You don't ask a question, but the draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. 331dot (talk) 11:19, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I've used Wikipedia for a while and I totally forgot something. How many citations needed for an article?

AdjectiveGuy (talk) 16:43, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

AdjectiveGuy There is not a specific number, but to pass this process most reviewers look for at least three sources with significant coverage. 331dot (talk) 18:43, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
AdjectiveGuy Would you consider merging the content and redirecting to Kalaleng? TechnoTalk (talk) 19:28, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

18:08:05, 21 January 2022 review of draft by George-Amherst

edit


The title of my submission has been changed without my permission. The new title is totally unacceptable. Please advise on how I should proceed. I would demand to withdraw the submission altogether rather than proceed with the title which has been substituted for the original title. George-Amherst (talk) 18:08, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

George-Amherst, the page can be moved to a different title, if sources support but what it can not have is three different titles and an opening line that says "Subject is...". All three can be used in the opening sentence if sources support.
What is the proper title for the article?
Also, you can abandon the draft and it will be deleted in six months or you can place {{Db-author}} at the top of the page and an admin will clear it out.Slywriter (talk) 18:21, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The page name has been changed without my permission, and it is a totally incorrect title of the subject of the article I have submitted. The correct title of the article is: Le Musée français, Le Musée Napoléon and Le Musée royal. It should not be considered under the title Le Musee royal, and I need to withdraw it if this change cannot be corrected. George-Amherst (talk) 18:30, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@George-Amherst: if and when the draft is accepted, it can be moved to a title that better reflects the content. --bonadea contributions talk 18:38, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
George-Amherst (ec) Please leave a post on the draft talk page regarding the title; if the draft is accepted, the reviewer can place it at the proper title. Please note that Wikipedia typically uses the name of a topic that is most commonly used by independent reliable sources, and not necessarily official or legal names. See WP:COMMONNAME. 331dot (talk) 18:39, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am curious as to why the title would be a deal breaker for an otherwise valid article (if it is). 331dot (talk) 18:41, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
George-Amherst If this were a company article, it would not list all the previous names of the company in the title. It would just list the current or latest name, and mention the earlier names in the history, bolded if there are redirects. Otherwise you'd have an article called Verizon, GTE, Bell Atlantic. The last title the publication held should be the article title. Once an article is loaded, it isn't owned by anyone, so sometimes that can be hard for the writer. Perhaps a blog might be more to your liking, since then you can keep others from changing it. TechnoTalk (talk) 19:23, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have done some minor edits to bring it into further alignment and hopefully clear up the title issue a bit more. I believe, this article is not about a single publication, but about three publications as a series. This series does not have a singular title, as one may expect with most other series. They are referred to by all three when written about in the sources or individually if you are only speaking of a single publication. I do believe an article on each could be possible but would duplicate much of the content. So I can see some of the frustration of George-Amherst, but this is a strong over reaction to something this minor which can very quickly be cleared up with some discussion. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 19:44, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
George-Amherst Also, if accepted, redirects can be created from the other names that it has had.Naraht (talk) 10:17, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

20:33:45, 21 January 2022 review of submission by Eatthecrow

edit

Hello! I was wondering if someone could help me out. I'm still learning how to write a good Wikipedia article. In the Draft:Jo Bamford, one of the reasons they declined it was it needs to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Can anyone offer some pointers on how I could do that to improve the draft article? Thanks! Eatthecrow (talk) 20:33, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

EatthecrowI'd reach out to the editor Synoman Barris that declined the article. It looks like it was improved some, but isn't a slam dunk.Naraht (talk) 10:13, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Replied to on my talk page. Cheers Megan B.... It’s all coming to me till the end of time 14:29, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 22:43:43, 21 January 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Itsfrizzy

edit


My article has been rejected for using content that I own the copyright of, isn't that acceptable?

Itsfrizzy (talk) 22:43, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It has also been declined because the references do not show that you qualify for a Wikipedia article, the references are your own website and Wikipedia has zero interest in what that says about you, we require independent sources that discuss you in depth.
