06:13:40, 31 July 2014 review of draft by Appiness-wiki
The article I have submitted is not yet reviewed. Kindly help me out the reason why its not get reviewed. Appiness-wiki (talk) 06:13, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Certainly. You submitted it yesterday. There is a queue. Everyone here is a volunteer, and reviews articles when they can and when they feel they have the skill to do so. Please continue to improve your draft until such time as a reviewer accepts it or declines it with suggestions for further work. Fiddle   Faddle  07:24, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

08:06:41, 31 July 2014 review of submission by Kotekhutsishvili
I've submitted new page and it was rejected. Can you tell me why was it declined? Kotekhutsishvili (talk) 08:06, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * One reason for it being declined is contained in the pink box at the top of the draft page itself, Draft:Asseco Georgia. You can read more by clicking the links there.


 * Another reason for it being declined is that it is overtly promotional, with phrases like "Our software is based on a multi-decade sectoral experience". That sort of language is suitable for putting on the company's own website - it is not suitable for an encyclopedia article. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 08:38, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

11:41:49, 31 July 2014 request for review by 192.116.95.66 Transparent: Why you don't put the vulume I put about Gali Timen? She has a vulume on Wiki in another language.

 * This is not the location to submit your request. Go to WP:RA to request an article about artist Gali Timen. Also try Wikiproject Israel. Chris Troutman  ( talk ) 17:36, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi this is really archaic, and I am sure once you learn this system it becomes second nature, but at this point it seems a throwback to my programming days. My submission was rejected...without any indication how I can make edits so that it is accepted. I am trying to get a wikipage on my colleague Dave Baldrdige. Mario Garrett


 * We can't give you any advice if we have no idea what page you are referring to - the IP you used to post the above has no record of working on a draft article. The only page on Wikipedia that a search shows a mention of Dave Baldrdige is this one right here (BTW are you certain the spelling is correct?). Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 12:53, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Again this is an archaic method to edit a submission. Why not email me? How do I know I have to refer to my submission (this is the only submission I made.) Why does it have to be so public? I could use some help but the system (wikipedia) expects a sharp learning curve. Reinventing the wheel. Why not have the submission as a blog and then when the piece is ready for publication for the editors to publish it. They can send comments by email. Zip learning curve. I understand all of this volunteered time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.140.194.189 (talk) 15:04, 3 August 2014 (UTC)

19:16:47, 31 July 2014 review of submission by Emiskew
I'm unclear on why our article on March Networks was rejected again. I have re-written it to cite independent third-party sources, as was suggested by the first editor. The sources I'm using are cited on several other published Wikipedia entries, so they were found by an editor to be reliable. The last editor of our submission mentions in his comments that he didn't even thoroughly review all the sources - but he still rejected our submission? Can someone please help?

Emiskew (talk) 19:16, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Indeed I had no need to examine all the references. Those I sampled were insufficient in my opinion, and thus I declined your draft. The thing is, we want to accept drafts, but you need to make our job easy by doing the things required. Our objective is that your draft, once accepted, is unlikely to be proposed for any of the deletion processes. The submit. review, edit, resubmit process may be hard, but it;s a load easier than fighting against deletion. Please read the comments on the draft and take them on board. Fiddle   Faddle  20:03, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Can you please identify which sources are not reliable? As I said, many of my sources are listed in other approved & published Wikipedia entries. It would help me in updating my submission.

Emiskew (talk) 20:22, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * I have flagged several in the article. You have used regurgitated PR pieces, press releases and directory entries. These are almost always primary sources. While we may use primary sources we may only use then in very particular circumstances. These are not such circumstances. If such sources are used in other Wikipedia entries then they are not good enough there ether. If you read WP:RS you can work out quite easily what is and is not a reliable source.


 * You have no need to use a new heading each time you ask a question here. Please continue with the existing one if it has not been archived. I have removed the redundant section heading for you. Fiddle   Faddle  22:09, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

21:55:29, 31 July 2014 request for review by Krosadino
Hi,

I was hired as an intern by a company, Barker Specialty, to do a project for a company that they work with, Bow Tie Cinemas. Bow Tie drafted a write-up of what they wanted to be featured on Wikipedia about their company, and it was my job to upload the write-up and to follow all of Wikipedia's required steps, legal obligations, and processes. However, the article which I submitted on June 7, 2014, detected copyrighted information, and I am unaware of what was copyrighted as I had properly cited all of the photographs and text. I need to recover this article so that the company can fix whatever was copyrighted as soon as possible, as my internship ended June 30, 2014. Is there any way that I can trace this article back? It took me a very long time to complete this project, and I feel as if it just vanished due to a copyright error that myself, my boss, and my co-workers are confused on. Please let me know. Thank you! Kelly Rosadino.

 * It is very unlikely that any material deemed to be a copyright violation will be refunded to you, but you can ask the admin who deleted it. [irony mode]What rotten luck for Bow Tie Cinemas and Barker Specialty that their paid for editorial was deleted[/irony mode]. We deprecate paid editing and conflicts of interest. Fiddle   Faddle  22:14, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Interestingly Draft:Bow Tie Cinemas remains. The version previously was deleted thus: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Draft%3ABow+Tie+Cinemas. Note that, if the current version is also a copyvio it will not remain for long at all. Copyright violation is not lawful. Fiddle   Faddle  22:18, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * It is a copyright violation of http://www.bowtiecinemas.com/about/ and has been proposed for speedy deletion as such. You don't need the original draft refunded since it appears you copied the whole thing? I will ask to note this conversation as the deleting admin. He has access to the original, something I do not. He may take a different view from me, as he is entitled to.  Fiddle   Faddle  22:25, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

23:51:30, 31 July 2014 review of draft by Bookerrj
Is there a way I can see where my submission is on the queue for review? I want to verify that it will be reviewed.

Thank you.

Bookerrj (talk) 23:51, 31 July 2014 (UTC)


 * The page is correctly submitted for review, despite what it says at the top. There is no orderly queue for review, so there is no way to see "where" a page is in such a queue. People review pages in whatever order they prefer. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 00:44, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
