May 3

Request on 07:17:47, 3 May 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by CCFBROWN


An article about Cambodian Children's Fund (CCF) Founder and Executive Director, Scott Neeson, has been declined on the basis of not having enough content. The article has much more content than other similar articles (i.e. Scott Harrison). It was suggested that more information be added to the CCF page instead. Can the Scott Neeson article get approval if more content is added? Is there a specific type of content that is missing.

The previous article (later deleted due to referencing) did not have as much content as this current one.

Thank you for your help. CCFBROWN (talk) 07:17, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

08:51:30, 3 May 2019 review of submission by LewisManz


LewisManz (talk) 08:51, 3 May 2019 (UTC) I'm trying my hardest to make it neutral and not like an advert, I thought my 3rd iteration as better than my first and second, but now it has been completely denied. Should I return to the 2nd iteration and try reworking again?[reply]

Thanks in advance

Hi LewisManz. No, stop working on the draft. The company is not notable. Any article about it could only be promotional. Rejection is meant to be final, to convey that no amount of editing will make the topic acceptable. If you're here to build an encyclopedia, you're welcome to edit something else. See Wikipedia:Community portal for ways to help. --Worldbruce (talk) 12:25, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

11:21:28, 3 May 2019 review of submission by Badal Saboo - Connect the dots


We have made the required changes with the inclusion of appropriate references. Badal Saboo - Connect the dots (talk) 11:21, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Badal Saboo - Connect the dots: - there's a few issues here, both with the draft and with your username/activity.
Critically, your phrasing indicates that you have paid involvement/employment with the site. Please have a read of [1] which sets out how to disclose these links. Disclosure is obligatory if there is any paid connection, even if you aren't specifically linked (such as an employee or intern doing it in their own time)
You also have said "we have made" - wikipedia accounts need to be individual. So if you're in a team, each member who edits Wikipedia will need to have an account (e.g. Worker1@Badal Saboo) etc. (You can pick whatever you feel like)
In relation to the draft, it currently reads heavily as a press release, rather than a neutral generalised report on the subject.
The draft also only has 1 reference atm, and in almost all circumstances more are needed - 3 high quality ones is best.
Please let me know, or ask at the Teahouse if you are having difficulties with the first two aspects. Nosebagbear (talk) 12:17, 3 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

19:55:05, 3 May 2019 review of submission by OR Marine Reserves


I'm trying to update the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's page by creating pages for each of the marine reserves (they are listed, but say that a page hasn't been created for any other than one - Cape Falcon Marine Reserve). I tried to create one for Cape Perpetua Marine Reserve, but was declined because a page for Cape Perpetua already exists. "Cape Perpetua" is a general region, versus "Cape Perpetua Marine Reserve" is a place overseen by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. Any ideas to help get these pages created under the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's page would be helpful. Thank you!

Hi ShyhBCRaps. The musician is not notable (not suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia). Rejection of the draft is meant to be final, to convey that no amount of editing will make the topic acceptable here.

19:25:36, 4 May 2019 review of draft by HirmizM

The webpage keeps saying I need to add inline citations, however, I already have multiple citations in the page. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

HirmizM (talk) 19:25, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@HirmizM: - hi, as far as I can tell, you haven't been declined since January. At that point, your sources weren't inline but instead were general - that is, you had a list of sources at the bottom that applied to the whole page, but not linked to specific statements (which appear as the blue numbers).
You've now done that, so that decline reason wouldn't apply.
You do need to resubmit it, and then it will be reviewed in the fullness to time (there's currently a long backlog I'm afraid - the yellow box will indicate roughly how long, though some are done much more quickly). Nosebagbear (talk) 19:31, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It would benefit from more independent reliable sources. The New York Times source is only a passing mention and the Daily Mail is not a great quality source. The 2 Times-Picayune sources are OK. -Lopifalko (talk) 10:35, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Am unable to over-ride previous draft post that was rejected by editors for new once. Kindly help out with correction... koya (talk) 14:51, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Webplanet12345. Sure, glad to help. I've corrected the draft by removing the masses of unsupported content, and have added a few sources that were missing, about his arrest on suspicion of DUI. That seems to be the only thing in his life that has attracted much attention from reliable sources. It probably isn't enough to justify an encyclopedia article about him. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:22, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Are you able to add any inline sources? The sources that the article already has only apply to the article in general, rather to any of its specific information, and as such are not as valuable. -Lopifalko (talk) 10:19, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

04:46:51, 6 May 2019 review of submission by Krutika Samnani


I had given this draft again for re-review? Why wasn't it taken for re-review?

