About the Draft:2004 Connecticut State Senate election
So I see you declined the draft because it should be merged into an exisiting article 2004 United States Senate election in Connecticut. The thing is those are two different elections, even though they're in the same state. They shouldn't be merged. The draft article is at the State level and the 2004 United States Senate election in Connecticut is at the federal level. Dillon251992 (talk) 15:50, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- Dillon251992, thanks for letting me know that they're two different elections. I just came across some articles here 2012 United States Senate election in Connecticut / 2012 Connecticut State Senate election and
2018 Connecticut State Senate election / 2018 United States Senate election in Connecticut. You may resubmit your draft. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 15:59, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
- No problem. It can be confusing as they are identical. I should had put a Distinguish on it. I'm glad you were able to just accept the draft without the wait process even though you were ok with me resubmitting it. I thank you for that. Dillon251992 (talk) 20:48, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
About ALDO CARRASCOSO page
Hi,
I would like to ask for further clarifications regarding the secondary sources used in the page draft titled Aldo Carrascoso. Which particular references are not accepted? I've provided quite the references list from local and international media that have been covering his and his company's work. Would gladly accept any help possible. Thank you!
- PioVG14, None of reliable sources talks about subject. If you think the added sources are independently about your submission, please link one here. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 15:46, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
Fico Puricelli, I am currently working on old submissions that are awaiting review. Any unsourced material must not be added to submissions as it leads to submission decline, reject or delay in accepting. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 11:29, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for everything, and sorry if I wrote something out of the question. I still need a way to expand, but it will take a lot of time. Fico Puricelli (talk) 11:42, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Draft
Hi, you recently reviewed draft:Empower Work, I would like to thank you for what is basically an instant review. I have added one more source to the article, and I think it's enough sources to have atleast 2 reliable sources that provide significant coverage to the topic.
https://qz.com/work/1419478/empower-work-lets-anxious-employees-text-counselors-for-free/ Quartz
https://www.fastcompany.com/40499797/can-these-apps-help-you-when-your-hr-department-fails Fast Company
https://techcrunch.com/2018/02/10/hr-has-lost-the-trust-of-employees-here-is-who-has-it-now/ Tech Crunch
https://www.chicagotribune.com/business/careers-finance/sns-volunteering-can-help-gain-skills-and-land-job-20200225-jh27f7zxtrewlm5j3sr67xq2nu-story.html Chicago Tribune
If you think it passes GNG, please be really nitpicky about the tone of the article, I'll appreciate any feedback you give me, thanks!
--Justiyaya 07:55, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- I'm going to now analyze my sources:
- Quartz: Mentioned founder's name 8 times mentioned organization name 6 times, basically the whole article is about it
- Fast Company: Founder's name 2 times, organization name 3 times Whole article is basically about it, provides a criticism section (I should include that in the article)
- Tech Crunch: 6 mentions for organization name, 8 mentions for founder name, section written about it (not the whole article) about 1/4-1/3
- Chicago Tribune (newly added): 3 mentions for founder's name and another 3 for organization name. Article is basically interviews with NGOs and people who volunteered there, about half of the article covers the organization.
- I believe that the article at least has 2-3 reliable sources that provide significant coverage, and maybe 4.
- -- Justiyaya 15:56, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- Justiyaya, if you believe added sources are sufficient to justify notability, you may resubmit it for AfC review. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 16:03, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- Done, thanks! Justiyaya 16:31, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
Reason for your rejection
Hi,
You rejected my draft article on the NACK-Oriented Reliable Multicast (NORM) protocol because "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources."
I modeled my submission on the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) article. In fact, I copied the TCP article and basically started rewriting everything to match the NORM protocol. With the exception of the Background section, all the information about the protocol comes from the IETF Request for Comment document, in this case RFC 5740. I also compared my NORM article to another transport layer protocol article, Stream Control Transmission Protocol, and think my article is much better supported.
Could you please tell me more precisely what you think is lacking? Because again——with the exception of the Background paragraph, which I took great pains to document——everything in there comes right from the RFC, just as TCP, UDP, and SCTP do.
Thanks. Rick Jones (talk) 18:11, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- RichardWJones, I have not rejected your submission. I have declined because;
- "NORM architectural constructs", "NORM message structure", and "Protocol operation" sections are completely unreferenced. Please review WP:V for more information about implementing reliable sources. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:25, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
Either remove any unsourced material or cite with reliable entries. Once your submission is ready for mainspace, you may leave a note on my talk page. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:33, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for the specifics. You do understand, though, that all of those sections are derived from the ur-document, RFC 5740, which was referenced in the very first or second sentence of the article, right? Rick Jones (talk) 18:40, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- What i mean is that the mentioned sections are not cited. Please add reference as you have added to "Background" section. Your submission is cited with 9 references (external links) but rest parts are not cited. For instance, let's say "COVID" have caused many deaths across various countries. But how can one verify this claim unless it is not cited with sources such as books, newspapers, journals etc?. To be more specific, Wikipedian articles must be well-sourced with inline citations like ([1]). Please read WP:IC and WP:CS.
TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:55, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- OK, all the sections that were not cited are now cited and I have resubmitted it. Rick Jones (talk) 19:16, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
- Would you please remove external link from the body text (RFC 5740 Section 4.1) and change them in (inline citations refNORM Common Message Header and Extensions /ref)? TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 19:26, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
Stephen Hogan
Thanks for your rejection on the Stephen Hogan article. Have you even seen his movie Starship Troopers 3: Marauder before calling yourself a cinephile? There are way less notable persons here on Wikipedia who have a page. This is ridiculous. Supermann (talk) 15:17, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- Supermann, he might be a prominent actor, but notability is demonstrated by WP:V and WP:RS. trivial mentions are not enough to satisfy notability. Please refer to WP:NPA for future reference. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 15:24, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- With five major newspaper saying he is an actor and so much filmography, which is incomplete, why do you keep saying it's not verifiable or reliably sourced. This just doesn't make sense. But obviously, he didn't have an Oscars if that's what you mean about being notable. If you compare him to the rest of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Irish_male_film_actors, there are others that should be turned back to draft status by your standard. Please be fair. That's all I am asking. Thanks! Supermann (talk) 18:22, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- If you believe your submission is notable, you may resubmit it for AfC review. Please see WP:COI for future reference. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:52, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
If you think other articles should be moved to draftspace, you may take them to AfD. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:54, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- I don't do lose-lose. I do win-win. It doesn't benefit readers at all by putting him in a draft status. It seems you have a myopic view, with all due respect. There is no conflict of interest whatsoever, btw. Supermann (talk) 22:40, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

