Venuvemula (talk) 05:45, 31 January 2018 (UTC) Alleti Maheshwar Reddy Sir is an Ex- MLA of our nirmal constitution, and wiki is not allowing me to create a page Please help[reply]

Hi Venuvemula. To set the context, I added a lead section for you, citing an independent source. Try to find another independent reliable source or two (think magazines and newspapers), the bulk of any article should be based on such sources. Remove any content for which you cannot cite a source. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:52, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide specific details as to why my article hasn't been accepted, though it contained unbiased information. How many citations are required at the least, for an article? Also, does every single fact need to be referenced? Article submitted has been rejected and I would require assistance on exact detailing to correct /add.

Inchara Jaganath - First, I've combined your two queries into one. Second, as the reviewer indicated, the draft reads like an advertisement, both in tone and in content. Third, it is very poorly sourced. There are only two, one a Times of India article, which will do, and one a Googlemaps link, which doesn't support anything in the article. If you want the draft accepted, you'll need to take out the promotional language and find evidence of significant coverage of the company from a range of reliable, independent sources. Hope this helps. KJP1 (talk) 16:17, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, everyone! I don't very sure that is Long Yang notable enough for Wikipedia or not. Because Long Yang is a famous host on CCTV and she hosts a very notable program. But there isn't many sources about her that meets WP:42. Give me some suggestions, please! ~Omega68537(talk)

What is the exact reason for declining the draft Fort Cobb Broxton Mustangs? ClutchKid612 (talk) 15:31, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

ClutchKid612 - The reviewing editor has very clearly set out what the issue is - the draft has no sources. Without reference to reliable, third-party sources, the draft can't establish Notability nor can the content be Verified. Hope this helps. KJP1 (talk) 16:04, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I want you to help me why my submission has been declined. MABA 16:37, 31 January 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by MABApedia (talk • contribs)

Hi MABApedia. See Help:Introduction to referencing/1 and Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. When you cite a source, that source should support the text where it is cited. For example, www.bbc.co.uk/mediaaction should confirm the statement "is a Tunisian independent journalist certified by BBC Media Action". It doesn't confirm that; it doesn't say anything about MABA.
Also, the draft needs sources that contain significant coverage about MABA's life and work. Those sources need to be reliable and independent of MABA. If no such sources exist, then MABA is not a suitable topic for Wikipedia. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:32, 2 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
