02:04, 22 February 2024 review of submission by Pitambar Yadav(Google) edit

Why is it being rejected multiple times while other villages have been added by others in similar way tooo Pitambar Yadav(Google) (talk) 02:04, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:WAX. Basically, since in the past, Wikipedia has hosted articles which nowadays wouldn't fit with our guidelines, those shouldn't be used to try to make the case that another article should exist. Firstly, as stated in the draft, large portions of it are unsourced. Additionally, it reads like a promo for the village, which Wikipedia is not. Flux55 (my talk page) 02:18, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Pitambar Yadav(Google) If you want to use other articles as a model or example, use those that are classified as good articles, which have been checked by the community and are examples of good work.
What is the nature of the conflicts of interest you declared? Are you employed by Google? 331dot (talk) 08:58, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why this is not approving ? please guide Abhilashsnair (talk) 09:36, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Abhilashsnair: for the reasons given in the decline notices – did you read them at all? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:56, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

12:14, 22 February 2024 review of submission by Nritya02 edit

I have added all the factual information to make Wikipedia readers aware of the musical artist, Rapper Chauhan. If you find anything inappropriate, you can rectify and get the Wikipedia article published. Nritya02 (talk) 12:14, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Nritya02: you don't ask a question, but this draft (such as it is) is completely unreferenced with no evidence of notability. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:27, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Here are the references: https://nagpuroranges.com/knowing-all-this-about-rapper-chauhan-will-set-your-heart-racing/

There is a lot about him on Google. If you need more references, I can provide them. Nritya02 (talk) 12:40, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You will need to add them to the draft, nobody else will do it for you and please note that interviews are not independent sources. Theroadislong (talk) 12:50, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

12:34, 22 February 2024 review of submission by 92.186.12.128 edit

The reason given for declining this article is "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources." We have references here from the Wall Street Journal, Fox News, CNN, NPR, Forbes, and several others.

I'm not sure how much more reliable third-party sources we could get.

Sorry, am I missing something? I really have no idea how to make this better.

Thank you for your help. 92.186.12.128 (talk) 12:34, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is quite a lot of unreferenced information, eg. the 'Early Life and Education' and 'Personal Life' section have no citations at all.
The reviewer is also saying that notability has not been demonstrated, and better sources are needed. For that, it's not enough that the sources are reliable, they need to fully meet the WP:GNG standard. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:43, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

14:52, 22 February 2024 review of submission by MintSpiral edit

This article keeps getting rejected for "not meeting notability requirements", but the artist has 2 albums published with an established label and therefore should be eligible. I believe there are also sufficient reputable sources to back up claims, but I have just added some more (including sources like Sirus XM and Warner Music). Can someone please tell me know I can improve this page to get it approved? The vague feedback left by reviewers is not helping much. MintSpiral (talk) 14:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It has been declined not rejected, some of your sources are not independent, for example interviews and Instagram. `Theroadislong (talk)

16:10, 22 February 2024 review of submission by 2.189.18.111 edit

Hi Dear

The page I have created is facing various issues. I wanted to use your experience and solve these problems so that I can create a page for one of the emerging artists of Iranian cinema who has achieved many national and international successes. And has had many experiences in doing artistic and cultural works. I am trying to help introduce a part of Iranian art and culture.

Please help me in this.. 2.189.18.111 (talk) 16:10, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This draft has several issues, as you say. The most serious is lack of evidence that the subject is notable. The contents are also almost entirely unreferenced, which is particularly problematic in an article on a living person. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:18, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
His work has been referenced in reliable sources and news sites, both in Persian sources and in international sources, he has won short and documentary film awards in several international festivals and has been a judge in several international film festivals.
Links to movies and news are also given.
Please help spread this page 2.189.18.111 (talk) 16:59, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Inline external links, which the draft is riddled with throughout, are not referencing; in fact, they aren't even allowed. What we need to see is proper references with inline citations and footnotes linking to the sources. See WP:REFB for advice. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:16, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

17:30, 22 February 2024 review of submission by Mosy O'Ginni edit

The article was reviewed and rejected. Mosy O'Ginni (talk) 17:30, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was declined, not rejected. 331dot (talk) 22:26, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

21:28, 22 February 2024 review of submission by 12DionneJ edit

Draft:Toyota G Transmission, Draft:Toyota TX-Series Transmission Draft:Toyota H-Series Transmission These 4 articles have been created by me to add context and more information to the Transmissions listed in the article "List of Toyota transmissions".

