December 1[edit]

Request on 02:15:45, 1 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Greatder[edit]


Need help understanding why Draft:Ethercalc isn't notable enough. I got references from Opensource.com, softwaregarden.com, bricklin.com, aosabook.org, two Chinese refs and Security Boulevard sources.

Greatder (talk) 02:15, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Source 1- Maybe, though writer says doesnt take self too seriously. Source 2 through 5- all appear connected to company. Source 6 - Not even seeing mention. Source 7 - Interview, not even primary topic. Source 8 - Partner given they are hosting a distribution. Source 9 - github, not independent.
So you have 1 maybe good source and the rest are not independent sources to establish notability. Focus on finding Independent sources. Slywriter (talk) 16:41, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

06:18:50, 1 December 2021 review of draft by Wiki102030[edit]


The page created below, was declined due to lack of reference. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Manta Five references have been already noted, all independent and reliable news publishers + the official website of "Manta" was linked by an "external link" format. Please let me know what more should be done in terms of backing up the facts dealt in the article so that it does not get declined.

Thanks

Sjchin (talk) 07:32, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

I want to know why the previous article was rejected by Wikipedia about Akribis Systems.

@Sjchin: Your second source is 404-compliant (it redirects to the homepage of an outlet called "The Japan Herald"), your third is the company itself, the Straits Times source is an interview with a company principal that hardly discusses the company in its extensive lede, your fifth source is redundant, and Arc is M&A news that doesn't help for notability. You have one usable source, which isn't enough to carry any sort of draft. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 19:15, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Hi Sjchin. If you mean why Draft:Akribis Systems has twice been declined, the reason is that it fails to show that the company is notable, that it has gained sufficiently significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time to justify inclusion in the encyclopedia. Novice editors are usually advised to cite at least 3 independent, reliable, secondary sources that contain significant coverage of their topic. The draft cites 1, the article in The Business Times. The remaining sources do nothing to establish notability. Bisouv.com and ARC Advisory Group have no reputation for accuracy and fact checking. They are not reliable sources. The company's website and the primary source interview in The Straits Times lack independence; they are reliable support only for uncontroversial facts.
Perhaps you can find a different article in The Straits Times that isn't an interview and provides in-depth information and analysis of the company. Then you would need just one more. I searched 21 ProQuest databases and 25 EBSCO databases, but was unable to find a good third source for you. It's a bad idea to write about a company you work for.

The reason for decline was, that the written already exists… I am a bit confused because the chapter I have added (Industrial Use) does not yet exist on the Chayote page.

14:56:44, 2 December 2021 review of draft by Graemesherriff[edit]


Good afternoon, I'm writign this article 'Eaga Charitable Trust' and have had the article rejected a couple of times on the basis of insufficient evidence/citations. The charity did exist (until 2019) and created a substantial 'archive and legacy' website at www.fuelpovertylibrary.info. This is the main source of information about the charity and contains downloadable versions of all of the research outputs over it's 25 year life. There are not a lot of other relevant references, but I have included those that are available - e.g. the closing event in the House of Lords.

Could you advise that more is needed in order for this to be published please?

best wishes

Graeme

Graemesherriff (talk) 14:56, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Graemesherriff A Wikipedia article summarizes what independent reliable sources say about a topic. An archive of materials put out by the organization is not independent. If no independent sources wrote about this charity, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization, it would not merit a Wikipedia article. 331dot (talk) 14:59, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Thank you 331dot for your response. I understand the need for independent references and I will try to locate some more of these. The online library, however, is an archive produced by other organisations (Universities, charities, consultancies) and funded by Eaga Charitable Trust. They are not materials put out by the organisation as such, and the library was produced by a academic team at University of Salford and a reference group consisting of academics working on fuel poverty research. Would changing the text to somehow emphasise the independent nature of the archive website help to make the case for this entry to be published? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Graemesherriff (talk • contribs) 17:13, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

I understand that the archive itself is independent, but- unless I'm not understanding something correctly- the materials it holds are not. 331dot (talk) 17:23, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Hello! I thought that I put credible sources in my article but Wiki is saying that they are not. Could you help me know what kind of web source I need to input? It's a professional racing driver.

15:53:46, 2 December 2021 review of draft by Moores10[edit]


The post I am trying to publish has been put under review and I was told that there is not "significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject".

