Chebyshevprove123 You don't ask a question, but your draft does not have any independent reliable sources to support its content. A Wikipedia article should only summarize what independent reliable sources state. 331dot (talk) 09:27, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Winecoffee, Your sources are entirely unusable. Also, if you are the subject, you should not be writing your own article. That is an enormous conflict of interest. It is next to impossible to write neutrally about yourself. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 19:16, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]


Hello: I am wondering why you state "This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia." This is modeled after Dr. Joel Emer's wikipedia page. Could you please advise what the issue is?

Thanks! -Shubu

That is, I am trying to understand what "This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia." means? Are you saying Shubu Mukherjee is not notable or the article itself hasn't been created to reflect that. Very few in the industry has gotten the Maurice Wilkes award for outstanding contributions to computer architecture. Shubu Mukherjee's name is listed there: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice_Wilkes_Award. Many in that list (including Christos) has a wikipedia page. Also, check https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthasarathy_Ranganathan. How is Shubu Mukherjee's page not sufficiently notable compared to these? Any help you provide would be greatly appreciated.

Shubu Mukherjee is also listed in your Fellows of ACM page on wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fellows_of_the_Association_for_Computing_Machinery. In fact, if you click on Shubu Mukherjee's name on this page, you get an error page: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:New_user_landing_page&page=Shubu+Mukherjee. Wouldn't it be nice to have an actual link?

With kind regards, Shubu Mukherjee

Your sources are very poor Wikipedia, Linked In and Amazon are never reliable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 16:56, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Removed anything advertising related, made the article more generic to display points of accuracy.

Connernudd (talk) 12:44, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Connernudd Your draft was rejected, not just declined, meaning that there is little to no chance it can meet Wikipedia guidelines. The draft has no independent reliable sources with significant coverage to support its content (no sources at all, actually). Wikipedia is not for merely telling about something. Please read Your first article. 331dot (talk) 12:48, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Why is it being rejected I wanted to know why because I want to know what I did wrong so I can change it. Micaha123 (talk) 13:43, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Micaha123 Your draft was rejected, meaning that there is little to no chance that it can be improved to meet Wikipedia's standards. Please understand that Wikipedia is not for merely telling about something. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources state about article subjects; you have offered no sources at all. If you just want to tell the world about what I assume is your esports team, you should use social media. 331dot (talk) 14:26, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

13:55:15, 29 April 2020 review of submission by Gitten4

[edit]

1. My draft has been denied for submission because it does not "show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject". I did enter external links as references where I could, but they don't seem to be showing up. So I would love help with adding sources. (This is my first time creating an article from scratch.) 2. Also, I know the subject (actor Mads Koudal) personally (he's a friend), and I've attempted to declare this on my user page, but I'm unsure if I did this correctly. Also, I'm unsure if it's best to leave the creation of the article to someone else. If possible, please let know where I may request assistance for this. Thank you :-). Gitten4 (talk) 13:55, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gitten4, For adding references properly please read the easy referencing guide. I have also fixed your COI declaration. In general, I would caution that it is very hard to write neutrally about someone you know. The guy looks only marginally notable at best, which would require you write a pretty good well sourced article. Everything needs a reliable source, you can't use things you know personally. I would say it is possible that you could create the article, but most folks in your situation would not be able to. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 19:15, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

14:41:10, 29 April 2020 review of submission by Ivanajuchelkova

[edit]

Hi, my article has been rejected twice as an advertisement and/or as biased etc. Would you please let me know what do I have to change for the article to get published – should we replace the photo with a different one? Should we replace specific words or references? We really do not want the article to be an advertisement so I would appreciate any help I can get. I am an office manager of the company run by Anna Maresova, so I disclaimed that I am a paid employee in my profile. Thank you very much. Ivanajuchelkova (talk) 14:41, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft has been rejected because it is contrary to Wikipedias objectives, it is just blatant advertising, if your company is notable someone unconnected with it will write an article. Theroadislong (talk) 14:44, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello sir , this is my first article with Wikipedia . This guy Yash Gupta is a famous entrepreneur here in India and has motivated me as a youngster . I am 24 and this guy being just 21 inspires me to work really harder as he is a self made man . He remains in news channels on television and also on news websites .

18:03:18, 29 April 2020 review of draft by Joejose1

[edit]


My draft was rejected for the third time. The latest one says that it reads like an advertisement. I followed the style and language in articles about other operating systems most similar to the what I made the article about. Linux Mint & Elementary OS Kindly help me make it better. My article and the articles linked about reads the same to me in tone.

Joejose1 (talk) 18:03, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Joejose1, Well the tone is not neutral, and its text reads promotinal. For example, having "Pop!_OS is strives to have a 'minimal amount of clutter on the desktop without distractions '." as the second sentence is not at all how we structure articles. We try not to quote manufacturers, let alone as the second sentence. In general, an article is not trying to sell a product, but rather provide a neutral...and almost uninterested...accounting of it.
Also, be careful about comparing your article to existing ones. Many of the articles on Wikipedia were created before we began the rigorous Article for Creation process. That means a lot of ...honestly junk articles were created, and many of them have slipped through the cracks. You can read more about the logical fallacies involved in article comparison at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 19:07, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the response. The second line was me following Linux Mint style. You might want to remove the second line in that article too. I've removed that line in mine. I've made some tweaks as well. Kindly give it one more read. Even in the Wikipedia:Good articles certified Debian it seems to just talk about it's features. It's so much more comprehensive but my question is related to the neutrality. What is the expected neutrality for an article about an Operating system. Joejose1 (talk) 20:21, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Joejose1, You may wish to ask at Wikipedia:WikiProject Linux for more guidance than I can give. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 22:56, 29 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

20:25:49, 29 April 2020 review of draft by 198.254.193.117

[edit]


I have made some changes to address concerns raised by an reviewer to an article previously submitted and rejected. How do I submit the changes?

The previous page had a box similar to this one, however it said not to make any changes in it, and to press "Publish changes".

Thank you.
