:CV for important information on copyright violations.
Secondly, assuming you're Derekhal22 (in which case, please log into your account when editing), you need to respond to the paid-editing query on your user talk page before doing anything else.
And as to your draft, there is no indication that the subject is notable, which is why it has been declined. The draft is also promotional in both tone and content. HTH, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:48, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I will check this out. It would help if you could show me an example, and also to advise how that example should be writtten. Derekhal22 (talk) 20:04, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The thing to remember, Derekhal22, is that Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. It looks to me as if (like most beginners) you have written the article BACKWARDS. ColinFine (talk) 18:10, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

03:24, 28 September 2023 review of submission by Redyr iksachli

The draft keeps getting rejected through the citations and sources of which I have changed much times, though this rejection I have just gotten is saying I don’t have enough sources (basically). Though for a topic on such a small in engagement in a relatively ill known war I can’t have that much sources for it. Redyr iksachli (talk) 03:24, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redyr iksachli, if there are insufficient sources devoting significant coverage to this battle, then the best course of action is to cover the battle in Russo-Swedish War (1741–1743). Cullen328 (talk) 04:30, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You will need to provide vastly better quality references to reliable, independent sources devoting significant coverage to this 14 year old.

Let me know hoe to create Wikipedia page, from which after searching in google our information will be available. Priyal Pathade (talk) 05:40, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Priyal Pathade: you can find everything you need to get started at WP:YFA. We have nothing to do with Google, however, so whether their search finds any given article or not is up to them.
And seeing as you say "our information", you should probably take a look at WP:COI, WP:PROMO and WP:OWN, to better understand how Wikipedia works, ideally before you even get started. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:45, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Creating first article

Hi, i have tried creating a new article of a living person named Charles Mashahary who is a Bodo singer, songwriter and also i have searched and added the notable sources and still finding more to add on it can anyone please help me out as my sources are sufficient or not or should I have to change something. Thank you!!! XERI MUSIC (talk) 06:17, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@XERI MUSIC: I've just declined  Courtesy link: Draft:Charles Mashahary for insufficient referencing. Among other problems with it, please note that IMDb is not a reliable source, as it is user-generated.
My advice would be to concentrate on just one draft, so that you learn to understand how articles are written and what makes them acceptable for publication. Once you've mastered that, you can then create more on other topics. Otherwise this whole thing is going to spin out of control – you now have five drafts, all with the same sort of problems, most of which could have been avoided if you'd created them sequentially rather than all at once.
But regardless, the first thing you need to do is respond to the conflict-of-interest / paid editing queries on your talk page. Please do that before any other editing. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:45, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, DoubleGrazing i really liked ur advise and I will really be helpful for improving my articles yeah I have interesting writing or editing article about music and artist's I love but I'm not paid for to write for anyone I'm just creating an article on topic about Bodo song's or Bodo Artist's and i have also tried searching for every news sources.

@XERI MUSIC: you simply link to it with an internal link, like [[File:imagename]].
For basic editing questions like that, you can ask eg. at the Help desk or the Teahouse. This AfC help desk is for drafts undergoing the AfC review process, on which images and other optional 'bells & whistles' have no bearing. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:44, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @XERI MUSIC. I am afraid that draft is not suitable for Wikipedia at this time and the rejection is correct. Please closely read the WP:NMUSIC guidelines. The only source you have that is of any use is savaalmagazine, and that's a PR piece so not actually very useful. All your other sources are either WP:PRIMARY (so useless to establish notability) or not reliable. Sorry. Qcne (talk) 08:28, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

why this page was declined Nameiscs (talk) 11:31, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Nameiscs: it was declined for the reasons given in the decline notice(s), which you presumably saw before you deleted them?
It has also been previously rejected already – twice – so you shouldn't really have resubmitted it in any case. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:34, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

15:04, 28 September 2023 review of submission by Tea And Biscuits 123

I am unsure which reliable sources I can add for this page creation. I am creating this page on behalf of the person - Boris Hiestand - and all information has been cross checked by him before the submission. Boris Hiestand has a NL Wiki page already (https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boris_Hiestand) so the information on that has been copied across to the English version that I am creating (not including the Dutch language articles). The reasons that I had for the denied page creation are below: This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you. Tea And Biscuits 123 (talk) 15:04, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Tea And Biscuits 123: firstly, we're not interested in what Hiestand has told you about himself, we're interested in what reliable and independent published sources have said about him. You need to write this article by summarising such sources, and citing them against the information they've provided.
Secondly, whether there exists in the Dutch Wikipedia an article on this subject is immaterial in what comes to the prospects of its acceptance in the English-language one. Each language version is a completely separate project with their own policies and requirements. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:14, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Tea And Biscuits 123: as for the reasons for declining this draft, these are two-fold:
  1. We need to see that the subject is notable, which usually requires sources that satisfy the WP:GNG notability standard, meaning multiple secondary sources which are independent and reliable, and which have provided significant coverage of the subject. Of the 46 (!) citations, at most one meets this standard, and it alone isn't enough (and is in any case a bit borderline IMO).
  2. We also need to have all material statements and anything potentially contentious clearly supported by inline citations to reliable published sources. Currently much of the content is not referenced at all, and many of the citations are to unreliable sources, esp. IMDb.
HTH, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:18, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
At least 40+ sources are to IMDb, please remove all references to IMDb it is NOT a reliable source see WP:IMDB. Theroadislong (talk) 16:28, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16:43, 28 September 2023 review of submission by Jonjonalvarez

