Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Regional_Landscape_Park_Znesinnya

Resolved

Hello! My article on a protected area in Ukraine got declined. Now I added further sources. Can anyone tell me, if the article has now the format to be accepted? There is the problem that almost all sources are in Ukrainian. I have the impression that the article got declined not because of the quality of the sources but because of the lack of an Ukrainian speaking reviewer for the sources. In general there is only a few publications in English on Ukrainian protected areas, but that doesn't automatically mean that they are less notable than in other places of the world.

We're having some difficulty finding a reviewer who can read Ukrainian, sorry. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:10, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

I added some additional sources, submitted the draft again and hope this time a reviewer with knowledge of Ukrainian language will be found. Maybe someone who knows Polish and can read Cyrillic is also able to check the citations. Smoerreli (talk) 12:07, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Sorry. I killed six people while trying to force someone to review your submission, and due to strict rules I am not allowed to decline it further. Your submission is therefore at Regional Landscape Park Znesinnya for the new page patrollers to dent their teeth on. Please watchlist it. Good luck! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 01:28, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Ethopoeia

Hello!

A week or so ago, I submitted a page for creation. Later, I was notified that the page would not be accepted at this time. What was wrong with it? What can I do to improve?

Thank you so much for your help.

As the reviewer said (in the pink review box) the article already exists in mainspace at Ethopoeia, where you can help to improve it. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:03, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Basically if a topic already exists in the encyclopeadia we don't approve a second article on the same subject. You created another copy of the page in the main encyclopedia before your original version was assessed. So since the topic was already in wikipedia, we didn't need to approve the first copy. We don't need two articles on the same subject. Rankersbo (talk) 11:31, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Who created the technical figure, and how did they do so? Arthur goes shopping (talk) 11:46, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
