00:43:42, 20 October 2020 review of submission by FutureEnterprises

edit

I am trying to find the balance between the suggestion to not brag too much or make it sound like an advertisement, with also showing Davey Miller's importance to the surfing world. I wonder if someone familiar with the surfing world of the 80s and 90s might be found to review it and help me word it to match what would fit Wikipedia? It is my first time. Many of Davey Miller's contemporaries that he has actually ranked higher than and had shorter surfing careers have Wikipedia pages. He is sort of a top quarterback that made some amazing records that those in football world admire and respect, but he didn't ever win the superbowl. He is respected by the surfers in that he was after "some good surf" more than being the highest champion. Many of the surfers who tried some of the stunts he has done died, etc. I am waiting for the archives of the surfing magazines to get back to me. He was in the cover and had articles about him at least seven times that he remembers. I could show the covers, they are on his Facebook and Instagra, but we want to verify we have the rights to share them in the Wiki Commons system. When Davey Miller walks on a beach in California and Hawaii people still come up to praise him and tell him how amazing he is, so he is well known and has some "minor fame". His art is starting to become "a thing" in the art world, so I and many others think he is fitting of a Wikipedia article. Maybe we have to wait until the archives of the surfing magazines return our emails (if they have anyone employed to do that). Help and guidance and ideas on how to include or use the magazine covers with possible "rights" issues would be appreciated. If those covers would help establish he is worthy of a Wikipedia article. I see Alex Frey and other people I know have one and Davey Miller is just as famous, if not more. FutureEnterprises (talk) 00:43, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Literally none of the claims your draft makes is cited to a credible secondary source, and it's due to that that your draft is getting declined. The citation requirement is not optional. The draft itself also reads like it's promoting him, which is not acceptable. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 00:50, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A detailed comment was left... Hi, the article needs references to significant independent WP:Reliable sources such as newspapers, magazines, reliable websites, books. At least two good references are needed. Snowycats (talk) 04:50, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

why denied the sources are from her self directly and are real legit sources I am wondering why keep denied? If anything could be added to help be accepted please let know

This college is a well known college in Bangladesh. Here this article is not written to do advertising. People around Bangladesh search this college and didn't found much information about it. People seeking reliable information sources like Wikipedia. So for this purpose the article is created. Thanks (talk) 04:10, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rbshadow, It is written like an ad. Read this: WP:NPOV Snowycats (talk) 04:51, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

edit


Greetings, I need help just finishing this article up. The previous Article was created by another user and it was declined by the reviewer. I have edited the existing draft with some more notable references Including those of Lootcase, TVF Tripling, ad films, movie details, personal life[1]. The comment by the first Wikipedia reviewer was based on the first submitted draft by the other user. Yesterday when I submitted the article again, it got declined. The response was "The rejection said that it could be discussed before resubmission". I would greatly appreciate it if you kindly give me some feedback on this article and review this article. Thanks

We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. You still have claims in the article which require cites to credible secondary sources. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 14:43, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My wiki article has met the criteria for speedy deletion. However I have already fixed it. May I know how to get rid of the notice box?

Godbillywilly (talk) 07:00, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Godbillywilly, Your article has been deleted as it was clearly an advertisement. Snowycats (talk) 18:46, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Tried adding tags to the article for a speedy review but would not accept it as they said there is no draft title to that name :( I'm editing "Tutoroo" to add tags "Language", "Education", and "Companies"

Thank you!

P4muz (talk) 11:14, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@P4muz: I have added them for you. Note that the Inputbox on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Add_WikiProject_tags expects the drafts title including the "Draft:"-Prefix, so "Draft:Tutoroo" in this case. Victor Schmidt (talk) 12:13, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Question

edit

Why may drafts not improved be deleted after six months? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.83.64.170 (talk) 13:19, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Becuase Wikipedia is not a webhost for material found unsiutable for the encyclopedia. If one of the drafts edited by you have been deleted due to that, please go over to WP:REFUND/G13. Victor Schmidt (talk) 13:42, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, may I check what is lacking on this page in order to have it published? I have tried multiple times to edit and add information but it seems to be declined all the time. I will appreciate some clarity and guidance on the matter. Thanks!

Bryan103A, If you want a review and you have made significant changes since your last submission, you can submit it for review. Reviews are not completed in any particular order and we have a large backlog at the moment. Snowycats (talk) 18:45, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

14:51:57, 20 October 2020 review of draft by Danishom

edit


Hi,

I am new to Wikipedia. I created an article about Prof. Shabtay Dikstein, a globally recognized scientist, innovator, scientific author, founder of the Unit of Cell Pharmacology at the Hebrew University Hadassah medical school, founder of international committees and magazines, with multiple medical drugs on the market, and on and on.

