Draft:Mujeeb Majeed

Hello @InterstellarGamer12321! First of all, thanks for reviewing my article Draft:Mujeeb Majeed earlier. I have made changes and updated the article as per your feedback. Could you please check this again? Thank you! Thahakolpad (talk) 12:29, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

@Thahakolpad: thank you for getting back to me about your draft. I have accepted it and it is now a mainspace article. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 06:18, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Unique Finance

Hello dear coach,

I am one of the shareholders of this company. It even has a Dubai agency that I put in the photo of Unique Portfolio Management.

I have been a shareholder of this company for more than 4 years. And all the information and references I gave are completely reliable, even the Google Drive links are from my account. Please confirm this article. Our company hides itself and many people are using it to say that this company is fake and Ponzi. that the shareholders think that they have lost their money and cause the shareholder to complain to the other shareholder.

Please help all shareholders of more than 300,000 people around the world to know that Unique Finance is legitimate

I repeat again, this article is not advertising at all, just reliable information that has been removed from public view. My references are from government bodies (Switzerland, England and America Delaware) iosco, NBC news website, world journals

If it needs to be edited, tell me which item to correct.

Thanks and regards UniqueFinanz (talk) 10:02, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

@UnqiueFinanz: the reason I had declined your article was because when I had reviewed it the quality of the prose was not good enough. This is still the case and needs to be fixed. The other reason it was declined was that at the time of review most of the information was unreferenced. The inline citations you have added since to your Google Drive are not reliable and do not establish notability as they are not independent and from reputable sources. The reliable sources you are talking about are currently external links at the bottom of the page and should be converted to inline citations. See WP:RS and the links I gave in my decline comment for more information. As for your conflict of interest, you can simply read the guideline and put a {{COI}} template of your user page.

Wyndham Payne Draft Page

Hello Interstellargamer12321,

Thanks for your editorial guidance on my attempt at a first article for Wikipedia! Your help is much appreciated :-)

I will do my best to sort these fixes out and find some more independent, reliable and verifiable sources.

Quick question, which I already know you have told me to do this, but I just want to double-check...

Do I have to cut all the unverifiable text IE probably about two thirds of the piece so far attributed to William Connelly's Studies in Illustration and the ACC book because they are too biased about the subject IE Wyndham's son is a co-author of the ACC book or is there something I am missing about how to detail Wyndham's interesting and unusual life?

Also I am currently scouring all the newspapers. Am I allowed to use newspaper cuttings from more that 70 years ago off the Newspaper.com archive?

Yours in anticipation, Nikki :-)

PS I am marginally concerned I am wasting my time on someone that Wikipedia might deem only noteworthy not notable. Can you in your experience tell me if Wyndham seems a notable person by Wikipedia's standards? I won't quote you on it! It'd just be good to get a steer on this in terms of my time, energy and resources. I'll move onto another article if so. Thanks once again for reviewing my article.

@The Nookster: thank you for getting back to me about my review of your draft. The subject of your draft seems to be notable per WP:BIO or WP:GNG: that was not my concern when I was reviewing your draft. My concern was about the amount of unreferenced content without good sourcing. You are free to use old newspapers as references. As for the unreferenced information, only remove information which you are unable to verify with a reliable source. If you can find a source for it, add the source and keep it. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 08:37, 18 June 2023 (UTC)
Hi @InterstellarGamer12321
Thanks for this extra information. Very good to know :-) I shall keep going with Wyndham a quintessential English eccentric!
I am currently weeding out all the unreferenced content I can't find reliable sources for. And crucially am digging in further to find more independent reliable sources. I've found a few. Hoping to keep finding more. Thank you for your guidance. Have a great rest of the weekend. The Nookster (talk) 09:05, 18 June 2023 (UTC)

Wyndham Payne Draft Page

Hello @InterstellarGamer12321

Can I just say a BIG thank you for your reviewing help. I think I've got a better handle on how to present a broader more independent sourcing the Wikipedia Way! Fingers crossed. I'm still concerned this page relies to heavily on the William Connelly source from Studies in Illustration that isn't easily verifiable? And I haven't got my head wrapped around the Wikipedia publishing criteria for pictures properly yet. For instance, I totes love his picture of Bonfire Night but I'm not sure I can use it?

