Can you please help in pruning this profile so that it satisfies the Wikipedia submission rules? I assure you that gourish singla is a man of eminence.

Hi Jaspreet007. If everything that is unacceptable were pruned, there would be nothing left. The topic is not notable, so no amount of editing will make it acceptable. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:06, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The draft is currently awaiting review, please be patient. The backlog is currently about 4 months. Jannik Schwaß (talk) 19:33, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

08:26:59, 10 June 2019 review of submission by MoudgilAman edit


Need advise on why the article could not pass wikipedia's requirements when its not advocating/ promoting any company but merely talking about an elevator company which is very visible in Delhi and over 10 cities in India. Below are some of the hyperlinks of newspapers & journals who have published on the company for your reference please:

Requesting tips on how i can publish basic information about this company? MoudgilAman (talk) 08:26, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MoudgilAman. The sources you've offered up are a trade publication and four variations on a press release. None of those do anything to establish notability (suitability for a stand alone encyclopedia article). --Worldbruce (talk) 15:18, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

08:45:40, 10 June 2019 review of submission by Anki 84 edit


I need more information on this matter. The academy is based in Dubai and I would like to make the academy information available on wikipedia. Anki 84 (talk) 08:45, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Anki 84. None of the cited sources contain significant coverage of the academy, other than perhaps Diario de Navarra, which I haven't evaluated because it is behind a paywall. If it contains in-depth coverage, the draft would need at least two additional independent, reliable, secondary sources that satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:31, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article is under review for a long time edit

09:07:51, 10 June 2019 review of draft by Sagarshah28 edit


Hi team, My article is under review since 9th April. How can I bring this under the notice of reviewers community? Sagar Shah 09:07, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi Sagarshah28. The draft is not yet "under review". It has been in the pool to be reviewed since 19 March. More than 425 drafts have been waiting for review longer than this one. The current backlog is approaching 4 months. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:56, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

10:45:03, 10 June 2019 review of draft by Jeff Goodwin2 edit


Jeff Goodwin2 (talk) 10:45, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I wrote an article for a popular Seattle author who reps our queer community well, but you guy's keep rejecting it because you said it's her... but it's me. So, Why?

Hi Jeff Goodwin2. If you think it was declined becuase it's an autobiography, you are mistaken. It keeps getting declined because it's awful. It makes many of the mistakes commonly made with autobiographies, so whether it literally is one or not, I strongly recommend studying that guideline.
It's identical to User:Tiffany Desiree/sandbox, which raises all sorts of troubling questions about whether you are in compliance with Wikipedia's account policies, conflict of interst policies, and terms of use regarding paid editing. I've left more information about these issues on your talk page. Once you've dealt with them, you can return to the question of whether anything can be done to salvage the draft. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:46, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
(Personal attack removed) thanks for your bias feedback. It's not awful. Consider learning basic grammar with your run on sentences and 3rd grade diction. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeff Goodwin2 (talk • contribs) 15:19, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Also, you said, "conflict of interst." It's spelled interest. Am I seriously receiving advice from you about something being "awful?" What a joke.

14:05:55, 10 June 2019 review of submission by Butterflygirl1996 edit


Just wondering why the page is "contrary to the purpose of wikipedia". No explanation was given so I was wondering what can be done to improve the page. Butterflygirl1996 (talk) 14:05, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Butterflygirl1996. See the reviewer's comment below the big pink box on the draft. Wikipedia already has an article on the subject, Brooke Lynn Hytes, so any development should take place there, not in a draft space parallel. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:14, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

17:04:09, 10 June 2019 review of submission by ClevelandDante edit


Can someone please explain to me how we need to restructure the verbiage, or how we can successfully create a page for this Cleveland Chef?

