01:49, 18 November 2024 review of submission by SleepyCat

[edit]

I've updated my references as instructed, why can't I pass? SleepyCat (talk) 01:49, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The sources just aren't by and large very useful. The first three aren't about Gong Rujing, but simply expressing Gong's opinion about a subject related to her company. Even if we accept for the sake of argument that being named a Young Global Leader by the non-profit is a good source, that's still an incredibly thin article. Not much else has been presented for Gong's notability. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 02:25, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@SleepyCat, your goal is to demonstrate that your subject is notable by Wikipedia standards. Since Gong is a person, you can use either WP:NPERSON, for people (there are subcategories you may also want to look into), or WP:GNG, for general notability. Decide on what criteria you're using, and tailor your sources to that. Make sure all your sources fit the triple criteria in WP:42, and read through WP:BLP for the policy on articles about living people. I know this is a lot; unfortunately, as you're discovering, writing a new article is the hardest thing to do on Wikipedia, and writing about a living person is the hardest kind of article. Luckily all the policies and guidelines are clearly laid out, so you can see what you're trying to do and decide whether it's possible to write an article now or whether to wait a bit until there's more suitable sources out there.

03:46, 18 November 2024 review of submission by Rosebabysu

[edit]

Is there a reference template for creating new entries? I don't know whether the entry I submitted meets the typesetting requirements. Rosebabysu (talk) 03:46, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rosebabysu: sorry, I don't follow; can you clarify what you mean? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:06, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, @Rosebabysu. A "template" such as you are suggesting would only help with the appearance of the draft, and that is a superficial matter (it is important, but it can easily be fixed if it is not right).
The far more important - and more challenging - part of creating an article is getting the sources right.
Think of it like building a house. The appearance of the house is important - but if you haven't surveyed the site and found that it is suitable for building on, and built the foundations, then it is probably a waste of time trying to build the house.
The equivalent of surveying the site is to find the sources that will establish that Dai Ying is notable in Wikipedia's sense: you need to find at least three sources which
  • are reliably published - not social media, blogs, forums, or "news" sites which publish press releases with no editorial control.
  • are wholly independent of the subject - not written, published, or commissioned by the subject or their associates, and not based on an interview or press release.
  • contain significant coverage of the subject, not just passing mentions of them.
If you cannot find at least three sources that meet these criteria, then give up and choose a different subject. If you can, the next step is to forget everything you know about the subject, and write a summary of what those sources say.
I haven't attempted to get translations of your Chinese language sources, but the two in English only mention Dai Ying in order to quote him. These are useless for establishing notability.
More generally: My earnest advice to new editors is to not even think about trying to create an article until you have spent several weeks - at least - learning about how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles. Once you have understood core policies such as verifiability, neutral point of view, reliable, independent sources, and notability, and experienced how we handle disagreements with other editors (the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle), then you might be ready to read your first article carefully, and try creating a draft. I am aware that you created your account more than a year ago, but you have made only27 edits, and most of them are to this draft, so you are still a new editor.

04:48, 18 November 2024 review of submission by Moepilled

[edit]

I don't understand what I am doing wrong and why my submission is getting declined, the page includes most publicly available information about Nagomu with sources included. In the notes people said Niconico and Twitter, etc are not reliable sources, but I don't understand what they mean by that, and they removed the external links even though I thought that was for Social Media's and stuff (I based it off of Kikuo (musician)'s page). I am also neurodivergent and struggle to understand a lot of stuff on Wikipedia and what people mean, so please explain simply. Thank you in advance Moepilled (talk) 04:48, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Moepilled: the sources cited in this draft are of very poor quality. Take Twitter as an example: I can send out a tweet right now saying that the Moon is made of cheese (and that wouldn't be anywhere near the craziest tweets sent out today!). That doesn't make it so, and you shouldn't use my tweet as evidence that it is. We only accept sources that can actually be trusted to be correct in what they say. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:04, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But the thing is, it's Tweeted by the person who the page is about Moepilled (talk) 07:13, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Moepilled: okay, but that doesn't make it any more reliable. Forget my earlier Moon example. I can instead tweet to say that I'm the king of Atlantis. Would you trust that? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:28, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sometimes people exaggerate or lie about themselves. 331dot (talk) 10:02, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Moepilled, perhaps you would find WP:42 helpful - this is our 'golden rule' for sources and goes into some detail (with links) about what you're looking for. In short, you are looking for significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic. This means:
  • the source must be mostly or entirely about your subject;
  • the source must be from a place that is known to report factually and truthfully, that has an editor and fact-checkers, and that doesn't take payment in exchange for reporting (there's a list of sources at WP:RSPSS to look over, with information about whether we think they are reliable);
  • the source must not be connected to your subject (themself, their friends or family, their employer or employee, and so on are all connected).
All of those things must be true if you want to use something as a source. The musician's Twitter would fail 'reliable' (people can tell lies on Twitter) and 'independent' (the person tweeting is the subject).
If you want to look at good articles for musicians, try this list of Featured Articles - they are the best of the best and you can safely base a draft on them. The article you used as your example may not be a good article, but these will definitely all be good. Happy editing! StartGrammarTime (talk) 10:48, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

