Owlz r radz (talk) 01:34, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Owlz r radz: the reason why you cannot access this draft is because it has been deleted. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:49, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

I dont understand why Nordisk Film & TV Fond gets declined.
Please see; https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordisk_Film_%26_TV_Fond
Mathiasferre (talk) 08:46, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @Mathiasferre: it was declined for the reasons given in the decline notice – did you read it? That is, there is no evidence that the subject is notable, and because the sources are primary, they cannot be used to independently verify the information. (The fact that an article on this subject may exist in other language versions of Wikipedia is neither here nor there.) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:50, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Hey, can I please get some clarification on why the article was declined(within seconds) I'm wondering what makes it not notable? is it the text, sources or subject matter?
Kind thanks for your help
DoctorDaleks (talk) 12:45, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- @DoctorDaleks: it is the sources; notability is established by citing appropriate sources, from which it follows that lack of such sources is what makes a subject non-notable. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:12, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

I am looking for advice on how to ensure that this does not read as an advertisement and has a completely neutral point of view. Thanks for your help!

- @Dharable: the fundamental problem with this draft is that it gives no reason why this, seemingly ROTM business should be included in a global encyclopaedia. Just existing isn't a reason, nor is offering some services. Therefore, as it stands, this draft appears to just try to 'make people aware' of the company, which is pretty much the definition of promotion. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:00, 29 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello. I need help understanding the reasons why my article was denied. The message says it needs more links. How many links? Do you have a more specific suggestion?
Connex Global (talk) 21:16, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- Hi @Connex Global It is not just the number of sources ("links") but the quality of the sources. The sources you have are poor, either not reliable and/or not independent. For example, Canada Homestay Network is neither reliable (no editorial oversight or history of fact checking) nor independent (they offer the service so are affiliated with them). Generally it is best to stick with mainstream media sources, such as reputable newspapers. I suggest thoroughly reading the the sourcing and notability criteria for companies.
