04:30:06, 10 August 2017 review of submission by Dipshikha Sinha edit
I have received a message saying that this particular submission includes copyrighted content which is why it cannot be accepted by Wikipedia. I, however, had cited the quotations used in the draft. Does that mean that quotations are not allowed on Wikipedia pages? Kindly provide me with some assistance since this is my very first attempt at creating an article on Wikipedia. Thank you.

- @Dipshikha Sinha: Hello, Dipshikha. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. I don't see any serious copyright issues, but I must confess that I didn't look very closely. Instead, I declined to accept your draft for publication simply because the material here could easily fit into the existing article on subaltern studies and I don't see any reason why it should be split off into a separate article. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. NewYorkActuary (talk) 19:10, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

I have been told that my article doesn't sound neutral. I know I have a problem generally with over-writing could someone please help me 'tone this down' or cut out bits which aren't appropriate? Many thanks. ECURBEC (talk) 09:54, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
- @ECURBEC: Hello, ECURBEC. Our apologies for the great delay in response. Before posting here, I took a close look at your draft. I've declined to accept it for publication. I also did some copy editing and added comments that I hope will be helpful. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:40, 14 August 2017 (UTC)

This page was rejected on the grounds that it already exists, but there is no entry for Developmental Language Disorder. I gather that if you type this term into Wikipedia you get redirected to Specific Language Impairment. I have been working with Wikipedia editor Janice Boynton, and we had some discussion about whether it might be feasible to just edit the page for the related term 'Specific Language Impairment (SLI)' - which I did a lot of work on some years ago. The situation is that there has been a big multinational, multidisciplinary exercise to reach agreement on terminology over the past 2 yr (the CATALISE project), resulting in two peer-reviewed publications, and the term Developmental Language Disorder was recommended. Although there is substantial overlap with SLI, they are not the same. I originally tried to just edit the SLI entry, and it was hopeless - I had to keep sidetracking to explain how DLD and SLI definitions differed. DLD has been accepted as the preferred term by the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists in the UK, and their similar oganisations in Canada and Australia. It will be the term used in the World Health Organisation (WHO) classificaiton which is the International Classification of Diseases - 11 (ICD-11). I think if you read the draft entry on DLD you will find it is comprehensive, scholarly and up to date. I wrote it in collaboration with a number of experts on this topic. There will be increasing searches for this term after the publication of the main paper from the CATALISE study on Sept 22nd, and we had hoped that we could have a good Wikipedia page up and running at that time. I think we need pages for both SLI and DLD, cross-referencing one another, and hope that this could be reconsidered, given the special situation of a formal exercise in achieving consensus on terminology that has taken place.

I am submitting two drafts. One page, Wael_K._Barsoum, automatically asked if I wanted to submit. The second one, Steven_D._Wexner, didn't have the submit option pop-up. I am not sure how to do it. Thank you.

- Hi Hilda S Mitrani. I've submitted Draft:Steven D. Wexner on your behalf. With the current backlog, reviews are taking about a month. You may continue improving the drafts while you wait, or check out other ways to help at Wikipedia:Community portal. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:51, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hello Worldbruce. Thanks so much! I will fix the citations and then continue editing pages for which I have some knowledge. Have a great day! Hilda S Mitrani
- @Hilda S Mitrani: Hello again, Hilda. I noticed that both of your current submissions are about physicians at the Cleveland Clinic in Florida. I also saw an Internet posting about a Mitrani Marketing that lists the Cleveland Clinic as a client. Are you getting paid to write these articles? And was the same true for Carol Marbin Miller? If yes for any of them, then the provisions of WP:PAID apply and, if you haven't already done so, I encourage you to read it. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask.

- @NewYorkActuary: Hello, NewYorkActuary. I only work on Wikipedia for people that I feel deserve a page and don't have representation, such as these two doctors that I use personally. I do other work for Cleveland Clinic Florida, and have consulted for many healthcare organizations in South Florida. I didn't get paid to do the page for Carol Marbin Miller, either. She was my neighbor for many years. As you can see, Carol is notable for her work to represent children. I do understand the Conflict of Interest issues and will adhere to them. As you can see, I am also edit on other pages and try to contribute to other Wikipedia pages as part of the community. Thank you for asking about my motivation!

13:55:44, 10 August 2017 review of submission by Sheelalipisahana1997 edit
I submitted an article for review more than two weeks ago. I am aware that the reviewing process may take some more time, but I'm a little concerned as to whether it will get reviewed. Is there a way for me to find out if it is in the process? Sheelalipisahana1997 (talk) 13:55, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hi Sheelalipisahana1997. Draft:The Face of the Future: Biometric Surveillance and Progress is in the pool to be reviewed. About 400 drafts have been waiting longer, so it will probably be another two weeks before a volunteer reaches it. You may continue improving it while you wait, or check out other ways to help at Wikipedia:Community portal. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:57, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

how did my article didn't know get approved for the wiki page? what was exactly wrong with the article ned to know more information
LaillaAlien (talk) 21:38, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
- Hi LaillaAlien. Wikipedia articles cover notable topics—those that have gained significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time, as evidenced by independent, reliable, published sources. The draft cites no such sources, possibly because none exist. Thus the topic does not appear suitable for Wikipedia. This is a common problem with autobiographies, and one of the reasons they are not welcome here. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:28, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
