Ptayushgaur, do you have a question about an Articles for creation draft? Cullen328 (talk) 07:32, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Sorry but your presumed autobiography User:Ptayushgaur/sandbox is poorly written, hagiographic tone, poorly sourced and has no evidence of passing the criteria at WP:GNG. Theroadislong (talk) 07:39, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Draft:Oskar Meurer (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This wikipedia article has een aproved of both of the parents of all the kids and oskar meurer, we are not leaking any of the personal information but names and birth year and ofcourse his story wich all has been aproved by the parents Oskar Meurer (talk) 08:56, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

@Oskar Meurer I have requested the supression of the content of this draft for this twice now. Please do not write about yourself further, it is a really bad idea to freely give out so much personal information onto the internet. That is very dangerous. You are not notable enough to merit a Wikipedia article. Please do not write another draft. Qcne (talk) 08:58, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

First, if you are not Oskar, you shouldn't be using his name as your username. Your account should be operated by a single person who does not give access to others.

Approval of the subject or their parents is not required- but this is not social media. This is an encyclopedia that summarizes what independent reliable sources say about topics that are notable as Wikipedia defines the term. Please see your first article.

Please consider very carefully if you want to be doing this at all, see this page for more information. It may be unwise to post that much personal information about Oskar. 331dot (talk) 09:00, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Its not any more personal information than there is about other people here Oskar Meurer (talk) 09:42, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

@Oskar Meurer: The problem is you're writing about minors, which means we have to treat any sort of personally-identifying information as extremely concerning for the sake of their safety. There is a world of difference between writing about a minor and writing about an adult in terms of what should and should not be in the article. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 16:02, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Draft:Asiahorse (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hello, I'm Jessie GYU8, I uploaded the draft of Asiahorse. And had been rejected. Sorry for taking your time, can you tell me what information can be added to my draft to improve its professionalism and reliability? Because in the process of writing, I gave up some references that can prove its popularity in order to avoid violating the rules of the Wikipedia platform, I would like to confirm with you which links can be introduced into the Wikipedia page? Jessie GYU8 (talk) 09:48, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Rejection means that it is the end of the road for this draft, at least for now. If you can address the concerns of the reviewers, you need to first appeal to the last reviewer directly.

I see that you claim that you personally created the logo of the company, is that the case? You have also made it available for anyone to use for any purpose with attribution; this means that competitors could hypothetically take your logo and use it for commercial purposes and your company would not be entitled to any money from the commercial use of its own logo. Do you really want to do that? 331dot (talk) 09:55, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

@Digitalstories: sorry, we don't get involved in editing here at the help desk; that's very much your job.

11:30, 16 May 2024 review of submission by 71.31.70.166

• 71.31.70.166 (talk · contribs) ^(TB)
  • Draft:Valentina Gomez (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This draft has been declined because the reviewer says it does "not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject." Just a basic Google search shows that Valentina Gomez is the most-covered 2024 Missouri secretary of state candidate in the race, so this doesn't make sense. What exactly is the Wikipedia definition of the phrase "significant coverage"? 71.31.70.166 (talk) 11:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Firstly, we don't go hunting for sources. Either they are cited in the draft (indeed, the draft should be based on sources that meet the WP:GNG standard), or they don't exist as far as the review process is concerned. We have currently nearly 2,700 pending drafts in the system, and don't have the bandwidth to start doing research on all of them.

Secondly, campaign publicity in most cases confers no notability on unelected candidates.

The concept of significant coverage is described at WP:SIGCOV. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:39, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the quick response. I will edit this draft article and try again. PeaRidge62 (talk) 11:44, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Please remember that Wikipedia has little interest in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is almost entirely interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. If enough material is cited from independent sources to establish notability, a limited amount of uncontroversial factual information may be added from non-independent sources. ColinFine (talk) 23:23, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for the information. I am pleased to say that every source in the draft is an independent source, as I have removed all material from the draft that comes from a non-independent source. PeaRidge62 (talk) 23:42, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Google cannot be used to source anything, neither can IMDb. The topic does not appear to be in any way notable. Theroadislong (talk) 14:34, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Also, the draft is hopelessly promotional.

is a versatile artist and entrepreneur acclaimed for his contributions. Which wholly independent commentator has described him as "versatile"? Such evaluative language should never, ever, appear in an article in Wikipedia's voice.

Similarly with "acclaimed", "notable", "renowned", "widespread recognition". Unless you are directly quoting (and attributing) a wholly independent reliable source, all such promotional language should be removed. ColinFine (talk) 23:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Sancionet for what ? For trying to claim my right to existence ? Promanowski (talk) 16:29, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

No, for using ethnically-charged and aggressive comments in a topic area that has a history of ethno-political conflicts and thus has more administrator attention and less leeway for misbehaviour than usual. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 16:32, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

• Jmelki (talk · contribs) ^(TB)
  • Draft:Jad Melki (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hello, I created a page for "Jad Melki" and it was rejected three times. Each time, i addressed the comments noted for the rejection, and each time I get new comments that have nothing to do with the previous comments. In addition, I get emails that seem to be from the reviewers that propose to help me in return for a fee. This is starting to feel like a scam. Can you please help? Jmelki (talk) 23:08, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

As far as I can see, not one of the current citations meets the triple criteria of reliability, independence, and substantial coverage described in the golden rule: most of them are not independent of Melki, and some don't mention him at all.

With no sources that meet those criteria, you have not established that he meets Wikipedia's criteria for notability; and until you have done that, there is no point writing so much as one word of a draft.

