00:15:38, 10 November 2016 review of submission by 2001:44B8:265:7C00:49A3:C14:EFED:B8AB edit
Thank you, Matthew Vanitas.
Re Dr Rob (Robert GB) Morrison, I probably need help as this is my first try, but I am baffled as to why this entry for Morrison is unacceptable (you say Morrison is not notable and thgat there are too many references to his own material), and could use some advice. I only cite one of Morrison's works, and that is his field guide - cited because it was an important element in his role in Australia's most significant criminal trial (Lindy and Michael Chamberlain). That national significance is independently assessed by the National Museum of Australia, and that is the citation there - not Morrison's words but the Museum's.
The Curiosity Show has its own Wikipedia entry as a groundbreaking TV series in Australia and Morrison is cited and quoted in it as one of the people responsible. Morrison's partner in that series, Dr Deane Hutton has been given a Wikipedia entry, and it seems anomalous that Morrison should not have one as he has been recognised with high national honours, is exceptional in having won Australia's top science prize, the Eureka Prize, not once but twice, has been awarded the Order of Australia and other high awards and was the Senior Australian of the Year (SA). The citations providing evidence for this are of independent bodies or authorities, and none cite Morrison himself.
Morrison is in great demand for public speaking, science panels etc, and continues to present on his own and with Hutton, for example in TedX talks. When people look for biographical material they find Hutton and Curiosity Show in Wikipedia but not Morrison.
I can provide more links to independent bodies (Eureka Prizes, Australia Day Council, National Museum of Australia etc) that comment on Morrison but I noted somewhere that you don't want too many links.
Can you advise further?

- The draft in question is Draft:Dr Rob (Robert GB) Morrison. It wasn't easy to determine what draft you were asking about, because the two posts here are the only edits from your IP address. As the reviewer said, your submission was declined because you did not provide any references that write about Morrison. The only reference that you provided is his own work, and that does not establish notability. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:34, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

My article gives the basic information about "The Media Ant". The words used in the article don't have any copyright issues. Also it do not contain any word which makes the article as promotional article. It's really important to have the article on Wiki because "The Media Ant" is India's first E-commerce media buying firm. Please review it again. Incase you come across any issue, kindly let me know.
Thanks
- Hello, Ashish. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. I took a look at your submission and found that you have not demonstrated that your organisation is "notable" in the sense that Wikipedia uses that word. To make this demonstration, you will need to show that the organisation has received in-depth coverage from multiple reliable sources who are each independent of the organisation. As of now, your submission has not done that and is unlikely to be accepted until it does. NewYorkActuary (talk) 12:26, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

- Hello, Paritosh. Thank you for your interest in Wikipedia. A good place to read about writing articles is our page on "Your first article". Happy editing! NewYorkActuary (talk) 12:29, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
09:02:50, 10 November 2016 review of draft by Ivana Petriskova edit
I cannot submit my article for review, when I press "Save changes" as described the article is still not a pending review. What are the other steps that I should take then?
Ivana Petriskova (talk) 09:02, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
- Hello, Ivana. The problem has been fixed and your submission is now awaiting review. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. NewYorkActuary (talk) 12:18, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

First I would like to thnak you for reviewing my Draft. The Article submission has been declined because 'This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability.' I would like to better understand the reason to make sure I can make the necessary changes. Would you be able to help me? Many thanks Giando23 (talk) 09:46, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
- Hello, Giando. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. The best source of information as to why your submission was declined is the reviewer who looked at it. You'll find the Talk page button for that reviewer at the top of your submission. Before posting here, I took a look at your draft and found that I agree with the reviewer. You have not demonstrated that the subject has received in-depth coverage from multiple reliable sources that are independent of the organisation. I also note that the subject already appears as a sub-section of the article on Ben Moore (curator). Some of your material (if referenced to a reliably source) might find a home in that other article. NewYorkActuary (talk) 12:42, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

Hey, I'm the Hungarian manager of this band, Firkin since years. We are actually the "crazy Irish band". You have had two plea against my article Firkin (band). The first was that I cannot call our flutist "crazy". Well I understand why, but how can I prove that this is not a humbling word for him, but this is his and the whole band's "image". The other was that my draft didn't have any references. Well, actually I wrote this article by my own. What kind of references do you mention? A band page or a Facebook page is adeuacy for you? Thank you for your help! Kind regards, Dala Dala~huwiki (talk) 15:44, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
I'm writing regarding my submission that was declined. I wanted to know what I should omit and what exactly the review found unacceptable to make sure that it isn't included in the rewrite. Is it okay to post a press articles section? Also, can we cite articles from science magazines?
Nyuiisdm (talk) 20:57, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
- User:Nyuiisdm - The usual place to start is with the comments of the reviewer, who said that the article consisted of a lot of advertising of the project. My first thought is that the first two paragraphs of the article are written in a sort of marketing buzz-speak rather than in simple sentences. My second thought is that the article is much too long and reads like a college catalog, describing every project and every project's principal investigator. I would suggest replacing the first two paragraphs with a straightforward description of what the project is. (I know that someone thinks that the buzz-speak is a straightforward description.) Then replace the long list of all of the projects with just the names of a few projects and just the names of any principal investigators who already have Wikipedia articles. That is my advice.
