how do i insert an infobox on the top right of my article? JacobBul (talk) 05:27, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hello, Jacob. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. I'm not sure that we have an infobox that is appropriate for the subject of your submission. The closest I can find is {{Infobox organization}}. If you think that this might be useful, the instructions at the linked page will provide guidance on how to add it to your draft. I hope this response has been helpful. NewYorkActuary (talk) 06:26, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Hi, I'm having trouble meeting the criteria expected to submit this Wiki page particularly finding reliable sources. I have searched high and low for anything on subject. Because she had a career in the 1990's at the beginning stages of the internet there doesn't seem to be a lot that I can find that classes as a "reliable source". I can only find discography websites with her name mentioned in the credits for her vocal contribution and proof of her own releases. I also found articles in Billboard magazines showing her chart success in Japan and other achievements when she was signed to her label (Which i thought might have got me over the line as a reliable source). There is another Lisa Maxwell (Musician) who has a page up in Wiki but with all due respect she doesn't seem to be as notable as the Lisa Maxwell (Singer, Songwriter) that I'm writing about and yet the other Lisa's page has been approved, with flimsy sources at best! Quite frustrating to be honest. Anyway, I'm new to wiki and it's rules so if anyone can help that would be very much appreciated. Thanks Jammin75 (talk) 05:41, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

- Hello, Jammin. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. Creating an article from scratch can indeed be a daunting task, especially if you're just learning the "Wiki ropes". When looking at your submission, I see three big problems. First, much of the biographical detail is unsourced. This is unacceptable, especially for a biography of a living person. You will stand a better chance of getting your draft accepted for publication if you simply remove unsourced biographical details, rather than trying to justify its inclusion based on your own personal knowledge. As for the second problem, Discogs.com is a great resource for finding information, but it is a user-generated website and, thus, not acceptable for sourcing content in the article. And removing the Discogs-sourced content will reduce the size of the article even further. But, it still can be publishable, even if only in "stub" form, so long as the subject can be shown to meet any of the criteria set forth in WP:MUSICBIO. And that's where the third problem comes in. An artist who has charted multiple times on a major national chart will likely be deemed to have enough "notability" to justify an article, but your draft appears to make this claim on the basis of appearances on the J-Wave "Tokio Hot 100". However, even though this chart is published (as an advertisement) in Billboard, it is not the same as the Billboard-Japan Hot 100 and I don't think that the J-Wave chart is accepted here as a major national chart. (For more detail on this point, see WP:CHART.) So, I see three big problems, only two of which can be solved by pruning the article. The third, satisfying WP:MUSICBIO, seems to be the one that you should be working on. I hope this response has been helpful. NewYorkActuary (talk) 07:10, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Thanks NewYorkActuary for the feedback and advice, appreciate it. I will prune article and keep working on it and hopefully it will be accepted. Cheers Jammin75 (talk) 00:19, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

I would like the Party of Communists USA page to be published. The Wikipedia page is neutral and brief. Dragunsky1922 (talk) 06:02, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hello, Dragunsky. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. Although your draft is neutral and brief, it also is sourced only to the organisation itself. In order to be accepted for publication, you will need to demonstrate that it has received in-depth coverage from reliable sources that are independent of the organisation. I hope this response has been helpful. NewYorkActuary (talk) 06:20, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
12AM edit: There are references from around the world, even news sources, such as Sputnik News. Is Sputnik not recognized by Wikipedia user review board? what gives?

Need a second user to approve my article please!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Party_of_Communists_USA
The current user reviewing this article has denied the article 3 times.
Help please!! The article meets all standards!
Thank you
Dragunsky1922 (talk) 08:52, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hello again, Dragunsky. Although you've added some sources, none of them provide an in-depth discussion of the subject by reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Without this, it is unlikely that your draft will be accepted for publication. NewYorkActuary (talk) 18:19, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi, I am trying to check my articale https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Golan789/sandbox so there will be no copyright violations, how can i do that? thank you
Golan789 (talk) 09:11, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- I checked myself; there is a 77.2% confidence that your article is plagiarized from a Neaman.org page. This link compares the two. I hope I helped! JTP (talk • contribs) 15:33, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Why does this article, which has been accepted, not appear on a Google, Wikipedia search? Dick Whittington (talk) 11:28, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Dick Whittington (talk) 11:28, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hello, Dick. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. The article will not be indexable by search engines until after it has been reviewed by the New Page Patrol. I understand that they have a bit of a backlog there, but I don't know how long it is. NewYorkActuary (talk) 15:33, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

- Harsha Fan (talk · contribs)
Page created on one of the tellyactors is misprinted. Her real name is Harsha Khandeparkar, I had accidentally named it has "Khanderparkar". How do I correct it?
Harsha Khandeparkar (talk) 11:50, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Hello, Harsha. I've put in a request at WP:Requested moves/Technical requests#Uncontroversial technical requests. I expect that the change will be made within a few hours. On a different note, I see that, although your user name is "Harsha Fan", your signature says "Harsha Khandeparkar". Are you Ms. Khandeparkar? If so, you must declare a conflict of interest with respect to the articles about you and your television show (and see the blue-link for information on how to do so). If you are not Ms. Khandeparkar, you should not be impersonating this person by using her name as your signature. NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:00, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
13:27:18, 23 February 2017 review of submission by Mgenzac edit
Once again thank you for your insight. I have added two more references that display the controversiality of the subject's research article which is only relevant in the time period it was written. Addition of the C. Wong article was only to establish point of reference, for the reader, as to the procedures that were accepted as standard of care in 1943, not to specifically state my subject's name. As far as his career, the research article is the most documented portion of it, but the career as a whole was notable compared to other physicians at that time and now. Thanks again for your comments, they are encouraging me to find more citations. --Mgenzac (talk) 13:27, 23 February 2017 (UTC) I would also like to address the concerns about my references that were left in the comments on my page. The Fleming reference actually does mention specifically the total control over labor and delivery afforded by the technique of spinal anesthesia, and mentions the subject by name. While she as a midwife believes this to be medicalization of the process, it is important because many things can go awry during childbirth. Establishing a modem of control is essential and necessary. The subject's research article was published separately by at least 3 major medical journals of that year and was commented on in yet another, by three other physicians. The timing (1943) of the subject's article is what renders it both controversial and pertinent. Thank you again for your input.--Mgenzac (talk) 16:54, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

- Hello again, Mgenzac. Our apologies for the great delay in response. Later today, I'll leave some comments on the Talk page of your draft (and I'll notify you when I do that). In the meantime, comments from other reviewers would be very welcome. NewYorkActuary (talk) 23:15, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
