03:22:11, 18 December 2019 review of submission by Cyeks5Om

[edit]


I believe the page is important because its about a village.

Cyeks5Om (talk) 03:22, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cyeks5Om, You will need more than just three references. The existing refs do not cover the subject in enough detail to meet our notability guidelines. You need sources that are reliable, independent, and give significant coverage to the subject. If such sources cannot be found, the subject is not notable. If they can be found, please add them, and drop a note here so that a reviewer can re-activate your submission. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 05:59, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is no dispute as far as I can see about notability in the sense that Wong Weng-chi is a publically elected official in a national level election. There is no 'number' of references that qualifies for significant coverage - the reliability and independence of the sources should be taken into account. In this case we are citing national newspapers and his role in the articles is certainly more than a trivial mention. Wong is central to the articles' topic. We also have to take into account that many sources are in Chinese language newspapers that would not be suitable here. The particular elections have attracted a vast deal of attention (as can be seen by the detail to which wiki pages about them have been created such as 2019 Hong Kong local elections) and to the extent of International media coverage. It follows that those who are elected are certainly notable. As far as I can see, the page (now) meets wiki criteria for notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cyeks5Om (talk • contribs) 10:02, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You are basing your rationale on arguments that are not part of Wikipedia's notability guideline. None of the sources in the article qualify for WP:GNG. And there's no rule against non-English sources if you have such. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 10:12, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I have updated a new reference link. Kindly review it. Indianbeauty (talk) 04:57, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Indianbeauty, The sourcing is still insufficient. The advice of Theroadislong is correct: the subject is not notable and thus we cannot cover it. I suggest you turn your attention elsewhere on Wikipedia, and edit some existing articles. Making an article from scratch is the hardest thing on Wikipedia, and very few folks succeed on their first go. Editing some other articles will give you a feel for how the place works. If you have questions about Wikipedia or on where else to edit, you are welcome to ask them at the friendly Teahouse. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 05:56, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]


05:18:03, 18 December 2019 review of draft by Wikidevster

[edit]


Can I know in plain English not legal gibberish of why an article is rejected and what needs to be done to fix it... Wikidevster (talk) 05:18, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidevster, It needs sources and prose. You seem to be writing about an album, thus I suggest you read Contra (album) for an example of how an article about an album ought be written. Currently you have no sources (see how to properly add references at referencing for beginners). Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 05:51, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


How do I rename my draft?

Maddiedlt (talk) 06:04, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Maddiedlt: See Help:Move, which is what renaming pages is called on Wikipedia (it also moves the talk page, page history, etc.). In short, select Page->Move, in this case it would be at Special:MovePage/Draft:Roger_A._de_la_Torre,_MD. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 13:05, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

10:12:16, 18 December 2019 review of draft by Lmanenti

[edit]


Dear all, I would like to know if my article is under review. Many thanks.

Lmanenti (talk) 10:12, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Lmanenti: Hi, yes it's in the review queue. Unfortunately, it can take a long time to get reviewed because there are so many drafts waiting. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 13:03, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

11:56:31, 18 December 2019 review of submission by Bandaru Danaiah kavi garu

[edit]


I dont know why i have been rejected, can you please explain me why Bandaru Danaiah kavi garu (talk) 11:56, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bandaru Danaiah kavi garu: As the reason stated and linked to, the subject does not meet the notability threshold. You need multiple reliable independent in-depth sources that cover the subject. Also, you should properly WP:DISCLOSE the conflict of interest. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 13:02, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

37.6.253.37 (talk) 14:55, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have any questions? Your subject does not meet the notability criteria for musicians - Wikipedia:MUSICBIO, therefore they can't have an article. We would have no way to verify the contents of the article if there is no reliable coverage to base the article on. ~~ OxonAlex - talk 16:36, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

18:58:38, 18 December 2019 review of submission by Ehuff29

[edit]


My article was request was denied because it says it looks like a copy of this link: https://github.com/YetiForceCompany/YetiForceCRM/issues/11680, but that link contains no information in my article, and is about a completely different subject area. Can I ask you to please relook at this article and this link that you have sent me. You sent me a chat page about a discontinued CRM product; my original submission was about Digital Operations Platforms - which have been coined by (and sourced to) Forrester Research.

Ehuff29 (talk) 18:58, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ehuff29, you would need to contact the deleting administrator in this case. This would be HickoryOughtShirt?4. Only admins can see deleted articles. ~~ OxonAlex - talk 07:51, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

21:09:55, 18 December 2019 review of submission by Rshirale

[edit]

I understand the value of Wikipedia and thank you very much for re-reviewing the page. Harvard Business Analytics Program is a part of HBS, a very important program that's shaping analytics for the world. Having this on Wikipedia will definitely help spread the word. Please approve. Rshirale (talk) 21:09, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rshirale, the draft has been deleted as an administrator saw it as unambiguously promotional. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia containing neutrally written articles about notable topics, not a place to advertise a business. ~~ OxonAlex - talk 07:14, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]


21:43:47, 18 December 2019 review of draft by HLHJ

[edit]


I'm an experienced editor, and wanting to help out with the backlog, I found an article that's been here a really long time and fixed it up. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to just move it to the mainspace now. See talk page for comments on sourcing.

HLHJ (talk) 21:43, 18 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have reviewed and approved the submission. Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 19:19, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
