Help me!

{{help me}}

Hello, I am a newbie working on my first article. Have read many pages of instructions, but the lingo has me a bit confused. As I was instructed, I added {{subst:submit}} to the very top of the WIKI SOURCE page and I hope it was in the right place. Can someone confirm for me?

Thanks for any guidance - it's hard to tell if I'm doing things correctly. I know (or think) it can take a few weeks for review, but I'd like to have confidence that I have correctly asked for the review.

I have a new article in DRAFT and I'm ready to release it to the wild. Not sure how to move it from DRAFT to LIVE. Help? Thanks!

Lkamms (talk) 17:35, 20 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

You shouldn't. The idea of draft is to finish the page and get an independent review to approve it and move it, so it does not get deleted the moment it goes live. To add the review banner add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the wikitext source page Ronhjones  (Talk) 20:17, 20 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Lkamms. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Bernard F. Master".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Boomer VialHappy Holidays!Contribs 07:04, 20 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
