 * - From your draft, which was almost blank beyond the title, it's not clear what content you think an article on 1931 in Boston should contain. You'll need to put in more detail, with sources, to show why a page on that city in that particular year might be suitable as an article. KJP1 (talk) 05:40, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Because this is my first time publishing and I have no idea what I am doing. I need help editing this to have it posted. It was apparently rejected and I am not sure how to make the article publishable. I need help fixing it so it does not get deleted there is important information to the article.

 * - I put the article up for deletion as it appeared to be an attack page against a college. The administrator agreed and it was deleted. It won't be published on here as Wikipedia isn't a place for you to pursue a campaign. KJP1 (talk) 05:37, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Ok so then how do obtain help to make the article publishable? It was not for an attack it was to make the information available in one place as I was involved in the process of all of what happened. I appreciate the feedback. Stubbysquid (talk) 05:48, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * The draft won't be published as it isn't suitable material for Wikipedia. KJP1 (talk) 05:50, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

If you want to write original content about Bellevue College employment practices, find a newsblog which is interested, or create a page in MySpace, LiveJournal or similar site. Your content is not even remotely encyclopedic, and has no place here. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  01:53, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

I have one article in the sandbox that belongs to the company named TIL Limited. This organisation is a renowned organisation in India. I have provided some reference links. I need some from this group let me know what reference could be used as notable reference for this kind of organisation. It will be a great help for me. Rayan.smith008 (talk) 06:19, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * - There are a number of issues with the draft:
 * Citing sources - You've put all your references in the draft's infobox. That's not where they go. Please have a look at this, Help:Referencing for beginners, and this, Citing sources, which tell you how to cite sources.
 * Significant coverage - your references are not very strong, being mostly basic company listings from Bloomberg, Reuters etc. I think you'll need better sources that give "significant coverage" if you want the draft accepted.
 * Conflict of interest - I see this is the only page you've worked on. Do you have a connection to the company? If you do, you need to declare a conflict and follow our guidance on Conflict editing here, Conflict of interest.
 * Hope this helps. KJP1 (talk) 06:42, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Dear David There was a proposal for deletion can you suggest me what is wrong with the article and i have given proper citations Karthik86098 (talk) 06:24, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
 * - The reviewer highlighted issues with the references, and these need to be addressed. Basically, you need stronger sources. But there is also a second, big, problem. Wikipedia articles take a Neutral viewpoint. Your draft doesn't. It is very promotional and is written from a totally supportive viewpoint. Unless this is changed, the draft won't be accepted. Hope this helps. KJP1 (talk) 06:52, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

I am writing this article on behalf of TIL Limited, but my content is getting rejected because of TIL Limited is not being a notable organisation. I need some reference from your end which you reckon as a notable organisation as TIL limited was established in the year 1944 and into this business for a significant time span. I am looking for a convincing reply that I can show to TIL management for not being selected as a notable organisation.

 * Please read david.moreno72's most recent comment on your draft. Wikipedia requires significant coverage in published, reliable, secondary sources, not just mere mentions. Do not resubmit until this problem is addressed.  JTP (talk • contribs) 14:25, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Can an editor create a wikipedia page for myself as an artist?

Hi! Could I have some assistance regarding sources? In particular criteria sources need to fulfill in order to establish a person's notability? I'm having a hard time assimilating all the different Wikipedia guides. Thank you!

 * , you need multiple independent published reliable sou7rces that discuss the topic is some detail. What does that mean?
 * First of all the sources need to be independent. Not press releases, not interviews with Beck or any of his associates, and not "news" stories that seem to be largely based on press releases and interviews, with little or no independent reporting.
 * The sources need to be reliable. Not blogs, not fan sites, not personal web sites, not directories or top-ten lists, not social media, and not an online forum or wiki. Sources that have a reputation for fact checking and editorial supervision, so that there is more than one person who says that the story is worth publishing. Major newspapers and magazines are usually good, including their online versions.
 * Detail: Each source must devote significant space to discussing Beck, not just mention him or his company. Three or four paragraphs at least in each such source. There should be at least three or four such sources.
 * Once you have your major sources chosen, write the draft based on what the sources say, but never copying or closely paraphrasing any of them.
 * Additional, non-major, sources can be adde4d that don't meet the above conditions, but that are reliable and that do support specific facts that belong in the draft article.
 * Any opinions or value judgements must be attributed to a specific named person or organization, and must be cit4ed directly. So must any quotations. This includes adjectives such as "renowned" or "expert".
 * You need to decide if the article is to be about Beck, or about his company. At present it says it is about Beck, but a lot of it is about the company. If it is to be an article about Beck, focus on what he did and experienced.
 * I* hope that is helpful. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 23:41, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
