- Aidspored, Review WP:NACTOR. Snowycats (talk) 05:24, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
I received a rejection of "Michal Alberstein" and revised according to the general comments - not enough citations and not a neutral tone. I changed the tone and structure and added numerous citations (over 41 citations from journals and websites), and it was rejected again with the same general comments. I would be grateful for more specific advice on how to fit the text to Wikipedia.
Many thanks,
Nofit Amir

- Of those 41 citations, which three speak about Michal Alberstein, her life, her career, etc. in great detail? In order for an article subject to be considered notable by the Wikipedia community, we require that an article subject receive significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject. This means that for any article subject, we should expect to find multiple sources that are interested enough in Alberstein to have written detailed content about her personally, with little to no participation by her (i.e. not an interview, not a press release, not content written by her or by those close to her.)

[edit]
The article created for Sarva Yoga which is now at Draft:Sarva Yoga, was moved because of inadequate citations. There has been decent press coverage, directly of the subject as well as independently which was included as citations.
Would require help in improving the citations and to publish for review.
Kindly guide and help.

[edit]
Hi, I have written a draft biographical article for a British technologist called Kavita Kapoor. It is located in my sandbox at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Icleep/sandbox. I would like help on optimizing its layout, tags and title to assist the draft review process.

[edit]
The drop down arrow and the tab is not working for the subtopic "Early life" in this article. Can anyone please help me to fix it?

- We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Your draft has more existential issues than that - a lot of claims in it are unsourced. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 16:36, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

[edit]This is my first submission of a new page, and I need assistance with publishing images while I am a copyright holder of all of them. 125aps (talk) 15:53, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- @125aps: Hi, I just left a message on your talk page. If I'm not mistaken, you are the subject of the article? And it looks like you have submitted copyright statements for all 5 images you uploaded. Thanks for doing that. The following images, your paintings, should be fine:
- The 2016 photograph might be an issue since copyright usually belongs to the photographer, not the subject shown in the photo:
- I've cleaned up the image description files and added the {{OTRS pending}} tag. Oh, and please be careful using the {{ }} brackets. They only work with preexisting templates. If you type words in them, they won't show the way you want. Hope that helps Ytoyoda (talk) 16:18, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

[edit]
I had added more details to the article. Please review.
Sudhindra Athreya (talk) 16:27, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. You have no sources, and none of the external links in the article can be used as sources. Have newspapers, news magazines, and/or industrial journals written about him in some depth? —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 16:35, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- Sudhindra Athreya, since you are obviously related to this kid, you may lack the objectivity required to edit in this subject area, as you have a clear conflict of interest. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. It is not a social network site, nor is it a place to build monuments for people or pedestalise people. We care about notable people, and notability is established when you can demonstrate that multiple reliable independent sources have written about the subject in depth, without any provocation or participation from the subject or their relatives i.e. no interviews or press releases. I'm sure you can understand that winning "first place in cute participants" in a "fancy dress competition" would not make someone deserving of an encyclopedia article, nor would playing with LEGOs or singing songs and drawing. These all sound like run-of-the-mill activities for children. If you can demonstrate that the subject meets our general notability guideline, then we can re-address this. Until then, you are strongly discouraged from editing about this person, as your conflict of interest presents a significant ethical concern. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 14:55, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

I edited this article to include information as to why an entry on Brandon Fugal is notable. Please re-review. Ellegriffin (talk) 22:13, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
- @Ellegriffin: Interviews cannot be used to demonstrate notability, as we require independent sources, and an interview is dependent on the responses of the interviewee. Please see WP:GNG. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 22:17, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
@cyphoidbomb I removed that source.
