- good day can you please explain whats wrong with my article relton booysen. What do i need to change? Regards,Relton ReltonBooysen22 (talk) 22:23, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
- @ReltonBooysen22:
- Hi and welcome to Wikipedia! I am not Greenman, but I do have a few comments.
- First, autobiographies are usually inherently biased. Yours did not seem very neutral and was written in a manner that seemed a bit promotional, which is not something we want. It also repeats a lot of information. I have fixed some of these errors, but there's still some to be cleaned up. See WP:AUTOBIO.
- Second, it needs more reliable sources, that way you can support the info provided.
- Third, many of the sources that are provided are cited incorrectly (see our WP:CITE page for how to cite the sources properly). They should not just be bare URLS. You can use the visual editor to easily do this (that's personally what I use too).
- Don't feel discouraged, though. :) If it is rewritten properly and has reliable sources to back it, your draft may be accepted.
- Regards

- good day thank for the feedback.
- The information on Relton Booysen is my coaching career and information on coach. What you suggest i change it too instead of autobiographies. All I want is my coaching profile to be on Wikipedia as i am going to apply for a lot of coaching positions now after Basketball Africa league. I not understand what you meant reliable sources since all the references comes form news papers. ESPN, FIBA etc. Please i would appreciate it if you can give me examples.
- i am new to Wikipedia and its not easy to navigate like other platforms. I will read up on the visual editor. I do not understand what you mean by neutral as I state my coaching career. I have spend a lot of time the last week on this process>if there was a life chat or a zoom option to explain to users it would be easier. Its really difficult to setup this page. ReltonBooysen22 (talk) 07:07, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- @ReltonBooysen22 Hi! Thank you for the response, I really should have explained it a lot better.
- I have fixed a lot of the issues I described that were remaining, including the bare URLs and repetitive content (not 100% though, there are still some issues). I also simplified the sentences a lot so that they don't sound as promotional. However, please keep in mind the policies of WP:NEUTRAL, WP:RELIABLE, and WP:CITE when you add new content. Your draft also needs to be notable enough to be accepted, and it is important to see the conflict of interest policy and disclose your conflict of interest (the best place to do so is your user page).
- Also, what I said earlier isn't to say that all autobiographies (biography of oneself) will remain biased, but a lot of the time, if they are written by one person only, then they usually need peer review and improvements to make sure that they are neutral and unbiased. Otherwise, they may be declined. There is also a list of frequently discussed and used sources here, with information about their reliability. 98.179.127.59 (talk) 16:55, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- Good day
- I really feel i am making a burden of myself. What is still outstanding. Should i ask people that are connected to the Basketball Africa League to come and edit an verify my detail. This is really a complicated process. When all users add there user account do they select autobiography ? I just want to make sure i selected the correct article. I sincerely hope we can fix this tomorrow. Regards, and thank for the help. ReltonBooysen22 (talk) 00:05, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. Please read WP:COI, WP:NEUTRAL, and WP:NOTABLE; hopefully these will clear your doubts. 98.179.127.59 (talk) 00:13, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- It seems that you also have received feedback here. 98.179.127.59 (talk) 00:18, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- Also, you need more sources. Per WP:VERIFY and WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH, the article should be backed by reliable sources that don't just have passing mentions of thr subject. These sources should be able to support most of the info in the article, including basic stuff like your place of birth and birth date, even if you really are Relton and the one who has written the article. Without verifiable sources, the article will be declined. 98.179.127.59 (talk) 00:23, 2 May 2022 (UTC)

- Hello Greenman,
- Thanks for reviewing my article (Mohammad Hassan Peerhossaini.) You have mentioned that my personal information has no verifiable reference. As you know, in France there is no inline-accessible site to verify the personal information of people to refer to. The only official document is what is called “livret de famille” delivered by the City Hall of the place you live. I have this document available (which of course confirms the information I have mentioned in my article). I and have made scans of its pages, how can I post it on Wikipedia? Please advise.

- Hi Greenman. Thanks for reviewing my article (Draft:Qupital) and for giving me feedback. It was very useful as I did not initially notice that my article had many advertisement components. I have just updated and resubmitted the article. Would it be possible for you to review it again? Thank you very much and your feedback is greatly appreciated.

