Your submission at Articles for creation: Ivy (July 30)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Ivy and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Fawzi mesmar (July 30)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Johannes Maximilian was:

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please convert the external links into references if they can be used to establish notabily. Best regards, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 19:03, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Linking years

Hello. While linking years was common during in English Wikipedia's early years, the practice was abandoned a long time ago and is not in conformance with the Manual of Style. Largoplazo (talk) 19:35, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

do you mean that this act is not accepted right now? and why it's been abandoned? A0m0rajab (talk) 19:42, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's correct. If you look, you'll see that someone else has reverted all those edits. I'm not certain why but I think it's because it was felt that readers see years in text all the time, and it very rarely triggers the desire to learn more about that year outside of the context of the article they're reading. Also, there's more general guidance against linking terms that readers probably don't need help with, and weighing their value against the disruption to smooth reading produced by an abundance of links. See WP:OVERLINKING. Largoplazo (talk) 19:48, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for explaining and letting me know! what contributions that I could do tho? I am trying to get familiar and contribute to the wiki these days. and I did not realize till now that the 170 links I did was useless lol. A0m0rajab (talk) 20:53, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, I understand that's frustrating! One thought, if you're confident in your editing abilities and are interested in improving the writing in articles, is that you could look through some of the thousands of articles listed under subcategories of Category:Articles needing cleanup. Each of the articles listed there has a cleanup tag at the top, placed there by somebody who felt the writing should be better, and hopefully with a note as to why. See if you can find any articles that interest you and tackle them. Let me know if you'd like me to go over anything with you if you give this a go. Largoplazo (talk) 21:38, 6 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for that, I had a quick check and was wondering if there is a similar page based on topics? I would like to check it. A0m0rajab (talk) 07:52, 8 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That would be useful but maintenance categories aren't broken down that way. However, you could choose a category, browse through the articles in it, and see if any can use attention. Largoplazo (talk) 21:57, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's a great advice, thank you for that! I will check them definitely. A0m0rajab (talk) 22:35, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
