Help me!

[edit]

How can I make my Wiki Article be more noticed? It's only a draft at the moment and isn't very good.

If you want to bring it to other editors' attention, you can leave a note at a relevant WikiProject such as WT:WikiProject Schools. If you cannot find reliable sources, though, it's somewhat unlikely that someone else will do that. Huon (talk) 15:01, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hello! It looks like you are writing about a primary school. Per Wikipedia's standards, all articles have to be WP:Notable. This means that they have received significant coverage from 3rd party, independent sources. Per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, articles about primary schools are usually deleted or merged into another article because primary schools usually do not receive the media coverage necessary to be considered notable. You should also read the Wikipedia:WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines page for more information. AntiCompositeNumber (Leave a message) 15:03, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Hello Lel213, I see your article is currently in its draft form. Before you do anything, you must understand that any subject to have an article in Wikipedia should meet the notability criteria. As far as your article is concerned, it is a primary school and is not notable (unless it has some significant coverage in multiple reliable sources, in which case it would be notable per WP:GNG), as opposed to high schools, which are de facto notable. Your article, if moved to mainspace, will likely be merged to/redirected to the article of the school's district authority or the smallest locality. And as to getting more visitors to your article, well, there's nothing we can do about it. If your article makes it to mainspace (which I think it won't) you could bring in visitors by means of external ads or things like that. Please also read Your first article and Writing better articles to get some idea on how to construct articles. You are also welcome to use the Article wizard for an intuitive and step-by-step guide on article creation. Hope that helps. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 15:13, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

More advice (written before I saw the other responses)

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia! We have a place called "Draft space" for draft articles that are not ready for the encyclopedia, so I have moved it to Draft:Willowcroft Community School where you can work on it. Start by reading Wikipedia:Your first article for advice. When the article is ready, clicking the "Submit" button will send it for review by an experienced user, who will either accept it or give you feedback.

The important thing is references. They are needed because of the WP:Verifiability policy, and also because Wikipedia has an inclusion test called Wikipedia:Notability, which is not a matter of opinion but has to be demonstrated by references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Youtube, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have people not connected with the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about? See also Wikipedia:Notability (summary).

I must warn you that when school articles have been discussed in the past, it has usually been found that primary and middle schools are not notable in Wikipedia's terms - see WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES. But don't let that stop you from having a go - find the best references you can and send the draft article for review.

Next time you want to start an article, you can choose to use WP:Articles for creation, which will guide you through the process of making a draft page.

Here are some other pages that you might find helpful:

On talk pages (but not in articles) it helps keep track of who said what when if you "sign" your contributions by ending them with a group of four "tilde" characters ~~~~, which the system will turn into a "signature" of your username and the time and date - like this: JohnCD (talk) 15:14, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Lel213. It has been over six months since you last edited your Articles for Creation draft article submission, "Willowcroft Community School".

In accordance with our policy that Articles for Creation is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. — O Fortuna! Imperatrix mundi. 18:43, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