09:57, 18 November 2024 review of submission by 128.40.53.141

[edit]

I need help on how to correct the citations on the draft page for Bart please. Can you show me what I need to do to fix the citations, thanks. 128.40.53.141 (talk) 09:57, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IP editor, I think your citations look okay - I think the reviewer means that you need evidence to show that Vanhaesebroeck is notable as a professor/academic. The criteria you need to meet will be laid out at WP:NPROF (click that for a link), so see if you can find sources that match the information there. Does that help? StartGrammarTime (talk) 10:51, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the feedback. I understand that the person has to be notable. I will try again to add further references. 99.224.174.192 (talk) 12:40, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

12:39, 18 November 2024 review of submission by 99.224.174.192

[edit]

I am not understanding which ones of the references are not properly mentioned. Thanks for help in advance. 99.224.174.192 (talk) 12:39, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I can see, not one of your sources is relevant to establishing that Hopkins meets Wikipedia's criteria for notability. Most of them do not even mention Hopkins, and the two that do are written by him, and so not independent.
A Wikipedia article should be a summary of what people wholly unconnected with the subject have chosen to publish about the subject, and been published by somebody with a reputation for editorial control and fact-checking - and almost nothing else.
It seems to me that you have not cited a single source of that nature. Please see WP:42 for more information.
My earnest advice to new editors is to not even think about trying to create an article until you have spent several weeks - at least - learning about how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles. Once you have understood core policies such as verifiability, neutral point of view, reliable, independent sources, and notability, and experienced how we handle disagreements with other editors (the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle), then you might be ready to read your first article carefully, and try creating a draft.

15:09, 18 November 2024 review of submission by Itsmeblondie90

[edit]

Hi, curious as to why this submission was rejected. Could you clarify and maybe make a recommendation as to what could improve the article? Thanks. Itsmeblondie90 (talk) 15:09, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was declined, not rejected. Rejected has a specific meaning in the draft process, that a draft may not be resubmitted. Declined means that it may be resubmitted.
You have collated a list of events(some very minor) related to Ferris Wheels, but offered no reliable sources to indicate this is a distinct topic. 331dot (talk) 15:22, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

16:38, 18 November 2024 review of submission by Arched763

[edit]

Why does it keep getting deleted Arched763 (talk) 16:38, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Because you keep spamming it, @Arched763. Further spam drafts will lead to your account being blocked. qcne (talk) 16:44, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

16:57, 18 November 2024 review of submission by Jessica3801

[edit]

I was curious about the reason Draft:LegitTayUpdates was turned down? It says to check What wikipedia is not, which the page does not appear to violate. The comment about it being an unidentified individual isn't clear to me either, I didn't see anything anywhere about a lack of pseudonym being a requirement for pages. The incident that made her famous has enough coverage in my opinion to fulfill GNG as she is consistently still referred to and was discussed in scholarly articles about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and she did a lot of activism after the event that also received significant coverage. She seems to pretty clearly pass GNG, albeit pseudonymously. Are there edits that can be made that would lead to it getting approved? Jessica3801 (talk) 16:57, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please see your user talk page, as you are editing about the Israeli-Arab conflict, a topic area with its own special rules. Those rules mean that, if your draft was accepted, you could not edit it until your account is extended-confirmed(30 days old with 500 edits). 331dot (talk) 17:43, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jessica3801: To expand on what 331dot says above, I generally recommend new users stay away from any topic area listed at WP:General sanctions#Active sanctions, as the situation in them is so bad that it both ill-represents Wikipedia and is likely to draw unwanted (negative) attention towards yourself from more established partisans in them. (The Arab-Israeli conflict is so unbelievably toxic to work in that there's been four separate tries to break the back of the disputes over it, with a fifth being drafted up as we speak.) —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 17:59, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with what others said above, but still this individual appears to meet WP:GNG. I suggest resubmitting, making sure to edit with extra care. Perhaps @Tesleemah can explain better. Ca talk to me! 02:08, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you @Ca for the ping, the individual does not appear to meet GNG with Indepth Research. Most websites are interview granted by the subject such as this and this and this And to buttress the point made by @331dot and @Jéské Couriano, There should be clarity when writing about contentious topic and especially for a new editor, this is why I declined the draft. The topic is also ambiguous and requires caution, I feel @Jessica3801 is too new and not ready to bear the weight yet. I'm open to more discussion and opinion about the decline going forward. Tesleemah (talk) 02:37, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was unaware of the rules regarding contentious topics, thank you all for the heads up. In terms of GNG however, I do believe that she fits. While it is true that "most websites" are interviews, that's only 7 out of the 12 sources. The remaining 5 are completely independent of Na'ama and focus on her notability and the impact she had in her refusal. I'm willing to work on this article is still allowable because I do believe she meets notability guidelines and should have a page covering her in an encyclopedic fashion, how can I go about making it more clear and sensitive to the contentiousness of the subject? Is there a better place to talk about it like the draft's talk page? I can also work to be eligible to edit such pages if that is necessary for the draft to get published. EDIT: It's actually 6 sources that are interviews, 5 that are independent, and one that's not an interview but is the website of the person who helped design her book. -Jessica3801 (talk) 05:00, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's fine to talk about it here. The draft talk page is not likely to be seen by many other than yourself and reviewers.
I'm not clear on what her impact was. $2000 in fundraising was attributed to her, not a huge sum of money. Some sources briefly mention her as having some sort of impact on a subset of internet culture, I'm not sure what that is. It doesn't seem like others refused to join the IDF in solidarity with her, or that her refusal has impacted the war in some way. (one source noted that 1% of people refuse to join so it's not unheard of). If you do want to resubmit this I would suggest removing everything cited to an interview, then maybe the other stuff will be clearer. I sort of agree with the others here in that I would personally set this aside until you are extended-confirmed. Nothing will happen to the draft for six months(and even if deleted due to inactivity, it can be restored). 331dot (talk) 09:35, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I gotta say, that like the others, I'm also unconvinced of the notability. The sources that are all not interviews are basically just covering the same thing in slightly different matter from a few days in April 2019. This article just feels extremely WP:1E and I don't think it would survive a trip to AFD. This is another reason to hold off on this article; if it ended up in AFD, you wouldn't be able to participate in the discussion while a non-ECP editor.