- Hello Greenman,
- Thank you for your feedback on my article, I went back through and revised and edited sentences that could be interpreted as promotional. I do have a lot of sources from news worthy sites like Forbes, Businesswire, billboard etc. The only information I pulled from the company website was the list of venues. Please let me know if you have any additional feedback. Appreciate you. Draft:Tao Group Hospitality 66.116.126.211 (talk) 23:27, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

- Hi Greenman, thank you for the feedback on my draft, Im glad I submitted it. I was curious what is meant by "reliable sources" as it relates to this draft, I read about it so I guess I understand wiki's definition of it but is possible to let me know what specifically does or doesn't work related to the sources I provided? I have another source from recent press that was published on WIRED, a bigger outlet, do you think this is better to include? Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon! SolarNinjaTroy (talk) 20:44, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
- Dear Greenman:
- I appreciate your looking at my draft (on Anna Frajlich) and offering a feedback. I realise that you prefer not to engage in discussions about your verdicts, but I followed your advice, added more links and references and posted a request for advice on the draft's "talk" page, but there has been not reaction so far. You are my only critic :) Do you mind if I ask you to take another look and let me know what else I can do? I get the point about verifiable sources, but in case of immigrant writers, it is really hard for them to get coverage in mainstream media outlets, but Frajlich's oeuvre is enormous, well documented in various immigrant publications, and the fact that an entire issue of a professional periodical was dedicated exclusively to her writing and her career speaks for itself. Also (I don't know how important it is) there is already a page about her in the Polish Wikipedia. Her notability is established already in the wikiworld. I would really appreciate any feedback. I do take it seriously. Thank you, MatrosMonk. MatrosMonk (talk) 22:43, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hello. Can you please tell me what is wrong with my article. You said "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources", but this article's sources are Japanese famous newspapers such as Sports Hochi Newspaper, Industrial and Economic Newspaper, Zaikei Newspaper. And do you really understand the Japanese sources? And there's already article written in Japanese Wikipedia. It seems the assessment criteria is so vague. Bztn999 (talk) 13:45, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Greenman,
- Can you please help me understand what is wrong with my article?
- You mentioned that I should "remove external links", but it appears that many other wikipedia articles contain external links.
- You also mentioned to include more reliable resources, but the sources I used were official and directly supported their corresponding claims.
- I would greatly appreciate your feedback.

Petrus Crabbe
[edit]Many thanks for preventing my notice on Petrus Crabbe being published. I've deleted the content, and I'd be grateful if you'd just delete what's left. I should have known better than to write it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:62A3:1F01:455:198D:4330:D4CD (talk) 21:02, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
Query
[edit]I have done as you asked. Do I understand correctly, that the reason why your text asking if I'm here to talk about a draft article is the only text that I see on your talk page, is because you have moved all other text to your Archives? And did my post prompt you to do so? Just curious, as I've had different experiences with reviewers of my previous two articles, both of which were accepted, and I'm concerned to respond appropriately to well-intended criticism.2603:6010:4E42:500:2804:5DA3:F85:13B6 (talk) 02:10, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
- Hi, yes, the reason the text does not appear here any more is that it was moved to my talk page archives. Every now and again I do so to prevent the talk page becoming too heavy. It wasn't specifically your post that prompted this, but since I became active on reviewing Drafts in 2021, I've been getting a lot of requests, and I thought a notice would be useful. The intention is to give constructive advice to the submitter, and avoid frustration with my lack of response. Responding on the Draft page or another dedicated page means followup reviewers can benefit from the discussion. The time I spend on reviewing is quite limited, and the backlog so large, that I usually spend it on a new submissions. Good luck getting the article approved!

TapticInfo (talk) 09:53, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
Thank you for your feedback to my article draft!
I did some wikipedia research on notability and found this:
"attributes that may be considered toward establishing notability... as long as the attributes are themselves supported by reliable sources in their allowing then the presumption that additional sources are likely to exist. WP:ANYBIO allows that ANY individual may be presumed notable if "the person has received a notable award or honor, or has been nominated for one several times", OR "the person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in their specific field". Meeting these "attributes" allows editors to accept a presumption in good faith that other sources are likely to exist without also demanding that these "other sources" be immediately found and offered."
The subject I am writing about won notable awards and prizes. So if I find what you called "reliable sources" and remove external links then I can re-submit the article?

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.
- AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
- The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.
Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

[edit]Hello there Ian,
Thank you for your feedback regarding my recent article. Yes, you are correct that I did source my own website around the same time as I made the wiki article. With my blog post, I did do plenty of research from other reliable sources to put there, which was then reflected onto the wiki page. I can put those resources down on the wiki article if that helps it to get accepted.
Any help would be fantastic! Thank you for your time and I hope you are having a great day!