I have managed to add a lot more sources in now though, so I would be grateful if you could check the latest draft and give me feedback, if this is the appropriate next step of action. Or should I hit the resubmit button again? Thanks for your patience and understanding with me, The Nookster :-)

PS Updated 4pm 19/6/2023: Hello @InterstellarGamer12321 I thought you would like to know I have re-submitted my first article for Wikipedia to be reviewed again. I really want to thank you for your help so far... Invaluable, thanks Nikki :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Albert_Wyndham_Payne — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Nookster (talkcontribs) 15:03, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

@The Nookster: thank your for your updates. The article is definitely in a better shape than it was before. Most AfC reviewers usually leave it to a new reviewer to review the article so that you will get a new perspective and so that they can focus on the rest of the backlog. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 19:03, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
Hi @InterstellarGamer12321 thanks for your reply and words of encouragement:) I have sent it back into the pack to be reviewed again. And am continuing to keep making it better, more independent sources, line-editing and much needed proofing. The Nookster (talk) 11:39, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Algorithmic_Contract_Types_Unified_Standards#History

Your comment: "The article seems to be notable but there is a lot of unreferenced information in the History which should be backed up with reliable sources"

I have added more references. I should also point out that ACTUS is the second of 3 sources for the OFR's work. Both the first (ISO 20022) and FIX, which was added a year after ACTUS, already have Wikipedia pages. If there is something specific you feel has not been refernced, please say so. Thank you. Yankinthebank (talk) 10:56, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

@Yankinthebank: I have taken another look at the article and accepted it because the referencing is now much better. It is now a mainspace article. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 11:20, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

Draft Page - Joe Peyronnin

A big thank you for your feedback on my page. I really appreciate all administrators efforts to keep Wikipedia a reliable source. I am still very new to its rigors, so I hope that you can take the time for a second look that I am writing for my brother. I understand that biographies require more scrutiny, and I hope you can see that I have stuck to the facts. I've added many more references (tripled) through further research from reliable sources. BTW - An aid to determine reliability for me was to ask the AI agent in Bing if a source was reliable. I found its answers reassuring. Many of the resources may be behind a paywall, but I have downloaded a pdf copy to substantiate as necessary. Again, thank you for your time and experience! Redleg (talk) 16:03, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

@Peyronnin: Thank you for getting back to me about my review of your draft. It is definitely in better shape, although more citations are needed in the Personal life section. Please also be aware of the WP:Excessive citations in areas of the article such as the lead; aim to trim them slightly to the most pertinent or reliable sources. You might also want to consider copyediting the article so that it complies with WP:MOS and WP:REFPUNC, although this is not strictly necessary for it to be accepted. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 18:04, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
Hello! I've trimmed the excessive citations and improved them in the personal section. I've corrected the placement of each citation, reviewed the manual of style, and run the entire article through a grammar checker. When you have time, could you review the submission again and let me know if you think that it is worthy of resubmission? Thank you. Redleg (talk) 22:12, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
@Peyronnin: most of the issues in the draft have been fixed and I think it is safe for resubmission. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 09:40, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
@Peyronnin: I have accepted the article and it is now in mainspace. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 13:03, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
Thank you very much! Redleg (talk) 13:25, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Draft Page - Ayo Vincent

Hello @InterstellarGamer12321! First of all, thanks for reviewing my article Draft:Ayo Vincent earlier,and your editorial guidance for proper article creation! Your help is much appreciated :-). I have made changes and updated the article as per your feedback. Could you please check this again? Thank you! Samlodias (talk) 06:20, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

@Samlodias: thank you for getting back to me about my review of your draft. I have taken another look at it and the main issues were fixed, so I accepted it and it is now in mainspace. It still needs copyediting so that it complies with the guidelines at WP:MOS, which is why I placed the copyedit tag. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 09:33, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Thank you so much!! In the meantime, I will do my best to work on the copyediting as you have advised. Samlodias (talk) 10:54, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
