WT:Articles for creation/Nelson Richard Dordelli-Rosales
Please help, I want to remove everything that is said on the following link: http://readtiger.com/wkp/en/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Nelson_Richard_Dordelli-Rosales Perhaps in the future I may have time to work on a new article in wikipedia, but right now I don't like how it looks at it is(190.72.87.170 (talk) 00:18, 23 May 2013 (UTC)nelsondordelly190.72.87.170 (talk) 00:18, 23 May 2013 (UTC))


 * If you're the draft's author (and logged in into your account User:Ndordelly) you can tag the draft for speedy deletion by adding db-author to the very top of the page WT:Articles for creation/Nelson Richard Dordelli-Rosales. As you were told on IRC, we cannot directly delete the mirrored copy. Huon (talk) 02:07, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Carlos Cuidad-Real
How do I add a picture to my article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bobsaget 5554 (talk • contribs) 01:32, 23 May 2013 (UTC)


 * That depends on the image. If you own the copyright (which most likely is only the case if you took it yourself) and are willing to release it under a free license such as the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License so that everybody can re-use and modify it for any purpose, including commercial purposes, you can upload it to the Wikimedia Commons via their Upload Wizard. The same holds if you don't own the copyright but the copyright holder has already released the image under such a license; then you'll have to name your source and provide evidence for the licensing. Once the image is uploaded, the picture tutorial explains how to display the image in an article. If the image is not freely licensed it probably will not be acceptable for Wikipedia.

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Template:Fake redirect
I'm trying to create a fake redirect template that I can later install on Help:Wiki markup. How do I do so? QM 400032 (ta lk)  02:47, 23 May 2013 (UTC)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by QM400032 (talk • contribs)


 * If you want that template for a single article, it would be easier to edit that article directly than to create a template. I'm not sure what you want to show. If you want to display the code, that can be done with tags: #REDIRECT Example
 * If you want to show what a redirect page looks like, the relevant code is [[Image:Redirectltr.png]] Example:
 * [[Image:Redirectltr.png]] Example
 * See also Help:Redirect for further code examples. I hope this helps. Otherwise please be a little more explicit in describing what you aim for. Huon (talk) 03:33, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

 * The reason is given in the grey box in the pink review template near the top of the page. There are a few links to guidance pages that can help you deal with the problems. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:07, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

All in all, this article contains useful information and contains good content. Well, it should be moved now on the article page. ✅ 112.207.14.164 (talk) 08:18, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Russell Bedford International
Hello.

I am having problems getting a short profile on this company accepted. The reason for my interest is this article on Accounting Networks on Wikipedia - it contains some quite serious errors and the data in the table is seriously out of date: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accounting_networks_and_associations

Reading into it, I saw you had a link to the Forum of Firms http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forum_of_Firms

I noticed some firms have live links, some do not. Surely you should be consistent across all? So I set about correcting this, doing some research to fill in the gaps ... which was the reason for submitting the article on Russell Bedford. But it seems my article has been rejected due to insufficient sources.

I'm not sure how many more sources I can supply. In that case, would it be better to draft a very basic article (name, address, website) as a 'stub'?

Re. the Networks Article. The main errors are - the table is so out of date: IGAF Polaris is now PrimeGlobal. The table also includes Polaris International, which is part of PrimeGlobal - the article cites 30 networks/associations: there are more than twice this number - the first networks generated in Europe, not the USA

As a first step I would like to know what I should do to get the initial article on Russell Bedford accepted, and will then apply this to other profiles I draft. Please also let me know what I should do regarding correction of the networks article.

 * Consistency is not always desirable; some companies may be more notable than others, in which case we might have articles on just some of them. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: The existence of one article cannot justify the existence of another; each submission must stand on its own merits.
 * Even a stub would require evidence of notability - that is, significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.
 * Regarding the Accounting networks and associations article, the table is clearly labeled 2011, and I assume it's correct as of two years ago (though it should be turned into a proper table, not just an image of a table). The numbers of 30 or 44 networks that the article gives are unsourced; I'll remove both. And while the history may be US-centric, it does cite a source, so the claim that Europe was more significant in the history of networks would have to be supported by sources as well. The Forum of Firms article is a mess without third-party sources and should be either improved or deleted. Huon (talk) 18:00, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Need clarifications on the new article creation
Hi Wikipedia Team,

I just want help from you, Please list out what are the steps that i need to do to make the article live Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Jorg Janke.

Please list out your steps.

Thanks, M.Vignesh Kanna(User:Winningindians 12:15, 23 May 2013 (UTC)WinningIndians) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Winningindians (talk • contribs)


 * You need to provide reliable sources that are independent of Janke, such as articles about him published by newspapers or reputable trade magazines. Then you should summarize what those sources say about Janke, while citing your sources, of course. Your current sources either mention him only in passing or not at all, or they are not reliable (such as Sourceforge, which is not subject to editorial oversight), or they are not independent (such as his own company). Thus they do not establish that Jansen is notable enough for an article. Huon (talk) 18:00, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Oklahoma
Hi, as a concern citizen of Amercia; my question is? Was Oklahoma ever been just land for this kind of herico weather conditons? I mean no houses are people able to live in this enviroment because of the dangerous tornado weather. I just feel to restore the enviroment would be setting up for furture failer and more possible death and loss of money and more debit for the goverment also increases in taxes for people. I also believe in our nation helping our fellowmen by all means necessary, and my opinion is to invest or donate money to these victims by placing them in a safe enviroment in Oklahoma where tornados are less pervalent. Ever one deserves a fresh start, and people are pershing from the lack of knowledge of examples of this nature. Why not start with a transitional by schooling our culture with better options and live the America Dream That All Nation Under God In Visible And Liberty And Justice For All. Save lives by building new land mark for future generations to come. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.171.162.123 (talk) 20:33, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

 * All nations being invisible makes it very hard to levy taxes upon any of them. This, in turn, makes any system of federal or central government almost totally impractical. Nice idea, though! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:14, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