- Biographygenius1, It lacks neutral point of view and reads like an advertisement. Also, this submission fails to pass WP:MUSICBIO. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 05:25, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
Re: Afripedia
Dear User TheBirdsShedTears,
Thank you very much for reviewing the draft article I created, Afripedia.
You declined it on the basis of: "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources."
Would you be so kind to specify what resources are unreliable out of those I have listed?
It would be of great help if you specified what are the problematic resources so I can improve the article's quality.
Many thanks and kind regards,

Regarding M. R. Kamala draft wiki page
Draft page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:M._R._Kamala
Thank you for taking time to review the draft. Appreciate the time and effort. I think there is some confusion. Sahitya Akademi Award is different from Karnataka Sahitya Academy award. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karnataka_Sahitya_Academy). This is also a prestigious award given for the Kannada language authors. Govt. of Karnataka confers the award.
To quote English source: https://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/opinion/views/translating-lives-mr-kamala/articleshow/58565412.cms
"These books received several awards including the Karnataka Sahitya Academy book award, Translation Academy award, ..."

- 174.127.232.227, please remove promotional wording as suggested by other reviewers. Once it is done, your submission will be reviewed per added sources. At present, it is not suitable for mainspace. Regards TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 05:29, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you so much for the response. Could you please quote promotional wording? That would really help.
174.127.232.227 (talk) 18:24, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- 174.127.232.227, your draft claims that M. R. Kamala was awarded Karnataka Sahitya Academy Award, but unfortunately there are no such reliable sources that could verify the claim. If you have one, please update you AfC submission. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 19:25, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you. I think this news website is a reliable source. "These books received several awards including the Karnataka Sahitya Academy book award, Translation Academy award, ..." https://bangaloremirror.indiatimes.com/opinion/views/translating-lives-mr-kamala/articleshow/58565412.cms
This source is already present in the wiki.
I added an inline citation linking to this source at the place where I am mentioning Karnataka Sahitya Academy Award in AFC. I have resubmitted the article for review.
Appreciate your time and effort, thanks again!