When I submitted the draft (I think; working with Wiki is quite unintuitive :( ), I received a bunch of comments (not from a reviewer) on unverifiable sources, and the fact that he was still alive, and so on. I tried to understand how can I verify biographical events of his childhood in Fascist, then Communist Hungary, but received no reply.

The 90 year old Prof. is now suffering from cancer and I don't know how much longer he will live. I was hoping to present to him the Wiki article before he is gone, but I don't know what to do now. I was so frustrated by the process that I abandoned it for many months. Now, that the prof is somewhat recovered from the cancer therapy, I hope that I can complete the process.

Please help me out Thank you Dani Danishom (talk) 14:51, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. I sympathise, but even if he were to perish at this very moment you would still be obligated to have a credible secondary source for every single claim the article makes, as our biographical requirements apply to recent decedants as well. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Takes a strong man to deny... 15:01, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

15:47:08, 20 October 2020 review of submission by Lewjon

edit

I do not understand why the page does not respect the aim of a publication. I tried to follow as much as possible the structure of every software developer, from Autodesk to Graphisoft. I added references, removed them when it was said that it was too commercial. I just want to add a piece of information about this software developer that is well known in the BIM industry and deserves to be part of the free encyclopedia, not ot mention that it is the most successful software developer in Italy in the AEC sector. How am I supposed to do so? Lewjon (talk) 15:47, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lewjon, This is clearly an advertisement and you did not make substantial changes from prior declines, leading to the rejection. Snowycats (talk) 18:45, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi :Snowycats, thanks for prompt reply. I don't know whether you are rerferring to my very last edit, but if you read the whole article, as I had submitted it at the beginning, you will notice a huge difference. Hence my request for advice and my suggestion of comparison with https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Graphisoft What does sound like an advertisement? I described the field of interest, I gave info on the company's history...what kind of information am I supposed to supply? I have applied further modifications and added more reference to show that this company deserves to be part of Wikipedia. The issue I have now is that I don't know where to submit it again. Is it something I can still do? Thanks for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lewjon (talk • contribs) 13:40, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

16:49:32, 20 October 2020 review of submission by Athousanddaysbefore

edit

I'd like to request a review of notability. There was a previous reviewer who rejected the article, but then decided that the subject matter being written about and awarded by the Austin Chronicle did in fact give suitable notability. Athousanddaysbefore (talk) 16:49, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Athousanddaysbefore, You have not made any meaningful edits since the previous revision. The article was rejected because of the minuscule edits that were made between previous declines. Do you have additional sources you can contribute? Snowycats (talk) 18:42, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]


Thank you, Snowycats. Please see below:

The following is a link to an awards page published on the Austin Chronicle, which is a notable publication in Austin, Texas. The band won Best Performing Metal Band, alongside Willie Nelson (who is a notable musician), who won Best Performing Country Band: https://www.austinchronicle.com/austin-music-awards/year:2018/category:best-performing-bands/

The band is also participating in a workshop at Sweetwater Studios, which is a notable recording studio based in one of the most well-known musical instrument supply stores: https://sweetwaterstudios.com/workshops/black-heart-saints/

The band was also selected to perform at South by Southwest Music Festival, one of the world's most well-known festivals, in 2020 and 2019: https://schedule.sxsw.com/2020/artists/2019517 https://schedule.sxsw.com/2019/artists/2014184

I believe these would establish notability as having been awarded a recognized, major award as well as participation in the festivals and studio workshop, but please let me know if it somehow does not. Thank you again for your review.

I am currently writing this page and a reviewer says it is not in an encyclopedia tone.

I would like someone to review and give me specific feedback on changing the tone. Thank you

I actually used Total as a guide to write this and that is why I am confused

I changed some of the sourcing. I believe the subject is notable enough for Wikipedia, and the article is in no way an advertisement Djb2183 (talk) 19:08, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I have been earnestly trying to prepare an entry for Dr. Boris Berenfeld. In response to feedback, I have made many changes. Yet, I'm told the entry still doesn't conform to Wikipedia's guidelines. I very much would like some concrete feedback as to how I can edit the entry so it will be approved and published. Please, can I get some assistance? Thank you.

HarveyYaz (talk) 19:52, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Harvey Yaz The draft has been rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. It reads as a PR piece. Do you have an association with this person? 331dot (talk) 20:09, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