They have been repeatedly denied approval based on the source not being "reliable" when I have noted the source as the Toyota, the company that created these transmissions and from where I have acquired the noted info as such.

They have also been declined for not meeting "notability" standards. I believe the articles fall under the rules pertaining to the "Notability guidelines do not apply to content within articles or lists" and the "Manual of Styles/Lists:Purposes of Lists" guidelines.

I'm simply building off of an existing list that has been compiled for the Toyota community over the past two decades.

Please approve these articles. Thank You 12DionneJ (talk) 21:28, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

12DionneJ The template can only accommodate one draft title at a time, I've fixed this. 331dot (talk) 22:01, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia articles summarize what independent reliable sources say about a topic. Wikipedia is not interested in what Toyota says about its own products. This information may be better suited on alternative outlets. 331dot (talk) 22:06, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's not a Toyota commentary on their own products. I believe you're misinterpreting the articles and why they exist. They are informational and are encyclopedic in nature. 12DionneJ (talk) 22:27, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't say it was commentary. Toyota is a primary source for information on its own products; Wikipedia summarizes secondary sources. Wikipedia is not a mere database of information. 331dot (talk) 22:30, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It has been for the previous two decades this info has been compiled. What harm is the doing by staying on the site? Zero. 12DionneJ (talk) 22:37, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, none of those alternative outlets are able to structure the info provided in an affective and easily digestible manner compared to Wikipedia. 12DionneJ (talk) 22:42, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
WP:NOHARM is a poor argument that would mean nothing could be removed from Wikipedia.
I'm sure there is some website somewhere on this planet that can host this information, or you could create your own.(perhaps start a Fandom wiki) Perhaps you could contact Toyota and ask if you could use their website. 331dot (talk) 22:57, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm a Toyota Master Tech. I already have access to their website. This is for the majority of the community that doesn't have access. What's the point of having wiki pages for vehicles then? These pages are simply details regarding what transmission a vehicle is equipped with. 12DionneJ (talk) 14:39, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@12DionneJ: Wikipedia doesn't aim to have an article on every imaginable topic, but rather on topics which are notable. Demonstrate notability by citing the required source, and we can then publish the article. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:46, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The article falls under the rules pertaining to the "Notability guidelines do not apply to content within articles or lists" and the "Manual of Styles/Lists:Purposes of Lists" guidelines. 12DionneJ (talk) 14:49, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@12DionneJ: says who? If you wish to wikilawyer this through, you need to clearly cite specific policy grounds.
According to my interpretation, this is not a list-type article; it is an article (draft) on a product line, which includes, and the draft therefore necessarily covers, a number of individual products. Normal notability requirements would still apply. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:56, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is directly from the list "List of Toyota Transmissions". This simply provides more details about them. 12DionneJ (talk) 15:02, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@12DionneJ: I'm not sure how that's relevant?
Anyway, you now have autoconfirmed status, so you can technically publish these drafts yourself. I wouldn't recommend it, as they've been declined for a reason, and new page patrol is unlikely to let them remain published for long. But you clearly are unwilling to take advice on this, so you must do what you must do. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:10, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You must be dense. "I'm not sure how that's relevant?" Well when you're saying it has nothing to do with a list, me telling you which list it's in regards to is absolutely relevant. lmfao 12DionneJ (talk) 15:14, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@12DionneJ: if you could avoid the insults, I'd appreciate it.
I think we're done here. Have a nice day. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:17, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You should probably think before you speak then. 12DionneJ (talk) 15:19, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