Therefore, I was wondering how many attempts I am allowed e.g. if I added in more sources but the problem is seen as not being resolved will it then be deleted?

Also part of the problem in finding corroboratory references for this article is that most references to the subject matter repeat a misleading assertion which can be proven to be false by reference to Companies House records but this cannot be referenced in a Wikipedia article and therefore I am unsure how to proceed, as some references can be used but they state misleading information.

Thank you.

Moores10 (talk) 15:53, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Moores10 There is no formal limit on the number of times a draft can be submitted. However, if you keep submitting it without addressing or at least making progress towards addressing the issues, it will eventually be rejected(meaning that it cannot be resubmitted). 331dot (talk) 17:27, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
Moores10 You'll need more than what's there. I think if you can find 4-5 more good sources, there's a chance. I'd also get rid of any titles in the discography that can't be sourced or don't have an article of their own. It bloats it and hurts your chances of success, since it's a stream of non-notable items. You can always ping me again to review, but I'm not as frequently on the site as I'd like to be.

@ZX2006XZ: Please do yourself a favour, stop trying to get this rammed through, and wait until the discussion at WT:FILM has finished or the film has released. Power-posting here when someone in the studio opts for prosciutto over salami in their lunch is a waste of everyone's time and doesn't help your case a whit; if anything it makes all your protestations of having no connexion to the subject ring hollow. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 17:42, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

General references are allowed in articles, particularly if they are stubs. See Wikipedia:CITETYPE Amirah talk 17:46, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
@AmirahBreen: I think you're close with the BBC coverage, but I prefer the earlier version TheRoadIsLong tried to help you with, without the small subsections. Better an flowing longer stub than a staccato disjointed one. TechnoTalk (talk) 20:48, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
I appreciate what you are saying, but in one breath they are telling me to expand the sections and in the next to remove the section headers. There is no point in working backwards on it. For that reason I would rather go the route of expanding it. But when I try to do so they are accusing me of reverting their edits in which they removed the section headers. I have also considered abandoning the draft and publishing a stub with no section headers, which may get it published quicker, but the work on expanding it would still have to be done either way.

10:27:20, 3 December 2021 review of submission by Bobbiecompulsory[edit]


I am trying to make a page regarding a short film, I have included over 50 citations from reputable sources including film festival websites, reviewers and news websites. I have added links and credited all statements within the article. In order to highlight that what I was stating about the film's synopsis was indeed correct I cited the film's website which would additionally support that information. This page was by no means to promote but to highlight the cast, crew and festival accolades of the film, which were all supported by related links and sources.

However this is what I received with my rejection:

Besides notability concerns, you can not just lift content from the webpage of the movie and transfer it to wikipedia. we are not here to promote a product and truly care very little what a subject has to say about themselves


Bobbiecompulsory (talk) 10:27, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Bobbiecompulsory The draft was deleted as a copyright infringement; if you lifted content like the syopsis from the film website, that would indeed be a copyright violation. "Highlight the cast, crew and festival accolades of the film" is indeed a promotional purpose. Wikipedia is only interested in summarizing what independent reliable sources have chosen on their own to say about(in this case) a film, not based on any materials put out by those associated with the film(such as interviews with staff/cast, press releases, basic announcements), showing how the film meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable film. If you are associated with this film, please review WP:COI and WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 10:35, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
Besides the synopsis, the biographies of the cast were word for word copyright violations. This plus the overly promotional tone of the article left no discretion when reviewing. Slywriter (talk) 16:28, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

you assistance is very appreciated. however my submission got rejected because lack of notability, from my point of view i can see that making a lot of explanation would lead to unfortunate Promotional materials so that is why i had to give a brief description of the company and its locations, website, number, field of business, official logo and finally some references that are being reliable enough to get this article approved, please make sure that you have read the article carefully after i have made some changes. you understanding is highly appreciated as i have spent 8 days trying to put this on Wikipedia as it is a huge step for me.

@S0091: Thank you! the article was submitted and declined. The reason was: "This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia."

Could you please explain to me what "do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject" means? should I add more references? what kind of references (the article is about a scientific journal)? I saw that some of the journals referenced by wikipedia have cited only one reference. Thank you your help!

