[edit]04:36:32, 30 March 2015 review of submission by 2605:E000:1126:8056:B050:D265:BFA3:B941
[edit]
I am trying to get a page approved. Ir was rejected because of citing. I am not certain what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. 2605:E000:1126:8056:B050:D265:BFA3:B941 (talk) 04:36, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

- There really is not enough references in your draft. I only see one but at least 2 independent substantial sources are needed. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:02, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

[edit]My enlightened spiritual writings are in the public domain and do not brook any cpyright material. All work mentioned is of my own writings brought about by my experience of the metaphysical breakthrough relating to the spiritual intervention of Universal Law.

- I have removed a large text posting here, as this is about questions. Are you talking about User:Tmglen/sandbox? If you want to donate material to Wikipedia, you can use the procedure at WP:Permit to prove who you are. However your writing does not appear suitable as an encyclopedia entry. Wikipedia does not contain "enlightened spiritual writings", but it may contain writings about enlightened spiritual writings. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:07, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

[edit]My recent article submission has been declined. Yet the same submission, in German, has been accepted. http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winterhalter_Gastronom I have merely used an English translation with the same links, yet it is deemed unsuitable. How can this be? 109.231.237.94 (talk) 09:35, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- Rules on German Wikipedia are different to here. We are very strict, as we want to ensure that the article would survive a deletion nomination. I will take a look. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 09:38, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- You will need at least two independent references. You seem to have one in a book, so please find another one, perhaps a newspaper article will do. The company's own web site is not independent. But you can use it for information. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:10, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
My writings have been wrongly classed as copyright - this is not so, as I have placed them in the public domain for some years and with good reason. The writings have also been cllassed as question when in fact they are a statement. Have I also understood correctly that any submissions become the property of Wikipaedia?

My draft was not accepted for publication because the sources were not reliable. I used trade journals, books, legitimate websites. This is a draft and I have a couple dozen subject matter experts who will enhance and update the article over time. How does something like this get published? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_revision_control
I would like to publish the article so my colleagues can begin to improve it.
Thank you.

- @SDLCwriter: Please read the comment left by TimTrent on your draft: "This depends on many primary sources. Sparing use is permissible, See WP:PRIMARY. We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, and in WP:RS please. See WP:42."
- You have reliable sources, but you need independent reliable sources. --Ahecht (TALK

20:22:34, 30 March 2015 review of submission by Amargue
[edit]
Hello,
I am new to posting on wikipedia and I was wondering if there was a way to have two sandbox articles at a time...or multiple at a time I should say? I keep going back to one that is currently pending for me and I don't know how to start a new one.
I would love assistance in figuring out how to make this happen without deleting my current sandbox article.
Thank you so much!

- You may have as many as you wish. One way to do this is to ask to create User:Amargue/another sandbox but this could say anything at all by typing what you want into the search box and following the dialogue. Fiddle Faddle 12:16, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
