Request on 03:04:45, 29 October 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by Tombrady33

[edit]


Somehow they keep calling my article Paul Revere and the Raiders and say it exist already. This rock group does have a page already but they changed their name to THE RAIDERS in 1970 through 1973. This was the only era I was covering and the four albums which were released under the name of THE RAIDERS and wanted to link each album listed in the discography with the addition information on my page . I also must admit I need to know two other things. How to make a contents box and how to upload a picture. Also what I do not understand is how if the page is only in my sandbox and not at its finaly address so I can I link the sections of my page with the discography page listing? I did manage to complete one page for your site but I must admit I am not on top of my game due to I am 63 years old. LOL. Anyway if you can help me with any of these matters I would love to hear from you. tom brady tombrady33

@Tombrady33: It seems to me that it does exist already, and that the page title you want needs to be a redirect to the main article, into which you need to merge the material you have. Splitting the two would be awkward and might be viewed as a WP:POVFORK, which is not a good thing. Fiddle Faddle 08:44, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo, I´m wondering why the submission "Draft:Oskar Stocker" was declined. Can you explain? What can I do?

Hi, Can you please give specifics about which areas need more referencing. To my mind, the issues which were brought up last time were dealt with. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

@Joebattimelli: I have analysed the references you have used on the draft itself and left you a full comment there. Fiddle Faddle 11:15, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I am failing to understand how the National Funding, Inc. page I have submitted is any more "like an advertisement" than those of their competitors: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnDeck https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kabbage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_Access_Network

Please help me understand what needs to be removed or edited in my submission for it to pass your rigorous standards. Thank you. Mbriggs619 (talk) 16:26, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Mbriggs619: No precedent is ever set by any article for any other. If it were we would have a brutally fast descent into idiocracy. If you want to look for good examples instead of the three you have looked at, please study the relevant area of WP:GA and consider their referencing. I will have a look at your draft shortly and see if I can add value to the prior reviews.
Thank you for highlighting at least two articles that should probably not be here. I have flagged them for community discussion. Fiddle Faddle 16:58, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I have left you a full comment on the draft itself. Please do come back with any specific questions. Fiddle Faddle 17:03, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


I am writing to ask for any help at all. This is the only page I have ever worked on. It has been a labor of love. My page on architect Shoji Sadao has been rejected at least three over the past year and a half to two years. Is there any way I can make the page simpler just to get something up? Sadao is in this late 80's and significant for his work and partnerships with Buckminster Fuller and Isamu Noguchi. Thank you for any help or guidance or suggestions that you might offer.
