04:48:17, 3 December 2018 review of submission by Loonieeex

[edit]



In my opinion, Handy Backup is a program of significant importance. It exists since 2002, it has countless users throughout the world, and it is updating constantly. I don't think that all products listed in the List_of_backup_software are more important than Handy Backup. How I can rewrite an article to make it more important and helpful for Wikipedia users? Please give me an adivce.

Hi Loonieeex. Neither PCauthorities nor TechWibe exhibit the characteristics of reliable sources, so don't use them as references. PCMag and PCworld are acceptable sources, but not great ones. Look for more and better sources. Don't cherrypick sources. PCMag's June 17, 2003 review describes Handy Backup 3.9 as "mediocre and somewhat limiting". An encyclopedia such as Wikipedia is often more interested in the history of a thing than in its current state.
You may be able to get more advice by asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Software. In addition to Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)#Products and services, there's an essay on the notability of software products. If the topic doesn't meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, consider alternative outlets, such as Software Wikia. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:38, 7 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hey dear AfC-Team,

I filed a request a couple of weeks ago on the above mentioned article that was declined by a reviewer who has been banned since then and who I could not contact for further information due to that. So far I have not gotten a response to said request so I hope it is okay to give it another try. I'll quote my original request here:

"Hi there,

I recently tried to create this article on a piece of software on behalf of the company I'm working for. I created an article for both the German and English Wikipedia using mostly the same sources (unless there was a more useful source exclusive to either language). The German article was accepted without a problem while it did not pass review here. By now I know that the different Wikipedias operate quite differently, but I'd still like to know how specifically I can improve the draft so I can re-submit it at some point. Sadly I cannot contact the person responsible for the review since they have since then been blocked due to sock puppetry. Maybe somebody here can help me. Thanks a lot in advance!

best,

Dominik"

Have added references, to go with the matter [and, would add more], and believe - the content abides with the policies of Wikipedia. Please do the needful. Thanks. Sree-Kumar (talk) 09:30, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Have started this biography. I've chosen not too get into the full biog as I'd like the community to take it and "run with it" so to speak. There are specialists in this area, so rather than make a hash of the biog and then have someone correct it, I feel a fleshing out of the biog should come from the community. Hence, my submission is not the entire lifespan of the person.

Welcome feedback!

[edit]


The reviewer said "none of he sources cover Anna in detail" but the first source is her biography. Which states that she's an artist that appeared on America's Got Talent, was a Vine personality, and it also signed to a record label. The interview source discusses her mental health, which although is a primary source, other secondary sources included have also discussed her mental health. The interview article simply shows her commitment to bringing awareness to it. Sources on HuffPost, Mashable, and Hollywood Reporter verify her participation on America's Got Talent as well as her influence on Vine. These sources are independent and reliable, and they aren't press releases or some form of advertising. She is in the process of releasing an album on a major indie label, that has many notable artists signed under them. She is worth a wikipedia article because she fits the criteria.

Do notice that except is used (AllMusic is a good start), but everything else is a passing mention or primary. She needs multiple reliable secondary sources that cover her in detail. One is not enough (with that also being AllMusic bio to boot). Jovanmilic97 (talk) 15:30, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wells_Town_F.C

}}Hi Wiki users,

I'm currently creating a wiki page for a local football team where I live close to. My page has been reviewed and has come back as unable to publish due to not enough valid references (Which is understandable).

After some thorough research through the internet trying to find some valuable sources relating to Wells Town, it has come to my conclusion that there just isn't any relatable resources for them. (Not to get mixed up with Wells City FC - Two completely different clubs!) Wells Town FC has only recently started using social media for live score updates and future fixtures in the last 2 years. I have linked both their facebook page and twitter page to the wiki article. I can't seem to find any history of the Club apart from archives they have at the ground.

Can anyone please shed a little bit more light as to what I can do to improve my page?

Thanks, Candyman0120.

  • Not notable Your search for sources proves the page can't pass our notability guidelines. I suggest working on editing and improving existing topics that interest you before trying again to create a page from scratch. New pages are not that easy - you need to find notable verifiable topic not covered in the over 5 million existing pages and that is not easy. Legacypac (talk) 08:01, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


History about chatbots is very essential as people are still confused as to what chatbots really are. Although the page "chatbots" exists it speaks about chatbots as a whole. The page I created shows that chatbots were simple and later on, with companies like Google and apple realized its potential, it is being integrated into various applications. I agree, the content might be less, however, people will continue to add more in time. THere are so many chatbots being developed which also need to be included here. This page should summarize the entire history of popular chatbots for easy viewing