Krutika Samnani (talk) 04:46, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Krutika Samnani: You have been instructed to declare your paid editing, which you have done (thank you), but not done correctly. If English is not your first language, you may find it almost impossible to contribute constructively.
Draft:Crave Eatables cites a listing in an indiscriminate directory that aims to list all companies, and an advertorial by The Indian Express's Team RED. ("Team RED of the Express Group empowers your brand with holistic brand solutions. Encompassing print, multimedia, digital, events, books, innovative packages and consumer interaction, RED creates dynamic tailor-made solutions to leverage your brand identity.") Such sources do nothing to establish notability
The draft was declined four times for failing to demonstrate notability and finally rejected for being about a non-notable topic. You've asked for help twice on your talk page, four times at the Teahouse, and four times at the AfC Help Desk. You've been advised by a dozen highly experience volunteers: 331dot, Pythoncoder, Theroadislong, David Biddulph, GreenMeansGo, Marchjuly, SamHolt6, Phospheros, Alpha3031, Gronk Oz, ColinFine, and myself.
No amount of editing will produce an article about Crave Eatables that can be published on Wikipedia, so stop trying to use the encyclopedia as part of your marketing strategy. As stated in WP:PAYTALK, paid editors who refuse to accept a consensus may find themselves in violation of the disruptive-editing guideline. That can lead to loss of editing privileges, and possibly other sanctions. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:49, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

05:45:18, 6 May 2019 review of submission by Routerdude


Hello,

I've created a page a couple of months ago but it was rejected for insufficient information. I have since added more info and would like to request another review. The link to the draft is here. Routerdude (talk) 05:45, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Routerdude: - hi there. It does have more information, unfortunately your sources can't be considered independent - as far as I can tell they're all linked to selling products/services - and thus have a vested interest in positive (or occasionally negative) portrayal of relevant companies. "Notable" (the grounds for the rejection) require sources that are "in-depth, reliable, independent, secondary" - the first is somewhat a judgement call, but is a couple of paragraphs upwards. It's the 2nd and 3rd that are tricky - Using independent sources is a reasonably easy read, Wikipedia:Verifiability (which covers reliability) is long - sections 2 & 3 are all that's needed.
However, before leaping into that, take a 4 minute look to see if you can find any sources that aren't likely to be inherently biased, remember to have a look in google books and things like that. If you can't then it may be impossible to prove notability Nosebagbear (talk) 10:23, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The collective wisdom is that the company is not notable (not suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia). No amount of editing will make the draft acceptable. See WP:BFAQ#COMPANY for more information. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:19, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello - I do not understand what is needed for this page nor why it keeps getting denied. The last denial stated to fix the redactions (I've already done that previously) and explain what the copyvio did? I have no idea what that means. The content that was claimed to have been plagiarized came directly from the school's website and referred to the original location of the school and also to the official names of several awards won. I changed the wording on the school's location and it't still denied. I'm new at this and could use some help here. Thanks?! Lambdeb (talk) 18:20, 6 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I would love to have another set of eyes review the updated draft page for Hitendra Wadhwa, as I've tried to use feedback provided by Worldbruce, which was super helpful in addressing the previous feedback by other reviewers in terms of tone and notability.

08:03:23, 7 May 2019 review of draft by Manager1kz


Good day. Please help with review my article. Most of the sources are in Russian. Concerning notability: his books received significant critical attention in the oldest specialized newspaper - Literaturnaya Gazeta (1) and other journals: Izvestia (2), Zinziver (3) + 4, 5 and etc. Manager1kz (talk) 08:03, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Manadr1kz. The sourcing being in Russian isn't an issue. The only issue is that often English speaking reviewers tend to have difficulty reviewing the reliability of these sources, which is why it can take a bit longer to review. Hopefully someone will get to it soon. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 18:50, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

09:52:55, 7 May 2019 review of submission by Tle003


Tle003 (talk) 09:52, 7 May 2019 (UTC) I have created a wikipedia article that has been given start-class status on Schoenus compar. I want to move this article to be accessible to the public, but I am unable to do that. I think that it is because it might be classified under hidden content.[reply]

I recently also published an article on a similar species (Schoenus quartziticus, that was immediately accessible to the public once it was given stub-class status, so I know that this process can be very quick.

