Hello, I'm Ceranthor. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.  ceran  thor 03:06, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello, responding to your email here on your talk page. I still think this part verges on being promotional: "Presently, the Teaneck International Film Festival draws over 3,000 filmgoers each year. Films and talkbacks illustrate what TIFF is about – making untouchable topics part of everyday conversation by addressing racism, oppression, the environment, the LGBTQ community, women’s concerns, immigration -- stories of the little guy whose story is not often heard. With the theme, Activism: Making Change, the festival is an excellent starting point". I worry that you might have a conflict of interest with the festival. And make sure to review our notability criteria at Notability to make sure that the TIFF merits its own Wikipedia page, rather than just being mentioned on the Teaneck, NJ entry. Thanks,  ceran  thor 20:12, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

Questioning our page
I have checked the following festival wiki pages and can't grasp why my streamlined version is still not being accepted. The best person (or people) to create a page would be those who know the most about the subject. Wikipedia will not allow us to add our festival to any of the lists without our own page. This is a non-profit organization. Here are a slew of other film festivals below that I found on Wikipedia, as well as a few which have notations about being self-promoting.

How did these get published in the first place?? [] []


 * You can create a draft at Teaneck International Film Festival. I am just trying to let you know that the article needs to be written from a neutral point of view and that it must establish sufficient notability to have its own article, as per the notability criteria I noted above.  ceran  thor 22:16, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
