01:08:28, 14 October 2020 review of draft by Jack beanstalk

[edit]


I am confused about providing sources that meet eligibility as the sources quotes are from reputable news sources however I only have hard copies as the sources in question do not have online versions due to the time periods. How many reputable sources are needed and how do mange if the reputable sources are pre-internet. This is a small entry for a significant australian poly-artist whose works are displayed in a number of galleries as well as in the main street of a large Australian town.

Thank you

Jack beanstalk, I have left what I hope is a useful comment on your draft, and tidied it a little. I have not made a review, simply answered your query there. Fiddle Faddle 07:48, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Live netram If you have further comment, please edit this existing section, instead of creating additional sections. The reviewers have informed you of the reason for the rejection; do you have questions about those reasons? 331dot (talk) 07:18, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(1) We don't care about what you have to say about yourself. (2) We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. You need to provide a strong secondary source for every claim the article makes. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Hasteur Hasteur Ha-- oh.... 06:55, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

08:53:48, 14 October 2020 review of draft by Dartish

[edit]


I would like to learn more about citing my own work. I tried 3 times by now but every time my page did not submit. the problem was about the citation that I made. I can't add more citations about my work as I added 2 reliable sources in my article. also, I am the one who owns the information that is taking place in my article so it cant be unreliable. I don't know why you don't accept my work.

Thank you.


Dartish (talk) 08:53, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dartish: Short answer: You must demonstrate that the video game is notable. See our General Notability Guideline. The mere existence of a subject doesn't mean that it is notable enough for inclusion in an encyclopedia. Notabililty also can't be demonstrated through primary sources such as the site the video game is hosted on. Reliable, independent, mainstream secondary sources need to write about the game. That's it in a nutshell, but still read the WP:GNG. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:07, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hello, you could help me by giving me a procedure to follow.

I have two quality secondary sources; the vast majority of paragraphs are based on these two sources. I thought that quoting them as a reference once each was sufficient. Here are my two questions

1, do you think that Mrs Andersen with her career, her recordings ... deserves to have a page in Wikipedia? And that therefore the refusal is only due to my inexperience... More than 70 cd's and 33 lps are listed in Worldcat for Ms. Andersen.

2, should I fill in one or both of my two sources in each paragraph for the article to be accepted?

Yours sincerely

thank you in advance for your help

Guy

Wikipedia is not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Every claim you made needs a direct inline citation supporting the statement. See also WP:SELFPUB which limits self-published sources. Victor Schmidt mobil (talk) 10:32, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Has the references been referred for not ability? Anyway if Wikipedia feels otherwise, can't help it. Google eitherways shows a lot of results for the author and the same keeps popping up. So thanks for declining without going through the other language resources.

I need help just finishing this article up. There are not a lot of good sources for reviews, or just in general. I've been stuck on this article for the past month trying to figure out all this stuff. Talk ↔️ Contribs 13:40, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Matt (talk) 16:36, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I started working on a Wikipedia submission early in the summer of 2020. It is regarding Draft:James H. Higdon Sr. , who was an early settler in El Paso, Texas. He built one of the first homes in the Sunset District of El Paso. The idea of my submission came from a Wiki article on Sunset Heights, as many other contemporary settlers were mentioned, but not him.

I completed the article and submitted it in July. A reviewer replied, asking me to make some changes, all of which seemed fine to me in order to make the article more robust.

I made the changes and re-submitted on August 4, 2020. On August 5, a new reviewer (DGG) came in to the picture, with new issues not previously mentioned. Basically, he wanted the "tone" of the submission changed to a more abstract, "encyclopedia-like" one. I saw his point.

I then made quite a few edits and resubmitted. I've now waited about 2 1/2 months and find my submission still awaiting review. I think? Could you please advise me of the status? Thanks

@Matthewobrien: You never resubmitted it, which is why no one looked at it. Click the resubmit button at the top of your draft and it will be placed at the back of the queue. JTP (talk • contribs) 21:58, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Matthewobrien: Apologies, I didn't look close enough. It was submitted and was declined today. See your talk page for more detail. JTP (talk • contribs) 21:59, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


I am not sure why my submission is rejected. I have cited a Book and I have a link to proof than John Ming Yee Lee is an FAIA architect (AIA newsletter) There are links back to Edward Larrabee Barnes, partner as well.

(1) You're writing an encyclopaedia article, not PR trash. (2) We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Every claim the article makes MUST be cited to a strong secondary source that corroborates it. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 21:52, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ltwp (talk) 23:23, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! This article got rejected due to not having "reliable sources," despite the majority of our references being peer-reviewed scientific journals. I am curious if it is mainly a focus on citing secondary, rather than primary sources? Just looking for a bit more information here on the nature of the reasoning.

@Ltwp: who is "our"? Wikipedia accounts are single-person-only. As for the draft, IMO journals are often regarded as primary sources, the use of which is limited. Howewer, the draft seems to also have a paraphrase problem. Victor Schmidt mobil (talk) 06:06, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