[edit]

Can you please specify what sources are missing in the article?

Thanks a lot, WilNik WilNik (talk) 21:31, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's hard to tell how useful your sources are, because you give only a URL, and in most cases it points to the top level. Please see WP:REFB.
The purpose of a citation is for a reader to be able to say "Oh that's an interesting piece of information. I wonder if it's correct?" and be able to locate the cited source and see "Oh yes, this author, published by this reputable publisher, says that, so I can probably trust it". ("Oh, that was said by some random person on Twitter: I probably can't trust it"). Most of your citations don't help a reader do that - and much of the information in your draft is not cited to a source at all.
Please see WP:42 for information about what most of your cited sources should be.
My earnest advice to new editors is to not even think about trying to create an article until you have spent several weeks - at least - learning about how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles. Once you have understood core policies such as verifiability, neutral point of view, reliable, independent sources, and notability, and experienced how we handle disagreements with other editors (the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle), then you might be ready to read your first article carefully, and try creating a draft.

02:34, 19 November 2024 review of submission by Rosebabysu

[edit]

The draft character I submitted is a relatively popular figure, and there are many reports on her deeds, but I have been revising the draft and it has not been passed yet. I don’t know if the current data can be passed. In addition, I would like to ask about other things besides the reported data that can prove the popularity. In addition, are there any other methods that are more suitable for checking the popularity of a person or thing? Rosebabysu (talk) 02:34, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You need to find sources that are reliable, that are independent of the subject, and that are providing significant coverage about the subject. I'd have to agree with the drafter feedback; this article is a very long way from passing Articles for Deletion. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 04:43, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, @Rosebabysu. Please note that the "popularity" of a person or thing has no direct connection with whether or not they are notable in Wikipedia's sense. There are many YouTubers (to take one example) who are popular, but because nobody has written about them in a reliable source, they do not meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability. Conversely, there are many notable writers, politicians, engineers, etc who have never been "popular".
Notability is mostly about the answer to the question "Is there enough reliably published material available about this subject?", remembering that Wikipedia has little interest in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is almost entirely interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. If enough material is cited from independent sources to establish notability, a limited amount of uncontroversial factual information may be added from non-independent sources.

02:52, 19 November 2024 review of submission by Sethaw k.

[edit]

I would like to ask you about declined article that how will be able to resolve it Sethaw k. (talk) 02:52, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To resolve the issues, you'd have to write the article based on sources that are reliable and independent and actually about the subject. Five of the eight sources aren't about the subject at all and he's only mentioned in passing in the form of being quoted about another subject. Of the other three, you have something written by the subject, not about the subject, his LinkedinPage, and a list of him as a speaker at an event. There's not a single usable source here. And even with sources, the tone of the article is blatantly promotional, to the extent that I'm wondering if there's an undisclosed WP:COI here. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 04:39, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In light of the promotional tone, and the fact that a photograph that you uploaded and called your "own work" also appears on the web page for the event hosting Naripthaphan as a speaker, you need to clarify any undisclosed conflict of interest you have with the subject. And if you didn't create the photograph, you either need to get the proper licensing for it or remove it as a violation of our fairly strict rules about copyright. This last part is something you need to take care of immediately. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 16:52, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

05:19, 19 November 2024 review of submission by AjinkyaKinetic

[edit]

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing with the recent speedy deletion nomination placed on the Wikipedia draft page titled Draft: Ajinkya_Firodia. The page was tagged under section G11, with the reasoning that it is promotional.