Solita
Thank you for reviewing Draft:Solita_(company). Your reason was like: "This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies." I'm not sure what you mean by this. So is there some problems in the wording of the article? Or do you think the sources I've used are not good enough for Wikipedia? Cheers Jjanhone (talk) 16:27, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Jjanhone, Sorry for not explaining in detail, but here are some quick suggestions that may require attention.
X is "involved" (participate) in national projects in Finland "like" (such as) X3, a mobile application to track exposure to COVID-19
In March 2015, X established a new business unit, X2, which "specialised for example" in (which focuses on) service design and user experience design.
With "more than" (over) 500 employees
Your submission reads like an essay than presenting it in formal WP:TONE.
There are no forbidden words on Wikipedia, but articles must be written in proper tone.
It is not necessary to implement what I said, you can rewrite your submission according to Wikipedia guidelines and reliable sources.
- Thanks a lot! As I'm not a native English speaker getting the tone of different words is difficult. So your concrete examples were very very helpful! I also asked help from the IRC channel and was adviced to reduce the amount of chapters. So let's see if the article is any better now, I resubmitted it again. :) Jjanhone (talk) 18:22, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
Sefa article
Hi there, thank you for reviewing my article about Sefa! You pointed me to the WP:MUSICBIO. Criterion 12 is - Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or television network. Sefa was featured on SLAM FM, a Dutch national radio station. He had a 30 minute performance and then had an interview on the radio afterwards. The source is in the article, and the fact that he played on the radio station is in the article as well.
For your convenience, here is the source: https://www.slam.nl/video/kijk-dit-is-frenchcore-drpeacock-sefa-in-het-avondcircus
Criterion 7 is - Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city. In this case, Sefa is without a doubt the most prominent artist in the "Euphoric frenchcore" genre as he pioneered it, and is responsible for getting the genre to major established festivals. He is featured as the representative of this style in a film which is on Netflix: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13517474/
Can you please let me know if this information is enough to establish notability? Thanks!
- Hardcontributor, Please review 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 8th, and 10th as well. Musicians must be part of some notable albums and singles. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 20:14, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Rejection of Draft:Zaid Ali
Hello @TheBirdsShedTears:, it's quite some time since I left message for you on my talk page. (Sorry, I forget to ping you there). I've concerns regarding AfC rejection of Draft:Zaid Ali. You declined this draft about Pakistani YouTuber/Vlogger on basis of Vandalism done by Zaid ali007 (born; September 8th, 1997) an indian Mechanical Engineer who studied from Babu Banarasi Das University Lucknow (as what he wrote in vandalism edit), which was eventually reverted by Sasquatch. I think there was a misunderstanding in that rejection, Thank you. ☢️ Radioactive 🎃 (talk) 06:27, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Abdulhaseebatd, I haven't rejected your submission, I have only declined it. If you believe it is sufficient to pass notability, you may resubmit it for AfC review. Regards TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 06:43, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
Rejection of Draft:Bishwa Prakash Sharma
Hi there! Greetings.I've concerns regarding AfC rejection of Draft:Bishwa Prakash Sharma. Please refer to Google search what he is and what Nepali Congress is in reality! I have added reference. He is one of the top 5 notable youth leader of Nepal while Nepali Congress is the current governing party of Nepal, a national party. See article belonging to The Right Honourable PM of Nepal, Sher Bahadur Deuba. Sharama in recent past was President of NSU, the largest student wing of any party in Nepal. Nepali Congress has had national government for more than 10 times in past. It the largest democratic party in Nepal, not a regional/local party as you mentioned in reason for rejection! Please think or confirm before mentioning something you are unknown of. Again, I request you to rethink and verify well before rejecting any draft to be published. Apologies, if I have written wrong but I know you too would be guilt knowing this.110.44.121.41 (talk) 17:37, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- President of a youth wing with no notable campaigns is clearly not notable. Please refer to WP:COI and WP:NPOL for future reference. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 17:42, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- Presidents of NSU whom Sharma succeeded are either Prime Minister of Nepal else Home Minister. Very few of them have been just a minister. You can find this yourself. I have added news of National dalies of Nepal. If Mr. Sharma us not notable, why is his name recurring in recent times in these news papers? Do you have any answer? See, even mayors of Nepal have Wikipedia article. For reference see articles made on Spokesperson of Governing parties of Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, etc. I again request you not to take much notability proof from me. Just see recurring news articles on Google from National Dalies of Nepal and his interviews in National TV channels of Nepal. And latest is of today. Just here:-[1] And please see the reactions of people, views in few hours of publishing. I again request you to see whose interviews are present in this series. All are the top notable leaders else present or former ministers/PMs. By the way which country do you belong to? Second point of WP:NPOL says:-Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage. Still Sharma is National political figure.110.44.121.41 (talk) 18:27, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
- If you find non-notable political spokesperson-related articles on Wikipedia (same as your draft), please find one a such article and I would appreciate you for this effort. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 18:58, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
Also, significant coverage refers to reliable sources that independently discuss the subject in detail. See trivial mentions. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 19:03, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