Yours is the common, almost universal, experience of people who attempt the challenging task of writing an article when they have not spent time learning the required skills. I always advise new editors to spend several months learning how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles - by the time they understand about verifiability, neutral point of view, independence of sources, and notability, they will have enough knowledge and understanding to read your first article - and also enough knowledge and understanding to see why trying to write an autobiography on Wikipedia is usually a waste of everybody's time. (And yes, I know you've been around since 2009, but with 19 edits in your history, you are a new editor). ColinFine (talk) 02:48, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Sarvadas01, nothing written by Mishra himself helps to establish his notability. LinkedIn is not a reliable source. The YouTube channel is not a reliable source. Medium is not a reliable source.

Is it okay? MaribelCasey178 (talk) 06:04, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

@MaribelCasey178: "is it okay?" Well, no, it's not.

When your draft (such as it is) gets declined for lack of notability and lack of referencing, you do not simply resubmit it; that is unhelpful, as well as rather annoying. You address the decline reasons.

In any case, a single sentence stating that someone is an actor and model (plus another sentence stating what they're not) is not a viable article draft, it is not even a viable stub of a draft.

Develop the draft further and add evidence of notability, either per WP:GNG or WP:NACTOR, and I'll consider reverting my rejection. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:12, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Steps to create an article successfully.

1. Find several sources each of which is reliable, wholly indepedent of the subject, and contain significant coverage of the subject (see WP:42 for more detail).
2. If you cannot find at least three such source, give up on this subject. Any further time you spend on it will be waste.
3. If you can find them, then forget everything you know about the subject, and write a neutral summary of what the sources say. Wikipedia has no interest in what you know (or what I know, or what any random person on the internet knows) about the subject: it is only interested in what reliable sources say.

• MorriconeEnnio (talk · contribs) ^(TB)
  • Draft:Nenad Vorih (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I received a notability rejection for my article Draft: Nenad Vorih. I read the policy carefully and edited the text to reflect source which demonstrate the person (artist) meets the following requirements of the policy. I note that in addition the artists meets multiple criteria under the policy and only one is required to fulfill notability under the policy. Vorih is 1) widely cited by peers; AND 2) known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique; AND 3) such work must have been the primary subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews


That he meets these three points under the notability policy should be evident from the text of the article and the references cited to support the text. I am completely at a loss to understand the basis for the rejection or how to address it. Even more sources?? MorriconeEnnio (talk) 09:50, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

MorriconeEnnio Note that it was declined, not rejected. "Rejected" has a specific meaning in the draft submission process, that a draft may not be resubmitted. Declined means that it may be resubmitted.

More sources will not necessarily help, unless they provide information not currently present. Keep in mind that what is completely clear to you may not be to others. If you feel that the reviewer missed something, please discuss it with them. Several of your sources are in different languages that reviewers likely do not know. It's okay to use such references, but you may need to help us understand what they say. 331dot (talk) 10:40, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your clarification! That indeed may be the issue. I did reply to the decliner. Perhaps he will respond so I can clarify his concerns. Much appreciation for your response. MorriconeEnnio (talk) 13:13, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I'd like to ask for an additional set of eyes to take a look at the Draft:Trevor David Rhone. I think Rhone's research on 2 dimensional magnetic materials has had a  significant impact in his field, and he also received recognition from the American Institute of Physics and the National Society of Black Physicists.

The draft has been rejected and will usually not be considered further. After reading it, I'm honestly confused, as I cannot identify the subject of the article. The entire thing lacks inline citations, it's not in a WP:NPOV (with sentences like Ghosis are still discriminating against them, not giving Kamarias equal respect.), and contains links to irrelevant articles.

@Hanrytheo The draft is entirely unsourced and has been declined. Please read Help:Your first article. Also, is the draft about yourself? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 08:19, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

@Hanrytheo: We need at least one in-depth, non-routine, independent-of-Moses news/scholarly article that discusses him at length, has identifiable authors, and is subject to rigourous editorial oversight and fact-checking for every single claim the draft makes that could reasonably be challenged.

Look, I know my page isn't major but I would love to use it to play a joke on my friends and I would appreicate if it could be accepted. What can I do to make it more reliable. ObscuredHeart (talk) 09:08, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

@ObscuredHeart: Wikipedia isn't here for you to play jokes on your friends.

If you wish to create an article on a neologism, you would need to show that it has been not only used but discussed in multiple independent and reliable secondary sources.

As it stands, this draft is little more than a dictionary definition, rather than a viable encyclopaedia article, and effectively unreferenced at that. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:14, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Please play jokes on your friends elsewhere. We don't have articles in a global encyclopedia of human knowledge as jokes on people. There's a role for humor(pages like WP:BROTHER) but not as you are using it. Would you place a fake book on a shelf at the Library of Congress or your local library as a joke? If you did, the librarian would throw it away. 331dot (talk) 09:23, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Firstly, this is very prestigous talk for a website that allows anyone to edit its pages. At a library, you can't edit a book without being a reputable author but for some reason Wikipedia allows it so this comparison is silly. Secondly life is to have fun, plently of people have fun at a local library — are children story times not fun. Why can't I have fun here? ObscuredHeart (talk) 10:02, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

@ObscuredHeart: The reason we're taking offence at your wanting to use Wikipedia to play a joke is because, regardless of its reliability, we take Wikipedia's mission of being an encyclopaedia dead seriously, in part because people will often look at Wikipedia if they want quick information on a given subject that isn't filtered through whatever political nonsense or misinformation that populates social media. We actually put in the effort to make Wikipedia as accurate and as unbiased as we can, but it is (and always has been) an uphill battle. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 18:04, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

I used reference and followed format from articles about colleges with similar notability in Goa,someone of them only had one citation such as MES College,Don Bosco College of Engineering Fatorda and St Xavier's College Mapusa Azure Campus (talk) 11:32, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

This draft has been rejected, and will not be considered further.