Response to comment for "Draft:List of tropical depressions"
[edit]Unlike the first one, the draft uses notable depressions (depressions with articles relating to it), unlike the first one, as the reason for deletion nomination states that the article "gives a list of non-notable storms." And while the deletion nomination also states that "TD's occur all of the time", some of these tropical depression on the draft list did major damage, with Tropical Depression Winnie (one of the tropical depressions on the list) being one of the worst tropical cyclones in the Philippines's history, and it never reached tropical storm status. In fact, the first name for the list had "notable" in it's title, just to differentiate it from the first one (but it got changed to what it is now, as it's not neutral.)
TL;DR: The list uses actually notable tropical depressions. Mobius Gerig (talk) 20:15, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
Just letting you know that, per WP:AFCSTANDARDS#1, you shouldn't decline a (non-BLP, non-contentious) draft just because it doesn't have inline citations; this particular draft is fine in that instance because it has general referencing. Not a big deal, just making sure you're aware. Keep up the good work!

The article Mohamed Haddouche has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Single reference is a blog for this BLP.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. scope_creepTalk 19:26, 3 May 2022 (UTC)
The article Aimen Rizouk has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. scope_creepTalk 19:29, 3 May 2022 (UTC)

Selemani Kitwana
[edit]Selemani Kitwana is a former Tanzanian soccer legend. This practice of denying African notable people a place on Wikipedia on account of insufficient coverage or “notability” is very segregative. Truth must be told that there is less record keeping in Africa, less media houses and less coverage, also less Wikipedia editors and automatically this give the continent a segregative approach by most Wikipedia editors. 154.0.157.79 (talk) 04:46, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

It happened the same time as I left a comment, which is a different interface to editing the content, so I wonder if it was due to a bug in the AFCH helper script. Anyway, thanks, I see you've since restored it. Greenman (talk) 15:13, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Wikimania 2022 is almost here (11-14 August 2022) and will be held entirely online this year with the exception of a number of local mini-Wikimania's for local community members. I just wanted to let you know that two local Wikimania mini-events will be happening in South Africa; one in Cape Town and one in Johannesburg. Participants will be able to attend both the international event from these local events. If you are interested, available and in the area at the time we would be delighted to have you join us. For more information please checkout the South Africa mini-event page here. You can also fill out the interest form here. Discott (talk) 09:42, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
I hope you could help me with this article. I was thinking the links or resources I used may not work in the location you are right now. Is it possible? If not, what do you think should i work on. I already included the news articles, and websites in the references section. Thank you so much for your help.

Hello @Greenman,
Thank you for taking the time to review my article. Could you help me better understand what I can change in order to get my article approved?
Is the number of references too low? I thought were enough independent news articles already cited but perhaps not.
Is there anything else I can work on?
Thanks

Bring Back Nyombi
[edit]Mr. Greenman, we don't understand why you want to keep nyombi's page in isolation, people have tried adding and removing all the so called urls you mentioned but we don't see his page being approved, you can't tell me someone who has been featured almost everywhere,BBC, CNN, CBC News, WION, Global Citizen, TRT World, TED,award winner, and has a verified twitter account, but has a fake wikipedia profile, like seriously to me i see this has a sign of discrimination. which we don't want to see on wiki. You can't just drop Nyombi's page in draft for so long man. Alien234 (talk) 12:38, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi, I struggle to publish my draft about RTL AdConnect, as the article is deemed as not having enough reliable sources.Although I read about the referencing policy of wikipedia, I don't understand why my sources are not good. Because I used some sources from renown media outlets and they are in no way linked to the company. I'd like to know what would be an acceptable sources. Or is the problem the quality of the articles Im referencing to ?
I also looked at other companies working in the same field as RTL AdConnect, and their wikipedia page seems to be have sources from media outlets.
Thanks for your help.