In this draft, I have cited every sentence in all paragraphs. Why should I unnecessarily add more citations? Do I need to replace the citations?
Excellenc1📞 13:41, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- Some of its parts are cited with party's own website. Another source media-web.fr appears potentially unreliable. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 13:45, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
Then what about this article on Independent Ecological Alliance? It has only two citations, where one is from the party's own site. If that can be an article, why not mine? Excellenc1📞 14:17, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
- I don't know anything about Independent Ecological Alliance's article. I am talking about you AfC submission. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 14:19, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
I am giving the article as an example that the article has only two citations, which might look sufficient for its size but considering that one is from its party's site itself, it has only one citation. So in that comparison, in my draft, I have 8 citations: 7 independent sites and 1 party's own site. (Citation number 2 and 3 is of another organisation named France Audacieuse, not to be confused with the party's site) Isn't that ok? Excellenc1📞 14:26, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

Clarification on rejection for Royal Ambarrukmo
Hello TheBirdsShedTears,
I understand that you have recently rejected my draft for Draft:Royal Ambarrukmo having tagged it as "not adequately supported by reliable sources".
I was wondering if I could get a further clarification on your decision?
I am asking this because the sources I have referred to included articles from National Newspapers, a journal article from a University Database, as well as articles from the local government and the Indonesian Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology. Only one of the sources are considered primary (website of the hotel) and that was used to cite basic information. Several of the sources are in Indonesian, but they are translatable via translating engines like google translate. As an example, I have inputted the sources onto Google Translate, and they were translated successfully without much trouble.
I just would like to request further clarification, as it is in my honest belief that apart from one source, all the others are verifiable and independent of the organisation/hotel in question.
Many thanks

Draft:EC1 Science and Technology Center in Łódź
Hello, I put some new references from other sources than website of EC1. There are very few information of EC1 Science and Technology Center in english, so I put all I was able to find. What I need to do, to publish this draft in the proper way?

, and b) nominate it for WP:G12 deletion (which is usually part of the package of declining). Primefac (talk) 14:08, 18 July 2021 (UTC) (please ping on reply)
- Primefac, Thank you for letting me know about this package of declining. Actually, I wasn't sure how to deal with such AfC submissions, and I put a comment instead without taking any action such "decline" or nominating it for G12. Thanks TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 14:26, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Hey there, on that races com au site, I guess it seems like a news site to me because they have offices ([2]) and journalistic staff ([3]). Then again they have a big link to "Betting Agencies Australia" on their page, probably not a good sign...what do you think? --Cerebellum (talk) 10:21, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
- Cerebellum, Thank you for taking the time to explain about this site more efficiently. It appears, Races com.au staff members are also writing for Muck Rack 1, 2, 3. I believe Races com.au is a reliable news portal. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 10:50, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Abhijit Ashok Paul's article can be reconsidered
Abhijit Ashok Paul is a famous Indian director, And he has received National Awards among many films, Am I won the first place award in India, Then I don't understand why he is not going to keep Wikipedia, Please explain to me. And besides, he has a lot more national news that I didn't feel the need to give in the article. GBPrakashani (talk) 10:46, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
- GBPrakashani, which awards? He has not been nominated for any national award than SRK's ghost story competition and Inlaks award, both of which are non-notable awards. Also, there is no significant coverage about him. Please read WP:FILMMAKER. He has not created notable films than Am I, which is not sufficient to establish notability. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 11:05, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
Sorry sir, its my mistake, i wanted to say National level award. He has got last year a national level award from NFDC & MINISTEY OF I&B. Film name is 'Am I' GBPrakashani (talk) 11:43, 20 July 2021 (UTC) Thanking You For Your valuable time and Fruitful Words.
- He has created only one film. And Wikipedia guidelines says,
The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
. If it is accepted, i am sure it will be taken to AfD. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 11:56, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi There,
This is my first time writing a Wikipedia page and I was hoping to get more specifics of why the page is being declined and some pointers on how I can improve it and make a quality publishable material.
Appreciate the help.

