I am trying to upload an article on Ikram Uddin Farooqui as he was a well known and awarded story writer of hindi and urdu of his time. Help me how to upload article so that it may be accepted by wikipedia. Regards !

- You will need to add references, to establish that he is notable. If you can't find any good English-language sources, Urdu ones will be acceptable. Maproom (talk) 20:16, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

editI have not been this frustrated in a long time. I am trying to create a page about the Aircraft Electronics Association. You continue to reject it without valid reasons. I have read all of your policies and complied with them. There is no reason why you are rejecting my page, yet my sister trade associations in the general aviation have nearly identical pages created at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Experimental_Aircraft_Association and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Business_Aviation_Association and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_Owners_and_Pilots_Association. Why are the following pages allowed and my identical page is being rejected? You are inconsistent in your judgement and being unreasonable. For example, look up National Business Aviation Association, the Experimental Aircraft Association and the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Associaiton. Please be very specific as to why you are choosing to reject my page, yet have no problem with any of these other pages. We are a notable organization, and the reason we are creating a page is because we have received numerous requests as to why we don't have a page on Wikipedia. Do not ask me to read your terms and conditions again. I have done that numerous times and complied with them. I am quickly getting to the point where our organization will give up on Wikipedia and not be a productive contributor. This is very frustrating and you do not have a quick and easy method of communication. Do not send crypted messages and simply communicate directly with me as to why are you rejecting our page. It is NOT an advertisement!!! It is not for promotional purposes!!! It is simply for reference as a notable organization!! Myoceantravel (talk) 15:32, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
- In your edit summary creating the article, and above saying "We are a notable organization", you refer to "we". Who is "we"? Wikipedia has a rule of one person, one account. The submission was declined not as promotional, although it clearly is promotional if being submitted by the organization itself, but as having inadequate sources to establish notability. Read the conflict of interest guideline. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:29, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
- Just to note that the article Aircraft Electronics Association created by the same user was speedy deleted from main space as promotional or advertising a few hours before the draft was created. MilborneOne (talk) 08:17, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

I'm trying to create an article on Jack Etienne, the founder of Cloud 9 esports organization, but I've been having trouble finding sources to reference. I could write an article from memory based on following the esports scene but I can't find many sources that have any reputability. Most things I can find are just interviews about the esports teams themselves without any info on the history or organizational side of the organization.
I'm trying to just make a short article summary similar to Hotshotgg or Andy Dinh, as they serve similar roles as founders of esports organizations.

- Hello Brian95777. Unfortunately, if there are no sources, there can be no article. Wikipedia is written purely based on existing published sources. If a person is notable (as I think Etienne is) but there hasn't been quite enough published on him yet, all you can do is wait for more to appear. Joe Roe (talk) 00:33, 27 September 2016 (UTC)

- Because of the way that you wrote, the content was not displayed. You wrote '2017-18 United states Television network schedule article needs to be created.'. You can create a draft article via Articles for Creation and submit it. See Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. We will only write about topics having to do with the future to the extent that there has been coverage in reliable sources. To that extent, you are welcome to contribute. You are more likely to get articles into Wikipedia by writing them and submitting them as drafts than simply by saying that they need to be created.
