The 2018 Big Ten football season article hasn't been moved to main space yet. 68.102.39.189 (talk) 02:01, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you read the review (in the prominent pink box) it should be clear why it will not be moved in its current state. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:17, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As stated in the template, there are 2615 other drafts in the queue. It will probably take several months for yours to be reviewed, although the process is somewhat random. – Joe (talk) 16:57, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why are you in such a hurry? 2018 has not even started yet. See WP:NODEADLINE Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:21, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Just to confirm as per the current references, if the subject does not seem to have much significant coverage in secondary sources, will it still be eligible to be merged in any industry specific existing article, now that it cannot have an article of its own at this time. Skdwived (talk) 02:41, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Skdwived. Maybe. The notability guidelines determine whether a topic should have its own article, but do not generally determine the content of articles. One exception is lists, which often use notability as one of the selection criteria, see WP:LISTCRITERIA. The factors more likely to figure in the suitability of a merger are relevance, weight, and promotionalism. Questions about an existing article are beyond the scope of Articles for creation, and should be asked on that article's talk page. --Worldbruce (talk) 07:06, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

So I submitted my draft for review but cannot find how to change the name of the Title of my article. It is Dragline Manure Pumping but in researching, Draghose Manure Application is more accurate. I changed the article headings accordingly but am unable to change the very top, title of the article, what comes up when it is searched.

Hi Webcopy. In Wikipedia, renaming a page is done by moving it. In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). There's no great urgency for the title to be changed. If and when the draft is accepted, the reviewer will move it, and it can always be moved again after publication. --Worldbruce (talk) 23:44, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I started this page before some time ago but was not so familiar with wikipedia then. Paul Crichton is a public person who should be on wikipedia. Please help finish his page. I would like to add his numerous publications and readings on this page. I would be very grateful. And I could not finde the button "save changes". Thank you - regards - Christl

  Note: I moved the page from articlespace to draftspace, at Draft:Paul Crichton (psychiatrist). JTP (talk • contribs) 17:04, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
and it has now been deleted as a copyright violation. Maproom (talk) 08:50, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 21:51:47, 16 December 2017 for assistance on AfC submission by Sunshine233

I am trying to create an article about the 9 Epiphanies and I do not know how to include the sources to meet wiki standards. I need help with the sources and I would like to include a few photos in my article as well. This is my first contribution to wiki and I am excited to post it! Thank you for all of your help.

What are the sources? They will need to be reliable, to be independent of the subject, and to have been published, if they are to establish that the subject is notable enough to justify the existence of a Wikipedia article. Maproom (talk) 22:43, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