Terms such as "understanding of morality", "Dino was responsible for completing....", " truly supportive and inspirational" etc. must not be added. Read more on WP:NPOV and WP:TONE.

Hello TheBirdsShedTears,
I saw you reviewed my draft for the article of Moritz Löhner and declined it because of copy paste text. Is it because of the topic "SimRacing Esports Career"? I think that might be an issue as it's the same text as on another website that I wrote myself about him. Even if I wrote that text do I still need to write it different here although it's coming from the same person?
Cheers and thanks for any help!

Request on 07:17:58, 22 July 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Hollerme
I was hoping the reasons for rejection could be reconsidered, as the reason "the sources cited to be Filmography with reliable sources is needed to demonstrate notability" appear to be invalid when taking into account the vast majority of sources, which include South China Morning Post (one of the main national papers in Asia), Variety (the main film trade magazine in the US), Screen International (one of the biggest trade papers in the UK), InvestHK (the creative division of the Hong Kong government), China Press (a major paper in Asia), Hong Kong Trade Development Council (a government division in Hong Kong), and BrightTalk (again reputable). The use of longstanding reputable national and international newspapers, and government entities should fit the definition of "reliable sources".
Also the 2nd point "Also, multiple independent reliable sources are required to support claims such as how the director, producer "developed high concept stories"" is wrong because the entry does not discuss "how" high concept stories are developed. Instead the entry states that the subject formed a company "to develop high concept stories" which is information directly stated by the subject in interviews, and the company's mission statement.

Reasons for your rejection for Anil Pallala
Hello TheBirdsShedTears, I'd like to thank you for reviewing the Anil Pallala . There is a deletion tag on this page, I would like to know the reason because even after giving a reliable citation link to this article and improving the article. Whatever information I have updated to this article.

Rejection of draft
Hi. I see you have rejected the Draft:Federation of Resistance Societies of the Spanish Region with the stated reason that Wikipedia is not a reliable source. I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean by this, as none of the sources listed refer to Wikipedia, there are three books cited on the matter, with inline citations for two of them. Are three separate books on the matter not enough? Because I can provide more if not. Thanks. --Grnrchst (talk) 11:59, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Rodolfo Comerio
Hi, I saw you reviewed my draft for the page of the company Rodolfo Comerio and declined it because of WP:BOMBARDMENT. The previous reviewer told me that it was necessary to add a source at the end of each sentence and that's what I did. The reviewer told me that I could also repeat the same source multiple times. The article already exists on Italian Wikipedia with the same sources but I don't have the possibility to make a translation directly. However it is important for us to have a page also in English so I would like to understand how can I improve my article to get it approved. Thank you very much!!
- Alessia Stocco, CITKILL issue in "Recent developments and awards" section needs to be fixed. Adding sources like "calenders in 2016[25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33] [34] [35]", since 2017[40] [41] [42] [43] [44], companies[16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] etc. is clearly a NOTBOMB. 1-2 refs. are sufficient per claim. For instance, "Example was born in 19xx"[1]". Now loading this part with too many refs like "Example was born in 19xx"[1][2][3][4][4]' is redundant. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 13:25, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi, thank you very much I understand. I have corrected the article taking into account your advice. I have eliminated some sources to make the text less redundant. I hope it now meets Wikipedia's publication criteria. Thank you again for the suggestions. Alessia
Hello, TheBirdsShedTears, we have an Indian local language(Assamese) weekly newspaper, which already got registered. The newspaper registered by RNI(Registrar of newspapers for India) and UDYAM.