This is a summary of each year of what President Nayib Bukele said in each UN assembly, a reference to each speech is also attached and it is also very important for young Salvadorans who seek information about history and the presidential periods of Nayib Bukele, it is a very important article, I don't know why you think it is not important, I would like to know. Jonjonalvarez (talk) 16:43, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Jonjonalvarez: Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, not a catalogue of someone's speeches or travels or appointments, etc. If you can find independent and reliable secondary sources that have analysed Bukele's speeches and/or discussed their importance, etc., then you may summarise those, citing the said sources, and possibly end up with an encyclopaedic article which could be accepted. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:50, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Correct, as an encyclopedia it contains historical events of importance. I am adding information about a president's speech in United Nations.

If Wikipedia is not to contain such important events about politicians, how is it possible there is an article titled “Chavez 2006 speech at UN” or “2022 Joe Biden speech in Warsaw” which is not only a summary, it contains president’s Biden whole speech. What about the article called “Speeches of Barack Obama” which contains remarks on more than 25 speeches of president Obama.

Why am I being censored under arguments that are not applied to all the platform?

23:26, 28 September 2023 review of submission by Atomkronos

Hello, I worked really hard on this submission, and listed more than 10 reliable sources for this entry. I have seen numerous other submissions with way less references and worse formatting, that have been granted. Can you please explain what to do to get this submission granted? I would really appreciate you help. Thank you Atomkronos (talk) 23:26, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Atomkronos Please see other stuff exists. It could be that these other articles you have seen are also inappropriate and simply not addressed yet. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible for inappropriate content to get by us. That an article exists does not mean that it was approved by anyone. We can only address what we know about. If you want to help us out, you can identify these other articles you have seen for possible action. We need the help. If you want to use other articles as a model or example, use those classified as good articles, which have been vetted by the community.
Regarding your draft, the sources you have offered do not have significant coverage of Alex Theory or what makes him important/significant/influential(what we call notability) as independent reliable sources that can be summarized see it. Unless you have that, Mr. Theory would not merit a Wikipedia article at this time. 331dot (talk) 23:56, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Jorgefdez7777 What is your connection with Marta Maldonado? You must have one since you took an image of her in her studio. 331dot (talk) 08:42, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
She has been my art professor for more than ten years. I also do web pages so i have done her webpage www.martamaldonado.com Jorgefdez7777 (talk) 09:32, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So she's more than someone you admire(as you state on your user page). At a minimum, you need to declare a conflict of interest(click for instructions). If you are compensated by her for creating her website and/or editing for her, you must make a paid editing disclosure. The compensation does not have to be money, it can be a grade, consideration for a job, or anything at all you receive for your editing or website work. 331dot (talk) 09:34, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do not get paid by her in any way, i am not professional. I do it a favor and as a student getting into new projects is good. I will state the COI... Jorgefdez7777 (talk) 09:37, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. The main issue with the draft is that it is not written in an encyclopedic style. I would suggest that you look at some articles about artists(preferably those classified as good) to get an idea of what is being looked for.
Not related to the draft itself, but it's curious that she would want to release her work under Wikipedia's license, which permits reuse for any purpose with attribution- this would mean people could take copies of this work and sell them(say, printed on clothing) and she would not be entitled to any money from the use of her work. However, this is certainly her choice. 331dot (talk) 09:46, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I understand the reasons for rejection. womENcourage is an event similar to Richard Tapia Celebration of Diversity in Computing and Grace Hopper Celebration of Women in Computing (although it's newer). I've tried following the same structure and style as the other events hoping that's what it should look like and I would really appreciate some more specific tips to get it accepted. Maria Andreina Francisco (talk) 17:13, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Maria Andreina Francisco We don't need the whole URL when you link to another Wikipedia article or page, simply place the title of the target page in double brackets, as I've done here.
Your draft was declined, not rejected. "Rejected" has a specific meaning here, that a draft may not be resubmitted. Declined means that a draft may be resubmitted.
Please read other stuff exists. The existence of other articles has little bearing on your draft. It could be that these other articles are also inappropriate and simply not addressed yet. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible for inappropriate articles to go undetected, even for years. We can only address what we know about. If you want to use other articles as a model, use those classified as good articles, which have been checked by the community.
The main issue with your draft is does little more than tell of the existence of this conference. An article must summarize what independent reliable sources say is important/significant/influential about this event- what we call notability(see the definition of a notable event). 331dot (talk) 17:30, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid that not one word of the paragraph above has anything to do with notability in Wikipedia's special sense, which is about whether wholly independent commentators have published enough about the subject (in reliable sources) to provide the content of an article. Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. ColinFine (talk) 18:26, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The reason to reject is that there is no evidence of notability. Just because a person exists, and has released a couple of songs, is not what we're looking for.

