01:43, 25 December 2023 review of submission by 102.88.34.63

[edit]

Why's my biography page not accepted 

102.88.34.63 (talk) 01:43, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This draft has been deleted as promotional. In any case, you shouldn't be writing about yourself (assuming that's what you mean by "my biography page"), for reasons outlined in WP:AUTOBIO. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:38, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

05:13, 25 December 2023 review of submission by BhikhariInformer

[edit]

I want to add an image of the artist but I am confused regarding the license and free use of the image restrictions. The image I want to add.....I have downloaded it from the artist's own Facebook page. So, can you please assist me regarding how should I upload the image and under which license and stuff .

Thanks BhikhariInformer (talk) 05:13, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@BhikhariInformer: short answer is no, you should not. Most images you find on the internet are subject to copyright, unless expressly and unambiguously noted otherwise.
In any case, you're talking about a published article, whereas this help desk is for drafts undergoing the AfC review process.
You should probably ask at the Commons, where they know much more about these things; see c:Help:Contents. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:35, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Thanks BhikhariInformer (talk) 08:57, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

05:32, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Monique Reymond

[edit]

while I understand the first drafts were problematic, corrections were made. I like wikipedia a lot. But, I've noticed mistakes and tried to include verifiable proof of errors for those posts I've checked. That being said, I believe there is sexism who are all to active in presenting their misogyny on this forum. This is terribly disappointing. Monique Reymond (talk) 05:32, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Monique Reymond: and Merry Christmas to you, too! Did you have an actual question to ask, or you just wanted to hurl some accusations around? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:31, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I actually do have questions. Why would a Los Angeles Times article be close but not close enough? I understand that wikipedia is self-governing, but, it seems strange that one person has that much control of what content is relevant. Do you have any suggestions?

10:04, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Daninbrisvegas

[edit]

Page has been edited, with additional secondary sources added, close to 3 weeks now. There are far worse union pages that are published. When will it be reviewed? Daninbrisvegas (talk) 10:04, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Daninbrisvegas: this draft was resubmitted on the 11th, which by my reckoning was two weeks ago. As it says there, reviews can take 2-3 weeks, as we have 600+ other drafts to review also. Please be patient. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:12, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

10:41, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Lucid ua

[edit]

I cannot understand where my article does not meet the requirements, namely, where the article has a non-encyclopedic tone and why the sources I have cited are not reliable? lucid ua (talk) 10:41, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think that the problem is not so much that the sources are unreliable as not independent. If the term was introduced by CIPE, then an article about it needs to be based almost entirely on sources wholly unconnected with CIPE. If not enough such sources exist, then by definition, the concept is not at present notable in the sense that Wikipedia uses the word. ColinFine (talk) 11:51, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the simple and clear explanation! lucid ua (talk) 13:14, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

12:42, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Gwalior page

[edit]

Why the content is not available on google? What should be done to ensure it is there? 

Gwalior page (talk) 12:42, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

12:45, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Gwalior page

[edit]

the article, which is an Indian social worker's bio, has not been published. Why? Gwalior page (talk) 12:45, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

12:47, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Gwalior page

[edit]

Why the article submitted by me has not appeared? Gwalior page (talk) 12:47, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Gwalior page: please don't start multiple threads, thank you.
This draft has not been accepted, that's why it "has not appeared".
The draft is entirely unreferenced, with no evidence that the subject is notable. Please see WP:YFA for advice on article creation, and WP:REFB on referencing. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:12, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I left my usual deletion notice and critiqued the ref's mentioned on user's talk. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 15:44, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

参考资料不满足吗还是什么问题呢 Jark.ouyi (talk) 17:12, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Jark.ouyi: this is the English-language Wikipedia; please ask your questions in English. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 20:29, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What's the problem? Smalamin001 (talk) 18:48, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

18:52, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Smalamin001

[edit]

I'm not do any type of promotions. I think you have mistakes. I have created a new page about a small actor from Bangladesh his name is AL-AMIN. Who has gained 2 lakh subscribers on his YouTube channel at a very young age. Smalamin001 (talk) 18:52, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The page was blatant promotion from start to finish. If you can really post a whole page of stuff about how you are "a versatile and talented person", that you "can inspire and influence others with [your] words", and so on and so and so on... and really honestly not think that it's promotional, then you have such a blindness to the nature of your own writing that you may never be able to contribute in the neutral way required by Wikipedia. JBW (talk) 19:00, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Gaining "2 lakh subscribers on his YouTube channel" confers precisely zero notability. 19:52, 25 December 2023 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theroadislong (talk • contribs)

18:52, 25 December 2023 review of submission by Henry.precheur

[edit]

I made the suggested modifications, i removed the one article which was referred to twice as a footnote and I provided over 30 additional content showing notability, most remarkable: The subject being received twice by the Minister of housing (Mr. Eby is now the prime minister of British Columbia) to tackle the housing crisis. I also added numerous news releases ( more than 20) covering Aissa Aggoune as the French media liaison for the union and representing more than 500 tenants in the supreme court and winning the court cases despite not being a lawyer. I also included the Wikipedia article which already exists for the past few years and mentions the subject by name Aissa Aggoune. I also added the VTU website confirming the subject sits on the steering committee of the Union. I hope you will be satisfied with these changes and will move the article as accepted! Thank you and have a wonderful holiday season! Henry.precheur (talk) 18:52, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Henry.precheur: do you have a question you would like to ask? Otherwise all you need to do, now that the draft has been resubmitted, is to wait for the next review. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 20:27, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi DoubleGrazing, i was hoping that a senior editor like yourself would validate the changes i made and move the article into wikipedia please. given the changes made and articles added would you please take care of it ? Merry Christmas! Henry.precheur (talk) 17:43, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
