Pacinian corpuscle

Hello Biswas a - re your comments on recent edits - knowledgeable edits are of course always welcome and your points are interesting. You mentioned having references used in your thesis and I wondered if it was possible for you to add these to your edits? My own knowledge of the subject is quite superficial. Best --Iztwoz (talk) 10:01, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Iztwoz,

I shall do my best to add those primary references. It needs some time from my side. Also I shall request my research students who are working in this area to improve that page further.

Thanks.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Centre for Product Design and Manufacturing (July 11)

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

I am not altogether sure why an article first created 2007 is in AFC.

Be that as it may I think there is a basic understanding of referencing. Please take a pace back and read about what we need:

We 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.

What you seem to have done is provided references for topics within the article, but which do not show that the centre itself p[assws WP:CORP. The objective to to pass that.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Centre for Product Design and Manufacturing (July 12)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

poorly sourced and promotional

Wikipedia's "conflict of interest" guideline, and other related issues

If you are connected to someone or something you have written about (a few examples are writing about yourself, your business, your band, a member of your family, your client) then you should be aware that Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline discourages you from writing about that subject. The main reason for that is that experience over the years indicates that editors with such a connection to a subject they are writing about are likely to find it very difficult, or even impossible, to stand back from their writing and see how it will look from the detached perspective of an outsider, so that they are likely to write in ways that look promotional to others, even if they sincerely think they are writing in a neutral way. Also, if your editing forms all or part of work for which you are paid, whether as an employee, as a contractor, or in any other capacity, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require you to state who is paying you, and what your connection to them is. (To avoid the possibility of a surprisingly common misunderstanding, editing is part of paid work if it is done as part of normal employment or as part of a work to a contract, whether or not a specific payment earmarked for editing Wikipedia is made.)JBW (talk) 09:40, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi JBW, I agree with this point of view of Wikipedia. Only point is that there was a page created long back (in 2007) which is now deleted. I just wanted to address the issues for which it was deleted. I have not seen this page before 2020 July, the time I joined CPDM. As I am now involved this organization, I think someone else outside from this organization should take the responsibility of restoring the page. Hope Wikipedia reviewers will apply this policy across all the pages and I completely support that. Thanks for clarifying this. Biswas a (talk)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Centre for Product Design and Manufacturing (July 23)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Tamingimpala was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Rejecting as the re-submission is persistent despite the previous declinations.