Not one of your references meets the triple criterion of being reliable, independent, and having significant coverage of the college (see WP:42).

Wikipedia has little interest in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is almost entirely interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources. If enough material is cited from independent sources to establish notability, a limited amount of uncontroversial factual information may be added from non-independent sources. Without such sources, there is literally nothing that can go into an article. ColinFine (talk) 18:56, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Draft:Teatro Experimental Yerbabruja Inc. (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I added sources from the NY Times, Newsday, and several other trustworthy sources, all completely secondary and referring to the subject in great detail, yet my submission is still declined. I feel like I am missing something, and would like to know the thought process behind this decline, so I can actually fix the problem more effectively. Thank you. Exuperantia (talk) 13:25, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

@Exuperantia: okay, well now that you've resubmitted the draft, you will get an assessment and possible feedback when a reviewer picks it up. In the meantime, is there anything you would like to ask? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:39, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Is Newsday considered a viable source? Regarding Long Island, Newsday is the primary source of newspaper/online blog for the Island. I just want to make sure that it is, if not, then I completely understand why it was declined. As far as my research has gone, I think they are pretty accurate, but strictly from a Wikipedian perspective, are they? Exuperantia (talk) 13:44, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

@Exuperantia I'm not aware of any clear consensus one way or another about the reliability or otherwise of Newsday at WP:RSP. It boils down to how much editorial oversight and fact-checking they employ. You describing it as a 'blog' doesn't sound too promising, but perhaps their editorial content is more reliable then their blogs. It is very local, though, so probably has limited use at best for establishing global notability, given that the more local a publication, the lower its news threshold usually is. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:01, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for the reply. Nice to know what criteria I can use for my research and sources more clearly, (editorial oversight and fact-checking) I used the wrong word, they are not a blog, they are a news source. Here is there website:Newsday | Long Island's & NYC's News Source - Newsday As per my research: they are undergone with a fair amount of editorial oversight and verification. I am not sure about global notability, but Teatro Yerbabruja, the company with the mentioned sources from Newsday, is based on Long Island and coverage is fairly strictly on the Island. Exuperantia (talk) 23:43, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't know what "news source" means. If it means something like "online newspaper", with an editorial team, it might be reliable. If it is a place where anybody can post "news" with little or no editorial control, then it is not reliable. If it is an aggregator that reprints items from other newspapers, then it is merely the medium, and you need to determine the reliability of the original source.

Hello, Li-reg. IMDb is not a reliable source, per WP:IMDB. Amazon sells almost everything and being mentioned on Amazon is of no value. Several of the sources are clearly not independent. Which sources are reliable, entirely independent of Freidenberg, and devote significant coverage to him? The quality of the sources is vastly more important than the quantity. As for the Hebrew and German Wikipedias, they are entirely independent of the English Wikipedia, and each project sets its own standards. English Wikipedia tends to be quite stringent. Cullen328 (talk) 22:54, 19 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for replying! What about the other sources? I.e ynet, docaviv, universities... I placed a few more... Li-reg (talk) 13:41, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

I will expend:

1. Hebrew University - one of the top 3 uni' in Israel, very independent

2. Yad Vashem - Please read about it, couldnt be more independent

3. globes - One of the top 3 news websites in Israel, also very independent

4. bezalel - ezalel Academy of Arts and Design Jerusalem

and I assume you woulndnt want me to go on...

@Cullen328 Please have a look, it's very weird he's declined...

Thank you! Li-reg (talk) 20:51, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Li-reg, it seems that you did not understand what I meant when I wrote entirely independent of Freidenberg and devote significant coverage to him. He is a PhD candidate at Hebrew University, and their standard blurb about him is not an independent source. I am very familiar with Yad Vashem having visited there twice. The Yad Vashem source is a routine calendar listing of a film showing and a lecture by Freidenberg, and that is not significant coverage of Freidenberg. The Globes coverage is one sentence about one of Freidenberg's films being accepted to a film festival followed by another sentence about the festival that says nothing more about Freidenberg. That is a passing mention and is not significant coverage. As for Bezalel, he is a lecturer there and so their standard staff blurb about him is not independent coverage. So, if these are your four best sources, I recommend that you set this draft aside until much better sources emerge. Cullen328 (talk) 21:40, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi again, first, i'm happy you visited Yad Vashem! very importent for our nation...

I placed it since it confirms he's a lecturer as well as the other sources from the uni and collages in Israel. Here it's not a standart thing and not everyone gets a page.

I wrote about 4 sources but you can see there are others. I will add more now and resubmit with an explantion I added sources. Thank you and hope you will visit again,,, now we have more places to visit.. Li-reg (talk) 20:48, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@NYSG65 the draft was not just declined, but rejected, meaning it will usually not be considered further. Like the reviewers said, most, if not all, of the sources are not independent. We cannot cite his own songs as sources, nor can we cite lyrics to the songs. The draft is also promotional in tone, with sentences such as A seasoned multi faceted entrepreneur with various business portfolios in wide array of products and services from a luxury lifestyle brand, creative agency and services, real estate and agriculture. What you "need" to do is a complete rewrite and adding multiple independent sources if you want to have it accepted. Wikipedia is not for promotion.