I understand the concern regarding promotional content and I fully acknowledge the importance of ensuring that all Wikipedia entries adhere to the platform's guidelines and policies. We are committed to revising the page to align with Wikipedia’s standards for neutrality and encyclopedic tone.

To address the issues raised, we will be undertaking the following changes:

Rewriting the content to remove any promotional language or biased claims. Adding verifiable, reliable sources to support the information, ensuring it meets Wikipedia’s notability and citation requirements. Reframing the article to focus on the subject’s factual contributions, achievements, and relevant information, in line with Wikipedia’s biographical guidelines. We kindly request that you consider reviewing the draft after these revisions are made, and we would appreciate the opportunity to revise the content in a manner that complies with Wikipedia’s editorial standards. If the draft is deleted, we would happily provide further information and request restoration if necessary. AjinkyaKinetic (talk) 05:19, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@AjinkyaKinetic you can recreate the draft at any time, but if it is still promotional, it will be deleted again. Also, who's 'we'? Accounts should not be shared. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 05:22, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hey! I saw that my English translation of the japanese article XYZ-1 was rejected. I am just wondering how I can get my translation accepted, when the original article doesn`t have any sources. This is my first time translating an article, so I really appreciate any help I get. Considering the lack of sources in the original, is there anything I can do to for my translation to be accepted? All the information I included came from the original japanese article. Thanks in advance for helping! Kevsand04 (talk) 12:40, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Kevsand04. Each Wikipedia language project is entirely separate and unaffiliated, with different policies and guidelines. What may be acceptable on one may not be acceptable on this one. The English language Wikipedia project generally has the strictest notability, referencing, and content requirements of any of them.
Your draft has no sources and therefore wouldn't be accepted on the English Wikipedia. Please have a read of our Wikipedia:Verifiability policy. qcne (talk) 12:58, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the fandom page you cited says "This information could be from an unnamed book, but the most plausible explanation is that someone created the Wikipedia article as a prank". Wikipedia doesn't host hoaxes. qcne (talk) 12:58, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikiepdia has several articles about cryptids. Many of these can not be proven to actually exist. The article I translated is just like those; a cryptid that has reportedly been seen, but that can`t be confirmed. Kevsand04 (talk) 13:26, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
None the less, @Kevsand04, without sources an article cannot be accepted onto the English Wikipedia and your two sources (jp.wiki and fandom) are invalid. qcne (talk) 13:31, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, @Kevsand04. Existence is not a requirement for notability: We have articles on unicorns and on the Loch Ness Monster because they have been written about in reliable sources.
If several independent reliable sources have written about your cryptid, then it may meet English Wikipedia's criteria for notability, and an article is possible. If they haven't, then it isn't. ColinFine (talk) 22:14, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Dear Wikipedia Community/Help Desk,

I am writing to seek assistance with creating a Wikipedia page for Reena Gupta. While I understand the stringent notability guidelines, I believe that Reena Gupta's significant contributions in politics, academia, business and environment to warrant a Wikipedia page.

I've noticed that individuals like Fahad Ahmed, a politician and student activist, have Wikipedia pages. While Reena Gupta

I have gathered reliable sources such as news articles, academic papers. I am unsure about the specific steps to proceed and would appreciate any guidance.