Since last rejection, article changed to focus on "Scott the Woz" web series rather than its author, and article got additional secondary sources. Xfix (talk) 20:55, 4 December 2021 (UTC)

The article was rejected so it will not longer be considered. Also, IMDB is not a reliable source so should not be used. S0091 (talk) 20:30, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Not sure what the protocol is for replying to an earlier reply. But creating a new entry, quoting the original issue, just in case.

I am new to submitting on Wikipedia. Can you please review this entry? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Asoka_De_Zoysa_Gunawardana

For a simple article like this, I am trying to understand how you strike the balance between a) citing sources and b) not infringing copyright.

I have taken a second pass at re-drafting the content after the initial rejection.

Thank you for your guidance!

hi, why has the draft been rejected? Janani Krishnamurthy draft. do let us know how we can edit it and what changes need to be made so it's reviewed and published. She is one of the top 100 women in India and has been awarded and it's great because no one from south India especially the rural parts of Tamilnadu has ever got the award.

It was rejected and deleted because it was blatant spam, and your message above is almost certainly a factor in why your account got blocked. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 20:57, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

I do not know how to adequately support my article with reliable sources or have my article show significant coverage about the subject on Lion Mums. LaurenceLian02 (talk) 16:13, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

LaurenceLian02 Please read Your First Article and use the new user tutorial. Wikipedia is not a place to just tell about something; you should summarize what independent reliable sources say about a topic, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of notability. 331dot (talk) 16:33, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

See other poor quality articles exist for that argument. Your draft has zero independent sources and has spam links to their own website. Theroadislong (talk) 20:42, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I have edited the page of Gleneagles Hospital Penang with adding in more info, but that particular info was removed. It was last edited on 4 December 2021. I understand my article may encountered some copyrighting issue, but in fact all my info was founded myself. I'm not sure which copyrighted issue I violated. Please assist.

Please refer to the article of: Gleneagles Hospital Penang and my draft article Draft: Gleneagles Hospital Medini Johor

    • A note here, I have no relation with the said companies.

Hi, I registered an account on Wikipedia today and tried to add a new article. It is my own site Power Wiki, which I provide for free in order to help others learn more about Microsoft Power Platform and related technologies. The article was not accepted and there was a note about copying information. But I have written that information on the Power Wiki site. I'm thinking it is good to have it on Wikipedia in order for more people to find it. :) Kind Regards, Carina

CarinaMClaesson (talk) 13:01, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

CarinaMClaesson, Wikipedia is not about informing the world about your website. We care what reliable sources independent of the subject are saying. See WP:Promo and WP:COI for additional information about writing about subjects you have a connection to and WP:V and WP:RS for more information on sourcing needed.

I just updated the article following the guidelines requested on the Teahouse group, and add sources as well to meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject, but I can't resubmit the article anymore. Thanks a lot for your feedback Yasminto2000 (talk) 17:12, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Your draft was rejected and the message you received was "DO NOT resubmit this draft or attempt to resubmit this draft or prepare or submit a draft that is substantially the same as this draft without discussing the reasons for the rejection."

Hi there,

Greystone Kids Draft Wikipedia page has been rejected, due to it being too similar to the Greystone Books Wikipedia page. The companies are connected, but are different imprints (different companies, like a branch of a big company) that should have its own Wikipedia page. Could the Greystone Kids page please be reviewed? Also, we have different staff, contributors, a unique logo too that can be added to the page too. More so, I can add more different information if needed too.

Though we are connected to the parent company of Greystone Books, we at Greystone Kids would really like to have Greystone Kids as a seperate entity.

Please review and let me know what you think. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this for me!

I look forward to hearing from you.

Warm regards, and thank you, Olivia


GSB2021 (talk) 19:09, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

GSB2021, Please see WP:COI and WP:Paid and make any relevant disclosures.
With that out of the way, Wikipedia doesn't care what a company wants. Wikipedia cares about what independent reliable sources are saying about the article subject. Wikipedia is not an advertising vehicle and it is not where you create an article to get noticed.
Robert's advice that it can be included as a section of the parent article is a good one and the best case. Down the road enough coverage may occur to justify a standalone article. Slywriter (talk) 19:17, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi,

First-time contributing to Wikipedia so please bear with me.

I read your comment saying that new mainstream sources don't mention the subject or only provide a trivial mention. Do you consider all the references in the article as trivial mentions? If not, what can I remove? I already replaced the references which I though was passing mentions from the last edit I made.


Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance :)
