- Draft:Miloš Meier (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

{{SAFESUBST:Void|

Hi, my article about Miloš Meier has been declined 3 times because the article does not adequately show the subject's notability. Miloš Meier is considered as one of the best drummer in Czech republic. The information which I used are not subjective, for example where he studied or where he was born. So I do not understand why I cannot use them? You wrote to me to improve the submission's referencing, so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. Problem is that there do not exist any other sources. So what can I do? Is a solution to set Miloš Meier as a non-notiable musician? Or please tell me any other way how to include my article into Wikipedia.

Please explain more to us about the sources. Who publishes them and what is their editorial policy. Also please read WP:MUSIC --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 18:53, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Also, there are more sources. Here are some that might help: I found them from the links above the edit box, especially google
Lots of newspapers reviewed the supergroup.cz concert, even though it was (I think) one performance only
Also, look in specialist magazines for his genre.

- No draft specified!

I want to make an English edition of the French article chapelle Notre-Dame de Spéluque by translating it. Questions: - I assume that given the subject it would not be appropriate to fully translate the article into English and include the side bar and pictures? I am ready to replicate the entire article in English or do a summary - but need guidance please! I plan to also do the same for other articles on historic places in the area.

thanks! Penthrift (talk) 12:48, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

fr:Chapelle Notre-Dame de Spéluque looks interesting. At the moment English Wikipedia only has a few French chapels: Category:Chapels in France
Why do you make those assumptions?
Write or translate as much or as little as you want. Of course it is ok to start small, even with a stub, as long as you include a couple of sources to indicate its notability. I only translated one article from French Wikipedia that I recall, and it is still very short: Entremont (oppidum).
Why did you choose the Articles for Creation (AfC) project? I think you have been here long enough to be trusted to make an article without waiting for a review by an AfC volunteer. (As long as you don't have a conflict of interest.) You are welcome to use AfC if you choose.
You can click on one of these links and get started if you wish: Chapelle Notre-Dame de Spéluque or Special:Mypage/Chapelle Notre-Dame de Spéluque

My article submission was declined and I need assistance in understanding what I need to do to create an acceptable article. I wrote from a neutral point of view, using a range of independent, reliable, published sources, about a notable writer, so I'm at a loss as to where my work went awry.

@Adrienne Asher: It looks ok from a neutrality standpoint to me, except the use of the NYT quote in the lede, that should be attributed in the text. User:Elee - can you provide some more pointers as to what you saw in the review that meant it doesn't pass yet?
You need to declare your conflict of interest on English Wikipedia (not just at the Commons wiki) before your article can pass. See WP:COI for what and where.
