Your submission at Articles for creation: Tovi (May 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Greenman was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Tovi and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hi, you may like to take a look at Wikipedia:LEDECITE, which tells us that sources are not always necessary in the lede when it merely summarizes sourced content in the article body. Also, I do not think your source says what you think it says. You may want to take it to the article talk page. All the best. Tewdar 16:24, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed! Good stuff!! TruckDealer (talk) 16:59, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion contested: Annapurna Cafe

Hello TruckDealer, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Annapurna Cafe, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not unambiguously promotional. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Justarandomamerican (talk) Have a good day! 02:16, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Appu's Cafe

Hello TruckDealer, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Appu's Cafe, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: There is a reasonable claim of notability (not the issue claimed) but I don't see the tone as overtly promotional. Consider AFD if you feel strongly about deletion. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Dennis Brown 2¢ 02:46, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Bollywood Theater

Hello TruckDealer, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Bollywood Theater, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not so overly promotional that it qualifies for G11. The sources do seem very local in nature, so likely a candidate for AFD. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Dennis Brown 2¢ 02:48, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined: Bombay Brasserie

Hello TruckDealer, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Bombay Brasserie, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Doesn't fit the strict criteria of G11, and there is a credible claim of notability (not the reason given for speedy, but always a consideration). Consider AFD if you feel strongly about it. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Dennis Brown 2¢ 02:49, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tagging pages for speedy deletion

Hello, TruckDealer,

Please stop tagging articles to be deleted as you do not have a good understanding of the speedy deletion criteria. Please spend some time reviewing Criteria for Speedy Deletion so you better understand when it is appropriate to tag an article for speedy deletion, which namespaces each criteria applies to and when it is better to find other resolutions like you spending time improving an article rather than seeking its deletion. I have reverted your taggings as you seem to do them very fast without enough considerations whether there were other ways to improve an article rather than asking for it to be deleted.

If you have questions about Wikipedia's different forms of deletion, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:59, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Citation formatting

Hello, and thank you for your efforts to improve Wikipedia, and in particular for adding references! However, you should know that adding a bare URL is not ideal, and exposes the reference to linkrot. It is preferable to use proper citation templates when citing sources. A bare URL is a URL cited as a reference for some information in an article without any accompanying information about the linked page. In other words, it is just URL copied and pasted into the Wiki text, inserted between <ref>...</ref> tags, without title, author, date, or any of the usual information necessary for a bibliographic citation. Here's an example of a full citation using the {{cite web}} template to cite a web page:

Lorem ipsum<ref>{{cite web |title=Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac |publisher=Canon Inc |work=Ask a Question |date=2022 |url=https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174839 |access-date=2022-04-02}}</ref> dolor sit amet.

which displays inline in the running text of the article as:

Lorem ipsum^[1] dolor sit amet.

and displays under References as:

1. ^ Download the Scanning Software - Windows and Mac". Ask a Question. Canon Inc. 2022. Retrieved 2022-04-02.

If you've already entered one or more bare urls to an article, there are tools available to expand them into full citations; try the reFill tool, which can resolve some bare references semi-automatically. Once again, thanks for adding references to articles, and to avoid future link rot, please consider supplementing your bare URLs—creating full, inline citations with title, author, date, publisher, etc. More information can be found at Wikipedia:Inline citations. Thank you. :Jay8g [V•T•E] 02:19, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Javascript engines for games moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to List of Javascript engines for games. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. ~ A412 ^talk! 18:32, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: List of Javascript engines for games (March 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Utopes was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Github does not support the notability of the list. After removing every entry that doesn't have an article, the resulting list shrinks down to two titles, and not enough to justify its standalone existence.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Hi TruckDealer. Thank you for your work on List of continuous Jewish settlements in Israel. Another editor, North8000, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Under the lenient standards for list article I marked this as reviewed but this really needs work. I'd start with defining what exactly the inclusion criteria is for your list; i.e. your working definition of "continuous settlements" Happy editing~