Thank you Jeswanth2 (talk) 20:38, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have many sources, @Jeswanth2. Choose three, and only three, which all meet this criteria, and paste them here. qcne (talk) 20:40, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll also note, @Jeswanth2, you have already posted this question three other times and been given answers each time.
- October
- September
- July
Was there something you did not understand about the other times you were answered? qcne (talk) 20:45, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I am sorry for asking repeatedly.
I see two sections here. Which sources are you referring to Reliable Sources or Independent Sources? So that I'll do more research and get back.
Thank you once again. Jeswanth2 (talk) 21:06, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am looking for clarification, are you seeking to strengthen the reliable sources sesion or ensure the sources qualify as independent? I would appreciate if can help me understand this. Jeswanth2 (talk) 21:13, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have an association with this person or the apparatus of their political party? 331dot (talk) 21:26, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I do have an association with this person and their party's apparatus. Jeswanth2 (talk) 23:38, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sources must always be reliable, otherwise they can't be used at all. Independent and secondary sources are required to show notability. In addition, there must be significant coverage of the person in the source. You are asked to point out three sources that meet all these criteria. Please look at the decline notice from 11 July on your user talk page, where this is explained. --bonadea contributions talk 21:41, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi, thank you so much for reviewing! It would be great if I could get some detailed and structured advice on how to make the article less essay style and more like an encyclopedia. As currently, I'm citing all the credible published journal articles and am confused about what it means to take a neutral tone. Could you share some examples, like maybe one sentence from the article and one exemplar of how to make the adjustment? Thank you so much! 2607:F010:2E9:15:892F:3C4B:372C:C629 (talk) 22:20, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Any discussion would be largely academic, as the draft has been rejected and will not be considered further. 331dot (talk) 22:29, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This article would need a fundamental rewrite to be accepted. The draft in its current form states opinion as fact, contains unsourced statements, and original analysis. Please review WP:No original research and try taking a look at other philosophy articles. Ca talk to me! 00:09, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WTF it is very unfair and it is bias and racisms. Why BAYC pass but Azuki not consider further. FFFzzz (talk) 14:51, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Do not remove the decline notices from the draft. You have not shown that Azuki meets our Wikipedia:Notability criteria. If you feel at some point in the future that there are more sources that have come to light that do make it seem like the project meets the notability criteria, please message the rejecting review @CNMall41 and ask them to take another look.
On absolutely no account should you call volunteer editors racist. Further disruptive comments may lead to your account being blocked. qcne (talk) 14:54, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
okay then you tell me why BAYC meet the Wikipedia:Notability criteria https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bored_Ape just tell what difference between these two and i don't think they meet the criteria so i can report? Centralize authority really need to be banned. hilarious FFFzzz (talk) 15:05, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please see other stuff exists; each draft or article is judged on its own merits, not based on the presence of other articles that themselves may be inappropriate and just not addressed yet by a volunteer. If you feel that a particular article does not meet notability guidelines, feel free to take action to address that. 331dot (talk) 15:09, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bored Ape yes this one thank you FFFzzz (talk) 15:12, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We don't need the whole url when you link to another Wikipedia article. As I said, if you feel it does not meet guidelines, you are free to take action; edit it, propose its deletion, what have you. 331dot (talk) 15:14, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll note that the BAYC article has 76 sources and the Azuki draft has 8. More sources doesn't necessarily mean better, we would prefer quality over quantity, but looking at your draft I only see one source of any use (theblock.co). Whereas the BAYC article has several strong sources from reliable mainstream news websites. qcne (talk) 15:17, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure what sourcing has to do with race and bias. Wikipedia is based on significant coverage in reliable sources. I looked at the additions you have made since the numerous declines and the changes you made came no where near showing notability so there was no sense in even looking at specifics of the content. Now that we are here, given that you are the second account and bludgeoning the process, there are clear signs that you may have a WP:COI regarding this topic. Please read WP:COI and WP:PAID and make the appropriate disclosure if applicable. As far as the racist and bias comment, please address those concerns at WP:ANI if you feel strongly that is the case in this matter. --CNMall41 (talk) 17:55, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

14:51, 20 November 2024 review of submission by Damilare Okunola

[edit]

My article has been nominated for deletion and it saddens Me. I've seen the reasons for this nomination, however, I believe that the sources of the citations shared, all independent, are quite credible. Also, can I ask if the sources can be social media accounts? Will that suffice as well? Damilare Okunola (talk) 14:51, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Damilare Okunola, I nominated the sandbox for deletion as it was unambiguously an advertising and promotional in content. Wikipedia prohibits promotion, and you must write in a factually neutral way by summarising what reliable sources state about a topic. Sorry it has saddened you: writing a Wikipedia article as a new editor is very difficult and frustrating if you are not familiar with our policies and guidelines.
Social media very rarely suffices as a source: they are either primary or not reliable.
What we're looking for is significant coverage in multiple, independent, reliable, secondary sources that discuss the person and provide commentary, analysis, debate, etc.
Let me know if you have any questions. qcne (talk) 14:57, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your kind and honest response. I'll keep working on the points you raised. I read also that I cannot use an article from Nigeria Tennis Live's website - what if I have a genuine article from where which was from a honest feedback about the organization? I can share examples for your perusal. Damilare Okunola (talk) 15:00, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have any intel about Nigeria Tennis Live's status as a source: I can't find a discussion on our Wikipedia:WikiProject_Nigeria/Nigerian_sources guide or at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources. So it would depend on the context of the source and what you are trying to reference with it. Where did you read they cannot be used? qcne (talk) 15:07, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I cannot remember, but if it can be used, then there are quite a number of sources from Nigeria Tennis Live that are credible and independent that can be added. I'll edit the article appropriately and share, but please, I'm still learning the ropes, kindly help Me with possible corrections after the editing, until I finally get it. Damilare Okunola (talk) 15:09, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to make a new draft in your sandbox, but don't submit it for review (that way it won't be deleted if inappropriate) and then let me know when you're done by leaving a message on my User Talk page (feel free to take days or weeks) and I will have another look. qcne (talk) 15:13, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is very encouraging, thank you so much. I'll rework it and let you know. I appreciate your kind help. Damilare Okunola (talk) 15:24, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Qcneso, I've just seen that my initial update was deleted, I didn't know it would come that quickly, but it's fine. I've rewritten the article but I'm yet to submit for review. Could you kindly take a quick look so that I can know what else to work on? Thank you. Damilare Okunola (talk) 15:35, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see any updates in your contribution history, make sure you have pressed Publish changes to "save" the text. That doesn't publish it for review. qcne (talk) 15:39, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've just done that now. Hopefully, I am not tagged for deletion before you get to see it. Damilare Okunola (talk) 15:41, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I see it.
So, it is still written like an advert. Phrases like "a hub for tennis enthusiasts", "prominent voice", "founded with the aim", "The mission of" etc etc.
Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia: content should factually report on topics based off reliable sources. Whereas the content on the sandbox you've written might be appropriate as the About Us page on the Nigeria Tennis Live website, or an advert in a magazine.
You should find reliable independent sources (at least three) first that provide significant independent coverage; going beyond simply reporting routine business dealing or public relations statements. Analyses, commentary, debate, comparison by independent reliable journalists is the sort of thing we're looking for.
Once you've found those sources, paraphrase and summarise them in a neutral and encyclopaedic way. qcne (talk) 15:46, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thank you. I'll go again and share the update with you. I appreciate your time and help so far. Have a good one. Damilare Okunola (talk) 15:50, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Qcnecould you kindly take a quick look? Am I getting closer to the format? Just asking so that I can know if there's anything I'm doing better... Damilare Okunola (talk) 16:00, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Lets go through your four sources on your sandbox.
  1. Is a primary source, so not independent, so doesn't contribute to notability.
  2. As above.
  3. This is an okay source. It is based mostly on an interview with employees of Tennis Live but has just about enough independent analysis that it nudges it over into acceptable.
  4. This links to the homepage of a website, do you have a link to a specific page?
The content is written better, but still promotional in tone. Wikipedia doesn't really care what Nigeria Tennis Live does, but how independent secondary sources have covered it. qcne (talk) 18:52, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks a lot @QcneI'll go again in getting it out with a better tone and share with you again. Thank you! Damilare Okunola (talk) 11:56, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

