Article creation declined - Jonathan Lomas
[edit]Hi there,
I've had an article I'm trying to write declined twice now -- for Jonathan Lomas (the academic not the golfer) -- for 'lack of reliable sources'. I was wondering if you could give me some more details/guidance regarding what particular sources to change so that I can meet Wikipedia's standards, as this general comment is not that useful given the twelve or so references I do have.
The site can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Jonathan_Lomas
Many thanks for your time and reviews! previous unsigned comment signed for user Porterca
- Hiyas there Porterca,
- The article you refer to hadn't been declined twice as far as i can tell. I reviewed this old version, after which you improved the article and resubmitted it for review. The article itself is currently still up waiting for a review - somewhat inconveniently a new review request template is always added at the bottom of the page though, while the old "Declined" template remains on top of the page (I admit, is a tad confusing).
- Once the article is re-reviewed, you should receive another message stating "Your submission at Articles for creation" on your talk page, and the article should either be created, or there should be a second template stating why it was declined. Personally i try to avoid reviewing article's multiple times in a row to allow for some fresh input. Besides that, i generally only check new submissions to see if there is some form of issue with them that would get them declined no matter what. The review queue is currently ~800 pages, and it would be a bit senseless to have an editor wait a couple of days for a review if there is some common, easy to see issue. As a positive note - I see no clear cut issues with the page as of current. That doesn't mean it will definitely be accepted, but it does mean that the basis of the article is fine.
