User talk:Dr.CVSB

Welcome!
hello, I was just wondering how long it takes for my contribution to be published. (Dr.CVSB (talk) 14:26, 10 October 2014 (UTC))


 * That draft was never submitted for review, and it first requires some heavy copyediting. Just to give an obvious example: All the all-caps content should be rewritten with proper capitalization. The content lacks cohesion (did the event described in the "Akon" section really happen before the conviction for attempted murder?), some of the sources, such as Amazon or YouTube, are less than reliable, and the tone is inappropriate for an encyclopedia article. For example, we should refer to Bacote by his surname, not by his given name. I have repaired the broken draft message box and started some basic copyediting. When the other issues are addressed, you can submit the draft for a review via the green "Submit your draft when you are ready" button. Unfortunately the review process is severely backlogged at the moment, so it may well take a month for the submitted draft to be reviewed. Huon (talk) 18:50, 10 October 2014 (UTC)

Where can I find the green submit your draft when ready button? I do not see that on the page. (Dr.CVSB (talk) 19:51, 12 October 2014 (UTC))
 * At the top of the page is a large pale-blue box headed "Draft article not currently submitted for review." The "Submit" button is a green bar at the bottom of that box. JohnCD (talk) 19:55, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

how do i add images to my article after i uploaded them ?(Dr.CVSB (talk) 05:09, 13 October 2014 (UTC))
 * It's similar to linking to them, but you add more fields to say what size, where to put them, and so on. There's a good quick explanation at Help:Files. For more details, see Picture_tutorial. --ais523 05:11, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

i uploaded pictures but now i don't know where to find them so that i can add them to my article. (Dr.CVSB (talk) 15:47, 13 October 2014 (UTC))
 * You uploaded them to Commons, a separate organization (good, because that makes them available to other Wikimedia projects). They are listed in your Commons contributions at commons:Special:Contributions/Dr.CVSB. JohnCD (talk) 16:23, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

I added photos to my article but it does not show on the preview. Am I doing something wrong?
 * Within tags, you shouldn't put square brackets round the file names. See Help:Picture tutorial. You probably don't need the "thumb" parameter either. If you are only wanting to add one image at that point, you don't need "gallery" - that is for displaying a whole row of them. JohnCD (talk) 22:07, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

I moved your help me request here
I need help. I worked diligently on this page but I don't understand why it was denied or what I can do to get the page submitted. I really don't want to quit until I am successful. Dr.CVSB (talk) 01:09, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
 * While the reviewer,, may the best person to ask; however, it seems that some of the sources come from interviews, which isn't independent. I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a &#123;&#123;Talkback&#125;&#125; message on my talk page. @ 01:53, 13 January 2015 (UTC)


 * The basic issue seems to be that Bacote simply is not notable enough to be the subject of an encyclopedia article of his own. Being a friend and associate of a notable person is not in itself a claim of notability, but that's what practically every single reliable third-party source focuses on. One of the news articles didn't even bother to use Bacote's name or nickname in the title but called him "Jay-Z associate" - that is Bacote's most significant achievement. A short note in the Jay-Z article about the court case seems more appropriate than an entire articke on Bacote. Huon (talk) 02:40, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