You only contribute to south african pages
[edit]Hi, you recently dropped, Nyombi's page, I was asking since am not the perfect editor why don't you find someone to rewrite instead other than freezing him forever, at first you said, is paying me to do so, but I decided to give you a chance to find good people to update it without me adding anything, but you haven't, should we say you only help those from your country or do you guys work for only those you know. I think Nyombi has all information needed and he doesn't need to die to have a Wikipedia, stop your discrimination comments, we have seen many famous people with Wikipedia when they're still alive, you can't say let the subject first die, why can't you atleast get someone to edit and return his page online. it doesn't make sense for sure, I tried updating it but all my requests were declined, it's now five days no one bothering to add in the information required. Rewrite if you want but return in back online, stop eliminating him. Alien234 (talk) 21:54, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Regarding your reasons for rejecting this draft, could you kindly identify the "unreliable sources" and any passages containing "unreliable tone." The sources for this draft have been meticulously vetted and consistently accepted in many other Wikipedia pages. I have some idea of which specific source/s you are referring to, I can easily correct. Regarding tone, the draft follows a strict subject/verb structure with no adjectives or non-neutral passages that I can identify. Any assistance on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

My article on "New Financial Model" has been declined twice.
1. Objection was reliable sources: I had submitted reliable media coverage sources on the subject. All the reliable sources i have updated till date.
2. Objection is that Article subject do not qualify for the wikipedia. Dear Team as per my reading. It's model on Macroeconomics. Major one which is proposing new tool to central banks and universal pension system to everyone. It is challenging keynesian economics.
3. Objection is that it looks like an article, here i can improve.
4. There is no conflict of interest at all. How we can resolve it.
Hope i will get your help on completion.

A submission you declined at AfC was moved to mainspace without addressing the issues for the decline. I was going to move it back into the draft space but since I have no involvement with AfC I wanted to discuss it with you before I did anything regarding the article. Would moving it back to draftspace be the best course of action? - Aoidh (talk) 08:14, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
- @Aoidh: thanks, in my opinion the article is completely inappropriate for mainspace, but could potentially be salvaged through a rewrite in Draft, so I'd be fine with moving it back there. Greenman (talk) 10:18, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Meriwether Lewis Electric Cooperative
[edit]Good day! You rejected the draft article Draft:Meriwether Lewis Electric Cooperative on grounds of notability...rightfully so, I didn't have it sourced as well as I should have after it had been called into question by @Bruxton. I've added additional sources from newspapers and government documentation, so it should pass notability guidelines now. Thanks, have a great day! nf utvol (talk) 18:52, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
Hi mate, I'm new to Wikipedia but have followed the same layout, referencing, etc. that other pages are so not sure what needs to change? Any help would be appreciated.
As for the references to that page, others use the same website (Ice Hockey News Australia) and others. This is not a site that I administer or run. The sport is not huge in Australia so references are limited in quantity besides the official website and social media channels of the team itself which I have not used.
Thanks again!

Draft: Camp Mather
[edit]Hi, I see you tagged this article draft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Camp_Mather_(San_Francisco_Recreation_and_Parks) with a Conflict of Interest WP: COI. I can't see how to respond to this charge. I have never been an employee of the camp, am not (and never have been) on any board associated with the camp, have not been an employee or volunteer with the City of San Francisco (in any capacity or location), or any such relationship. I have been a customer (camper) at the Camp. Does that establish a COI? How should this be resolved and identified? Thanks! MikeVdP (talk) 04:46, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Concerns regarding accepted draft
[edit]Hey! I noticed that you accepted the draft Plug-in electric vehicles in Nebraska. I'm a bit confused as to why you deemed it appropriate for mainspace. It's basically just "There are X electric vehicles in Nebraska. There are X vehicles in X city." It really doesn't seem ready for mainspace and also doesn't seem notable. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:07, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Blaze Wolf:! The core purpose of the AfC process is deciding whether a submission is notable or not. It's currently little more than a stub, but there are seven reasonable quality sources on the topic, so in my evaluation it was notable and would survive WP:AFD. Greenman (talk) 13:21, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
- Alright I understand that... however Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of articles. Yes it may be notable but in it's current state it jsut appears to be listing the amount of electric vehicles in Nebraska and each major city in Nebraska. I myself feel that it should've been incubated in draft space a little longer before being moved to mainspace so that it had more actual content. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:27, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

However, I have clarified the same to the previous reviewer. [1] The reviewer said that he didn't review the article actually and just pointed out the normal issues that are common with the wiki articles in general and asked me to wait for another reviewer, please refer to the talk page if required (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Usedtobecool#Regarding_Draft:Mahalakshmi_Pavani) I wrote this article months back after due research and have cited credible sources for the same.

Very bad job at Draft:André Sougarret
[edit]Did you even read the sources? What makes you think that sources did not "show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject" when you have articles of Reuters and El Mercurio mentioning him in the title (La Tercera article did also mentioned him), plus the obvious facts that he is CEO of Codelco and the leader of the much-publicized 2010 Copiapó mining accident.
