Do you accepting non-english sources?

أبو السعد 2 Greetings. Sources in any languages are accepted. Pls note only independent, reliable sources would contribute to the notability requirement. Sources such as from major newspaper are good sources. Pop back here if you need further assistance. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 17:31, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I recently created the artical The Republc of Volpat, I just wanted to tell you that I am the creaator of the micronation and that most of the data came from me! Thank You!

Mlawsn (talk) 11:22, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mlawsn. Wikipedia articles must be based on information published in reliable sources, not on the personal knowledge of its editors. See verifiability. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:48, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

What changes would you advise making? This article is not intended as "advertisement", simply an interesting record for an individual already referenced on two Wikipedia pages ('Greatest Britons' & 'Claire Goose'). Louisgm (talk) 13:26, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Louisgm. Many people are mentioned somewhere in Wikipedia, but are not suitable subjects for stand alone encyclopedia articles, so that's not a good reason to create this draft. I advise moving on to a different topic (we have nearly 6 million to choose from). If you pursue this one, look for more sources like the Evening Standard article, ones that go into some depth about Goose with a minimum of him talking about himself. Try scholarly books, academic journals, The Times, The Financial Times, the BBC, The New York Times, and the like. Better sources can sometimes help remedy tone problems, although your own writing experience - academic, journalistic, public relations, etc. - also plays a role. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:43, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, how do you make text blue where people can click it and go to another Wikipedia site of that? Fx. If i put Los Angeles, how can i make the text a link where people can click it and go to a Wikipedia page about Los Angeles?


TobiasStage Good day. This is call lingking. Place double brackets on the left and the right sides of "Los Angeles" - see here in source editing move Los Angeles. Check out how to wikify here - Help:Wikitext. You can ask any questing regarding "editing" at WP:Teahouse if you need help. Cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 17:42, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

He is a noble person in society!A Highly regarded among is Hmong people also American society, worthy to be documented into history.

Yangkou (talk) 17:20, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yangkou. The draft fails to demonstrate that he is notable (suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia). --Worldbruce (talk) 18:05, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Yangkou: If you are the subject in question, please review WP:AUTOBIO. JTP (talk • contribs) 20:00, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why was my new micronation artical declined?


Mlawsn (talk) 18:30, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Mlawsn: It needs significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. Micronations can easily be WP:MADEUP; simply existing does not prove notability. JTP (talk • contribs) 19:56, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Because I have land for this new Micronation, why do other micronation have pages and I can't? Here is other micros for example! http://www.molossia.org/ Mlawsn (talk) 21:08, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I made another attempt at editing this page, removing what might be considered buzzwords. I'd appreciate it if this can be reviewed again and considered. I disagree with the notability reasoning for rejecting the page, as they are well-known in their industry and many similar companies have pages on Wikipedia.

Paul.jonah.paul (talk) 23:00, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Paul.jonah.paul. The draft treats Shift4 Payments as if it's an extension of Harbortouch. Wikipedia favors large, comprehensive articles, which suggests it would be best to cover Shift4 Payments and Harbortouch in a single article, much as the British Oliver Typewriter Company is covered within Oliver Typewriter Company. In that case Draft:Shift4 Payments should be abandoned, and changes should be made (or, if you have a conflict of interest, proposed) to Harbortouch. For more advice on the best way to handle parents, subsidiaries, shells, holding companies, etc., reach out to Wikipedia:WikiProject Companies. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:49, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