Concerning Draft of Amir Ghavidel
Just wanted to thank you for your read. It is a fair comment that you made. I will make it neutral and use no peacock terms. Just a question: Does "Pioneer" count as a peacock term? Cause it is common knowledge in Iran that he is a pioneer filmmaker in Iranian modern cinema. A backstory: After the Iranian revolution, cinema was considered taboo and people burned movie theaters. Ghavidel and some others made movies that stopped these violent activites by convincing the public that cinema is not the problem. They saved the industry. Thanks again for your help. Ngm 7 (talk) 14:26, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

- Plicabelles, the first 9 sources added in submission are book databases, shopping sites, and blogs. You need to go through submission and replace unreliable sources with reliable sources.

Alessando Grego
Thank you for your revision of Alessandro Grego page. I am very sorry that it did not met the necessary criteria and I will work on it for improvement. In your opinion, if the article is shortened and only a few well sourced elements are left, would it do? Thanks, Cormarer (talk) 05:43, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- Cormarer, atleast 3 great sources are required to demonstrate notability. Any unsourced material must be either removed or cited with reliable entries. In case, sources are not available for specific content/parts of submission, you may remove it. Since your submission is about a musician, please try to add discography with reliable entries. A good lead section, career, and discography should be added. Notability is not determined by the length of article, but it is demonstrated by reliable sources. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 05:57, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for the reply. Many of the references are articles on newspapers or on independent web sites (e.g. reviews of concerts). The composer and his work are mentioned by one of the most influential Italian astrophysicist (Margherita Hack) and this is referenced. Are these not acceptable?

Hi there,
Thanks a lot for your time to review my article about Jalaledin Moayerian, the Iranian Makeup Artist.
As per your comment, I have been advised to provide third-party sources such as newspapers, books, magazines (with editorial insights) to prove notability. For your information the following Cite provided in my article was Editorial.[4]
May I ask your further advice.
Thanks --Aria Moayerian (talk) 16:29, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Rejection for Kozlov Club draft
Hello!
Rejecting my drift, you said "Nearly a c-class draft cited with one single source which is also club's own website. You will need to add multiple reliable sources such as newspapers, books, magazines etc. to satisfy notability." Clear. Still, the draft speaks of Russian subject and is, in fact, almost the translation of existing Russian wikipedia page of a subject, provided with dozens of sources. All of them in original Russian. And I reckon there are almost no sources/references in English about the subject. What should i do in this case, to repeat/copy the same sources (in Russian for English page)? Or leave the subject withour English wikipedia page just because it's so happened nobody's writing about it in certain language?
- Lnogradski, please provide multiple independent reliable sources to satisfy notability. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 11:41, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

BioFoodLab Draft
I have to take serious issue with your reasoning for the rejection of this article and the comment you left regarding SIGCOV. The previous editor -- and the editors before him -- stated that the subject has SIGCOV. All their requests have been made and the previous editor said the article was ready for publication after his and the other editors' editing requests were met. Your comment leads me to believe that you did not check the references carefully. The references are -- with the exception of one single article -- about the company and not the founder. The stories do discuss the founder in detail, but that is because the company is clearly using the founder's background as part of its marketing and business development strategy. However, this "founder coverage" accounts for only a small percentage of any of these references. Please see the below descriptions of the links for reference:
1. The first link clarifies basic information about the company and its number of employees. 2. The CNN video is dedicated entirely to the company but also has information about the founder's background. 3. The Intellnews story is about the company and its trajectory, but also discusses the founder's background. 4. The Moscow Times article is dedicated entirely to the company. 5. The Vedomisti article is dedicated entirely to the company. 6. The VC.RU article is about the founder's experience building the company from a startup into a large company, and the company's trials and tribulations, and its growth, along the way. VC is a leading site in Russia dedicated to successful startups. 7. A report ranking the company. 8. The Kommersant story is a feature story about the company's trajectory from startup to successful corporation. 9. Yes, this piece is dedicated to the founder. 10. This entire TV show is dedicated to the company. 11. Russian State website mentioning the company. AND THESE ARE NEW: 12. A news story dedicated to the company. 13. A securities filing dedicated to the company. 14. A news story dedicated to the company.
I have added the last three articles as well about the company subsequent to your rejection.
As I mentioned to the previous editor, I am and have been a business and finance news editor for most of my adult life. I am able to differentiate between "company" and "founder" coverage. Additionally, as I noted previously, the company is the leader in Russia and the region producing healthy foods and snacks, plant-based products and now plant-based meat. It is one of the best-known brands in the country and, hence, is deserving of a Wikipedia page.