ClevelandDante (talk) 17:04, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ClevelandDante. Rejection of the draft is meant to be final, to convey that the subject is not notable (not suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia), so no amount of editing will make the topic acceptable.
Please clarify what you mean by "we". The policy on Wikipedia is "one user—one account". Usernames should not be shared by multiple individuals.
Skimming the draft, I see that it cites The Washington Post and The New York Times. That would usually be a good sign, but neither article verifies the statements where cited, or mentions Boccuzzi. This suggests that you may not understand the point of citing sources. The WPO piece is an independent, reliable, secondary source containing significant coverage of Troy Dupuy. Try to find three similarly high quality sources about Boccuzzi. If you can't, then the reviewer was correct, and the topic is hopeless. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:50, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 17:08:34, 10 June 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Sayeyabandeh2019 edit


Hello, I am trying to create a Wiki page for someone who has asked me to set it up for them. The name of the page/person is "Saye Yabandeh" she is a reputable award-winning actress, global humanitarian and the Global Ambassador to the Global Citizens Foundation. I am trying to figure out the best way to have her biographical information and lists of awards/film/tv projects presented in a Wikipedia page.

I started by creating an account and submitting an article for creation. It was quickly denied saying that it was advertising materials or something of that sort, but the only information that was initially submitted was Saye Yabandeh's biography with listed resources.

If there is a different way that I need to go about having the page set up, please advise. Her requests have continued to be rejected and we can't seem to figure out how to get a page set up properly.

Sayeyabandeh2019 (talk) 17:08, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sayeyabandeh2019. Draft:Saye Yabandeh was created by ZA Saye, submitted by an IP editor in February 2015, and declined for failing to show notability. It was resurrected by Rose2gonow1 in 2018, when it was declined for failing to show notability and later for reading like an advertisement. Most recently, your version was speedily deleted for being unambiguous promotion. Even the existence of a page about her, if she doesn't qualify for inclusion, could be seen as promotional.
The reviewers and deleting admins have been different each time. Consensus seems to be that she is not a suitable topic for an encyclopedia article at this time. Searching Google books returns nothing relevant, and Google news return no independent, reliable, secondary sources deeper than a passing mention, so I'm inclined to agree. The best thing to do is not to try to write an encyclopedia article about someone who has asked you to do so. If her achievements are genuinely notable, or become so in the future, a neutral volunteer will undoubtedly create an article about her. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:25, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

19:05:34, 10 June 2019 review of submission by Pumpkinhead11 edit


Pumpkinhead11 (talk) 19:05, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article that I submitted for review was declined because it doesn't seem like the subject is worthy of an encyclopedia entry, but the reason I'm trying to publish it is because he's about to announce his candidacy for Governor of New Hampshire. As he hasn't technically announced officially yet, there is no coverage on this, but we wanted to have the start of the article up so that through the soft announcements people can still find info on him.

Thank you.

@Pumpkinshead11: - politicians have very strict notability requirements. High levels of coverage aren't/wouldn't be sufficient - to demonstrate political notability he'd have to actually win the election. He may warrant an article through his book, if it's received multiple reliable reviews. Take a look at WP:NAUTHOR for details. Nosebagbear (talk) 19:45, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
An additional key note, is that as a biography of a living person, the references need to be inline, not general - that is, they need to support specific details (the little blue numbers) rather than just being a list of URLs at the end. referencing for beginners explains how. Please remember that you'll need multiple, reliable, in-depth & (critically) independent) review sources for the book. Nosebagbear (talk) 19:48, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

19:50:07, 10 June 2019 review of submission by Gingersnap1996 edit


I am requesting a re-review because I do not understand why the page is not notable enough for inclusion. If there is a reason why the page is not notable enough, please explain why. Thanks! If it's an issue with sources please say so! Gingersnap1996 (talk) 19:50, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Lvbgar (talk) 20:49, 10 June 2019 (UTC) I submitted this draft about 12 hours ago, but I cannot find it anywhere on the Articles for submission page. I'm wondering if I have done something wrong. Thanks.[reply]

@Lvbgar: Your draft has not yet been submitted please click the large blue button that says "Submit". Theroadislong (talk) 21:30, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

20:49:42, 10 June 2019 review of draft by Tuuzi edit


I noticed Dr. Jindal was listed on "Outstanding Americans by Choice" award page and should be on the history of Guyana page (maybe, debatable because he just setup the first kidney transplant program there), and Fulbright Scholar distinguished chair page. Can I edit the links on these pages, or do I have to wait for it to be published? Thank you in advance for any help. Tuuzi (talk) 20:49, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]


Tuuzi (talk) 20:49, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tuuzi. Articles may not link to drafts. If and when the draft is published, then you may edit the links, but do not do so before. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:31, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
