Geoff Wilson (Australian explorer) moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Geoff Wilson (Australian explorer), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. –– FormalDude  talk  03:30, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

I made some major additions and added heaps of references, but publishing was the only option—sorry if I did the wrong thing. Ensam65 (talk) 06:44, 28 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Major additions and heaps of references? It's a four sentence stub with two citations.
 * Why was publishing the only option? Are you being paid to write this article? –– FormalDude  talk  07:52, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi FormalDude

I only just saw this from you and it’s archived now.

I don’t know how to prove that I didn’t receive anything for writing the article.

I just found out the subject (Geoff Wilson) wasn’t on Wikipedia and thought that he should be because he is a world record holder raising money for charity and people may not know about him when researching Antarctic explorers.

I saw him on the news and realised I had seen his name on the door of one of the vets we go to, and made the link with the pink logo.

I researched him and met with him to ask him some questions, researched some more to verify his story and wrote the article, citing the references I noted.

I made the changes you recommended and I just wanted to ask if it is okay now.

I’m using the Wikipedia app for iOS so that’s maybe why I couldn’t find the draft option.

If it’s okay, how do I remove the queries?
