Article far too short for DYK; no edits made to address the many issues raised

Star Airlines‎

[edit]

Created by Sdee (talk). Self-nominated at 14:19, 20 December 2016 (UTC).

  • I am sorry to say that this nomination has major obstacles to overcome if it is to be accepted, including:
  • the article is too short, under 1000 characters and thus well under the 1500 character minimum.
  • the article is about an airline that is not expected to operate for at least another year, so is problematic in a policy sense. I am not convinced that notability has been established.
  • the article is classified as Start class, an assessment made by an editor other than the nominator, but it looks like a Stub to me.
  • the article needs a copyedit, the English is not of a sufficient standard.
  • I do not understand what ALT0 is saying.
  • ALT1 is not very interesting. The facts in the article, that the founder inherited the leadership of Evergreen but left to start his own business instead is a much better basis for a hook, I think.
  • Nominator Sdee already has 6 DYK creditsand so a QPQ review is required.
  • The article is not new, Sdee has changed it from a redirect, which means that the above "Created by" is wrong - though this is easily fixed. The nomination was made on time so it is eligible on that front.
  • No copyvio issues and close paraphrasing is highly unlikely given the problems with written English.
  • Sdee, in its present state, this article is far from being ready for DYK and the main page. It needs more content, a copyedit, an improved / clarified hook, a QPQ review of another nomination is needed, and notability is questionable, in my view. Foreign-language sources are fine but translations of titles would be helpful. EdChem (talk) 15:03, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
