editTo whom it may concern,
I am trying to submit an article about my wife - Monika Szirbik Szlahotka, mezzo - soprano at "Banatul" Philharmony from Timisoara. I added references, articles from newspapers and news sites, as well the official site of the Philharmony where appears that she is employed there.
Please advice me what else should I do for the article to be accepted.

- First of all, you might want to have a look at our guideline on conflicts of interest - writig about people closely related to yourself, such as your wife, is discouraged.
- The draft's content currently is unverifiable - for example, none of the sources mentions Szirbik's role as Hansel in 2006, or just her date of birth. In fact, I don't think they mention her as a soloist at all, but only drop her name as one of multiple participats or part of a choir. None devotes even a single sentence to Szirbik on her own. That's not the significant coverage we need to establish her notability.
- A more technical issue: Currently all the footnotes are at the very end of the article. The sources are supposed to directly follow the statement they support so our readers can easily see which source supports which statement. Huon (talk) 09:45, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

editHello, Thank you, we will be adding references. Question: can you change the spelling Hagen to Hagan at the top where the article is identified; it should be Hagan with 2 A's not an E. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pm2726 (talk • contribs) 17:55, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- I've moved the page to the correct title. WP:Identifying reliable sources explains what kinds of sources we're interested in. WP:Referencing for beginners gives tips on how to format the references; in particular, footnotes and a dedicated "references" section would help find the references. I saw you already cite a newspaper article and a history textbook; the reviewer seems to have missed that. Of course, more references can never hurt. Huon (talk) 21:27, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
I've put the quoted text in {{quote}} tags, fixed references and formatting and added an infobox. At the moment, there seems to be plenty of info about the context in which he was elected but little about exactly how he fixed the problems once in office... I presume this is a work in progress?
