September 12

[edit]

Hi there, I have submitted this article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Draft_1

and am wondering why it has been declined? The information in it is accurate and correct.

If it is the case that the company is not seen as 'noteable' how else can I get information about them on wikipedia?

Hope you can help, thanks for your time

Hi Ritchie - thanks for the guidance. Ive been asked to take a lead from the Direct Line page - and although they have two refernces in there, there isnt really much else that differs on their page than on ours?

QUTIPIN SR The above mentioned drug is being prescribed for Bipolar Disorder by psychiatrists in India. But, There seems to be no information, on Wikipedia.

I submitted a blank article by mistake, when my finger hit the return key or I clicked on 'save' by mistake. I did not submit an article yet. Thank you for your help and patience. Vince Dumond — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vincedumond (talkcontribs) 13:52, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be possible to approve my article, pending final review? It has been waiting for a second review for over three weeks and I keep checking back. I have tweaked it to better fit Wikipedia's style parameters and included references as requested.

Review of Francis Ruddle

[edit]

 Done Hi I have been updating the page I created about my ancestor Francis Ruddle, including fixing the problem noted by reviewer Ochiwar with the lack of page references. I have marked all these as minor edits bt I'm now thinking that this was a mistake as I now need somebody with the power to remove the editing comment about the lack of full references. How do I get another review undertaken? Thanks Jonathan Ruddle Jonathan ruddle (talk) 15:25, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks,

why my article was decline? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.80.98.227 (talk) 16:58, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because we already have an article on Bashar al-Assad and don't need a second one. Also, your draft didn't cite any sources. Huon (talk) 17:15, 12 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

I submitted an article for review yesterday, however I realize I need to correct several items in a minor edit. What do I do? Shall I make the corrections and resubmit it?

Thank you,

Hello,

I submitted a request for an article creation. It was rejected because, my references were not no the page. I was wondering if someone could re-evaluate it since I have made the necessary corrections.