I have read the criteria and David Wicht absolutely qualifies. So why does the article keep getting turned down. Karinvanderlaag (talk) 11:58, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for answering Double Grazing. As you can tell I am new to this. Being insulted by the other editors is not helping. I thought that I had to re-write the article with a new submission template. I do not understand the notes given to me by Tim Trent but have now been banned from speaking to him ever again because I asked him for advice. I had no idea that this was such a hostile environment. I was asked to write these pages and knew that I would need help. All over the page it says "ask if you need help" but when one asks the help is cryptic and when one doesn't understand one gets insulted by editors like Theroadislong. I don't even know how to tag him or her on this comment, but I hope he sees it. I still do not quite understand what to do. My plan is to remove the filmography completely, cut the article down to the bare bones and keep most of my references. But, I understood that one of the main problems was that the title needed to be Film maker and not just a living person, hence my question? There are many South African producers who have done WAY less than David Wicht and many production companies who have done way less than Film Afrika who are already on Wikipedia, which is very confusing. I have not even started with my draft for Film Afrika, I was starting to get info into a kind of sandbox page with material from their website and was already threatened with deletion because it was "copied" from their website... I hadn't even published it yet!

Please can i get a clear answer as to what to do next for David Wicht's page.

Having read WP:NFILMMAKER i absolutely think DAVID WICHT qualifies. Karinvanderlaag (talk) 11:57, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

@Karinvanderlaag: with respect, it does not matter whether you think this subject is notable; it only matters what you can demonstrate through sources. (You, being a paid editor, would argue that he is notable, wouldn't you?)

Paid editing is accepted on Wikipedia, as long as it is appropriately disclosed and does not cross the border into spamming or advertising, but paid editors are largely left to their own devices. After all, why would volunteers, who give up their time freely, use their time for the benefit of those who are being paid for their contributions? I don't ask someone else to do my job for me, why would you?

As for what to do with this draft, it seems to me you've already received plenty of advice, whether you've chosen to take it or not. The main obstacle you need to over come is, you need to show that the subject meets one of our notability guidelines, either the general WP:GNG one, or the special WP:FILMMAKER one. And when I say "show", I don't mean you arguing that he does, I mean you producing acceptable evidence of that as required by these guidelines. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:09, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

It is also your user page, which you shouldn't have submitted for publication in the first place. See WP:UP for what user pages are, and what you are and aren't allowed to have on them.

Sure, almost all of it. It's written in a very promotional tone, with sentences such as His lyrics convey messages of peace and positivity, aiming to inspire both his peers and younger listeners. If you really want this draft to be accepted, it would need a complete rewrite. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 11:57, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

but that comes from an article if you see nothing is elf written but taken from articles so that sentence is from the article. So would i still be wrong to include that? Linexrecords (talk) 11:59, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

If multiple, reliable, independent sources do describe him like that, then sure. But right now, with only one source that doesn't say that, no, don't include anything like that. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 12:01, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Draft:Steven Hurder (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I am new here, and would appreciate help. I added a page for mathematician Steven Hurder, and it was rejected for, in particular, unclarity of notability. What are necessary and sufficient requirements for scientists to be notable enough for Wikipedia? I have read the generic notability criteria and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons but I did not find anything that discusses scientists, or other people whose works' notability can in some sense be measured. I am not aware of any publications _about_ Hurder as a person, but Hurder has publications in the top level mathematics journals including Annals and Inventiones. From looking at mathematicians currently on Wikipedia, it did not seem that the bar for accomplishments is this high, but perhaps I misunderstand the point, and notability is determined by something else. Muluk muluk (talk) 12:03, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

To attempt to clarify, to save my time and the reviewers' time, I don't want to try to "fix" the page, before having a better understanding of whether in fact the person is actually likely to be notable with Wikipedia's definition. Muluk muluk (talk) 12:08, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

fixed all the issues Factsofpolitics (talk) 14:28, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Factsofpolitics. I have rejected the draft and it won't be considered further. Sorry, I do not see how she is notable. If you think you can prove notability under WP:NPEOPLE, let me know. Qcne (talk) 15:57, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

In the political landscape, Mahnoor Ahmad is a notable figure. As a first-time candidate, she broke new ground by running in a district that has historically been represented by white men, and she was the first to run as a true Democrat in this district. Her candidacy was not only groundbreaking but also historic, as she would have been the first American Pakistani to serve in Congress if elected. Ahmad plans to run again in 2026 and is poised to continue her impactful campaign. She was recognized as the most competitive challenger, not only in Illinois but also on a national scale. Factsofpolitics (talk) 17:32, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Ahmad was the only candidate in her district to ever run a campaign that was 100% people-funded, without a dime from corporations or special interest groups. Ahmad's commitment to grassroots funding makes her the future of democracy, especially in light of Ro Khanna's proposed bill to ban congressional candidates from accepting money from corporations or special interest groups.

@Factsofpolitics that's a long pointless speal which does not prove notability. Notability is proved through significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources. Qcne (talk) 18:05, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Kernow Asset Management (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi, a couple of years ago I tried to create a page for the asset management Kernow Asset Management (I work with them on their marketing).

It was rejected because it wasn't sufficiently notable - ie did not have enough independent news articles about the company, and also contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia - I think perhaps because I have an affiliation with the company. Now that a couple of years have passed the company has received more independent news coverage and I'm hoping to resubmit. I believe it has a place on Wikipedia, to fit among the asset management companies listed on this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_asset_management_firms

If anyone could advise on the application and how I can best go about it to ensure I respect Wikipedia's rules and guidelines, I'd be very grateful. I'm not looking to submit any impartial information, just to have the company listed among its contemporaries (the firm is on the list of external fund managers backed by Norges Bank Investment Management).

