[edit]


Tell me how to write information about a person on Wikipedia.I wrote many times but it always declined.Give me an example.... M.Shoaib Anwar (talk) 01:15, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi M.Shoaib Anwar. More important than how to write about a person is who to write about. Wikipedia is not Facebook or LinkedIn, where anyone can write about themselves. There are more than 7 billion people on Earth; each of them has a story. Only a miniscule percentage of them are notable - remarkable enought to justify an encyclopedia article about them. A few examples of well-written biographies are: Charles Inglis (engineer), Emmy Noether, Norman Selfe, Joseph Francis Shea, Zhang Heng, and Otto Julius Zobel. You can find many more by browsing Wikipedia's featured articles. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:09, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fleejoseph (talk) 07:11, 10 June 2017 (UTC) Wondering what is status of photos being accepted for profile on Larry Thompson (humorist)and Penny Thompson. Miami Herald set up a new user account as instructed and emailed letter to wikicommons clearning its copyrights to both photos. This was more than a month ago. How can I track down the progress this is making toward finally having the photos posted online.

Hello, Fleejoseph. We here at Articles for Creation are definitely not the people you need to be talking to. I suggest that you post your query at Commons:OTRS/Noticeboard (probably the better venue) or at Commons:Help desk. I hope this response is helpful.

What are the big mistakes of kjelly sundberg?

What are the experiences he already been that he turns to be one of the successful investor.

Hello, Tonji. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. You are posing some fascinating questions here. Unfortunately, I don't know what mistakes Kjelly Sundberg has made, nor do I know what might have caused him to become a successful investor. I tried to find out by reading your draft, but your draft doesn't contain any information about him at all. I encourage you to work through our WP:Tutorial, which will provide the information that you'll need to craft a Wikipedia article. I hope this response has been helpful.