No, sources can be in Russian, but it's going to be difficult for a reviewer to evaluate them unless they know Russian, which probably few if any reviewers do. It might help if more of the sources were online. Have you published this on the Russian Wikipedia? 331dot (talk) 23:11, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Although both offline sources and non-English ones are acceptable, you could help the reviewers a lot by giving better indication of what the sources are that you're citing. I understand that publication names may need to be in the original language, spelled in Cyrillic script, but there is no reason why the meta information (eg. "Стр" for 'page') has to be. You could also provide an English translation of the title, and possibly a short quote of what the source says. ISBN numbers should be entered correctly so that they become easily searchable. And if there is an online version of the source available, please cite that instead. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:38, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

11:27, 2 October 2023 review of submission by Charlie Rosenbaum

Hi there,

Hope you are doing well. I submitted an article for review and the did not approved it. I am not sure what to write the article right way and resubmit it. Please help me to write and resubmit the article.

Kindly Charlie Rosenbaum (talk) 11:27, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Charlie Rosenbaum: firstly, please see WP:AUTOBIO for all the reasons why you shouldn't be writing about yourself.
If you still plan to go ahead, then see WP:GNG for the main notability guideline, which your draft must meet in order to be accepted. Basically, this requires significant coverage in multiple secondary sources that are reliable and independent of the subject.
See also WP:BLP for the referencing etc. rules applicable to articles on living people. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:41, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:34, 2 October 2023 review of submission by Record straighter setter

Can you please instruct me how to change my article established in German Wiki to get accepted in English - thanks a lot for your assistance! Record straighter setter (talk) 17:34, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Courtesy link: Draft:Günther Knör -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:31, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Record straighter setter: you need to show that the subject is notable by either the WP:GNG or WP:NACADEMIC standard, and also to make sure that pretty much everything you say is supported by inline citations to reliable published sources. (And just for clarity, whether or not this is "established in German Wiki" is irrelevant in what comes to its prospects for being accepted into the English-language Wikipedia.) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:35, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

18:41, 2 October 2023 review of submission by HAMZJAHANZEB

I am wanting to ask if I have enough sources here to back claims. There are lots of references, and I wanted to ensure that I do not get rejected on that basis.

Can you kindly provide me with some feedback?

Very best, HAMZJAHANZEB (talk) 18:41, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@HAMZJAHANZEB: I'm not quite sure what you're asking. This draft was declined for inadequate referencing. You haven't since made any improvements, yet you're asking if you have enough references. No; self-evidently, you don't. You are citing three sources, with four citations in total. I would not call that "lots of references" by any measure. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:48, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Page declined Why did my page submission get declined? CodesonCanvas (talk) 21:50, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It has no independent sources, is blatant advertising and zero indication of notability. Theroadislong (talk) 21:52, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

21:58, 2 October 2023 review of submission by Mronzon

Hello! Been trying to get this article approved for quite some time, any help would be greatly appreciated. It keeps getting rejected because of the validity of the sources, but all sources included are from reputable sites. Mronzon (talk) 21:58, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The draft was declined, not rejected. Rejected has a specific meaning here, that a draft may not be resubmitted; declined means it may be resubmitted.
The validity or reputability of the sources is not the issue, their content is the issue. The draft must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about him; you have largely just documented his activities. 331dot (talk) 23:08, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Basava Vinay Vp Writer: you don't ask a question, but this draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further. If you want to tell the world about yourself, open up a blog or join some social media platform. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:43, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

06:30, 3 October 2023 review of submission by Origagari

Hi Greenman how are you? I respect your comment, but this is not a promotional entry. The person concerned only operates in Turkey, but I made an entry in English. This is not for promotional purposes. He is also the brother of the previous finance minister. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nureddin_Nebati) Can you help with publication at this point? Good work. Origagari (talk) 06:30, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Origagari: there is nothing of encyclopaedic value in this draft, and it all seems to come from you or the subject or some other non-independent party, as opposed to being a summary of reliable published sources. Therefore, I'd say it very much is WP:YESPROMO. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:09, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Could you please explain why my article submission was declined? Iohannz (talk) 09:57, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The reviewer left you a message on the draft as to why it was declined(not only the box at the top, but a message directly underneath it). Please review it carefully. Do you have more specfic questions about it?
Please detail your relationship with Gengiuri; you must have one since you took an image of her. 331dot (talk) 09:59, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The photo was needed for a website development I took part Iohannz (talk) 10:19, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That doesn't really answer my question, but if you have an association with her, you need to declare a conflict of interest. 331dot (talk) 10:20, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
