01:16:04, 20 November 2020 review of draft by 2604:2000:E010:1100:B0BD:8A75:6DFB:22C8 edit


Hi. I think the top of this page, with some language in red, indicates a problem. But I do not understand what it is or how to fix it. Does anyone else? Thanks.--2604:2000:E010:1100:B0BD:8A75:6DFB:22C8 (talk) 01:16, 20 November 2020 (UTC) 2604:2000:E010:1100:B0BD:8A75:6DFB:22C8 (talk) 01:16, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've done my best to fix it in these edits. I've deleted the scripting, and have restored the declined notices that went missing. I have also deleted the duplicate request for review. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:33, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. The comments rejected an article on the subject appear to be rejecting someone else's prior submissions (I can't see). But this one is notable for the reason given by me now. I'm not sure if having the prior rejections makes that all clear, but thank you for letting me see what they said and their dates. 2604:2000:E010:1100:B0BD:8A75:6DFB:22C8 (talk) 03:12, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

09:24:23, 20 November 2020 review of submission by Cesar.Serrano.Montero edit

Hello, I received the feedback that "This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article". I don't want to argue this decision, of course. Since it's my first article, my target is to understand the reasons in detail to improve the page and resubmit the draft for review.

I checked some published Wikipedia articles for similar artists and tried to include the same type of references as they had. I included many links to official world-known references, such as rankings for Eurovision Song Contest: this artist was a finalist multiple times. There are also well-known newspapers and other articles referenced that tell her story. Some references are towards official lists where her music is publically available. She is an international artist, and therefore references were provided from a well-diversified source. Maybe even too many? should I only keep the topmost relevant ones?

I'd really appreciate it if one of you could please take the time to give me feedback on how I should change this draft so that it passes the bar. If easier, I believe that the article has enough information to create an approved Wikipedia article. Could maybe someone help me by commenting it or editing it in a way that could be approved?

I was surprised this artist wasn't in Wikipedia already, which is why I decided to create the article myself. It's clear that it's my first one and that I'm not an expert, but I hope we can accomplish this goal for this well-known artist.

Thank you very much for your help and your support, César

Cesar.Serrano.Montero It is not usually a good argument to cite other similar articles as reasons for your article to exist, or to pattern it after. It could be that those other articles are inappropriate or have inappropriate content as well. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible to get inappropriate content by us, sometimes for years. We can only address what we know about.
Your draft must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the (in this case) musician, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable musician. The sources you have seem to be citing specific points, but do not have significant, in depth coverage of this person. I'm also not clear on what aspect of the notability criteria apply to this musician. 331dot (talk) 10:25, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

12:05:41, 20 November 2020 review of draft by CHIEP edit


On August 18, I created a draft for the Belgian composer Guy Van Nueten (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Guy_Van_Nueten). I submitted his article (my first one ever) for review, but on the top of the page it says "Draft article not currently submitted for review." Therefore, it's unclear to me if this article is now under review or not (or did I do something wrong?). Thank you for any help you can provide. CHIEP (talk) 12:05, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

12:36:20, 20 November 2020 review of draft by 2400:ADC1:16C:2200:98F1:3410:42B4:62D0 edit


I submitted me now profile and it says notability issue. Then I asked for help from different people and tried to publish it but it's not working out and I don't know what is the issue. I left an appeal and it says DENIED "Using multiple accounts" I didn't know that would be a problem. Anyway now I want to fix all of this. My friend's wiki was published at the same time and mine is not even though we are business partners and most of our info is the same.

How I can delete my account and create a new one and publish my profile again from scrath.

Thank you

Accounts cannot be deleted; if you have used more than one account, simply abandon the accounts you will stop using. By posting here while logged out, you are evading your block. You need to log in to your account and request unblock per the instructions on your use talk page. Wikipedia does not have "profiles", it has articles. A "wiki" is a type of website of which Wikipedia is one, not a single article on the website. 331dot (talk) 12:54, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
For clarity, the draft was created by someone who is no longer welcome to edit at Wikipedia. So if you were behind Archinerd45, you are not welcome to edit here. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:37, 20 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

14:52:20, 20 November 2020 review of draft by Randomhero77 edit


Hello, so my first submission was declined due to lack of references that show significant coverage. I have now added additional refences from international sources such as Swedish newspapers Dagens Industri and Svenska Dagbladet and also stock exchange related sources.

I have also removed some of the trivial sources. However, could someone please enlighten me whether I need to remove all industry-specific (gambling) sources, or it's fine to leave them even if they are not notable?

If someone has time to provide feedback then it would be much appreciated. I haven't resubmitted the draft yet.

(COI involved)

Thanks
