- @Searcher7799: Hi, as I understand it, the issues with your drafts are the lack of reliable sources and promotional language. I can't speak on behalf of the reviewers, but adding reliable secondary sources certainly wouldn't hurt, if these subjects have entries on Farsi Wikipedia you might use those references.

Question from Jubiliance3829 (17:31, 19 November 2024)
[edit]I've identified two bad links on references to this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dibasic_ester
References 1 and 3.
How should I identify this gap and try to resolve?
Thanks, --Jubiliance3829 (talk) 17:31, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Jubiliance3829: What do you mean by bad links? You can't open them? Shellwood (talk) 18:10, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Reference 1 is a web page with a header but no content.
- Reference 3 is a dead link (error 404). Jubiliance3829 (talk) 19:19, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- I see, as for reference 1, I'm not familiar with the website and I don't know whether a subscription is needed to access it. These links were retrieved a long time ago, so it should come as no surprise that they are not working. The other reference can be viewed here:[1]. If you have knowledge about this topic, you are more than welcome to add new references to the article. Shellwood (talk) 19:33, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, I've updated with a current reference for #1 and marked #3 as dead link. Jubiliance3829 (talk) 22:12, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
