Feedback from Kmceleny (2 January 2014)

Did you find the instructions clear?
  • the instruction where clear though not visual as button on the moonless site where not fitted correctly
How quickly was your submission reviewed?
  • my submission did not get a review as the wizard determined that my article could be a conflict or interest, even though non of the information I was going to provide is opinionated, there for cant be taken as a conflict of interest.
Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?
  • yes, let people apply articles and have a third part decide if the information provided is conflict of interest. So much information has been turned down all because it has a POSSIBILITY to be a conflict of interest, and even if this is so, other can edit the information to stop this.

Feedback from Vaaltje (16 January 2014)

Did you find the instructions clear?
  • I have several photographs that are clear for common use however I uploaded them previously and did not understand what kind of specific document(s) you are requiring to prove this. Most of the photos I took myself with one exception where I have verbal agreement to use. You have already deleted the jpegs from the W Commons and I am unable to override your system to re-upload (as you suggest to do); I continue to get the same error message that the file has been deleted because there is not enough 'proof' that the copyright is common. Please let me know how to remedy this. I have examined all of the pages where you discuss this and I cannot make sense out of what you are asking for. Can you please tell me how I can: 1) override your system and re-upload the jpegs that were deleted; 2) provide the exact documentation that you require. 3) get the photos back up and connected to a live page. Thank you in advance, Vaaltje

Feedback from 122.59.190.41 (15 February 2014)

I'm going to die soon, and I simply wanted to write a short article about my life, but Wikipedia will not allow me to do that. I intended using nothing but facts that could be verified elsewhere. However, apparently, you have decided to tar me with a brush - one that paints the worst of people instead of the best. You make the presumption that people are unable to differentiate between fact and fiction about their own lives. (conflict of interests?!).

I have decided to leave my fortune to another organisation instead, having found something nasty lurking at the heart of wikipedia. A system that allows the negative aspects of human behaviour to define the manner in which the positive ones can be presented and/or portrayed. This is in the same vein as ceding to a terrorist's demands, by changing one's society radically as to mitigate the terrorists affect, but as a side-effect causing the denizens of one's society to have to live as if under a despot's rule. Terrorism won.

Wikipedia appears to be acting under the same 'belief system' and this is both shameful and disappointing. As I fast approach my last hours of existence, I am saddened to find that the world I leave is a worse place than the one upon which I started.

p.s. I DO NOT irrevocably agree to release my contribution. I am offering feedback only, I am NOT providing you with words which you can present publicly.

I revoke all such privilege and wish it to be known that I DO NOT WANT THIS OR ANYTHING I HAVE EVER WRITTEN TO BE USED BY WIKIPEDIA. By clicking the 'Save page' button, I do NOT give you any form of ownership or rights of use of the sentences I have provide above. I have forwarded a copy of this to my lawyer whom will prosecute you to the full extent allowable by law if you (Wikipedia) use these words/sentences in a manner that is publicly accessible or viewable.

No

How quickly was your submission reviewed?

Quickly, but with not helpful feedback.

Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?

The talk help process was very good.

Many of the directions, for example, how to reach the editor who made a decision, are almost impossible to follow. They assume a great deal of background knowledge of navigating within the system.

Some of the responses were very helpful. The problems were navigating through issues . like how to respond to queries, etc. For example, I have a small request on linking to an article recently posted. It would assist navigation. However, I can't figure out how to get to the appropriate place.

Thank you for the work that you do. 20:17, 24 February 2014 (UTC)20:17, 24 February 2014 (UTC)~ Duane Campbell

Feedback from Tito john (9 March 2014)

Did you find the instructions clear?
  • No. For example, I did not realize until reading the message I received today that Articles for Creation is different from creating an article as a logged-in user.
How quickly was your submission reviewed?
  • I don't remember, but it was within a couple of weeks. It was reviewed at least twice, because I tried to modify it to meet the requirements. And here is where my biggest complaint lies. I chatted on IRC with several people who said they thought the citations were adequate and the subject met the notability test. But every time I submitted the article, it was rejected. Frankly, I had given up on the process; I have come across several articles on other people who have had roughly similar diplomatic careers and are similarly notable (Richard Burt, for example -- the difference being that he is an American) that seem to be much more thinly documented than my article, but were approved.
Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?
  • I think the emphasis on secondary sources may have been taken to extr!-- Answer next to the asterisks below the questions. You need not answer all -->

The instructions were clear and easy to follow, even for an inexperienced member of the Wiki community like me. However, the Article wizard could be improved by giving clearer guidelines on what a notable subject is and how to tell if the subject someone wants to write about is notable enough.

Thank you, 

   sincerely,

Book and Horse Lover

Feedback from Ev2geny (22 March 2014)

Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?

