Hi there, please refer the reason here -> 1: it's not a paid service, this is for the people in country like India where the Ambulance reaches in 1-2 hours and sometimes does not reach at all. The app is for the people who can request in case of emergency to the nearest person so that the person can help to get them to the hospital or coordinate the Ambulance. 2: It provides the way to notify the number of people about Missing Person/Absconded Criminal to get the help from the public to identify or potentially save the human trafficking 3: It provides the NGO module from where a use can share the leftover food to the people who care in need of that There are many more reasons, I would request you to visit https://www.helpyfinder.com/ once (site is not https yet and that's the reason I have not added in draft far now, team is working on that. This is just an initial draft submission and I'll be submitting more detail. Hope this is okay. Thanks Sezlon Technologies (talk) 04:59, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 07:56:47, 12 April 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Poetsnow edit


Need help to put reliable references that will be accepted by wikipedia.

Poetsnow (talk) 07:56, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Poetsnow Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about (in this case) a poet, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable creative professional. Brief mentions or the announcement of the publication of her works do not establish notability. 331dot (talk) 08:11, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My submission was rejected and I don't undersand why. I've based my entry in this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meter_Point_Administration_Number adding as much information as I could find. The most important thing in this case that can't be easily find (and I think is a good contribution to wikipedia) is the python code about the checksum calculation.

We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Every biographical claim an article makes that could potentially be challenged for any reason what-so-ever absolutely MUST be cited to a strong third-party source that corroborates it or, if no such sources can be found, removed wholesale. This is a hard requirement when writing about living/recently-departed people and is not negotiable. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 03:57, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I just tried to Improve Wikipedia articles Using a sandbox but by mistake I moved my sandbox article in to help talk for more editing (but the article deleted I got the wrong process in editing. please you help is highly appreciated Abdulla (talk) 12:01, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Abdulla2021: Hello and Welcome to the English Wikipedia. I am afraid that Draft:Sudan_Bookshop is all but ready for mainspace. The most eminent problem is that there are no sources given for the information given. Wikipedia prefers reliable, independent sources, in fact, that is what most of the future article should be based upon. The style of writing also needs fixing, amongst other things, Wikipedia almost always uses the third person. Victor Schmidt (talk) 13:23, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. My entry was declined and I am having a difficult time improving it. Here is the link and note I received. Any help is greatly appreciated and I thank you for your time.

I had a picture flagged for a copyright violation. I have been working with the source (MIT) but I guess I need to better understand how to communicate/document their permission to use their materials/photos.

The picture has been deleted and also, I cannot find the original message from the editor.

Thank you.

14:06:13, 12 April 2021 review of submission by AWESOMEDUDE0614 edit


I am requesting a re-review of the page for Devin Purcell. I was informed that he was not notable enough to warrant a wikipedia page but I as well as many others disagree. Devin Purcell has received international recognition for his music and charitable efforts, and is a verified artist on Spotify. I, and many others will maintain this page and add content frequently or as needed. Thank you for reconsidering and I am eager to hear back from your team.

AWESOMEDUDE0614 (talk) 14:06, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Being a verified artist on Spotify, confers zero notability, your draft has no independent sources. Theroadislong (talk) 14:34, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@AWESOMEDUDE0614: Adding on to what Theroadislong said, Wikipedia has set notability guidelines, which Devin Purcell is very far from passing. Has he been covered by news? No. Has he won an award? No. So, he is not notable. Noah 💬 17:26, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

14:46:08, 12 April 2021 review of submission by Simon Christophers edit

Hi I request assistance with my article (Draft:David_Taborn)

In summary it has been rejected by KylieTastic and moved to drafts by Jalen Folf - so thanks to you both for your time so far.

KylieTastic rejected on non notability. So as such I have read again the Stand-alone lists guideline and also the Notability (people) from the WP:BIO redirects and now seek further advice on improving the Basic criteria so I meet the notability benchmark.

many thanks, Simon Christophers

Hello, how do I submit Draft:Ilolo Izu to be up for review. Thank you

Naijaaguila (talk) 17:41, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Naijaaguila. It has been in the pool to be reviewed for about a month, as evidenced by the large yellowish "Review waiting, please be patient" box at the bottom of the draft. There is a severe backlog of submissions. At the present rate, it may take another 4-5 months for a reviewer to evaluate it. --Worldbruce (talk) 19:24, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

20:35:19, 12 April 2021 review of draft by Getdizzi edit


I am new to WikiPedia and I am trying to get my first article published. I have made all the requested changes and I can not seem to understand why the article is not passing the submission requirement. Can somebody please help me understand what it is that I need to do in order to complete this task?

In addition, the article has a praising/hagiographical tone throughout. We do not accept articles written to promote, praise, denigrate, slander, etc. a subject, and so the article needs to be rewritten to dispassionately summarise what the sources say. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 03:56, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your kind response. I understand why you cited the Seigenthaler biography, but I have made numerous references to articles, albums, movie production citations and magazine publishings to qualify the source of the claims. The article is written in a formal tone and just notes a great deal of accomplishments in a long career in Hollywood. I do not know how to reduce the claims that are all true and validated. Can you give me specific items that will help clear this article up and get it published. Thanks again in advance.

20:40:20, 12 April 2021 review of draft by YousafHassnain edit


Which references and source you need publish by other pages? If biography of a person is written in the books and not to be noted in other internet websites in that case what can we do by providing source and reference and also guide me on this platform I have multiple questions but for now I want guidness just on this issue that I can full fill my work. Thank you very much dear brother. YousafHassnain (talk) 20:40, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@YousafHassnain: you write in User:YousafHassnain/sandbox/Ghayas_Ahmad_Khan#References that your references are the two Facebook pages and "various books". Would you please share the information which books with us? Victor Schmidt (talk) 20:42, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
