00:05, 30 August 2023 review of submission by Marcosfv2020

edit

Dear Wikipedia Admin,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request your assistance in reviewing and providing guidance on a Wikipedia page I have created for Filevine, a legal tech software company. As a dedicated Wikipedia editor and administrator, your expertise would be immensely valuable in ensuring that the page adheres to Wikipedia's high standards.

I have put considerable effort into crafting a comprehensive and accurate article about Filevine, drawing inspiration from similar pages for software companies like CLIO. Given the similarity in nature and scope between Filevine and CLIO, I believed that a Wikipedia page for Filevine would also be compliant.

To bolster the credibility of the article and its alignment with Wikipedia's content guidelines, I have tagged the article with several relevant WikiProject tags, including:

WikiProject Companies WikiProject Computing WikiProject Technology WikiProject Software These tags were added with the intention of providing a solid framework for the article's context and structure, in line with Wikipedia's standards.

However, before proceeding further, I would greatly appreciate your expertise in reviewing the article to ensure that it meets Wikipedia's criteria for notability, neutrality, and verifiability. Your insights and guidance would help ensure the accuracy and compliance of the article.

I understand the importance of maintaining the quality and integrity of Wikipedia's content, and I am committed to making any necessary edits or adjustments to align with the community's expectations.

If you have the time and willingness to assist, I would be very grateful. Your expertise and feedback would be a tremendous asset in contributing to the reliability of the information presented.

Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to your response and appreciate your commitment to maintaining the excellence of Wikipedia's content.

Best regards, Marcosfv2020 (talk) 00:05, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Marcosfv2020: the draft has been resubmitted and is awaiting review, please be patient. That said, I did have a quick scan of the sources, and found nothing that would amount to WP:GNG notability, as they all seem to be just routine business reporting and primary sources. Looks like you only added one source, and a pretty useless one, since the last decline. I'd say you either need to improve your sources significantly, or expect this to be declined again. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:05, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Marcosfv2020 Be aware of other stuff exists. It could be that the other articles you used as a reference are also problematic and you would be unaware of this. As this is a volunteer project, it is possible for inappropriate content to get by us and be unaddressed for years. We can only deal with what we know about. If you want to use other articles as a model or example, use those classified as good articles, which have been vetted by the community. 331dot (talk) 19:59, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to request that the draft biography I have written in Bahasa Indonesia be submitted to the Indonesian version of Wikipedia. Can you assist me in resubmitting it to Wikipedia Indonesia?

Kind regards 

Vianzo (talk) 02:54, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Vianzo: sorry, no. Each language version is a completely separate project. You will have to go to the Indonesian Wiki and submit it there. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:00, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

edit

I don't know where to put the citations because she didn't show me what she did StrawberryChi'sCake (talk) 07:10, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

StrawberryChi'sCake, your draft lacks references to reliable, independent sources that devote significant coverage to this book. Please see WP:NBOOK for what is required. Cullen328 (talk) 07:15, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:14, 30 August 2023 review of submission by OruVattamKoodi

edit

This is a new article regarding a new film releasing soon, so we don't have any resources to add under reference and citation. Can I publish it? 

OruVattamKoodi (talk) 13:14, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@OruVattamKoodi: no, you cannot publish it, and if you did, it would either be sent back to drafts or deleted. Unreleased films are invariably not notable. In any case, a draft/article must be supported by reliable sources; yours has none.
I will also post a message on your talk page about conflicts of interest; please read and action it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

13:15, 30 August 2023 review of submission by 159.148.48.1

edit

This term is used extremely often in social media and in interpersonal communication. I think it's only logical that wikipedia describes what this word means to help wiki users understand what someone else is talking about. 159.148.48.1 (talk) 13:15, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This draft has been deleted, and your other one is pending deletion. Please do not create more of the same. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:19, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

how can i solve this please help me 

103.237.36.81 (talk) 16:02, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing to solve? The subject is not notable so we cannot have an article about them. Theroadislong (talk) 16:05, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Zahidul, Wikipedia is not a social networking website. You cannot have a Wikipedia article. Qcne (talk) 16:12, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

