Request on 02:15:45, 1 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Greatder

[edit]


Need help understanding why Draft:Ethercalc isn't notable enough. I got references from Opensource.com, softwaregarden.com, bricklin.com, aosabook.org, two Chinese refs and Security Boulevard sources.

Greatder (talk) 02:15, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Source 1- Maybe, though writer says doesnt take self too seriously. Source 2 through 5- all appear connected to company. Source 6 - Not even seeing mention. Source 7 - Interview, not even primary topic. Source 8 - Partner given they are hosting a distribution. Source 9 - github, not independent.
So you have 1 maybe good source and the rest are not independent sources to establish notability. Focus on finding Independent sources. Slywriter (talk) 16:41, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

06:18:50, 1 December 2021 review of draft by Wiki102030

[edit]


The page created below, was declined due to lack of reference. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Manta Five references have been already noted, all independent and reliable news publishers + the official website of "Manta" was linked by an "external link" format. Please let me know what more should be done in terms of backing up the facts dealt in the article so that it does not get declined.

Thanks

Not a single source is independent. They are press releases. Slywriter (talk) 17:40, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I want to know why the previous article was rejected by Wikipedia about Akribis Systems.

@Sjchin: Your second source is 404-compliant (it redirects to the homepage of an outlet called "The Japan Herald"), your third is the company itself, the Straits Times source is an interview with a company principal that hardly discusses the company in its extensive lede, your fifth source is redundant, and Arc is M&A news that doesn't help for notability. You have one usable source, which isn't enough to carry any sort of draft. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 19:15, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Hi Sjchin. If you mean why Draft:Akribis Systems has twice been declined, the reason is that it fails to show that the company is notable, that it has gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time to justify inclusion in the encyclopedia. Novice editors are usually advised to cite at least 3 independent, reliable, secondary sources that contain significant coverage of their topic. The draft cites 1, the article in The Business Times. The remaining sources do nothing to establish notability. Bisouv.com and ARC Advisory Group have no reputation for accuracy and fact checking. They are not reliable sources. The company's website and the primary source interview in The Straits Times lack independence; they are reliable support only for uncontroversial facts.
Perhaps you can find a different article in The Straits Times that isn't an interview and provides in-depth information and analysis of the company. Then you would need just one more. I searched 21 ProQuest databases and 25 EBSCO databases, but was unable to find a good third source for you. It's a bad idea to write about a company you work for. See WP:BFAQ#COMPANY for more information. --Worldbruce (talk) 19:23, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Anu Natesan (talk) 14:57, 1 December 2021 (UTC) Hi, I tried uploading a biography by the name of "Sivayogi". Why is it declined? What all information has to be provided?[reply]

@Anu Natesan: When you last asked for undeletion you were asked point-blank by an administrator what edits you were going to make as you did nothing when it was undeleted previously. Unless you're actually going to put in the work and effort to write this, any answer I give would be a waste of bytes. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 19:21, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am unsure why my page continues to be declined. Can you please pinpoint exactly what I need to do to complete my page properly.

thank you.

I've nominated your userpage for speedy deletion as Wikipedia is not for promoting yourself. Any article created requires reliable, independent sources. Slywriter (talk) 17:46, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chayote

Hi, thank you for reviewing my changes. The reason for decline was, that the written already exists… I am a bit confused because the chapter I have added (Industrial Use) does not yet exist on the Chayote page. I am aware, that the description exists, but I have added information about the size and weight of a single fruit. How can I add this information without posting the whole paragraph again?

Thanks for any help.

@Oasenn: This is for help with article drafts. For help with an actual article, start on that article's talk page (in this case, Talk:Chayote). —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 20:19, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
