User:Capsulecap/AFC quick links

This is a list of links that are useful for AfC reviewers.

Shortcuts to important pages

 * CAT:AFC0 — Redirects to a category containing the newest drafts submitted to AfC. The newest articles are on the bottom.
 * WP:AFC — Go to the AfC homepage. From here you can find a template which shows you all AfC categories for quick access.
 * WP:WPAFC — Go to the Wikiproject AfC homepage. You can find important information relating to reviewing drafts here.

Notability: reliability, independence, and significance

 * WP:N — Basic description of notability.
 * WP:GNG — The general notability guideline — this is the first thing you should check a referenced draft with.
 * WP:RS — Description of "reliable sources." Essentially, reliable sources should be unbiased, not user generated (unless it is a self-description), and written by an expert on a topic (so not e.g. some random person's blog.)
 * WP:RSP — A list of sources with contentious reliability. If you have doubts about a site's reliability, search the table on this page for the site.
 * WP:PST — Definition of "primary" and "non-primary" sources.
 * WP:SIGCOV — (Listed for completeness, links to same section as GNG.) Definition of "significant coverage."


 * WP:SNG — Subject-specific notability guidelines. Check a draft against the relevant guidelines if you have doubts about its passing of GNG.

Other basic things

 * WP:NOT — Many drafts get declined for things like being written like essays or predicting the future. A sizable amount of drafts are rejected due to being "non-encyclopedic" for reasons described in this policy.
 * Add specific sections here, e.g. not essay
 * WP:COI, WP:NPOV, and WP:PAID — Another portion of drafts are declined for being clearly promotional in nature. These drafts are typically made by businesses which hire paid editors or write a draft in some other way.

Guides

 * There's something at WPAFC for this…

Help article writers

 * WP:AFCHD — The AfC help desk is the designated page for inquiries as to why exactly a draft was declined. If you were the reviewer of a user's draft or you could clearly explain why it was declined, then you can help them figure out why their page isn't yet up to standards.
 * WP:TH — The Teahouse also sees a large amount of writers asking why their drafts were rejected.
