The draft has been declined. It looks like an ordinary large mall, and does not look notable. Also, ths draft has grammatical errors. I would fix them myself if I thought the article would be approved. Sorry. David10244 (talk) 11:49, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:54:53, 27 February 2023 review of draft by Athomas3004

[edit]
I have tired to link more sources and remove Weasel words but with little sources available for this time I’m really struggling to not repeat sources, and I don’t fully understand the whole weasel word ordeal

Athomas3004 (talk) 13:54, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Athomas3004 weasel words are things like 'suffer his first defeat". Just say he was defeated, rather than something he suffered from. @InterstellarGamer12321 may have some additional examples they can share. If there are not sufficient in-depth sources about him to support WP:NBIO or WP:GNG then an article is not possible. I suggest checking Google Books and posting a note at WT:WikiProject Boxing to see if the are other editors interested in helping. Also, that quote is way too long. See MOS:QUOTES for guidance.

Where is my problem and how can I improve it to enter Wikipedia Amadacuper (talk) 13:55, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Amadacuper I've provided a link to the draft for you. First, I gather that you may be associated with this business, please read WP:COI and WP:PAID for information on required formal disclosures. There are also special rules for editing about cryptocurrency related topics, I will notify you of these on your user talk page.
Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about something and what it does or what its offerings are. A Wikipedia article about a business must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. Announcements of routine business activities, brief mentions, press releases and the like do not establish notability. Please read the messages left by reviewers, as well as the policies linked to therein, on your draft. 331dot (talk) 14:03, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I do not have this business related situation, how can I prove it for my article Amadacuper (talk) 14:50, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Amadacuper If you have no relationship with this business, you don't need to prove anything. How did you come to edit about it? 331dot (talk) 15:45, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The current feedback to me is that I have a relationship with the company. The business I am editing is just a business that has no profile on Wikipedia. So I try to create and contribute something. Excuse me, how can I write the information to pass the review? The wikipedia help and the review's feedback didn't help me Amadacuper (talk) 15:56, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Again, how did you come to pick this company to edit about, and not a different one? You didn't pick it at random. Wikipedia does not have profiles, not a single one. Wikipedia has articles. Articles summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. You did a nice job of telling of the existence of the company and its activities, but that's not what we are looking for. We are looking for sources that go into detail about what they see as significant or influential about the company. 331dot (talk) 16:04, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I can't find any mention of BYXG in any the draft's sources? Theroadislong (talk) 16:13, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am currently trying to write about some companies, and there is no information about a Paxful in the Wikipedia resource. I just saw companies trying to edit that were not in the resource. But you think that I have any relationship with the company, which should not be. My purpose is to learn and try to become a Wikipedian, to be able to contribute to the Wikipedia. I wish I could get help from the wiki Amadacuper (talk) 16:23, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Amadacuper Ok. You are not affiliated with BYXG. However, BYXG is not mentioned in the draft's sources, as Theroadislong has said above.
notability has a special definition on Wikipedia. It is not determined by views or virality but rather in-depth coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. In-depth, reliable sources, and independent are hard to judge. So, to learn to become a Wikipedian, I would recommend starting with an easier task. Copyedit or add wikilinks.
When I first started I jumped right into AfD which was a horrible idea. Now, with more experience poking around the many corners of Wikipedia, I can more accurately judge notability and know when to AfD, Merge, PROD, or Speedy Delete. Sungodtemple (talk • contribs) 22:24, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thank you, please guide me to learn the materials and tutorials, so that I can become a Wikipedian as soon as possible. Please provide some information Amadacuper (talk) 16:33, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Amadacuper I left you a welcome message on your talk page with some helpful information about editing Wikipedia. I also suggest reading Your first article. S0091 (talk) 16:38, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

14:48:12, 27 February 2023 review of submission by Babette van Leeuwen

[edit]

I would like to create a page for SensUs, an international student competition for biosensing. The draft has recently been rejected. The news sources that talk about this topic are Dutch. I was wondering, would it be possible to only create a Dutch wikipedia page on this topic? Babette van Leeuwen (talk) 14:48, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Babette van Leeuwen You declared a conflict of interest; what is the nature of it? As to your question, you would have to ask at the Dutch Wikipedia, which is a separate project with its own editors and policies. The reason it was declined(not rejected) has nothing to do with the sources being Dutch, which is permitted per policy. 331dot (talk) 15:49, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
nl-wiki doesn't appear to have clear notability guidelines so I don't really know what to advise. Here's their version of our "notability" page: [1]. If someone explains the notability standards to you briefly and clearly, I'd love to hear what they are! -- asilvering (talk) 23:00, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16:14:44, 27 February 2023 review of submission by THaywood

[edit]

I was wondering why it was declined and seeking help on how to improve this?