JohannesburgBlues, If you believe I made a mistake and declined your AfC submission without looking into sources, you may express your concern at WP:AFCHD than making false claims towards SIGCOV for this revision. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 08:21, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
I am not making false claims. If I am making false claims, so are the previous editors. I think you did not read it at all. Thanks for your help. JohannesburgBlues (talk) 11:59, 28 July 2021 (UTC)JohannesburgBlues
- JohannesburgBlues, Can you please link 3 sources here so that I can better understand what I missed? Pick 3 best reference as presented in this revision TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:06, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
Sure.
Here is the TV show about the company. I am sending two links, because the first might not open in your location:
1 https://boss.friday.ru/videos/vipuski/boss4-6?order=direct AND https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zrii83JuBQ
2 CNN Coverage https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=10155128115313067
3 Moscow Times Feature https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2020/11/12/russian-health-food-startup-soars-during-pandemic-a72008
4 Intellinews https://www.intellinews.com/former-model-s-biofood-bars-are-the-new-face-of-russia-s-health-food-industry-126803
The others as well.
I understand the confusion. Everyone talks about her background in the beginning of the stories (and many times in the headlines) because the journalists obviously think it is intriguing, but the coverage is actually about the company's success story.
JohannesburgBlues (talk) 12:14, 28 July 2021 (UTC)JohannesburgBlues
- JohannesburgBlues, Event or program between its members[8]
This video shows and talks about head of the company[9]
This is an interview alongside company introduction[10]
This one looks OK[11]
This coverage is focused on model[12]. Please read WP:IS. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:35, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
I see where you are coming from with the Intellinews piece. I just reread it.
Regarding the TV show, it is actually about the company, and what it takes to run the company. I speak Russian. Here is the official description of the episode at that link from Russian (Google Translation). In the episode, a novice entrepreneur takes the helm of BioFoodLab, and the CEO of BioFoodLab takes the helm of a similar company, which is just a startup.
===In the new episode of the show "Now I'm the Boss!" we will swap the leaders of companies specializing in healthy nutrition for 3 days. Elena Shifrina is the founder of BITE, a company that was a small startup 8 years ago, and now its turnover reaches 3 billion rubles a year. BITE is rightfully considered one of the world leaders in the production of healthy bars. In Bronnitsy near Moscow, Elena will head a small company "Snack No. 1" for 3 days and introduce world standards of work there: -will carry out a large-scale rebranding; - will make office renovation; - will agree with the capital retailer about the distribution of the company's products.
Her place at this time will be taken by Konstantin Romankov, a novice entrepreneur who will try to pump an already successful company. What will come of this? Find out in the new episode of the show "Now I'm the Boss!"===
The CNN link on Facebook does have an interview, but this CNN program is not about founders, it is about successful companies that take their products international. That is the specific remit of the program.
I agree on the Moscow Times one.
In any case, I appreciate you having a look at all this. Thanks!

- JohannesburgBlues, I don't think they are independent sources except this. You will need to provide only 3 better sources like TheMoscowTimes. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:56, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
They are 100 percent independent. I don't think it is possible to pay off CNN :) or a TV channel such as the one listed. In any case, I did add a few more links after your review, and will try to add some more.
JohannesburgBlues (talk) 14:56, 28 July 2021 (UTC)JohannesburgBlues
- JohannesburgBlues, If you believe it is ready, you may resubmit it. Also, your "100%" claim seems not valid. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 15:02, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
Well, of course, no one can ever know. I just find it hard to believe that you can pay for coverage on CNN. :) JohannesburgBlues (talk) 15:11, 28 July 2021 (UTC)JohannesburgBlues
- JohannesburgBlues, We should read WP:NCORP than presenting your opinions regarding a draft which is possibly an WP:UPE as well as WP:COI. Read the comments of reviewers as well and address them accordingly. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 15:24, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi. There is no conflict of interest or paid editing. I have addressed this question with a previous editor. I understand that there have been many issues in the past with companies having pages that are not deserving of them. This is not the case here and any solid business or finance editor with experience in the segment, or the region, can attest to that fact. We obviously don't agree on certain points here, but I appreciate your time. Thanks. JohannesburgBlues (talk) 15:40, 28 July 2021 (UTC)JohannesburgBlues
Can you take another look at the history section? I added the background because there wasn't anything to explain how he came about. The Vice article does talk about his other YouTuber ventures, so I cut out the names of those channels. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 14:32, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