How can I improve my content KatiaApati (talk) 16:29, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The content is blatant advertising please use other means to promote this. Theroadislong (talk) 16:31, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Left my standard deletion notice. Perhaps it will be both helpful and informative. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:54, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

17:00, 30 August 2023 review of submission by Berber.Enjoyer2

edit

Hello ! thank for fast response i wanted to know why it's say my draft should be sourced with source and not wikipedia the last source i putted came from a webstite that resume all the war and i wanted to know how to take the good url to redirect to the good line ! t Berber.Enjoyer2 (talk) 17:00, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, @Berber.Enjoyer2, could you try re-phrasing that: I'm not sure what you mean?
Unfortunately you also seem to have copied a large amount of the text from [1]https://journals.openedition.org/cdlm/8011#ftn1. This has now been deleted as a copyright violation. I am sorry I didn't pick up on this when I first reviewed it. You should have paraphrased the article, not copied it indiscriminately. Pinging the second reviewer, @ARandomName123 Qcne (talk) 17:25, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes sorry i'm right now paraphrased the article i hope it will be accepted Berber.Enjoyer2 (talk) 17:26, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
When doing so, please take care not to paraphrase it too closely. Instead, summarize it in your own words. WP:PARAPHRASE may be helpful. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 17:43, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think there may be some confusion about my decline. Before I noticed the copyvio, I declined it for reliable sources. The comment I left (this is probably what you're talking about) was The background and negotiation sections are sourced to this draft. They should be sourced to reliable sources, not Wikipedia. See WP:CIRCULAR. I removed this decline and replaced it with the cv one when I noticed the copyvio. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 17:38, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi again ! thank for helping me creating my draft, i finnaly finish it and i think now it's better and it have better source like a comptoprary source and a whole website Berber.Enjoyer2 (talk) 20:10, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My submission has been rejected for the lack of third'party sources. I would like to confirm that the number of independent sources in the revised version is sufficient. User18762 (talk) 18:42, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

21:22, 30 August 2023 review of submission by Azunna4u

edit

I had an entry refused with the reason that the references doesn't show significant coverage. Most of the items are from newspaper publication making me repeat it severally but in specific places, I quoted specific references like being students union president where I referenced the handbook with the information (He was actually the first African students union president at West Ham). I have a copy of that hand book here with me. I need help on how to remedy this. The person in questions deserves this as he was a forerunner in many instances Azunna4u (talk) 21:22, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Azunna4u I fixed your link, you were missing the "Draft:" part. 331dot (talk) 21:42, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
You have done a great job summarizing thjs person's accomplishments, but that's not what we are looking for; we are looking for significant coverage in independent reliable sources, coverage that discusses what makes him important/significant/influential as a person. 331dot (talk) 21:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for fixing my link. I improved on the references but was declined again. If you can, please look at it again and advice. Thanks. Azunna4u (talk) 14:57, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Azunna4u: the only secondary source you're citing is the first one, and it's not enough. We need to see significant coverage of him in multiple (= 3+) independent and reliable secondary sources. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:04, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @DoubleGrazing. I'll need more advice please. When you write about things that happened pre internet (especially in Nigeria) it becomes a bit tough with what I'm seeing here. The other ones are secondary sources but unfortunately are hard copies and cannot be accessed from the internet. For example, I have the 1959 student's union handbook right before me here and it talks about the subject extensively. So do the other hard copies. What's the best way to deal with this? Azunna4u (talk) 15:24, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Azunna4u: sources don't have to be online (or in English, for that matter); offline sources are acceptable, as long as they otherwise meet the quality requirements in WP:GNG, and are cited with full bibliographical detail to enable them to be verified by others (see WP:OFFLINE for more info on this).
That said, a student's union handbook doesn't sound like a secondary source to me. Please revise WP:SECONDARY so you're clear on what sort of sources we're after. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:55, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Okay thanks. I'll work on it again. Azunna4u (talk) 17:26, 1 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
