09:34, 26 June 2023 review of submission by 103.122.6.62 edit

Wants to successfully submit my draft : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Ankush_Prashant_More 103.122.6.62 (talk) 09:34, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have successfully submitted it – but it will be declined as the draft is insufficiently referenced, and there is no indication that the person is notable. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:39, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi IP user. Articles about living people require them to pass Wikipedia:Notability (people) threshold. Every fact and statement in your article needs to be backed up by independent and reliable sources. This is so anyone can verify that the statements in your article are accurate.
It might be worth reading Wikipedia:Your first article which gives you the dos and don'ts of creating an article.
The easiest way to fix this draft is to find sources that cover Ankush Prashant More in detail, and then summarise them in your own words. That should make up the content of your article draft. Note that the sources must be:
- Reliable: Your article should rely on strong, reliable sources and published by reputable institutions. Primary sources can be used for basic facts (such as a date of birth), but they should be supplemented with strong secondary sources that offer analysis or interpretation.
- Independent: Your sources should be independent of the subject, for example not self-published or from the subject's own website.
- Show significant coverage: Your subject should be discussed in detail in the sources you find. The sources should provide in-depth information about the subject, going beyond basic facts or promotional material.
- From multiple places: You should find at least three separate strong, reliable, secondary sources that discuss your subject.
- Not Original Research: Wikipedia articles should summarise existing knowledge about a subject, not present new research. This means you should avoid drawing your own conclusions or analyses from the sources. Stick to summarising what the sources say in a neutral tone.

What is your question, @DBryant007? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:28, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @DBryant007. Articles about living people require them to pass Wikipedia:Notability (people) threshold. The reviewer has decided that Dwayne does not meet this threshold at this time. We also strongly discourage you from creating an article about yourself, due to the conflict of interest.

11:23, 26 June 2023 review of submission by Satyendraias edit

why my articale is not accepting again and again 

Satyendraias (talk) 11:23, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Satyendraias: as explained in the decline and deletion notices posted on your talk page, Wikipedia is not a place to promote yourself; this is an encyclopaedia, not a social media or blogging platform. Please see WP:AUTOBIO. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:28, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
no it not a my personal thing i just created with his name its an ex dm of lucknow nad people know about him Satyendraias (talk) 12:18, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Satyendraias: be that as it may – promotion or self-promotion, pretty much boils down to the same thing.
And if that really isn't you, then you should probably change your username. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:47, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi IP Editor. Your draft has been Submitted and may take up to four months or longer to be reviewed.
However, your draft in it's current state is very likely to be Declined. This is because it cites no sources. Every fact and statement in your article needs to be backed up by independent and reliable sources. This is so anyone can verify that the statements in your article are accurate and to ensure that the series is notable.
It might be worth reading Wikipedia:Your first article which gives you the dos and don'ts of creating an article, plus the Wikipedia:Citing sources guide that explains how to cite sources.
The easiest way to fix your draft is to find sources that cover Shaka Ilembe in detail, and then summarise them in your own words. That should make up the content of your article draft. Note that the sources must be:
- Reliable: Your article should rely on strong, reliable sources that are published by reputable institutions. Primary sources can be used for basic facts, but they should be supplemented with strong secondary sources that offer analysis or interpretation. Note that IMDB is not considered a reliable source as it is user generated.
- Independent: Your sources should be independent of the subject, for example not self-published or from the subject's own website.
- Show significant coverage: Your subject should be discussed in detail in the sources you find. The sources should provide in-depth information or analysis about the subject, going beyond basic facts or promotional material.
- From multiple places: You should find at least three separate reliable, independent, secondary sources that discuss your subject.
- Not original research: Wikipedia articles should summarise existing knowledge about a subject, not present new research. This means you should avoid drawing your own conclusions or analyses from the sources. Stick to summarising what the sources say in a neutral tone.
Please note that if you are connected in any way to Shaka Ilembe then you must declare your Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

16:51, 26 June 2023 review of submission by 2603:8001:8D00:2831:7DDF:EDE5:55EE:488F edit

Need help understanding what changes should be made. 2603:8001:8D00:2831:7DDF:EDE5:55EE:488F (talk) 16:51, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @2603:8001:8D00:2831:7DDF:EDE5:55EE:488F.
Your draft article reads like a curriculum vitae or a résumé, not an encyclopaedic article. Remember that Wikipedia is not a place for any type of self-promotion or advertisement. It is also worth reading Wikipedia:Wikipedia is not the place to post your résumé.
Howard Feldman may indeed meet the Wikipedia:Notability (academics) criteria for a Wikipedia article, but you need to find sources that cover him in detail, and then summarise them in your own words. That should make up the content of your article draft. Note that the sources must be:
- Reliable: Your article should rely on strong, reliable sources that are published by reputable institutions. Primary sources can be used for basic facts (such as a date of birth), but they should be supplemented with strong secondary sources that offer analysis or interpretation.
- Independent: Your sources should be independent of the subject, for example not self-published or from the subject's own website.
- Show significant coverage: Your subject should be discussed in detail in the sources you find. The sources should provide in-depth information or analysis about the subject, going beyond basic facts or promotional material.
- From multiple places: You should find at least three separate reliable, independent, secondary sources that discuss your subject.
- Not original research: Wikipedia articles should summarise existing knowledge about a subject, not present new research. This means you should avoid drawing your own conclusions or analyses from the sources. Stick to summarising what the sources say in a neutral tone.
Remember that your article should be written from a Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
If you cannot find multiple, reliable, and independent sources then I am afraid that Howard Feldman would not meet the notability threshold at this time and therefore cannot have a Wikipedia article.
Finally, please note that if you are connected in any way to Howard then you must declare your Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.

19:39, 26 June 2023 review of submission by Jesseandwhite edit

I am not able to submit this for review. Jesseandwhite (talk) 19:39, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You would need to click the blue box "click for review" but it would be pointless, it would be declined because it is VERY poorly sourced. Theroadislong (talk) 19:47, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Jesseandwhite I added the template so you can submit it but if you do, it will be declined for not meeting both WP:verifiability as most of the content is unsourced and it does not meet the the notability guidelines (see also WP:NSPORT). S0091 (talk) 19:47, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just wondering, what is considered a true source? Jesseandwhite (talk) 19:50, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Jesseandwhite. To submit for review, press the Finished drafting? Submit for review! button.
However, in it's current state your article will be declined. Articles about living people require them to pass Wikipedia:Notability (people) threshold which includes sources that cover Rizza in detail. You would then summarise the sources in your own words. That should make up the content of your article draft. Note that the sources must be:
- Reliable: Your article should rely on strong, reliable sources that are published by reputable institutions. Primary sources can be used for basic facts (such as a date of birth), but they should be supplemented with strong secondary sources that offer analysis or interpretation.
- Independent: Your sources should be independent of the subject, for example not self-published or from the subject's own website.
- Show significant coverage: Your subject should be discussed in detail in the sources you find. The sources should provide in-depth information or analysis about the subject, going beyond basic facts or promotional material.
- From multiple places: You should find at least three separate reliable, independent, secondary sources that discuss your subject.
- Not original research: Wikipedia articles should summarise existing knowledge about a subject, not present new research. This means you should avoid drawing your own conclusions or analyses from the sources. Stick to summarising what the sources say in a neutral tone.
If you cannot find multiple, reliable, and independent sources then I am afraid that Rizza would not meet the notability threshold at this time and therefore cannot have a Wikipedia article.
Finally, please note that if you are connected in any way to Rizza then you must declare your Wikipedia:Conflict of interest.
