04:28:33, 8 September 2017 review of draft by Darkseid is

[edit]


I would like to know how to insert a picture into the InfoBox on my page. I uploaded my images to the UploadWizard, but they are not working when i add them to the infobox. Every time i try to add an image, the Wikipe-tan image shows up (and its pretty annoying). Can you give me a step by step instructions on how to add an image to the InfoBox? Thanks- "Darkseid is" Darkseid is (talk) 04:28, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Darkseid is. Wikipe-tan is annoying, but what she says in the caption is correct. "You can't use fair-use images outside of articlespace!" In other words, you may not add a copyrighted image being used under the fair-use provision to a draft. Wait until the draft becomes an article. Then, if it meets all ten criteria of WP:NFCC, add it. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:50, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

14:47:04, 8 September 2017 review of submission by Yowlanku

[edit]

I submitted the article almost a month ago, it was quickly declined by User:KGirlTrucker81 . I consulted with the user on how I can improve the page and worked on the article (the talk history is here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:KGirlTrucker81#Concern_about_approval_of_Draft:Madhav_Wagle ). I was suggested to wait patiently for the re-review of the submission. The footer message told me the backlog is huge and I should wait atleast 3 weeks. Can you please help me approve the article now? Yowlanku (talk) 14:47, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yowlanku. About 250 drafts have been waiting longer for a review. It may take volunteers another week or two to work through those and reach this one. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:56, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I wanted to know as to why the FlyLipheeRadio wasn't approved.

Hi Flylipheeradio The reason Draft:Avichi ( FlyLipheeRadio Records ) was declined is stated in the big pink box at the top of the draft. It was declined for failing to provide sufficient context for a general reader to understand the subject, and generally for being ineffective - not being clear, precise, and relevant to the reader. It could equally well have been declined for:
In short, the draft was declined for doing almost nothing right. Please review Wikipedia's policy on conflict of interest before further editing. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:52, 8 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