How can i improve my article to get it published? Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 15:39, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Joer.Priority.Sports. I left you a message on your User Talk page yesterday. Please read and digest that, then reply there if you had further questions. qcne (talk) 15:41, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Qcne
I am an intern with no editing experience and I was told to post a biography about Ryan Richman, I read and digested the message of yours and ultimately I am still confused. Is there any way you would be able to help with the citations as I would like to fulfill my responsibilities to my boss. Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 15:46, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh dear, @Joer.Priority.Sports.
Firstly, have a read of Wikipedia:When your boss tells you to edit Wikipedia. And perhaps show your boss that page too. You'll need to make a paid editing disclosure (this is mandatory), follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Biographies require in-line citations. The tutorial I linked on your talk page, Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1, is going to be the easiest and most user-friendly way to cite properly.
However, writing for Wikipedia is hard and not a very fair job to put on an intern. We always recommend new editors spend a few weeks or months improving existing articles before diving into the difficult task of creating a new article. It's like being asked to perform in a concert when you've never played a flute before.
My best advice is to read those links, practice editing on your sandbox, and come back if you had more specific questions. qcne (talk) 15:49, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As an intern I am not payed so the paid editing disclosure does not apply to me. Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 16:34, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Joer.Priority.Sports, please read WP:PAID, which states "Interns are considered employees for this purpose. If they are directed or expected to edit Wikipedia as part of an internship, they must disclose." As an intern your "payment" is the work experience you are obtaining. Compensation doesn't have to be money or anything tangible. 331dot (talk) 16:39, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
May I request an editor to create an article on Ryan Richman ? Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 16:49, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can request it but that area is backlogged to the point of uselessness. (and you will still need to make the paid editing disclosure, a Terms of Use requirement) My advice is that, as already suggested to you, you read WP:BOSS and have your boss read it too. I'm sorry you've been put in a difficult position by your boss, but our only interest is in working according to our policies. 331dot (talk) 16:55, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have shown my boss the article you sent me and I truly appreciate your help and expertise. Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 17:14, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
After speaking with my boss I am wondering what the steps are for getting this article posted. We are a client services agency and boss is wondering how other G league coaches articles get posted and he also is wondering why it would be a conflict of interest.
Lets just say I make a paid editing disclosure and work the referencing kinks out of the equation. will my article still be posted ? Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 17:29, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a conflict of interest for you to edit about your company's clients. You have interests in your clients beyond merely contributing to this encyclopedia of human knowledge. To be frank, Wikipedia is unconcerned with your interests in your clients, our only interest is in writing an encyclopedia. Please read the conflict of interest policy for more information(it mentions a COI disclosure, the paid editing disclosure covers that in your case). Wikipedia articles are typically written by independent editors wholly unconnected with the topic, who take note of coverage of a topic in independent reliable sources and choose on their own to write about it.
Writing a new article is the most difficult task to perform on Wikipedia, and it's even harder with a conflict of interest. We usually recommend that new editors first gain experience and knowledge by editing existing articles in areas that interest them, to get a feel for how things work here and what is expected of article content. There is also a new user tutorial that is helpful.
The paid editing disclosure is mandatory for you, so you need to do that irrespective of the status of the draft. You need to remove anything sourced to YouTube(unless the videos are from reputable news outlets on their verified channel) as YouTube is not a reliable source. Your draft claims Mr. Richman has an "innovative" coaching style but has no source for that claim. The "personal life" section is similar, no sources for the claims made(like "commitment to family, community, and basketball"). 331dot (talk) 17:49, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's also worth noting, @Joer.Priority.Sports, that Wikipedia has many millions of articles and tens of thousands of them are poor quality and should be deleted. As we're a volunteer project, bad articles slip through the net. So don't compare new drafts to existing articles (unless rated WP:GOOD). qcne (talk) 18:47, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Qcne and @331dot Thank you both for the feedback and all of your assistance. Joer.Priority.Sports (talk) 19:13, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Writer Johnc If you work for this company, that must be disclosed, see paid editing as well as conflict of interest. Your draft does little more than tell of the existence of the company; Wikipedia articles about companies must summarize what independent reliable sources with sigificant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. 331dot (talk) 16:44, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @DonnaJRick. You have resubmitted the draft (which was declined, not rejected: rejected here means it's the end of the road), and a reviewer will get to it at some time: please be patient.
In the meantime, it is worth examining each of your sources against the triple criteria in WP:42: only sources that meet all three parts are capable of contributing to establishin that Brady meets Wikipedia's criteria for notability. Several of your sources are published by the military, and so are not independent. That doesn't mean you can't use them in limited ways (see WP:PRIMARY) but it means that they do not contribute to establishing notability. ColinFine (talk) 22:19, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