Thanks so much in advance. Hcdmdigital (talk) 14:29, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, that should be 'I'm not looking to submit any biased/non-impartial information'! Hcdmdigital (talk) 14:31, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Hcdmdigital. Thanks for making the paid editing declaration- that is the right thing to do. I would recommend closely reading our notability guidelines on organisations. Can you prove that Kernow Asset Mngmt meets the criteria there? If so, go ahead and create a new draft. I'd be happy to have a look at it before you submit it for review.

Some things to watch:

- do not rely on churnalism or re-gurgitated press releases, they are useless for establishing notability.

- we are not interested in what the company has to say about itself, but instead what other people independent of the company have to say about it.

- watch out for WP:PEACOCK words and have a look at WP:SOLUTIONS too.

- as a marketing professional you are going to have difficulty writing neutrally, as writing for Wikipedia is very different from writing for a company. The best advice is to only summarise/paraphrase what those existing reliable independent sources state about the company with absolutely no additions. Pretend it is an autopsy report.

Let me know if you have any questions. Qcne (talk) 14:55, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Qcne, thanks so much for your advice, that's really helpful. Will carefully read the notability guidelines and put up a draft using your notes - will definitely take you up on your offer to review before I submit. Thanks! Hcdmdigital (talk) 14:58, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Just ping me on my Talk Page :) Qcne (talk) 15:04, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Hcdmdigital, just to add to Qcne's excellent advice - you've linked a list of asset management firms, and one thing that editors often get wrong is using a couple of random similar articles to base theirs on. This can be a terrible idea because in the older days of en-Wiki, just about any article was approved, and many of them have not been seriously looked at since, so they are not good examples to use. I think for your purposes, WikiProject Finance & Investment might be the most relevant WikiProject - have a look at some of their listed Featured Articles (FA; the highest quality on Wikipedia) or Good Articles (GA; a strong second-highest quality). A couple I found that might be useful for you as they seem to be similar companies: Apollo Global Management; Bridgewater Associates; International Finance Corporation (all GAs). The WikiProject may also have some resources for you, along with editors with an interest in this subject. Good luck and happy editing! StartGrammarTime (talk) 04:38, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks @StartGrammarTime that's really helpful! Will take a look at those articles and the WikiProject as well. Hcdmdigital (talk) 08:39, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

I have had an article on a professional female footballer rejected. Despite adding numerous new sources as requested it was again rejected. My issue is that the footballer was then contacted directly on Instagram by a company who knew of the rejection and offered to help with it. This is highly suspicious behaviour, and possibly exploitation and extortion of the system. The company is Gloster media and I suspect they are connected with the reviewers of the wikipedia page.

@Goodfellow12 They prove that Verma exists. They do not show whether he passes WP:BIO, which you must prove.

For a living person we have a high standard of referencing. Every substantive fact you assert, especially one that is susceptible to potential challenge, requires a citation with a reference that is about them, and is independent of them, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS, and is significant coverage. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact cited, that meet these tough criteria is likely to make this draft a clear acceptance (0.9 probability). Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the person is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today.

  • Draft:The Celery Farm (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

First time trying to submit an article, need help clarifying review. The two notes left on the article are that it reads more like an advertisement, and that the references do not meet the criteria. I agree that the article was written with a non-neutral point of view at points, which I will correct soon, however the second point isn't clear to me. Would the organization in charge of maintaining a park be considered an independent source when reporting on the park? Particularly when reporting objective facts, such as the length of a trail or the number of species seen, would the organization be a fair source? YakMeat (talk) 18:12, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

@YakMeat: No, it would not. We do not consider any entity with a significant connexion to the subject to be independent of them. The government sources also do not help for notability. Reference 3 is incomplete (page numbers). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 18:19, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Again, just trying to clarify because I am new to this, but would these sources then have to be removed entirely to qualify the article? Or would they just have to be backed up by further independent sources? I guess my question would be: Would the article be automatically ineligible as long as these sources are listed on the references in any capacity? YakMeat (talk) 18:24, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

You can certainly keep the sources you've already got to cite various bits of the article, but what we need is to prove that the park is notable. We do that by seeing significant coverage of the park in multiple (usually at least three) independent reliable published sources.

The only source that comes close to that is the Allendale Historical Society ones - though not sure how reliable they are. The rest of your sources are not independent of the park.

So: two or three sources, all independent, all reliable, all secondary that provide significant coverage. It could be travel magazines or websites giving a review, research articles documenting the flora/fauna, books discussing the history, etc. Qcne (talk) 18:37, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for clarifying! YakMeat (talk) 18:38, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

If it helps I think there's a good start to an article here. I'd be minded to cut down some of the content to make it a little more concise, sticking to the relevant facts. There isn't that much in the way of non-neutral language, but it might be worth reading WP:PEACOCK for words to avoid. Qcne (talk) 18:40, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Yeah I think there is enough out there for the article to be warranted, I just needed to know a little more about some of the specifics regarding sourcing but I will continue to work on it. YakMeat (talk) 18:47, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

@YakMeat: To answer that, I'll ask you to read over my /Decode subpage (linked in my signature as "critiques") before you read the following:

