00:02:07, 21 November 2017 review of submission by Marcjport

[edit]


I want to create a brief page about my professional standing; both as a mechanism to demonstrate online content and reputation development competencies, and to secondarily assist in managing my own reputation. I imagine others have done this and I of course want to abide by all relevant and applicable best practices. Please advise on the best course of action/next steps. I know your time is valuable and I know how important Wikipedia is as a public resource and service; I am very grateful for your guidance.

Marc

@Marcjport: Best practice, best course of action? It's pretty simple, don't write about yourself. Wikipedia is not Facebook or LinkedIn, and is not to be used to manage your own reputation.
WP:BFAQ#COMPANY is written about organizations and companies, but applies equally well to individuals. --Worldbruce (talk) 01:19, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ife (talk) 05:44, 21 November 2017 (UTC) i dont know how to cite and a page needs it[reply]

Hello, Ife1599, please see WP:Referencing for beginners for basic information on referencing. JTP (talk • contribs) 14:39, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ife1599. It looks like you tried copying a reference from another article. That can work, but you have to be on the "edit source" tab of the article you're copying from rather than on the "read" tab. I've redone the first citation in a recommended way, and left the second citation for you to fix as an exercise. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:42, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hi All,

Thank you for the feedback to my article codeBeamer ALM draft. Hereby I need your feedback if I understood well the improvement proposals. This external link at Infoq was found very useful to explain the content therefore I would integrate an outline of it into the article: https://www.infoq.com/articles/alm-safety-critical . I found further great sources to improve the article: https://www.infoq.com/articles/tool-integration-hard-truth - that refers well to Tasktop and API based integration of ALM to the toolchain.. which is also in the upfront development of codeBeamer ALM, therefore this content can be also integrated in a section : "ALM/development Toolchain integration"- via APIs or Integration Hubs. Further content for consideration: https://www.infoq.com/articles/evaluation-alm-software - which talks about ROI issues of ALM.

Can you please confirm those sources could lead to improve my article?

Thanks Reka

@Reka Moksony: Hello, Reka. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. I must confess that I'm a bit puzzled by the suggestion that the "Safety Critical" article will make a useful addition to your submission's sourcing. That article appears to be a discussion of application lifecycle management (ALM) in general, whereas your submission is intended to be about one particular software product that might be used in that field. It seems to me that whatever material can be usefully gleaned from the "Safety Critical" article ought to be added to our ALM article, and not to your submission (and this is especially so given that the article is written by the founder of the company that developed this particular software application). I have the same concerns with the other articles linked in your question here -- none of them appear to be giving in-depth discussion to your particular product. But maybe I'm missing something and you might get a more helpful response from the reviewer who made the suggestion. You can find that person's name and Talk page link in the "decline box" near the top of your submission. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

I tried many times to submit a page sub reviewers are declining my submission

Adarshpadukone, you recieved the message DO NOT RESUBMIT twice. Wikipedia is not a social networking service like Facebook. This is not suitable for Wikipedia. Please stop resubmitting it. JTP (talk • contribs) 14:42, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

14:01:11, 21 November 2017 review of submission by A.w.i.au

[edit]


I am new to creating contents on Wikipedia, so I am not very well-versed as other users. Since the decline of the first draft, I have made some revisions on "Health Ecosystem". Would you please kindly give me some feedback on what to improve?

Thanks! A.w.i.au (talk) 14:01, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, A.w.i.au, the best way to ask for feedback is to resubmit your draft and await review from a reviewer. JTP (talk • contribs) 14:43, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

17:11:35, 21 November 2017 review of submission by Luminum

[edit]

I am not familiar with Wikipedia's new policy restricting new users from directly creating articles. After overhauling a previously deleted page, I inadvertently submitted it to draft, but based on my experience as an editor, believe that the article is sufficient to go directly to article space (though review is always appreciated). Since draft review is so backlogged, and I feel the article is sufficient as is, and any other issues can be handled via page tags, I'd like to remove it from draft review. Is there a formal process for doing so? Am I in violation of any policies if I directly move the article to article space via the article wizard? Thanks!Luminum (talk) 17:11, 21 November 2017 (UTC) Luminum (talk) 17:11, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Luminum: Hello, Luminum. You appear to be permitted to create articles directly in Main space, and there is no requirement that you continue to participate in the Articles for Creation process. If you'd like to have this moved into Main space, I'll be happy to do that for you. Be aware, however, that it will NOT be logged as an article "accepted" by us. But if that's not a concern, I'll be happy to move the page on your behalf. NewYorkActuary (talk) 22:51, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@NewYorkActuary: Thank you! That would be helpful. I was less clear on the process for removing the article from AfC.Luminum (talk) 16:18, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Luminum: The page has been moved. I leave it to you to add appropriate WikiProject banners on the Talk page. You might also want to modify your Sandbox to reflect the new location of the draft. Happy editing! NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:33, 22 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

20:16:31, 21 November 2017 review of submission by ErinD22

[edit]

Many different sources were used to draft this Wikipedia entry, including the one from Select Sacramento. There was no copying and pasting, although many details are the same since they are biographical. We are submitting this on behalf of Kevin and can likely get permission from Select Sacramento if there is a copyright issue. I'd like to know more about next steps so we can get this live.

Thank you ErinD22 (talk) 20:16, 21 November 2017 (UTC) ErinD22 (talk) 20:16, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@ErinD22: Hello, Erin. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. There are two things you might try. First, you can talk to the good folks over at WP:Copyright problems to find out how to get a suitable license for the material. Or, you can contact the reviewer who declined your draft and discuss how their concerns can be addressed. You'll find the reviewer's name and Talk page link in the "decline box" near the top of your submission. I hope this response has been helpful. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

20:31:53, 21 November 2017 review of submission by Katcrowe

[edit]


I have three issues:

(1) How does one insert the template for the information box into an existing draft?

(2) How does one get the proper formatting for the lead into an existing draft? Is there a template?

(3) I have my "Citations" heading appearing last in my submission. I have my "External Links" heading appearing second to last. I wish to have my "External Links" as the last heading. I cannot seem to switch these two heading. How is this accomplished?

Thank you for your assistance in advance.

Sincerely,

Katcrowe


Katcrowe (talk) 20:31, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Katcrowe: Hello, Kat. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. I took care of the lede and the reference section for you. As for the information box, you'll probably want to use either {{Infobox person}} or {{Infobox artist}}. Clicking on these links will give you instructions on how to use them. I hope this is helpful. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. NewYorkActuary (talk) 23:23, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

20:46:06, 21 November 2017 review of submission by Chockguzell

[edit]

The article was declined on the grounds that the page already exists. There are 3 other articles on someone called Artemidorus but these are not the same people as Artemidorus of Knidos (there was someone called Artemidorus of Ephesus, who was also around in the 1st century BCE). From my reading of the instructions I thought I should not try and disambiguate this myself. How should I resubmit yet make clear that the article is about another person called Artemidorus? Chockguzell (talk) 20:46, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Chockguzell. I'd just go ahead and re-submit your article, as the reviewer was mistaken in thinking that these people were the same. I'll leave a comment to reviewers on that page noting that they are not the same. Thanks. ProgrammingGeek talktome 23:34, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