My submission for Nick Barili was declined with the reason: "This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article."

I have since updated the draft to include references to significant and independent coverage from notable publications such as the LA Times, Deadline, The Oscars, Billboard, Rolling Stone, Princeton, CBS News, ABC News, Popsugar, HOLA Mag, Complex, Vibe, and Hip Hop DX.

Could you please advise if there are additional areas I should improve to demonstrate notability or address any other concerns? I want to ensure that the article aligns with Wikipedia's standards for verifiability and notability.

09:07, 21 November 2024 review of submission by Mydaemonthirst

[edit]

I need to understand what sources I am allowed to use. I created a further draft 'Swindon Health Hydro, Formerly Known as Milton Road Baths' because I wanted to change the title and I wanted to be more thorough with the details of the building's history, backed up with more references. If I know what I can and can't cite then I will find other references, however long that takes. The 'Swindon Victorian Baths' article is about just one element of the building and is part of the story of the Victorian Turkish baths movement - it deserves to be kept separate as part of that story, with a cross-reference from an article about the Health Hydro. Mydaemonthirst (talk) 09:07, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mydaemonthirst There is a strong suggestion by Robert McClenon that your work has a better home in Swindon Victorian Turkish Baths and that it be merged there. You may wish to discuss this with them directly.
Please do not create further drafts. The eventual name is flexible and can be decided at any time.
With regard to sources, the term Reliable Sources excludes anything that has no strong professional editor oversight. This excludes blogs, amateur websites, almost all of Youtube, etc etc. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 09:46, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Putting the story of the Health Hydro into an article on the Turkish baths would not be right.
As I've stated several times already there are strong reasons for my objection to subsuming the Health Hydro in an article about the Turkish baths:
  1. The Turkish baths are just one part of the Health Hydro - telling the story of the whole building in an article about just one element would be a wasted effort - no-one would look for the Health Hydro in an article on Swindon Victorian Turkish Baths.
  2. People have clearly made an effort to tell the story of the Victorian Turkish Baths movement of which the Swindon article is just one element. Surely that story should be left to stand?
  3. An article on the Health Hydro would leave the Turkish as about one twentieth of the story, if that. The Health Hydro has two swimming pools and a 'dry side' that is about two thirds of the building. The large pool hall is a remarkable space that looks more like a railway station than a baths. The small pool has it's own story - originally the ladies' pool, it became the pool in which generations of Swindonians learnt to swim. The dry side first housed the Medical Fund Society's broad range of medical services (that Nye Bevan cited as an inspiration for the NHS), then an NHS Medical Centre, then a whole range of complementary medical offerings and is now entering a new phase in which it's unclear what will be there.
I do not understand why there can't be a separate article on the Health Hydro, cross-referenced to the existing article. Then the full story of the Hydro could be told, whilst preserving the story of the Victorian Turkish baths movement.
I'll return to the Swindon Health Hydro, add more details to that but ensure that the references are valid. Where this leaves unsupported information I'll have to hunt down approved sources. Mydaemonthirst (talk) 14:25, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, @Mydaemonthirst. When you say "I'll have to hunt down approved sources", you are showing that, like most drafts written by inexperienced editors, you have written it WP:BACKWARDS. An article should contain not one single piece of information which is not verifiable from a reliable published source. Not one.
More generally My earnest advice to new editors is to not even think about trying to create an article until you have spent several weeks - at least - learning about how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles. Once you have understood core policies such as verifiability, neutral point of view, reliable, independent sources, and notability, and experienced how we handle disagreements with other editors (the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle), then you might be ready to read your first article carefully, and try creating a draft. (I'm aware that you created your account three years ago, but you had made only a single edit before you started working on this subject). ColinFine (talk) 15:55, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I had solid information - just not acceptable to Wikipedia. For instance, I found papers in the reference library and I downloaded documents from the council's planning website. So I did have solid sources (I now understand that these are not acceptable to Wikipedia). So the article is factual and, locally, I could back it up. Now there are one or two areas that I need to back up with further documentation that I can cite on Wikipedia. Mydaemonthirst (talk) 16:13, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Eminrg It is mandatory that articles are properly referenced (see WP:VERIFY) and that the topic itself meets our notability criteria (see WP:NOTABILITY). I am not convinced this topic is notable, especially as you used an AI chatbot to generate most of the text. I would recommend working on improving the existing LGBT articles instead of working on this rejected draft.

