03:13:48, 28 February 2015 review of submission by Alfhild-anthro
I recently had an article accepted on bassist Andy McKee. There is another Andy McKee who is a well-known guitar player who already has a Wikipedia page. How can I ensure that people who are looking for the bassist are redirected from the guitarist's page? Thank you Alfhild-anthro Alfhild-anthro (talk) 03:13, 28 February 2015 (UTC) PAGE''' ]]) 21:10, 2 March 2015 (UTC)

I dont see any reason to delete my page from wikipedia because all the information that I provided is true and I have used some references like the link of University of Dhaka (the biggest university of Bangladesh), The Bangladesh Today (one of the leading newspaper of the country) where you will get my information. These two websites are more than enough to prove my identity because nobody can open that kind of website. Mr. Shamim is my personal assistant and I asked him to upload my profile in wikipedia, I did not know that I need to do it myself....Thanks..


 * Firstly, that draft's sources did not in fact support the content, and they weren't the reliable independent sources we're looking for either. Secondly, your draft was a copy-paste of a previous (now deleted) version created by Mah.shamim, who is blocked for being only interested in promotional edits. He also violated the Terms of Use by not declaring that he's editing Wikipedia as part of his job. Your draft was deleted because it was considered a creation by a banned or blocked user (Mah.shamim) in violation of ban or block. And no, you do not need to "upload your profile" yourself. You may want to do so on LinkedIn; Wikipedia, however, is an encyclopedia, and writing an autobiography here is strongly discouraged because it's very difficult to maintain a neutral point of view when doing so. I'd call your draft a good example. Furthermore, we previously deleted articles about you no less than thrice; see this deletion discussion for a summary of the reasons. It appears you simply do not meet Wikipedia's standards of notability, and we should not have an article about you. Even if that assessment were incorrect, it would be much better to wait until someone not affiliated with you in any way decides on their own to write an encyclopedia article about you.

I have sent for review the draft Swedish Doctors for Human Rights. It is a complete new text and I worked hard in sourcing the criteria to be assessed (32 references, mainly secondary sources). I wonder if I could get some feedback while it is possible to improve the article ¬– before the review takes place. I would greatly appreciate if you would have any opinion, or suggestion.

Also, as reference, I have random these other articles in Wikipedia listed in the same category “International Human Rights Organizations” and I could see that a) many HR-organizations start by highlighting the name of the founder – I wonder if that is really necessary or just advisable; b) Arguments for the organizations’ notability are not mentioned in most of the articles; there was only one organization listed in the category “International Human Rights Organizations” which has a focus on health-issues, "Physicians For Human Rights", based in the U.S. but apparently with no links to EU or Scandinavian countries.

Lastly, I wonder is it would be possible for an administrator or approved user to move the draft to main space after their own checking up, or if the review means that there is a special peer-review committee assessing the new articles?

These are the examples of articles mentioned above:

International Coalition to End Torture

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advancing_Human_Rights

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Association_for_Human_Values

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defend_International

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Defenders

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derechos_Human_Rights

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Rights] (this the only article I found in the sample, which it is tagged “This article relies too much on references to primary sources."
