April 7

edit

My photograph seems to be of larger size and also correct formatting of Para/Lines may kindly be seen or I presume, it will be done. Thanks and regards,Rashmi2012 (talk) 07:02, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed the formatting issues. Good start, but the submission needs a little expansion. Pol430 talk to me 08:30, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lost work on Foraminoplasty

edit

Hello Noleover I have started again from scratch with a new submission for Foraminoplsty. The system asked me to log out and then re log in but now I can not find my latest effort - I do hope that it is not all lost. Please could you guide me back to my handy work. --Missurgeon (talk) 08:01, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The only submission you have made any edits to from your account is: Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Foraminoplasty. Did you create the new submission while logged out? If so, log out again and then check your IP contributions. Pol430 talk to me 08:29, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article cited as copied is by the same person as this article - wanted to put it on wikipedia as well. Is this not possible? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Esther.dugdale (talkcontribs) 10:28, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, unless the copyright holder releases the text to Wikipedia—see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more info. Even if they did this, the submission is still unsuitable because it amounts to original research. Unless the information can be attributed to reliable sources to ensure compliance with the verifiability policy. Pol430 talk to me 17:45, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Are my citations appropriate in the biography page? [[Wikipedia talk:Articles for Creation/biography ] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Seefoamdream (talkcontribs) 16:01, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, your submission was declined because both source are primary, or not independent. This means that they can't be sued to establish notability, since the come from the artist herself. Please add reliable, independent sources and resubmit. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 18:49, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
