First I submitted a page and was told it would be up to 4 months for it to be reviewed, but then it got deleted because it hadn't been updated. Next a request for re-instatement was rejected because the wikipedia article was similar to an article I had subsequently written on another website. Then my submission was rejected because of a lack of independent verifiable sources (my article is about a programming tool that has existed for years, and has over a million users) At other times articles have been rejected because the reviewer believed it was a commercial enterprise (it is actually a not for profile organisation).

Al4He6 Your draft does little more than tell of the existence of this tool, and links to its official website, social media, and other associated websites. That is not what Wikipedia articles do. A Wikipedia article must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability. Please read Your First Article and if you have not already, use the new user tutorial. 331dot (talk) 17:00, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

is it okey to be accepted? is it possible to review it? Saher AlSous (talk) 16:52, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Saher AlSous As noted on your draft, "This may take 3 months or more, since drafts are reviewed in no specific order. There are 3,091 pending submissions waiting for review." Reviews are conducted by volunteers in no particular order, doing what they can when they can. Please be patient. 331dot (talk) 16:57, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You keep rejecting my draft due to "unreliable sources" - my biography is about Mary Susan James Barr, the surviving daughter of Jesse James, the outlaw. The sources I am providing are from the Jesse James Museum! Please explain to me why a museum is not a reliable source. The other sources is findagrave.com, maintained by Leo James, a descendant of Jesse James. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Mary_Susan_James

RebelRauser Findagrave is not a reliable source as it is user-editable. The museum is not an independent source. There must be significant coverage of her in independent reliable sources. 331dot (talk) 19:26, 18 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