• https://fykenature.org/celeryfarm.php is useless for notability as we've explained above (connexion to subject). Same goes for every other fykenature.org cite.
• I'm not sure we can use https://www.njallendalehistoricalsociety.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Allendale-1978-00-00-CELERYFARM-HISTORY-Its-Natural-History-Complete_Part1.pdf as it doesn't seem like it was formally published? I could very well be wrong.
• As I mentioned above, Reference 3 is incomplete (book numbers).
• https://www.allendalenj.gov/about-allendale/pages/history is useless for notability (gov't document).
• https://www.njallendalehistoricalsociety.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Allendale-1990-11-00-HS-NL-Allendale-History-and-Heritage.pdf does not support the claim it is cited for in the slightest. The article makes no mention of a J.J. Zabriskie (it mentions an "Albert (L.) Zabriskie" twice) and doesn't say anything about peat.
• We can't use https://ebird.org/hotspot/L229904 (too sparse). Birdwatching list. The other ebird.org cite is a non-sequitur.
• I'm not sure I can fairly assess https://fykenature.org/doc/RutgersSoilReport.pdf - it's a soil test performed by Rutgers University that discusses the soil at the Celery Farm, which seems to me like it would only be good if there were something wildly unusual about the soil (say, Love Canal-unusual). Otherwise, this seems like it'd be a poor cite. Our audience is Mikhail from Allendale, not farmers working at the farm who'd actually care about this.

What we're looking for is in-depth, non-routine, independent-of-the-subject news/scholarly articles that discuss The Celery Farm at length, are written by identifiable authors, and subjected to rigourous fact-checking and editorial processes. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 18:42, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Draft:Jinny's Kitchen (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi! My draft has been rejected for being "Close but not quite enough independent, significant coverage." and a message has been left on my talk page to ask why here.
If it's a request to have more english-USA sources, it's about a korean content that wasn't really covered by US media even if it's highly viewed on Amazon Prime. I've seen that non-english sources can be added in such cases. I've been careful to only add sources considered as reliabled (there was a help page that listed them but I can't find it anymore) or at least weren't blacklisted by Wikipedia (that's the reason why I didn't covered the "developpement" section since I didn't have any ref to add).
As for coverage, BTS V being the most-viewed K-pop idol on Wikipedia since 2015, I think people can be interested by this article. The article includes filming, casting and promotion informations in a detached way as well as basic information about the show (summary, air date...). It is also related to other wikipedia pages about the same franchise (eg Youn's Kitchen) or other related programming (eg. The game carterers).

I hope all these informations help you see how I understood the note and why I don't understand the rejection.

Thank you for your time and assistance. Juliepersonne2 (talk) 20:35, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Juliepersonne2. It's totally okay to have Korean-language sources. What we need is sources that are totally independent from the cast/crew/production of the TV show. Not interviews, PR statements, etc. We also need significant coverage so not brief regular coverage, but in-depth reviews/analysis/discussion/commentary. Qcne (talk) 20:43, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your quick answer @Qcne. I think the sources of the draft respect what you said as they are mainly just press articles...? Could you show me an example of where I should have add another type of source? I took example of pages like NCIS: Sydney, NCIS (TV Series) and Youn's Kitchen to make sure it was alright. I think for the coverage page then it refers to "reception" section. It only seems to miss the ratings numbers but since it's in korean I have a hard time reading them^^. Do I still understand wrong?

Hi again @Juliepersonne2. The indiatoday.in and koreatimes.co.kr articles are great. The pinkvilla.com source doesn't load for me anymore- do you have an alternative link? I think just one more source that is like indiatimes/koreatimes and I'd be able to accept. Qcne (talk) 08:13, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello @Qcne! I haven't found an alternative link in reliable english site sadly, so I have replaced it by a korean one. I also added complementary infos with english seemingly reliable sources such as hindustantimes. Hope it is enough to be approved so maybe other users (including anons) with additional infos could help. Thank you again for your time and help! Juliepersonne2 (talk) 17:18, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Juliepersonne2, I think that's acceptable now. Before I accept, could you find a source for the Promotion section? Qcne (talk) 17:38, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

No, it isn't. The reason he doesn't have an article yet is because he doesn't meet notability guidelines for people. In short, it needs multiple reliable, independent sources that cover the subject in depth. Currently there isn't; we cannot cite "Find and update company information" as a source. If by 'small contribution' you mean donations, thank you, but we're all volunteers here, and we review articles based on their content.

My page was declined for the following reason :

"In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are: in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject) reliable secondary independent of the subject"

Hello! fellow editors, like to get updates since I have already tried to satisfy the requirements of the Draft to be considered as an article, though mostly is Porting over the Already approved Content from Chinese Wikipedia (Added citation, wiki links, more refining after MTL of the Original article...)to note this Comic has already been made to an animation which is mentioned in the article also In case if this would be better as a Stub please advise as well ,though from the original article it is already considered not one. Pls. advise, Thanks! Villkomoses (talk) 06:33, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Villkomoses: please be patient, we have 2,600+ drafts awaiting review, and this one was submitted less than ten days ago.

Whether an article on this subject was accepted into the Chinese-language Wikipedia has no bearing on the matter, as each language version is an entirely separate project with their own policies and requirements.

Neither does whether you choose to tag this as a stub (for which it is clearly far too long anyway), as stubs have exactly the same notability and verifiability requirements as more extensive articles. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:43, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I'd like to ask you how I can improve on the sources for this article: Draft:Tinify (TinyPNG) I'm writing it on behalf of the company, but I still think it's useful information. However, I can't get it published because the sources are never quite right, so any feedback would be great! StapesIT (talk) 08:11, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

StapesIT We don't need the whole url when linking to another Wikipedia article or page; the title just needs to be placed in double brackets([[Joe Biden]] renders as Joe Biden).

