How is the Topic not insufficient?

Usernae31 (talk) 03:34, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Usernae31, in order to show that a person is notable, wikipedia requires you to include multiple independent, reliable sources that discuss the topic. For example, books or newspaper articles would be good examples of reliable sources. Right now you do not have any of those kinds of sources, as Mustafa's website and something he has written are not independent or written by a third-party.

Hi Mermantiun. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. Unlike sites such as Facebook or YouTube, it is not a place to spread the word about yourself or your projects. You might wish to start a blog instead. --Worldbruce (talk) 10:00, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jainritesh94 (talk) 05:20, 22 June 2019 (UTC) Hi I was wondering why my article got declined?[reply]

Hi @Jainritesh94: The article reads like an advertisement. It reads more like an official profile created by the company, instead of an encyclopedia entry. Everything on Wikipedia should be written in an encyclopedic tone and convey information from reliable, independent sources. Right now I see that all the references in the article are from TorchIt itself; without independent sources, the article will not be acceptable for Wikipedia. I recommend taking a look at our guide to your first article as well as our notability guidelines. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 06:34, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am requesting a re-review since I have submitted a new version of the document following the advise provided on forums.

Best regards,

Fernanda

Mariferchis (talk) 05:46, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mariferchis. Neologisms are not considered suitable for Wikipedia unless they receive substantial use and press coverage; this requires strong evidence in independent, reliable, published sources. The only source cited by the draft that mentions the term is the artist's website. If the artist is notable, you could write a biography of them and mention the technique in a paragraph of it, but if they are the only person using or talking about the technique, Wikipedia should not have a stand-alone article about it. --Worldbruce (talk) 09:52, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As per the reviewer advice I had included Sabari Anandhan's certification of Ethical Hacker, also the year he got. I Wish this would help my article on the subject to be notable and included on Wikipedia. Thanks. Brickpa (talk) 09:11, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Brickpa. Rejection is intended to be final, to convey that the subject is not notable, so no amount of editing will make the draft publishable. --Worldbruce (talk) 09:27, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but Wikipedia can't accept texts copied from elsewhere without written permission by the creator. See your user talk page for more information. Jannik Schwaß (talk) 12:34, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hjlresearcher16 (talk) 17:02, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wiki Help,

Question: What is the best way to communicate with other Wikipedia editors on Wikipedia? For instance, if I am creating an article that is the subject of an inactive link in a published article and want to contact the editor of the published article how would I do so? Being able to confer with other creators/editors would save time an effort with regards to revising future articles. I am sure there must be a way to do so without resorting to personal emails.

Sincerely,

Hjlresearcher16

@Hjlresearcher16: - so a couple of options are probably best here:
1) Talk Pages - go to the talk page of the current article and ask about it there. The article's creator and major contributors will generally have it watchlisted so will see any comments
2) User Talk Pages - If you click the "View History" of the current article, you can see who has edited it, and thus who made the larger edits. If you click the "talk" next to their name you'll go their talk page and you can raise the topic there. If you have individuals who you'd rather speak to, this might be the way to do it. If you want opinions from several people it might be too much work.
n.b. - "Pinging" - If you aren't messaging on their user talk page, then the best way to get their attention is to "ping" them. That, in fact, is what I did at the beginning of my message. The full thing is explained at Template:Ping, but the summary is: type {{ping|Target's Username}} - e.g. {{ping|Nosebagbear}}. You must sign with ~~~~ at the end of your message or pinging won't work. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:32, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 17:37:05, 22 June 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by BritKester

Hello, I attempted to create a page for the University of Florida's Education Library. I just received a notice that the entry was rejected. One reason that was listed was: Individual branch libraries of this sort without buildings of their own are not generally notable. However, we do have our own building it is just housed within the UF College of Education Norman Hall complex. The University of Florida Architecture and Fine Art branch library has its own page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Florida_Architecture_and_Fine_Arts_Library) and the Education Library is very similar to this branch. I would like to link to digital collection created by the Education Library and other external links but I ran out of time when creating the page. I am hoping that the decision to reject the University of Florida's Education Library page will be reconsidered. Please let me know if you need more information or if there are any questions for me. Thank you. BritKester (talk) 17:37, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rejection is meant to be final, however I know cases where rejection wasn't the end of the story. Sine you use "we" above, I would ask you to read WP:COI and WP:PAID. Jannik Schwaß (talk) 12:27, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There isn't anything we can do, the topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. Theroadislong (talk) 18:06, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

20:08:13, 22 June 2019 review of draft by JEParsons787

edit


I will be seeking additional, public sources over the next several months, and will not be re-submitting the article until I have them. Is it possible to leave the article in my sandbox until then? I do not want my work to be deleted in the interim.

Second question: Other than the supporting citation issues, was the article itself sufficiently neutral?

JEParsons787 (talk) 20:08, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To answer your first question, drafts and AFC submissions that haven't been edited by a human in 6 months may be deleted (see WP:G13). As long as you're making at least one edit every six months the draft will be fine. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 20:59, 22 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