Could it please be accepted, or at least elaborated on as to why it was declined? Thocsburg Fish (talk) 14:36, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Thocsburg Fish: this draft was declined because it is supported by only one source (which is merely listed in the 'External links' section, without being actually cited anywhere), and that source is may or may not be reliable. In any event, a single source is not enough to show that the subject is notable, which would have been another possible reason to decline this. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:57, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Am I able to use sources from University's website to cite an information that is directly mentioned the location within the university, also why is my source considered unreliable?? Karnnut Ngamvitroje (talk) 14:59, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @Karnnut Ngamvitroje. Wikipedia has little interest in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is almost entirely interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. If enough material is cited from independent sources to establish notability, a limited amount of uncontroversial factual information may be added from non-independent sources.
This means that, while the university's own publications and website may be cited in limited ways, the bulk of the article must be based on sources unconnected with the university. ColinFine (talk) 15:58, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

04:09, 22 November 2024 review of submission by Rager7

[edit]

I have been trying to get the article created but have been rejected three times now. Once, it was due to the person who said it was AI written and was biased. I rewrote it by improving it and providing more sources. The second and third time around (different people by the way) reasoning of rejecting the draft is "it wasn't the best sourced and reliable sources are needed." I'm confused because it should have been accepted the second time around.

So, this leads to question or the problem of this article: Can you find more reliable sources and help improve the information of this article? If not, I presume that this article will go nowhere as the other people suggested that it's better for this article to be on a different wiki instead. Rager7 (talk) 04:09, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Rager7: the third decline was justified by virtue of there having been no improvement to the sourcing following the second decline, so it's effectively a second opinion by a different reviewer concurring with the previous assessment.
As for those sources, I presume FOX5NY is reliable enough. Rolling Stone can be a bit flaky at times, but let's assume it's also okay here. The rest look like blogs, podcasts, and similar, so I wouldn't consider those reliable.
Two reliable sources also isn't quite enough to establish notability per WP:GNG; we usually require three. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:57, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Could these sources be okay for the article then? Mitch Weiser and Bonnie Bickwit: Teenagers Disappeared Hitchhiking to a Concert - HubPages (HubPages.com) NY to Revisit Case of Kids Who Set Out for Concert, Vanished (newser.com) Two Teens Hitchhiked to a Concert. 50 Years Later, They Haven’t Come Home - COMBO - The Colorado Music Business Organization (coloradomusic.org).
Let me know which ones are reliable and can be put into the article. Sadly, there's not much to go off of here due to the lack of notoriety of this event. Rager7 (talk) 22:09, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please review this issue and clarify why it was deemed non-notable? I am committed to improving and editing the article further, but I need this specific concern to be reconsidered.

Hello, @Zhewar H. Ali. I haven't looked at your draft, but please note that "notable" has a special meaning for this purpose. "His contributions and influence as an activist and journalist" are irrelevant unless they have been written about by people wholly unconnected with him, and published in reliable sources.

I've made a note of that in the draft. There's no need to move this yet, since it will have to be moved in any case, if/when the draft is accepted. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:47, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Don't you think it's time to give this a rest? This is at least the fourth title where it has been attempted, and always failed, to create the article. The subject is clearly not notable.

Thank you for your response. Please check, I think it meets one of the eight academic-specific criteria because the subject is the immediate past Deputy Vice Chancellor of Redeemer's University and her successor, Ahmed Yerima has an article on Wikipedia which I used as a sample to make her article better. Kindly refer to Editors who can also assist in addressing the issues in the article. PFA (talk) 08:09, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Prince Folorunsho Adegoke: being deputy V-C does not satisfy WP:NACADEMIC #6, if that's what you mean; they would need to be the actual V-C for that. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:34, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
