18:47:35, 3 March 2018 review of submission by Bbarmadillo

edit

Hi. Please make suggestions for improving Arctic Zero article. The submission was declined by TeaDrinker. I made a substantial rewrite to the article removing possibly promotional info. I wonder if it enough or not. If not, how can I improve the article further? Disclosure: this article is a (properly stated) COI contribution. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 18:47, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bbarmadillo - My suggestion is that it doesn't appear on here, which is why I've tagged it for Speedy Deletion. It's straightforward, paid, advertising of the kind we absolutely don't need. KJP1 (talk) 20:42, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
KJP1 please tell how is it different from the articles about other ice cream/dessert brands like Halo Top Creamery or Breyers. Also, do you assume that AP, Reuters and Inc. and Washington Post coverage is paid? I would really appreciate if you tell me how to improve it in the right direction. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 20:46, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Bbarmadillo - I've told you the right direction - it doesn't belong here. KJP1 (talk) 20:48, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
KJP1 so the pages for the 2 above mentioned brands should be deleted as well? -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 20:52, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Bbarmadillo - Wikipedia:Other stuff exists. KJP1 (talk) 21:08, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
KJP1 I know this, thank you. Will you also nominate above mentioned articles for the speedy deletion on the same grounds? -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:14, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The Halo Top Creamery article was extremely promotional I have hacked it back a bit, thanks for bringing it to our notice. Theroadislong (talk) 21:16, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Theroadislong you are welcome. Snickers is another extremely promotional article. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:22, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
But my question remains. I don't see why Halo Top Creamery or Breyers exist and Arctic Zero should not. Technically, Halo Top appeared after Arctic Zero (a younger brand). Also I was not even given time to make edits to edit the article. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:29, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The Halo Top Creamery article also appears to have been an undisclosed paid editing job. Theroadislong (talk) 21:34, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
What about all the other ice-cream brands? I am not joking, by the way. Is this category a total promotion? -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:37, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You came here asking for advice. You got it. Having faux debates with paid editors, when in fact we understand each others' positions perfectly well, isn't a productive use of my time. KJP1 (talk) 21:38, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Bbarmadillo, do it then. You're a registered user, go nominate them for deletion if you think they aren't notable. jcc (tea and biscuits) 21:38, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Jcc that would be against my concept of editing Wikipedia. I am an inclusionist. If I see any value in the content, I always try to improve the content or leave the comment at the Talk page with the improvement suggestions. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:46, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 18:54:04, 3 March 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by FerryBrewery

edit

I have set up a user page for Ferry Brewery but it was denied for no references. I don't understand where you wish me to reference from as it mainly information about the brewery. Please advise how I can fix this for the page to be accepted. Should I reference from our company site, Companies House etc? For the awards should I reference from the Award body? FerryBrewery (talk) 18:54, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You are lucky, there is a guide on making article specifically for breweries, check WP:Notability (breweries). The general rule is that you should have every word said supported by independent sources (newspaper publications, industry magazines and so on). Your own website is NOT a trusted source of information (as it belongs to you). This article says more about making references. Also avoid words like "our products", this is an encyclopedia, not your website of Facebook page. Hope it helps. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:10, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I can see, the user's blocked and the draft deleted for advertisement. So, I don't think this is likely to progress any time soon. KJP1 (talk) 10:34, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

20:40:18, 3 March 2018 review of submission by 68.102.39.189

edit

I Hope This Article is ready to move into the main catgorey 68.102.39.189 (talk) 20:40, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

68.102.39.189 - I think the answer's the same as for the next three. It's just too soon for these drafts to go into main space. As the games don't begin for another six months, the drafts are, of necessity, full of holes. It might be that a reviewer with more experience and expertise in sports will have some suggestions, but I can't see how they can be made suitable before the matches have actually been played.

20:42:26, 3 March 2018 review of submission by 68.102.39.189

edit

Is the article ready because it has two references 68.102.39.189 (talk) 20:42, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

68.102.39.189 - answer as above and as below. KJP1 (talk) 10:25, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

20:45:09, 3 March 2018 review of submission by 68.102.39.189

edit

Can you upload the Mountain West Logo and I Put a reference a couple days ago and I hope this article is ready for main article space 68.102.39.189 (talk) 20:45, 3 March 2018 (UTC) 68.102.39.189 (talk) 20:45, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

68.102.39.189 - As the declining reviewer indicated, I just don't see how this can be Accepted for main space at this time. The first game's not due to be played until August 2018 and, as a consequence, the draft has large blank sections. Sports aren't my bag, and it may be that another reviewer can make some suggestions, but to me, it's too soon. KJP1 (talk) 10:19, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I Put 2 References in this article but is it enough to put it in main article space 68.102.39.189 (talk) 20:47, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

68.102.39.189 - Response as above. KJP1 (talk) 10:26, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