Tle003 (talk) 09:52, 7 May 2019 (UTC)tle003[reply]

@Tle003: - hi there, the article is just awaiting patrolling which happens to all new articles. It's relatively quick in most cases but can take a couple of weeks. Some patrollers work their way down the queue (oldest first), others watch the new articles come in (which is why your other article was patrolled so rapidly). It is publically accessible, it just won't be indexed by google just yet. It has a grade from the AfC reviewer, I believe.
Once it's been patrolled it's just a matter of google's spiders sweeping for new articles, which we can't alter, but is relatively frequently. Nosebagbear (talk) 10:29, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

14:08:29, 7 May 2019 review of submission by Gruznov


In February, I submitted two drafts (Draft:Almaz Capital & Draft:Alexander Galitsky) for restoration. These are translations of articles that have long existed in the Ru-wiki (Almaz Capital Partners & Александр Галицкий) and the wiki-importance of which is not in doubt. Since I acted as a paid editor, these articles had to go through the draft stage. Unfortunately, the procedure does not work properly. The article about Alexander Galitsky cannot be reviewed for 2.5 months, and the article about the Fund was rejected at the end of March without a proper explanation. At the beginning of April, I answered in detail on the page of the article why this decision was hasty and erroneous, but I did not receive any reaction within a month. Now I ask you to give the submission another ten minutes and consider it based on the merits. Gruznov (talk) 14:08, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gruznov: I advise patience. Larger drafts submitted to AfC often take longer than the already-long 2 month wait period, and the articles you imported from ru.wiki certainly fall into this category. Post-2018 en.wiki also has a much more stringent criteria for notable companies than any other Wiki, and this adds time to the AfC process. In addition, note that the vast majority of AfC participants are volunteers, and cannot be expected to keep pace with a paid editor's timetable. As for the rejection of your draft at Draft:Almaz Capital, that is for you to hash out with K.e.coffman. Best. SamHolt6 (talk) 18:39, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@SamHolt6:, thanks for your answer. Yes, I understand that all people are very busy. And yes, I try not to hurry. However, I could not get a detailed response from @K.e.coffman:. --Gruznov (talk) 21:28, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Gruznov: Different wikis have different notability standards. The current en.wiki notability guideline for corporations is WP:NCORP, recently tightened. I did not find that the page meets it, and especially WP:CORPDEPTH. That is why I rejected the draft. --K.e.coffman (talk) 03:37, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

16:40:45, 7 May 2019 review of draft by Worddust


How do I separate the content sections of my Wikipedia page like all Wikipedia pages have? Or is that an automatic formatting feature that separates the content by section once the article is reviewed and published?

Worddust (talk) 16:40, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Worddust (talk) 16:40, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Worddust: - it depends on if you're editing in "wikitext" or our visual editor (which is a what you see/what you get editor). The former is easy to spot as there will be lots of {{words}} at the top.
In wikitext we use ==Section Header Topic== for headers and ===Sub-section headers=== for sub-headers
In Visual Editor, there will be a button at the top that says either "paragraph" or "Header" - click on it to change. Headers are underlined.
You will actually save time overall creating a draft if you practise first. The Wikipedia Adventure, which takes about 70 minutes (don't have to do in 1 go) is probably the quickest way to get the basics down. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:34, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ADSTucson. The presence or absence of photos will have no effect on whether a draft is accepted or not, so you may wish to focus elsewhere for now.

Worldbruce, Can I simply click on the undo link that you provided? I tried to locate the specific edit in the history but it is difficult for me to see if when that edit was done that there were not other changes made as well. Thank you! LorriBrown (talk) 18:02, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@LorriBrown: There are two links in my post above. The second explains what an undo or revert is, and when to do it. The first is a link to the edit you want to reverse. It will take you to a diff page. Near the top right of that page will be an (undo) link that you can use to undo the edit.
For future reference, one of the most useful tools in the page history is "Find addition/removal", which can help you find a particular revision. Of course you have to know what you're looking for, which probably isn't the case here - if you knew the code in question you could have simply edited the current version and removed it. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:08, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

16:11:38, 8 May 2019 review of draft by DelicateAloe


I created a template for a translation of an article which already exists in Italian and I asked for an English translation but apparently I did it wrong. Can someone help me? Thanks.

