12:04:34, 11 August 2014 request for review by Muvese57

edit

My article about Satair Group was deleted. Does that mean that I have to give up on having it Wikipedia, or can I change something? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Muvese57 (talkcontribs) 12:04, 11 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission was not deleted, it was merely declined (not published yet), and it is at Draft:Satair. Even better news is that the reviewer has left advice on that page about the organisation likely being notable by Wikipedia's standards, and advice for you on how to improve the draft to make its notability clear. Once done, resubmit it. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 12:27, 11 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello I am in the process of submitting an entry named Playdale Playgrounds. I was wondering if it was more suitable to be classed as a 'stub' entry rather than a full sized entry. If this is the case please could you tell me the best way to convert it to be a sub?

Thank you

  • @Sianhunter: - The reviewer will make a decision as to what grade quality the article is. I recognise the Playdale name from taking my kids to the swings, so it should have an article. I've assessed it as Start class, meaning there is enough information to inform a reader, but further work is required, such as adding inline citations to sourced content, and fleshing out the company history.

I am trying to write an article on a new subject and every time I try to save it, it gets flagged as potentially having unconstructive edits. What the hell? I wrote it, it hasn't been published yet, so why on earth is it not being saved as a draft? This may be one of the worst processes I have ever encountered for submitting material because there is no way of learning why something is being flagged and the help provided is wholly inadequate.

Are you able to save anything at all on your sandbox page? Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:51, 12 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