I think something goes wrong with AfC Helper script, which is seemed to be used to automatically fix certain errors. Specifically this script removes line breaks in the list of the named references, this in turn renders the list of named references unreadable for human in Wiki mark-up language.

One can see what I mean, if one checks the between 2 versions of my article, before and after clean up.

i have discovered some wikipedians being angry about some who uses wikipedia as fundraising organization, some were unhappy and said, that her daughter of eleven year of age was asked to bring money, but i mean how do the wikipedian's staffs got their pay, if not well arrenged, it's likely they would be begging money, but wikipedia staffs would have been sponsoring by the organizations, companies and governments, and if they don't have any of these, that's mean they would be begging for money, and it doesnt sound nice for our staffs begging money for maintenance and feeding, to avoid molestation, am suggesting to 'p2pu' sponsorers to please do some thing to better 'p2pu' staffs and some other maintenances, am Jesmion: 41.190.4.71 (talk) 10:53, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

Feedback from Rattyexaltations (28 March 2014)

Did you find the instructions clear?
  • No way! Confused the hell out of me. And my progress reports had three different, contradictory messages on it - refused submission at the top (I resubmitted, but it stayed at the top), pending submissions below that. That is REALLY counter-intuitive.
How quickly was your submission reviewed?
  • 13 days.
Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?
  • I'd like to, but I should have taken notes - 13 days ago is a long time for my memory. Certainly the instructions aren't clear at all, and the instructions being written in "markup" type language (like this window) is confusing for people who have knowledge in an area, want to submit, but know nothing about Wikipedia writing and don't have time to learn - which is my case. It makes it less accessible to experts who want to contribute to the awesomeness of Wikipedia, but are users. All of the helpfiles and etc. are jargon to the point of being incomprehensible shibboleths. (This is not a knock on Wikipedia - it is the most amazing thing ever, it could be just more easily accessible for potential submitters. Really, I have NO IDEA what the hell you guys are talking about, I had to go to third party videos on YouTube or Wordpress to find out how to do this.. and I still got it wrong, apparently.)

  • need to make the rejection process a bit more specific in terms of reasons...most of the time it opinion based, and different users' opinions vary...so one will reject it for a specific reason, and when it rectified, another will reject it for too much of it...get quite frustrating...

Feedback from Sucheta Raikar (9 June 2014)

  • Yes and No as a newcomer trying to do my best to follow instructions with many new Buzz words I had some trouble following instructions. Your help was important.
How quickly was your submission reviewed?
  • reasonably well, as an author you expect instant results, but I was well satisfied.
Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?

to the newcomer instruction language is very difficult; any way you can simplify would benefit the writer. Reviewers time would be reduced if the writer could meet requiremnts on the first pass. New writers by definition do not have enough experience in meeting the requirements, and yes the requiremnts are necessary. the people who have helped me were great and thoughtful, but for exanple I am lost on how to get back and thank them for their support. No I do not have suggestions on how to improve the process, only suggestion is as the new writer takes each step, someone should follow each step closely to see where it has problems-not easy.

  • I was pleased with the process in 2012, and it was a wonderful kickoff for an academic who teaches in areas such as Community integration and Family support. Keep the links on my email yet today.
Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?
  • I work with very broad audiences which include people with MDs, PhDs, Masters, Associate, Bachelors, and high school degrees. So ranking work in the field of family support as a C is not very helpful (conceptual level that is not in across fields from psychology, social work, categorical disabilities, special education, therapists and rehabilitation, psychiatrists, endocrinologists, family support coordinators, institutional and criminal justice personnel, villages in India), etc...
  • Push in those areas toward parent-professionals and then disjuncture with "behavioral medicine" or "brain injury" and communities. Need a professional community support level, and community services research level which goes through health services research, etc..

  • This entry was targeted for extremely strange editing. The last draft that I submitted had numerous references for each assertion. These have ALL been removed by some editor, and now the entry says it needs citations. I am not going to put them in again just to have them removed again. I put a lot of work into this article and it's all been trashed. Just now I added wiki links for Kathy Valentine and Jesse Sublett which had also been removed.

Did you find the instructions clear?

No. Wanted to create article directly but did not see option for doing that.

How quickly was your submission reviewed?

Do you have any suggestions to improve the process?

Yes. Dial back the "shoot 'em all and let the devil sort the mess" approach of automatically grading all new articles "Start" class. (The method taken by the gentleman who approved my request.) That's probably efficient for many new submissions, but it's demotivating toward new editors who put extensive work into drafts before submitting an article for creation. Really want to encourage diversity in editor pool? Try recognizing merit of contributions.

I think my submission was only accepted because the Wiki-community rallied round and redrafted my original submission and amendments into a more acceptable format. I and my former fellow pupils are eternally grateful for this essential help as there is now some small record of our former school for our offspring to refer to in our dotage. May I also take this opportunity of apologising for inadvertently not thanking people for their help the Wiki- comm