DelicateAloe (talk) 16:11, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DelicateAloe. I corrected the {{Expand Italian}} template for you. WP:TRANSLATETOHERE envisions the expand template being placed on a stub article, not a draft. But to get the draft published as a stub through Articles for Creation will require showing that the subject is notable, something for which three independent, reliable sources containing significant coverage are usually recommended. (It is not enough that it exists on the Italian Wikipedia, as each language version operates according to its own policies and guidelines, set by those who edit there, so a topic may be suitable for the Italian version but not the English one, or vice versa.) The Italian version cites a single source. I wouldn't recommend citing it for the English version unless you can obtain it and read it, neither of which may be possible. So it may be difficult to advance this draft. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:17, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Worldbruce, I would like to see this page translated because this villa is located in a town where a lot of Americans come as tourists since their ancestors emigrated from Cuggiono to the USA. I would like for them to be able to read a page in their mother tongue. --DelicateAloe (talk) 07:15, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I made sure the photos were removed that the moderators were having problems confirming ownership on, as well as added more 3rd party citations and sources. RobinEMiller (talk) 17:27, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, what is further needed for the article to be rereviewed? We have some photos as well as reference links but I'm not sure how to insert them into the actual article. When I try to upload photos, they are declined. How should I fix?

Thank you

23:03:11, 8 May 2019 review of draft by JoelDougal: Draft Environment lost map's 2 zoom controls


JoelDougal (talk) 23:03, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Question for Articles for Creation (AfC) Hep Desk:

While in Wikipedia Sandbox (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Sandbox), the "Luna Parc" new article's map zoom controls were much better than map now shows in Wikipedia Draft environment (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Luna_Parc).

Exact same source code used in both environments. You can copy the source code from Draft environment into Sandbox environment to see the better map zoom controls rendered in Sandbox environment.

Specifically, the Draft Environment lost the 2 control buttons ("+" and "-") that should display in top left quadrant of the "mapframe template"-generated Kartographer Java map sourced from OSM data:

 <a class="leaflet-control-zoom-in" href="#" title="Zoom in" role="button" aria-label="Zoom in">+</a>
 <a class="leaflet-control-zoom-out" href="#" title="Zoom out" role="button" aria-label="Zoom out">-</a>

Also, the Draft environment does not allow user's cursor to drag map within frame, whereas in Sandbox environment user could. That is a 2nd regression, both experienced by just moving code from Wikipedia Sandbox to Draft.

How do I get the Draft environment Luna Parc article's map to display the 2 lost map zoom controls, and allow drag of map within frame?

Thanks,

Hi there, I am attempting to add a page to Wikipedia regarding sobering centers. I put together a pretty detailed page, with references from about 15 different published sources. However, it was rejected for "reading like an advertisement".

Trying to figure out what that means - as there is nothing for sale on the site. Sobering centers themselves do not even bill or charge clients, so no money changing hands. The text did not feature a particular person or sobering center.

Clarification would be fantastic. Because it was deemed inappropriate it was "speedily deleted" so I cannot even recover at this stage. For reference, it was reviewed by Captain Medusa. I would like to get a page on sobering centers back up there, as "drunk tank" is the only thing close - and it is very very old information that is not a sobering center.

Thank you! Shannon Sobernoodle (talk) 23:22, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sobernoodle Greetings. Since you article in your sandbox has been deleted, we could not view the deleted article and comment on your request. You could retrieve the deleted article, WP:REFUND, by asking the admin Anthony Appleyard - see here and once you have done that, come back here and link the article for us to comment. @CAPTAIN MEDUSA:, since you nominated the article to be deleted, you might know the promotional issue in the article and might want to comment. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 04:23, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Sobernoodle: The word "advertisement" in the boilerplate text fits poorly with some topics. Don't get hung up on the word, but study what it is linked to. Content must not be promotional. If you have an opinion on whether sobering centers are a good thing, you may find it difficult to keep that from creeping into what you write. Wikipedia mustn't take a position on them. It can't even take a position on whether being sober or not is a good thing, see WP:WIKIVOICE. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:36, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am wondering why the request to make a Wikipedia page was rejected. I used all the appropriate links and information that was all correct.

Thank you

Hello, I posted an article about TG Omori that was rejected due to some reasons I do not fully understand. TG Omori is currently the youngest Music video director in Nigeria and he is a beacon of hope to the youths in Nigeria because of what he has been able to achieve in such a short while. He has directed videos for various, notable Music artistes in Nigeria amongst which include P SQUARE, YCEE, REMINISCE, KHALIGRAPH JONES and a host of many others. I believe he deserves to have a Wikipedia page so it gives more insight and exposure when people want to know more about him. Thank you for the opportunity to hear me out. I hope this request is granted. Kanmbiey (talk) 12:27, 9 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
