Why did you edit this. It was fine as it was. Germerican (talk) 10:57, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It wasn't something that would one day could be an *article*. (Which are what things submitted review are) The content was *somewhat* more appropriate for a talk page. Wikipedia is not Facebook.Naraht (talk) 13:15, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hello Wiki Pros...

I need some of your fine assistance with determining which sources I used are not a wiki "reliable source". If I know which ones to address I should be able to correct and move forwards. I want to thank everyone so far for their help and assistance and look forward to producing my first artificial.

Thanks and be safe...

16:09:38, 12 July 2022 review of draft by Naani1986

[edit]


My draft article was declined after submission. I have added additional citations to my draft. There was a note about the neutral tone, which I think I have maintained all over. Please help me with any suggestions for my draft article. Thank you! Naani1986 (talk) 16:09, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am not very experienced neither but I see the personal life section still don't have any reference. I think you could write some controversies related to him? You can also check WP:WEIGHT. QiuLiming1 (talk) 00:49, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

18:02:20, 12 July 2022 review of draft by QiuLiming1

[edit]


This draft was created 7 days ago, and it still hasn't been reviewed, so I went here to ask.(Other drafts I created often got refused in less than 3 days)

I cited a scholar journal 'art technology', it in total has over 3 million downloads, according to CNKI, [1]So I think it could easily pass notability guideline and be accepted.

@QiuLiming1: The review process doesn't work that way. It's naturally going to take longer because most of the sources are in Chinese (which generally returns word salad in automated translation), and thus would require someone who can read the language. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 18:49, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
User:QiuLiming1/Inappropriate illustrations of Chinese textbook got declined in 1 day. QiuLiming1 (talk) 18:56, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
And? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 18:58, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am just questioning does it always require a language expert to review a draft. QiuLiming1 (talk) 19:03, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

22:25:53, 12 July 2022 review of draft by Delaneysteve

[edit]


The reviewer who has rejected my latest draft for this entry indicates that the tone of the article is not formal, and that it uses "peacock" terms. I have looked at the definition of peacock terms, but I can't really find any examples of such language in my draft article. Furthermore, I believe the tone is indeed formal, and "just the facts". If someone (perhaps the reviewer) would like to point out specifically which terms are peacock, or where the tone drifts away from formal, than I would be able to address those issues. Failing that, I am at a loss to see what could/should be changed. Please advise!

@Delaneysteve: At the very least the list of courses and the results table need to be 86'd. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 22:33, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply Jéské. I modeled my entry after the Calgary Marathon entry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calgary_Marathon) which is already online, and has been for some time. That entry does include a list of results. I can certainly remove our table of results, and the list of courses, but they are indeed just simple facts. I had thought that providing factual evidence of the history of the event was actually necessary to prove that it deserved an entry.
Do you have any advice regarding the "peacock" comments of the second reviewer? Is "oldest" considered peacock? Delaneysteve (talk) 13:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

23:13:00, 12 July 2022 review of draft by Wriphe

[edit]


My article was declined on the grounds of failing to "meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes." I thought I had sufficient citations, and I didn't think any of my sources were unreliable. I'm not sure what exactly I need to do to correct my mistake. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Wriphe (talk) 23:13, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Wriphe: The "Works" section needs to have a source for each and every one. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 23:29, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. I assume using the artist's website for reference is a violation of Wikipedia's rules against self-citation, yes? (I see other visual artists have have no works listed. Can you advise whether it is better practice to omit individual works altogether?) Wriphe (talk) 00:35, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
sometime but not always, see WP:ABOUTSELF. QiuLiming1 (talk) 00:43, 13 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
