edit

This profile has more notibility than others on the main page (i.e. Nick R. Martin) however it is not approved. His research has been cited on various publications. He is a current candidate for School Board in Denver, Colorado and continues his community work in a high profile manner. The draft has been updated regularly. 2601:282:503:8420:3817:739C:BCD4:903C (talk) 00:10, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia doesn't have "profiles", it has articles. It's unclear what this subject is supposed to be notable for. For being a felon? For being a talent manager? For being a presidential candidate that most people have never heard of? Wikipedia isn't a social media outlet and we're not here to make internet celebrities out of people. See our General Notability Guidelines. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 00:31, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Munyal 12: You didn't ask a question, but maybe that's a moot point, since the draft you created was rejected and will not be considered further. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:38, 19 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am trying to see if there are other changes I need to make to my latest revison on this post about Simon Rogers. The earlier edits suggested that there needed to be more documentation of Rogers' contributions, which I added.

Hello. This is my first time I edit because I’m in hospital for all-round blood test and staying in hospital is scared to be honest. My mum was having cancer twice and hospital afraid me a lot. She passed two years ago but not because of Breast cancer but depression to suicide. It’s 5am in Hong Kong and I really can’t sleep I need something to distract not worry about the test.. I’m trying to edit the file of celebrity Jackson Wang and saw his reference of the famous I-magazine fashion face awards are not having a page. Jackson placed as 2nd in 2016 and 2017 I want to add a new page introduce more about the awards. It’s over 1m search in google but the award didn’t have a wiki page.

@Fashionrobot: A few notes:
@Fashionrobot: Apparently you didn't get the memo, but you're not allowed to take content from other sources and use it freely. Just like how you're not supposed to copy MP3s or break into a neighbor's home and take their television. The article has been deleted as a copyright violation.

bradv declined my submission based on lack of significant coverage of Hughes in my sources. I added a few additional sources and, to my eye, the sourcing seems similar to articles on designers of similar stature like Jane Greenwood and Paul Tazewell. I have a COI (Allen was a teacher), but, as he is the only African American to be nominated for a Tony Award for Lighting Design, I do think he meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines.

Brucehs, where's the source for "only African American to be nominated for a Tony Award for Lighting Design"? – bradv🍁 00:45, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
bradv I'm going by Wikipedia's list. Is that not considered a reliable source? Bruce (talk) 00:53, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Brucehs: I'll jump in to answer this: Unfortunately, no, Wikipedia is not considered a reliable source, because it is user-generated, like IMDb, and blogs and other such entities. Regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:00, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Cyphoidbomb: Ok, I'll remove that from the draft. However, Hughes is still a four time Tony nominee, which seems to meet criteria 1 of WP:ANYBIO (The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times). Bruce (talk)
