09:17:37, 19 December 2018 review of draft by Zulrah edit


This draft got declined second time with same two reasons: being based only on newspaper articles and not being notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Neither of those reasons are actually valid for declining this article, atleast now when I added new sources. This article is not based only on news reports. It has also other sources than just newspaper articles. Iltalehti was only newspaper source that article had. One of the 3 sources was FURORA (which is finnish organization for UFO-research and one of them was Yle, which is large media, that has TV, Radio, Internet features, it is not a newspaper. Yle is actually Finland's national public broadcasting company. Atleast two books and UFO documentary movies tell about this incident. I now added to my article new sources: one book and two documentary movies. And about not being notable enough for Wikipedia, this incident is only UFO-incident to be officially acknowledged by Finnish Air Force and one of the best officially verified UFO-cases in the world. It can be compared to Condon Report's Case 2 in Greenwich, which was one of the best cases in whole research to give real evidence about UFOs. Condon Report said in its conclusion for that atleast one real UFO was probably reported. That research called Condon Report was made by The Condon Committee, funded by the United States Airforce to have a scientific research on UFOs. This case being similar to this Case 2 and being one of the best cases to give real evidence for UFOs, and being also known elsewhere than Finland, and being mentioned also in books and movies and several publications, means that this article is in fact notable enough for being in Wikipedia. Finnish Air Force sighting can be already found in finnish Wikipedia as Porin seitsemän ilmapalloa and should be accepted also for english Wikipedia.

09:30:37, 19 December 2018 review of draft by Thedavidshow edit


The reviewer maintains that the subject of the article I've written, Draft:Richard Marshall (barber), is not notable... and though he is mentioned several times in primary and secondary sources such as The Guardian, the Telegraph, and several London and Travel sites, this mention is only a passing mention and that "Maybe the business is notable (no guarantees) but the owner is not". As there is only one owner of the business, and every reference deals with how Richard Marshall founded that business, my question is how Richard Marshall could not be notable if Pall Mall Barbers is notable?

My subject is also a living person and the article is the biography of a living person with at least nine independent sources. I seem to remember biographies of living persons being a protected class. Is this no longer the case?

Thedavidshow (talk) 09:30, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The business was founded in 1896 so he did not found it. I declined the page so I'll let others weigh in. Legacypac (talk) 09:33, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
On the contrary... The Pall Mall Toilet Salon at Trafalgar square was founded in 1896. The Pall Mall Barbers chain of male grooming shops was founded in 2005 by Richard Marshall. As the founder, and sole owner, of this international chain of barbershops I would have to maintain that any source that refers directly to "Pall Mall Barbers" must also be making reference to Richard Marshall. There are currently nine such primary and secondary references, many of which refer to Richard Marshall and his founding of that business by name, and I have many more. See also Ray Kroc, Colonel Sanders, and Russell Solomon. Thedavidshow (talk) 11:17, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, It has been more than 2 weeks since Draft:Shiva Texyarn Limited was not reviewed. I would like to know how long it would take to review any draft? Thanks. 2405:204:2187:29DA:BF85:BF3E:214C:613E (talk) 10:51, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@2405:204:2187:29DA:BF85:BF3E:214C:613E: LegacyPac has accepted your draft into an article. Usually, at the moment, it takes up to 4 weeks, so please don't ask before that point.

20:06:14, 19 December 2018 review of submission by ColeraineGS edit


Hello

I work for a school in Northern Ireland called Coleraine Grammar School. The school was created in 2015 by the amalgamation of two schools called Coleraine Academical Insitution and Coleraine High School. There are wikipedia articles about these 2 schools and I have created a short Wikipedia article on the new school.

I am aware that google's search engine uses information from wikipedia on its searches but it is linking to the old pages rather than the new page. Would somebody be able to rectify that for me please?

This is the wikipedia that google links to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coleraine_Academical_Institution

but I want it to link to this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coleraine_Grammar_School

If I can get the change made then I will put up more information on it.

Hope you can help.

Dave.

Francis roxas (talk) 21:59, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So I was told to remove hyperlinks for the draft page of the Complex Wavelet SSIM that I worked on yesterday. I looked up what a hyperlink was here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperlink and I just wanted to get feedback on what constitutes as a hyperlink. I also wanted to know if I removed all of them. For instance, do references count as hyperlinks, do the Wikipedia pages linked via the "[[ ]]" count as hyperlinks, or do only links to external sites count as hyperlinks?

This is my first article. I did the whole article in the sandbox under my user name and then sent it for review. When the article was accepted, it was (appropriately) renamed "Nils Christensen (aviator)" but it is showing as a redirect from my user sandbox. How do I make the Nils Christensen article stand alone, and remove the link to my user sandbox?

Hello, use this link and just remove all text in the sandbox. JTP (talk • contribs) 22:34, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
