Review of Draft:John Morris Anglin

What is the best way to insert a .jpg photo into my article. I clearly see the "Insert" and photo symbol, and using that does insert the position of the photo . . . but how do I upload the photo so it will appear in the article . . . or how do I instruct the program where to find that specific photo to upload?

@Mwanglin: Wikipedia:Images lists how to updload images. Please make sure the images you upload are appropriate to the Image Policy. Hasteur (talk) 13:15, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Your submission name hereNeil Harrap

Someone had placed material about me on Wikipedia that was very incomplete so I've endeavored to update it. I have provided links to the NY Times, CNN, NBC, Jeremy Clarkson at BBC, TripAdvisor, etc. Are they not sufficient? Neil 203.79.104.117 (talk) 04:56, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello Neil, thank you for adding these sources. I have removed the "blp prod" deletion template from the article, because the article cannot be deleted under that process when reliable sources exist. There are still numerous issues with the article, as described by the other templates that are still there. Hopefully these issues can be fixed in due course. It is recommended that you avoid editing the article directly, instead you could provide further sources, information and corrections on the talk page at Talk:Neil Harrap.

Review of Draft:Mineral & Gem International Show

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hugopottier Heyo, I just would like to know how long it takes to have a review ? I don't know if my article is at the right place... I made my article about "Mineral & Gem International Show" Hugopottier (talk) 07:35, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello Hugo. Your draft article is at the right place. The review process is currently severely backlogged, so it could take a very long time to be reviewed; possibly more than a month. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 09:56, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your answer. :)

Hugopottier (talk) 07:43, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

@Hugopottier:  Declined. I've already spammed your talk page, but please read WP:RS, WP:GNG, and WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Chris Troutman (talk) 08:02, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Virtual personal trainer (May 26)

Hi, I am seeking help having my phrase approved. Your submission at Articles for creation: Virtual personal trainer (May 26) What is my next step? Thank you. Duncanmt (talk) 13:25, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello Duncan. Draft:Virtual personal trainer was rejected because the reviewer believed the information would be better contained in the existing article Personal trainer, as noted on the draft page itself. I also noticed that at least one of the sources you provide is not about the topic that the draft purports to address. I'm not wholly sure of the next step, but how would you feel about adding information to that existing article instead? Arthur goes shopping (talk) 15:24, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Review of User:Dpanic/sandbox

Dear,

I am writing english article on page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Dpanic/sandbox

There is also article in Serbian language here: https://sr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orhan_Draga%C5%A1

I need help with uploading pictures, as I understand they're already on Wikipedia Serbian edition.

Also There is some issue with referencing, should I remove references to non existing pages?

Regards,

dolphin (talk) 17:05, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

@Dpanic: The image on the Serbian language Wikipedia can be uploaded at the file upload wizard. Your submission (as well as the SR Wiki article) lack references and fail WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO. Chris Troutman (talk) 18:32, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Review of Draft:Dojie's Law

Trying to get this up on your site, but I keep getting a message saying that it's not submitted for review, no matteer how many times I submit it for review. Help??

I have a lot of information to add regarding the history, additional title listings, etc.

How can I submit this for review when submitting it for review does not actually submit it for review????

Now I am getting warning messages on how I am submitting this to the page, and a referral to the help dask. I thought this WAS the help desk!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.105.177.172 (talk) 18:40, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

@76.105.177.172: First, your entry is submitted for review. Be aware that WP:NOBODYCARES. I understand a dog in Oregon got beat by an animal control officer and some Oregonians want to pass a law to criminalize that behavior but Wikipedia is not here to advertise that proposal. Furthermore, I'm not convinced despite the news coverage of the dog beating that the proposed law itself is notable. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:35, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