Wikipedia is not a mere host of information deemed useful by those providing it, nor is it a place for companies to tell about themselves, their products/offerings, and what they do. You did a nice job doing that, but it's not what we are looking for. A Wikipedia article must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability- in this case probably a notable product. "Significant coverage" is that which goes beyond just telling about a topic and what it does, and goes into detail about what makes the topic important/significant/influential as the sources see it, not as the topic itself sees it. 331dot (talk) 08:17, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

The brand's mascot is a panda named George, which reflects the founders' secret obsession with the animal are just a few examples of the vast swathes of highly promotional and unreferenced content that litter your draft. You have declared that you are a paid editor which means that experienced volunteer editors expect that your work on the encyclopedia will be highly professional and fully competent. But no.

Second opinion requested for Draft:Spence_Monroe

Hia folks,

On behalf of @Memevietnam98 who would like a second opinion on my review of this draft Draft:Spence_Monroe.

Context at their Talk Page: User_talk:Memevietnam98#Your_submission_at_Articles_for_creation:_Spence_Monroe_(May_20)_2.

Would any reviewers be willing to do a check and confirm my feeling that the sources do not show notability, and that there is no inherited notability being a father of a U.S. President?

Cheers! Qcne (talk) 10:55, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

That's a bit of a leading question, @Qcne, me old fruit. ;) But yes, FWIW, I concur that the sources fall far short of establishing notability, and having notable offspring confers none, either. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:15, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Kennedykwangari firstly, we don't have 'profile pages' here. All articles are about notable subjects, and are not for promotion.

  • Draft:Stefani Engelstein (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hello, I recently submitted the Artikel on Stefani Engelstein. Unfortunately, it was rejected because it was "not adequately supported by reliable sources." I do not quite understand because everything written in the article can be traced back to her (various) institutional websites or the websites of her publisher(s). Could you please explain? Do you need more sources or a different kind of sources (e.g. more newspaper articles, more reviews etc.)? Thanks and advance

StellaMadeleine (talk) 11:29, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @StellaMadeleine. The problem is the sources are not independent of Stefani. Unless you can prove she meets the WP:NACADEMIC criteria, we'd need significant coverage of her in multiple reliable independent sources, that are secondary to Stefani. Not from her Institutional or Publisher website.

The WP:NACADEMIC criteria is a bit of an odd one, so let me know if you think she specifically passes one of those instead. Qcne (talk) 11:33, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

  • Draft:Luke Buckmaster (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I have addressed all the feedback from the reviewer and submitted a revised version of the page. However it still hasn't been accepted (despite all the feedback being addressed and actioned). Is it possible for another reviewer to look at the page - perhaps somebody with more time? Eruditewookie (talk) 11:38, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Eruditewookie. Draft:Luke_Buckmaster was submitted for review a few weeks ago, but there is a backlog of over 2,600 drafts waiting for review.

However, I have looked at the draft and your sources are nearly all WP:PRIMARY still. I would not accept in it's present state. We need significant coverage in multiple, independent, secondary sources. The only one that is secondary is Home Truths: A Memoir and the Guardian: I can't see Luke being mentioned in the book and he is only briefly mentioned in the Guardian article.

You therefore haven't yet proven notability under WP:NPERSON, sorry. Qcne (talk) 11:42, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Sorry but that's not accurate.

Home Truths: A Memoir is one secondary source. Another key secondary source is the referenced newspaper article that is entirely devoted to a discussion of Buckmaster's work (a review of his book). A third secondary reference is a page written about him by a comedian (Tom Ballard). And a fourth secondary reference is the Guardian piece you refer to by Germaine Greer - one of the most prominent feminist authors in history.

I don't understand how it's possible that you're saying there's one secondary source when I'm counting four? (which by the way is far more than thousands of other Wikipedia pages about writers and creative people) Eruditewookie (talk) 11:48, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Four? Where's that number coming from? Right now, there's two at best. The The Guardian article only mentions Buckmaster once, in almost 3000 words of text. Please also see WP:SIGCOV. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 11:54, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

What about the two newspaper articles - from The Weekly Times and the Sydney Morning Herald - devoted entirely to Buckmaster's book? Do they not count? Eruditewookie (talk) 12:02, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Maybe we're seeing different sources. I will go through them one by one:

1. uow.edu.au: Thesis by Buckmaster, so not independent.
2. Home Truths: I cannot find the words "Luke", "critics" or "Buckmaster" in this book when searching inside on Google Books. Google Books may be erroring, but it's usually really good at OCR and picks up other text fine. Are you sure you have cited the correct book?
3. The Guardian: as @CanonNi stated, a single brief mention.
4. The Guardian: Article by Buckmaster, so not Independent.
5. thesaturdaypaper: Article by Buckmaster, so not Independent.

So I count one secondary source that does not provide significant coverage and one secondary source that doesn't even seem to include the quote you stated, though I admit as I do not have the physical book in front of me I may be incorrect. This is not four @Eruditewookie! Qcne (talk) 12:00, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Yes, it is the correct book. Google books often only show small amounts of a book (otherwise publishers would be rather upset). Would it help if I took a photo of the page from the book and shared it? Eruditewookie (talk) 12:04, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

No, don't do that. You can use offline sources it's just a little more difficult to verify.

You mentioned above you added in sources from The Weekly Times and the Sydney Morning Herald: I see no source from Sydney Morning Herald but you are correct, you have an external link (not a citation) for the weeklytimesnow: as this was not properly formatted as a citation it doesn't appear in the References List so both I and @CanonNi missed it.

