 * The draft is an egregious advertisement and probably deserves to be speedily deleted per WP:CSD. However, it is just possible that there is a notable basic subject underneath all that. If you've come here for advice on how to proceed, my advice would be to delete everything you have written so and start again, after having read WP:FIRST (and probably WP:NPOV, WP:N, and WP:RS).

We had the following text:

This was removed. In our scientific field we are able to add a "personal communication" as a reference.

Our question is - is there a mechanism to add a personal communication ?

 * Unfortunately, no, Wikipedia does not accept private correspondence as a reliable source. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 06:32, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

sorry second try, we assumed all tags would have been effectively wrapped in a html equivalent of pre

Our query was

We had the following text as a reference "Kligler’s letters, collection Dani Kligler – Kligler’s grandson"

This was removed. In our scientific field we are able to add a "personal communication" as a reference.

Our question is - is there a mechanism to add a personal communication ?

11:13:12, 8 June 2014 review of submission by Sucheta Raikar
The motivation behind my submission is a sincere feeling, as an avid film goer and student of cinema, that there should be a Wikipedia entry for a maverick Casting director like Mukesh Chhabra who has revolutionized the casting industry in India with his democratic and unconventional methods of casting. In the near future, He's likely to win several awards and accolades that would make the world look up and take notice. Casting for ages was considered a small and inconsequential cog in the large wheel of film making as the HBO documentary Casting By highlighted. But back home in India, it even lacks the basic professionalism that Hollywood follows. And hence the criticality of what Mukesh has done.

I think, given my several attempts in meeting the Wikipedia policies for submissions. it's clear that I need expert help to make the article worthy of inclusion. Please help me in this endeavour.

Regards Sucheta

 * You may be unaware of WP:Mentoring. This ought to provide the help you seek. Fiddle   Faddle  15:17, 8 June 2014 (UTC)


 * ✅ Surprisingly, Chhabra has been interviewed quite extensively in Indian media. I have neutral-ified the prose and tidied it into the mainspace. Bellerophon talk to me  23:08, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Can this be removed, T. Corderoy is an author (with a page on wikipedia), and this page re-directs searches away? Thanks Mcorderoy (talk) 12:49, 8 June 2014 (UTC)


 * I've done this, which may achieve what you want. Note that search engines may (or may not) take a few days to catch up. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 12:57, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

Native Son (American Band) article
Will you please help me, I do not know what I am doing wrong, I have edited and reedited my article so many times I am become discouraged... :(

poekneegurlPoekneegurl (talk) 16:47, 8 June 2014 (UTC)


 * You've used very poor quality sources. As a rule, YouTube, Allmusic and other Wikipedia articles are no good for evidencing something's notability. Give us better sources, like books, newspaper articles, interviews in magazines etc. If no such sources exist, then the band may not be notable enough to be in Wikipedia.

17:07:22, 8 June 2014 review of submission by Poekneegurl
I am not sure what I am doing wrong, will you please help me with this article? I see something that needs correcting in red, that has something to do with "cite", but I don't know how to correct it, is that all that is holding up it being ok'd. If not please steer me in the right direction...all of the members of the band have their own PRIVATE WIKI PAGES...but not as their band Native Son...which they refer to in each of their .com pages or in the wiki articles that have been created for them.

These guys got together in 2010 thru 2011 and worked as a cohesive unit many times, even touring clubs overseas. I use to work in the industry and have several friends in it, I have it on good word that they will be getting back together and are writing compositions together. I would like to get this article out, so when they do, and people hear their music, they will know who all of them are and the years of experience they have in the industry between them. Most are old men on their last leg and I think they need to be recognized for their many accomplishments in the business with a respect for who they are as Native Son ... they are all Son's of American soil and it should be known that they are, some of the World Known Musicians.

I just need time to put up my references and build on the article, as well as giving others the opportunity to edit it, add to it and refine it with what THEY know about these four guys. Please take time to research them and you will see just WHO they are, this is not your "average" garage band... These are musicians who are in demand today...and a couple are philanthropist and help people and I want that known as well. People need to know that talented musicians, sometimes DON'T JUST PLAY MUSIC and give back in other ways. There are 2 of them that have consistently worked with David Foster, Quincy Jones Michael Jackson and only musicians that are greatly respected rise to that height in the business.

I just feel they are to be acknowledged and their lives pointed to.

Thank you..

 * First, the articles about the individual members are poorly sourced and might be deleted themselves, so don't attempt to hang your hat on that. Second, your draft submission fails WP:NBAND and generally lacks reliable sources. Your emotional pleas indicate you're not being objective about this. Please also read WP:GNG and WP:42.
