03:32:10, 16 August 2017 review of submission by Christy.kwon
Hi. I am currently working on DFRobot article creation in English. After Severl times deletion, I had to ask someone to help me to create an article in English(because I am not native in English, and it was difficult to understand the policies). However, he found out that DFRobot is blocked editing. In terms of DFRobot article, I would like to ask few inquiries: 1) Is DFRobot really blocked editing? and Is there any possibility that I can still create an article under "DFRobot"? 2) If so, how can I restore draft(DFRobot) to revise article for creation? or could you please list any wikipedia policies that can help me to solve this problem?

Since wikipedia ask me to click so many pages, I am really confusing about what I should read and what exactly they want me to do. Thank you so much for your answer and help! I've worked on it so hard for last two months, and i deadly want to solve this problem. Have a nice day ahead!!!

 * Hello again, Christy. I'm not sure that I understand your question -- nobody has "blocked" your draft from being edited.  You are free to continue editing it, and to submit it for review when you think it is ready (you can do this by clicking the "submit for review" button in the box near the top of your draft).  However, you have been told repeatedly that your company has not achieved encyclopedic notability and that an article about it is unlikely to be accepted for publication.  And looking at the current version of your draft, I don't see how anything has changed.  If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.  NewYorkActuary (talk) 07:29, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Hello, Said-Ul-Auliya. Your draft is nearly blank.  Why does it need a title?  NewYorkActuary (talk) 14:01, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi there, I subbmited the article Thomas Jenuwein on July 19, the message received was that it will take a couple of weeks... at that time, there were nine hundred&something articles waiting in line. Now, one month later, there are one thousand five hundreds. I don't understand. Is there something that I should/could do? Many thanks for any help. Best regards, Marcela Mare

 * Hello, Marcela. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia.  As I type this, there are about 150 submissions in the queue ahead of yours.  I expect it will take the better part of a week before someone gets a chance to look at it.  In the meantime, I noticed that two of your six references are to Wikipedia articles.  No reviewer is going to accept that as a valid way to source a statement, so you might want to find some non-Wikipedia sources that back up your statements.  I hope this response has been helpful.

Please help me in identifying the issues with my user page submission.

 * Hello, Kamal. Thank you for your interest in Wikipedia.  Is there a misunderstanding here?  If all you want to do is set up a user page for yourself, you do not need to have it "approved" by us (or anyone else, either).  If that's the case, simply remove the submission templates that appear near the top of the page and copy the rest onto your User page here.  After that, nothing further needs to be done.  On the other hand, are you proposing that the material in your Sandbox should be an encyclopedia article?  If so, please be advised that it never will be, for the reasons stated by the two reviewers who already looked at it.  If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