The Weekly Times Now review is okay at reviewing the book he wrote, but doesn't do much to show his notability as an author. Qcne (talk) 12:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Your list of sources does not include the Sydney Morning Herald and the Weekly Times articles. Are they not appearing? Is it possible these articles are not being seen by your guys, for some reason? Eruditewookie (talk) 12:06, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

See my comment above, there is definitely no source in the article for the Sydney Morning Herald; the The Weekly Times source was added as an external link not a citation - so it didn't appear in the Ref List. Qcne (talk) 12:08, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Eruditewookie I've now formatted the Weekly Times source as a proper source, and it now appears as ref number #2 Qcne (talk) 12:12, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

And I've just converted the two external links into proper citations, as required by WP:EXTERNAL. This has slightly messed up the order of my ref list above.

Let me know if you can find the Sydney Morning Herald source? Qcne (talk) 12:15, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Have found it and added it to the page. My mistake - I thought I did that Eruditewookie (talk) 12:17, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

(I went in to add it but there was an editing page conflict and now I'm a bit nervous/uncertain, are you able to add this citation for me? thank you....) Eruditewookie (talk) 12:25, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Sorry, we probably edit conflicted when I was fixing your citations. Where in the text do you want this citation to go?

Regarding the source itself; it is an okay one. It is derived partly from an interview with Buckmaster so has some issues with independence, but does do some review of the book.

I am trying to prove notability either via WP:NAUTHOR or the more general WP:NBASIC criteria. I don't think he passes WP:NAUTHOR unless you can prove criteria #4, significant critical attention? We'd need quite a few more in-depth book reviews for that.

Otherwise, I default back to WP:NBASIC. I don't think we are quite there in proving notability under this criteria. Your secondary sources are okay but I think we would need one or two more that really gives significant coverage of Buckmaster through the use of commentary, analysis, discussion. For example, were his blockage of the bridge and arrest reported significantly in any other newspaper - not just him telling the world he did these things, but an independent reporter reporting that he did. Alternatively, do you have any more sources like the Williamson book, where an independent person is describing his contributions? Qcne (talk) 12:32, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

My apologies. I didn't cite either of those sources correctly. Now they've been cited. Hopefully that will fulfill the criteria. Thank you. Eruditewookie (talk) 12:17, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Cziksee. We review articles on their own merit, and both sources are primary sources. Do you have any secondary sources that discusses the tournament? Qcne (talk) 12:01, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

No other source has ever been needed for this type of article, so I wouldn't know what to add, or where. I'll let someone more experienced on wikipedia than I do it. I'd appreciate if you could tell me why it was never an issue before, since all other tournaments seem to include only two primary sources, which I don't quite understand. Cziksee (talk) 12:46, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Cziksee: there can be many reasons for that. In the past notability and referencing requirements were much less strict. Perhaps those earlier articles were created by users with sufficient permissions to create them directly without going through a review process. It could be that those existing articles should in fact be deleted or otherwise dealt with, but no one has got around to doing it yet (we do have approaching 7m articles in the English-language Wikipedia). But regardless of how those articles came about, new articles must meet the currently-applicable policies and guidelines. HTH, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:53, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Aha! Seems like I need to correct myself, albeit only slightly. A paid-editing disclosure has been made in this edit summary (IMO the least useful method to disclose, because if the disclosure isn't immediately obvious it's arguably not much of a disclosure; however, it's not this user's fault that we do accept this method). It was made the day after I had rejected the draft, and also a day after the user explicitly told me on their other account's talk page that they are "not getting compensated for the draft".

@Awise1203: the way the process works is that you summarise what reliable and independent sources have said about a subject, then cite those sources as your references; not first write whatever you want, and then try to find sources that back up what you've written – that's known as editing WP:BACKWARD.

If this series is only starting today, it's perfectly possible that sufficient sources don't yet exist (beyond the broadcaster's pre-launch publicity and things of that ilk, which obviously couldn't be used to establish notability). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:45, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

I'm trying to make a route diagram but the source code isn't really working. PhilDaBirdMan (talk) 21:11, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@PhilDaBirdMan: that's not really an AfC matter; you may wish to ask at the general help desk instead, or on the Template talk:Routemap page (and if you do, please be more specific than "isn't really working"). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:55, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I hope you are well. I need some advice on why my request was rejected. can you provide me more data

Ellpasha (talk) 21:24, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello! Although I am not a official AfC reviewer, I have a few tips. When reading over your article, I noticed that there are not a lot of details, nor have you have placed an Infobox. Looking at this other music-related article, of Jvke, You might want to take some inspiration from here. coding lover, cooldudeseven7 (talk) 21:41, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Ellpasha: Neither of your sources are usable (One is too sparse, the other is pretty much just stuff he says). Infoboxen are the least of your worries; you need to find better sources first. We're looking for in-depth, non-routine, independent-of-Shoja news/review sources that discuss him at length, are written by identifiable authors, and subjected to rigourous editorial oversight and fact-checking. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 21:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

I have citation added. 2402:E000:51D:C1D3:0:0:0:1 (talk) 06:31, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

This draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further.

In the future, it would great if the citations you add actually supported something in the draft, or even just were in any way related to it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:38, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

I've had a look at the draft, the deleted page and other parts.

Unfortunately, I can't see the rules around if someone is notable enough for an article being met here on the current sources avaliable online. Sorry. Mdann52 (talk) 07:05, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Editorharpsweetrolls (talk) 11:15, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

@Editorharpsweetrolls we cannot cite IMDb, as it is user-generated. (see WP:IMDB for more info) We also cannot cite Medium, as it is a blog-hosting service. The draft needs more sources about Poonia himself, not just the movies he acted in, especially when it's a small role like 'Guest'. (see WP:NACTOR) Nothing 'needs' to be accepted. This isn't a race.
