Can other Wikipedia articles be considered reliable sources for referencing? Can magazine article be used as a source if it's written in a language other then the article? Would IMDB.com be good source for verifying credit of music video director? Would website like Vevo displaying director's name be used to verify directors credit for the music video? can press release by the museum be used as a source to verify authorship of an artwork?

 * 1) "Do not use articles from Wikipedia as sources." (WP:CIRC)
 * 2) "Citations to non-English sources are allowed. However, because this is the English-language Wikipedia, English-language sources are preferred over non-English ones whenever English sources of equal quality and relevance are available." (WP:NONENG)
 * 3) "Self-published media ... are largely not acceptable. This includes any website whose content is largely user-generated, including the Internet Movie Database (IMDB)." (WP:USERGENERATED)
 * 4) Vevo's Terms of Use make it sound like at least some of its content is user-generated. Other content may come from the major record labels, but what comes from where is unclear to me.
 * 5) A press release by a museum would likely be considered a reliable source for the authorship of an artwork they exhibited.

Jimmybikram (talk) 14:53, 16 June 2015 (UTC) sir please help me for my artile what to do for publishing, i was tryied a lot then i submitted but this time also not accepted.
 * The draft does not establish that Jimmy Bikram fulfills the basic notability criteria for people. References are required to demonstrate notability. They must be reliable secondary sources independent of each other and the subject. There need to be multiple sources, and they need to provide a significant depth of coverage. The draft cites no sources, so the subject does not appear to be a suitable topic for an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not for self-promotion. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

What is happening with my article
The requested changed for this article made and it was resubmitted/. I am wondering if it is in the process of being reviewed or if it is in limbo somewhere. If someone would please advise. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wallyl22 (talk • contribs) 16:01, 16 June 2015 (UTC)


 * It doesn't help that you have numerous drafts in different places.
 * As far as Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Joel S. Schuman is concerned, in you removed the submission feedback templates that included the "resubmit" button.  As you haven't resubmitted, it isn't waiting for review.  I will add back the templates you deleted.
 * You also have a draft at User:Wallyl22, but that is the wrong place for a draft article. The purpose of a user page is given at WP:User pages.
 * You have yet another version at User:Wallyl22/sandbox.
 * Your best bet is to concentrate on one draft (preferably the first one, as that is the one on which you have already had feedback). Correct the points noted in the previous reviews, then resubmit.  To avoid confusion, I suggest that you blank the other pages (or for your sandbox you can undo your most recent edit on that page and thus go back to the redirect to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Joel S. Schuman, that redirect having been put in place when the draft was moved). --David Biddulph (talk) 16:46, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