THaywood (talk) 16:14, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

THaywood The reviewer left their reason at the top of the draft. Do you have a specific question about that? 331dot (talk) 17:33, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:26:33, 27 February 2023 review of draft by WriterGP

[edit]


This has been rejected but I'm unsure of what is wrong with the citations I have given. Can someone please advise how I should change them? Thanks. WriterGP (talk) 17:26, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It was declined, not rejected. "Rejected" has a specific meaning, that resubmission would not be possible. Declined means resubmission is possible. 331dot (talk) 17:31, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
WriterGP, your article has just one reference at the end of most sections. See WP:MINREF for minimum standards. For example, you have a quote from the Middlesex County Times which is not supported by a footnote. Also, please use template citations like Template:Cite news which will make it easier to read for reviewers and anyone who needs to verify the information.

18:34:12, 27 February 2023 review of submission by Jamie Lachman

[edit]


Looking for a re-review as I do not understand why the article was refused - please explain - this is for a Dr Jamie Lachman at the UNiversity of Oxford to engage with others and to highlight his profile Jamie Lachman (talk) 18:34, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"to engage with others and to highlight his profile" I'm afraid that is NOT what Wikipedia is for, I suggest you use social media. Theroadislong (talk) 18:46, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Jamie Lachman Furthermore, if you are not Jamie Lachman, you will need to change your username as you cannot use his name as your username unless you are him. Please go to Special:GlobalRenameRequest or WP:CHUS to make a change request. 331dot (talk) 19:41, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'll add - Oxford is a bit odd about it, so it's possible Lachman is notable by Wikipedia's standards, but it's very unusual for someone at the rank of research/teaching fellow (even "senior") to pass the guidelines at WP:NPROF. It's the PI/prof level where you tend to meet those criteria. -- asilvering (talk) 22:56, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

22:33:35, 27 February 2023 review of submission by KANENASWiki

[edit]

I am a fan and i want more people to be able to reach the artist. This page is going to be more notable as time progresses he is young and passionate about his work, he is working as a food delivery in -5 Celcius please give him atleast that. Thank you very much!

KANENASWiki (talk) 22:33, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @KANENASWiki Wikipedia is an encyclopedia not social media so is not the correct venue to "reach an artist". Notability must already be met to warrant an article (see also WP:TOOSOON). The draft is rejected meaning it will no long be considered at this time. S0091 (talk) 22:47, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
His songs have literally milions of hits on youtube, also a reason i want this here is because i really like Wikipedia and it would mean a lot to me if you where a bit more linient i have been passivly using Wikipedia for years, let me be a bit more active. I could use some positive vibes right now. Becides how do i know when he is notable enough, i think he is but even more that he would. KANENASWiki (talk) 23:37, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@KANENASWiki Thanks for your support of the website, but we can't accept this article as notability hasn't been proved. He can be considered notable when there are multiple reliable, independent and in-depth sources about them. Additionally, the draft currently reads as promotional, which is not allowed on Wikipedia. As S0091 said above, the draft has been rejected and will not be considered at this time. Thanks, echidnaLives - talk - edits 23:44, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Fair nuff, i tried. KANENASWiki (talk) 00:29, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@KANENASWiki You're welcome to work on other articles. Attempting to create a new article from scratch can be difficult and discouraging. If you're still interested in contributing to Wikipedia or one of our sister projects, I would highly encourage you to work on smaller things, then work your way up to creating an article. See Help:Getting started and Wikipedia:Contributing to Wikipedia for some more information. Thanks, echidnaLives - talk - edits 00:59, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
