Regarding Draft:Zeyan_Shafiq

Kohlrabi Pickle Hi, thanks for the suggestion. can you give me an idea or any example of how do i write the same that i have talked to him, i don't know him so much personally but yes i have talked to him to get some information, but i would like to mention it,kindly guide me on the same, i've written everything from a neutral point of view, you can check all the refrences but it was still declined, if you can guide me on how to improve it,i will be really happy. thanks Hums4r (talk) 17:34, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello Hums4r. You might notice that my username translates to monji aachar, so I'm sympathetic to your wanting to write about more Kashmir-related people. In regards to your connection with Zeyan Shafiq, the guide to disclosure is here: WP:DISCLOSE. I have helped you place a declaration on the draft, but you should also make one on your userpage. As regards the draft on Shafiq, I didn't approve or decline it myself because I'm not certain whether he is notable enough. I've left it to a more experienced reviewer to make that determination. However, I think KashBook is clearly notable. If I was in your position, I would write an article on KashBook first, and then perhaps spin one out on Shafiq. It seems to me that you have quite a lot of material and citations, enough for a KashBook article. I hope this helps. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 01:16, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Hi Kohlrabi Pickle, Thanks for the guidance, i appreciate it. i have done some more research and i have removed the unreliable sources from it, also after it got declined last time, i made some more edits to note down briefly and i didnt use more words from the sources only, my connection to the subject is(1. i am a kashmiri and i know him because of kashbook, 2. i connected with him couple of days back to obtain more information about his current details like where he studies and where he is living right now and his parents details, editors thought that this is a (COI Case), it was a mistake from my side which i realised later, but i apologised for it as well on the teahouse, but i will still accept it as a mistake and i will write it down on my user page as well, but can you kindly share any example of how do i have to write it on my user page, because i haven't built up my userpage still i am learning to do the same. so if you can share any example i will mention the same on my userpage immediately. thanks Hums4r (talk) 01:23, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Kohlrabi Pickle, just to update you, i have added it,kindly check. Hums4r (talk) 01:51, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Hello Hums4r, all good now. You can continue to edit. I should remind you that Wikipedia has a policy on verifiability. All information, especially on biographies of living persons, have to be backed up by independent, reliable sources. This means that you can't publish content on Wikipedia in reliance only on what he may have told you personally. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 02:19, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Kohlrabi Pickle, Should i remove his parentage and alma mater as well then?
@Hums4r:, unless you have a good source, yes. The same is true for his date of birth. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 02:22, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Kohlrabi Pickle, i removed the DOB as well, added the link for year (2002) according to latest vice report he is 19. also an administrator helped me clean up the article. thanks for ur assistance as well brother, much appreciated. also i saw that you are interested in kashmiri articles as well, let's create kashbook article together? if possible fr u.
@Hums4r: Glad to hear it! I'm in university at the moment, and things are quite busy so unfortunately I can't spare the time right now. But if you need any help along the way, I would be happy to help out. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 02:43, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Kohlrabi Pickle sounds really good, i will start researching about it, collecting sources and you can later clean it up if possible. would be really good to work along. Hums4r (talk) 03:53, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Superb! best of luck. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 03:58, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Kohlrabi Pickle, Since the work has been done majorly in kashmir and all the sources have claimed it as kashmiri, so it'll be more appropriate to write kashmiri, in nationality indian is already mentioned, check this article for refrence:( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mehvish_Mushtaq ).
@Hums4r: the article is about the person, not their work. Subjects of biographies are referred to by the country they come from rather than their ethnicity unless their ethnicity is relevant to their notability – see WP:ETHNICITY. We do not, for example, have Mukesh Ambani or Azim Premji listed as "Gujarati" businessmen, Ekta Kapoor as a "Maharashtrian" producer, or Narayana Murthy as a "Karnatakan" entrepreneur. The same is true for Mark Zuckerberg, who is an "American" media magnate, not a "New Yorker", or Bill Gates, who is an "American" business magnate, not a "Washingtonian" one. Also, this discussion should be on the article's talk page, not mine, so that other editors can add their opinions if they wish. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 04:50, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
Hums4r, I've copied the discussion onto the article's talk page. Please reply there - other editors can express their opinions too and then we will know what the consensus is one way or another. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 04:58, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Help

May you please check the Draft:Sheikh_Asif And remove things that is going againts the wikipedia policy . And please let me know how can i improve this and should i have to add more references Imtiyazrasoool (talk) 06:11, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello Imtiyazrasoool. Your main challenge is to show notability (WP:GNG), and you need to refer to more reliable sources. I personally can't see how the subject qualifies for an article. The websites you have linked to don't seem particularly reliable - see WP:RS for more information. Apologies that I can't be of more help right now as I am tied up with other commitments, but you can try the AfC Helpdesk. Kohlrabi Pickle (talk) 07:48, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
