08:39:49, 4 July 2022 review of submission by Liselotte-Ufulu

[edit]


I don't quite understand, why this article sumbission has been declined. Could someone help me and tell me, what has to be added or deleted, to make it work?

Thanks in advance.

@Liselotte-Ufulu: it is promotional, with little or no encyclopaedic content. Not to mention that it is almost entirely unreferenced, and the two sources cited (one gov't website, the other an interview) do not contribute towards notability at all. --DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:45, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Liselotte-Ufulu (ec) I've fixed your draft link for proper display. You and your company seem to have a common misunderstanding as to what Wikipedia is. It is not a place for businesses to tell the world about themselves and what they do. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the business, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable business. We don't want to know what the company says about itself, or to merely have a list of the projects the company has been involved in, but sources that discuss on their own(and not prompted by, or based on materials from, the company) the significance or influence of the company in its field. You have two sources in your draft, and those sources do not seem to have significant coverage of your company- and most of the rest of the draft is unsourced. Unless you have at least three independent reliable sources with significant coverage of your company, your company has given you an impossible task. 331dot (talk) 08:50, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your feedback.
I added some sources and shortened the list of projects.
Would this be acceptable now?
Or could anyone probably help to edit in order to make it more neutral formulations? 78.48.78.157 (talk) 10:14, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Can anyone assist me in working on this page, to get it published and complete

Michaelsadams (talk) 09:27, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You will need to find multiple independent sources that cover the topic in significant depth, not an interview and not a Wiki. Theroadislong (talk) 09:35, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

11:32:23, 4 July 2022 review of draft by Mickduncan1968

[edit]


Hello, I am attempting to create a page about the Chief Magistrate of England and Wales. My submissions keep getting rejected due to a lack of references sources. My problem is that I am working directly with the current Chief Magistrate and the source of all the information is held in historic documents in his office, which are not publicly available. How can I get around this? Many thanks

Mickduncan1968 (talk) 11:32, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Mickduncan1968: the short answer is — you cannot get around it. All sources must be published; private correspondence, closed archives, etc. are not acceptable, because they cannot be verified by others. In any case, you shouldn't be basing the article on what the current postholder is telling you, but rather summarising what reliable and independent secondary sources have said about the subject. Without such sources, you cannot by definition have an article on this subject on Wikipedia. Or, put slightly differently, the article can only contain information which can be supported by such sources. Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:40, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hello,

I'm new in the Wikipedia World. I made my first contribution only a few weeks ago by publishing an article on the French Wikipedia about a paleontologist (François Escuillié). The draft that I submit to you today is the translated version of this article. I kept the same plan, the same layout, the same sources. I noticed however that there could be differences in the wikicode between the French versions and the English versions of the Wikipedia articles. So I wanted to know if there was no problem with this draft and if it was eligible for admissibility.

Thank you in advance, have a nice day,

--CoraLacoire (talk) 13:00, 4 July 2022 (UTC) CoraLacoire (talk) 13:00, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @CoraLacoire: you're effectively asking for someone to review this article, and that will happen one day when a reviewer gets around to it. But very briefly, some of the content isn't supported by referencing. Also, it's not immediately obvious what makes this person notable in Wikipedia terms. You might also prune that list of publications, as Wikipedia isn't meant to be a comprehensive catalogue of someone's entire output (not that this would be a reason to decline the draft, but still).

[edit]


my page got deleted for mpam FC and because it was for advertising which it was clearly not what do i do Demetrissss (talk) 17:54, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This draft didn't get deleted, it got declined. Not that it's likely to get published, either, as it stands, but still. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:23, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Demetrissss The article is about a football club which you say has only one player? That seems a bit odd. 71.228.112.175 (talk) 06:52, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

how can i get mpam fc page accepted and what do i have to add Demetrissss (talk) 18:29, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is nothing you can do. It was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. 331dot (talk) 20:37, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

As many other hotel groups in the wikipedia pages, we also think our hotel pages needs to be here. We have a history of 40 years to share about Swiss Hospitality.

Just blatant advertising. Theroadislong (talk) 21:09, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