Dear TheBirdsShedTears thank you for reviewing the article S. V. C. Aiya. This was my first article and I am feeling quite encouraged to continue contributing with renewed vigor to the wiki knowledgebase. I noticed your profile. it is just so amazing! I hope to become like you some day! Peace.
- Oria 6, Thank you for your kind response. Wikipedia knowledge-base needs expansion with notable entries, and I hope you will continue to edit constructively. Cheers and happy editing. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 16:40, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

Request on 21:31:49, 28 July 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by NataliaFrancesca
HI TBST , i am really struggling to write this page, it has been rejected 10 times. Can you help at all ? I really like your page btw, you sound mysterious . I am a huge fan of Talia Dean and i want to create a wiki for her. I have tried and tried but it is unsuccessful
NataliaFrancesca (talk) 21:31, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- NataliaFrancesca, Your topic fails to satisfy WP:NSINGER, therefore, you need to provide 3 reliable sources with in-depth coverage about Talia Dean to satisfy WP:GNG. Thank you and happy editing. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 03:39, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
HI Again TBST , I do not understand why my sources are unreliable ? I checked and NME and BBC are considered reliable sources.
She is a famous lady in the UK it is very confusing, please assist
- NataliaFrancesca, BBC is definitely a reliable source. But unfortunately, it talks about her health issues and very little about her career. TellyMix source is talking about her television music competition. Music competitions contribute very little to notability. NME source is saying "Talia Dean is lead singer of King’s Daughters" (I think a musical group).
PinkNews seems talking about her participation in X Factor competition show. A musician (see WP:MUSICBIO) is presumed notable "if they meet at least one of the following criteria":
1. Has received multiple independent coverage in reliable sources. (independent sources generally discuss the subject in detail without influence of other topics. See WP:IS).
2. Has won/nominated notable award(s).
3. Has made significant contribution to music.
Please read WP:MUSICBIO for detailed information.
However, due to lack of resources in some countries like (Burundi, Somalia, Central Africa, Niger etc.), media is not much active and as a result, notable topics receive very less media attention. Therefore, we accept or decline draft by determining the position of the topic. (please note this is not a Wikipedia guideline, but sometimes, we accept notable articles such as politicians, scientists etc. using our own knowledge. I have not accepted any such article till date). As you know, the UK is a developed country, and the media is extensively writing about different topics. A UK based famous personalities are likely to receives widespread media attention.
You will need to provide only WP:THREE sources with significant coverage in reliable sources such as newspapers, books, magazines etc. Thank you and happy editing. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 12:49, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you TBST, would they consider "My London" or "Surrey Live" as a reliable news source. It tells me Dailey express is a no ??
for example ?? https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-news/oxshott-musician-talia-dean-releases-19832396
Talia Dean has been number 1 in the charts twice this year. sorry to disturb you again
- NataliaFrancesca, I seems My London as well as Surrey Live are reliable sources. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 00:51, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
Mara Karlin
Hello - I just wanted to ask about your recent denial of my new page on Mara Karlin. You suggested that I highlight her role in international affairs at the Pentagon. I am a little confused because I have that in the top section and explain how she is currently the acting assistant secretary of defense for international affairs. Joe Biden has nominated her for a new position in the Pentagon of equal stature.
I am confused why she is not considered notable. Every other nominated assistant secretary of defense has a wiki page. In fact, if you look at this [page], she's the only one listed without one. I am new to Wikipedia and tried to create a page for her there because she seemed like she would merit one based on the fact that everyone else who received a similar nomination has one. If there's something I'm missing, I would definitely appreciate your feedback.
Thanks! -- @Wghgljsj
- Wghgljsj, You have not mentioned that
she advises the Secretary of Defense on defense policies relating to the more than 145 countries in the Middle East etc
. Also, you have not mentioned anything about her previous office or roles. TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 03:09, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your feedback! Still getting the hang of this. Just updated. --Wghgljsj (talk) 03:19, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
- Wghgljsj, Please don't copy paste. You need to write this in your own words. Thanks TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 03:22, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
