My wikipedia draft of VirtualRealPorn, was denied and I would love to edit it so it could be accepted. How can i do it? DanielaCPR (talk) 08:22, 7 March 2018 (UTC) DanielaCPR (talk) 08:22, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * - Looks like it was deleted for blatent advertising. Every article needs to be written in a neutral tone, suitable for an encyclopedia.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 09:27, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

I would like to know why my page is declined? This is for promoting purpose so more people will get to know regarding the medical services that we offer. Adding on, this is for the services which is provided by our application. May I also know on which section I would need to work on for my page to be approved?

Ok, so, how can I edit it and submitted again for a review? DanielaCPR (talk) 10:13, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * - As above, the article itself was not declined, it was hard deleted. You could simply remake the draft, or request the admin who deleted the article to make the article live in draft space again. However, there if the article doesn't have all advertising removed, it will be deleted once again.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 10:28, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

perfect! Thank you. DanielaCPR (talk) 11:33, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

User_talk:NMLondon#Your_submission_at_Articles_for_creation%3A_sandbox_%28March_6%29

Hello there. Forgive the potentially silly question, but I thought I had followed the correct instructions to activate my sandbox. But the page was declined. Is that to be expected? Also, is it possible to change my user name to include my first name and not just my initials? Thanks a lot! NMLondon (talk) 14:43, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

 * I assume this is your submission (I couldn't find another one). It was blank (As in, it has no text), so it could never be accepted, as a draft into main space. A sandbox is somewhere where you can experiment (This is the correct place), however, you submitted it to become an article on Wikipedia. If you simply want to try out things, or want somewhere to store potential information for other pages, that's fine, but don't submit the article for review. I hope this helps. I'll post a link on your talk page regarding name changing.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 15:27, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your interest in Wikipedia. There is a difference -- a big difference -- between just "activating" your sandbox and submitting its contents for review.  By clicking the "submit" button that appeared when you created the sandbox, you submitted a blank draft for review.  We never accepted blank submissions, so it was declined and blanked of all its submission regalia.  If you want to actually write something that can be reviewed, you can still do so.  And after you feel you have something worthy of being looked at, add the User sandbox template to the top of the draft (including the curly brackets at the beginning and end of the template's name).  After saving the page, click the submit button. As for changing your user name, see WP:Changing username. I hope this response has been helpful.  If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

17:08:38, 7 March 2018 review of submission by Mortee
Could someone please take a look at this draft for me? I declined the original submission back in January on the grounds that notability wasn't established. The submitting editor has since added more references and it's been more than a month since their resubmission. I would prefer for another reviewer to assess it this time around as my impression is somewhat skewed by having reviewed it in its earlier state. If needed, I will revisit it myself, though. Mortee (talk) 17:08, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello, Mortee. I've reviewed (and declined) the submission.  NewYorkActuary (talk) 17:53, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * I've seen your review and I think it may be a little harsh. Your comment: " With all of the references coming either from the organisation that gives the awards or from people or institutions associated with the recipients," is true, but of course references would be associated with recipients, after all they are the ones who would find it notable. That's not against any wikipedia policies, it's just common sense about what kind of media prints what kind of story!. I think the page should be approved. Egaoblai (talk) 23:50, 13 March 2018 (UTC)

21:34:20, 7 March 2018 review of submission by I Have Always Been a Twin
Is Louis Tomlinson's family members such as Lottie Tomlinson and the twins channel on YouTube getting their own articles on Wikipedia while Gemma Styles does not have one? Can she be Draft:Gemma Styles? I think Gemma Styles needs one! Ah, well, I guess you can be my sandbox again, but I want a draft! --I Have Always Been a Twin (talk) 21:34, 7 March 2018 (UTC) I Have Always Been a Twin (talk) 21:34, 7 March 2018 (UTC)


 * @I Have Always Been a Twin: Draft:Squared is unnecessary. It duplicates the already-existing article, Squared (TV series). —C.Fred (talk) 21:47, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Request on 22:35:51, 7 March 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Rjstephan WP
My submission was declined and the comment the reviewer left was: bio doesn't pass WP:NHOOPS  My question is, what are the criteria for a professional basketball league to included in the NHOOPS list? The Japanese league is quite will respected with dozens of former and borderline NBA players. Thank You. Rjstephan WP (talk) 22:35, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Rjstephan WP (talk) 22:35, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi, the WP:NHOOPS is a link to the criteria for Basketball players on Wikipedia. I've transcribed below:


 * Basketball figures are presumed notable if they


 * 1.Have appeared in one game as either a player or head coach in the original American Basketball Association, Liga ACB, EuroLeague, National Basketball Association, National Basketball League (Australia), National Basketball League (United States), Lega Basket Serie A, Women's National Basketball Association, Greek Basket League, Israeli Basketball Premier League, ABA League (and its predecessor the Yugoslav Basketball League), or the VTB United League (and its predecessors the USSR Premier Basketball League and the Russian Professional Basketball Championship).


 * 2.Were selected in the first two rounds of the NBA draft.


 * 3.Have won an award, or led the league in a major statistical category of the Continental Basketball Association or NBA G League.

So, as he plays in the Japan second league, he doesn't meet any of these requirements.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 12:42, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
