Hi, please don't add entries to navboxes until they have articles, since the primary stated purpose of navboxes is to aid navigation between articles. Thanks, Jc86035 (talk) 14:14, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestions

Hi Idesmi, I saw your Draft:Searx article. Definitely it has potential, and it's a search engine I've used myself!

If you want a good chance at the article being accepted, add more references to reliable sources that remark on the notability of searx.me. A good place to find articles is on Google News, https://www.google.ca/search?q=searx&source=lnms&tbm=nws :

Cheers and good luck! --Nanite (talk) 15:14, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Nanite: Thanks for your advice! I managed to add more references, hope it's going to be accepted. Idesmi (talk) 07:31, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Idesmi Before you go much further with the lists, I want to point out that if the article is accepted, those lists are eventually going to get pulled out. It would be much better to have a short one paragraph of the general idea, containing a link to the official tables of Searx. Wikipedia is not supposed to end up looking like an instruction manual.

As far as references go, it's important to focus on the things that are reported about searx --- reported by people not directly involved with the project. When tech reporters look at searx, what are the noteworthy things that stand out to them? --Nanite (talk) 08:09, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Idesmi: OK, the article is much better now. Still, you should take out pretty much all of the citations of personal blogs, reddit posts, documentation written by Searx people, etc..

Rather, try to rely on what is said in the citations like Linux Magazine, Sophos Naked Security, TechSpot.

Ideally the reference list should look like that you see on Tor2web's article, as a tech example. (I was looking at comparable searches's articles -- DuckDuckGo and Ixquick -- and they are bad examples.)

Anyway I have read closely the AfC guidelines and I believe it will be accepted. I would have accepted it already, myself, but there's some bureaucratic hoops I'm supposed to jump through. Cheers, --Nanite (talk) 20:20, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Nanite: Thanks a lot for support. It's my first own page here. Even if it was not accepted, shouldn't it be placed as stub?

Your submission at Articles for creation: Searx (August 31)

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Searx and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Homeworld 3 moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Homeworld 3, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
