 * Hi {{U|96.48.126.147}}. You are referring to Mike Hindert (the article edited by {{U|MikeHindert}} and {{U|Merrifield Records}})? And? Anthony Burulcich, Marshall Gallagher, or Patrick McWilliams? The draft was deleted for being exclusively promotional, such that it would need to be fundamentally rewritten to be neutral. The good news about that is that if, as you say, the band meets WP:BAND criterion #6, someone without a conflict of interest may be able to write an acceptable article about it. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:58, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Request on 04:42:22, 22 April 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Amr247rn
Hello, I was working on Draft:Constantine_Mavroudis through many revisions as I am a first time author. My last editor deleted my work, saying it was promotional. I am just new; and I am feeling defeated. I read a similar submission on Redmond Burke, also a congenital heart surgeon, and it had the same tone as my submission. I have had great feedback from previous editors and am completely willing to make suggested changes. I am gracefully asking for my article back from deletion if this is at all possible. I am hoping not to start over from scratch as I had a lot of good help up to the point of deletion. Thank you. Amr247rn (talk) 04:42, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Hi . See the essay Why was the page I created deleted?. You can follow the procedure outlined there to ask for the draft to be undeleted. But it was deleted for being exclusively promotional, such that it would need to be fundamentally rewritten to be neutral, so the deleting admin has effectively already told you that if you wish to continue writing about the topic you should start over from scratch.


 * You've been working on the draft for two years, and have never edited another article. Rather than rushing to recreate the draft, take some time to reflect on whether you're here to build an encyclopedia. If you are, you can find constructive ways to help at Community portal. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:32, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

I have found some sources for the draft, but it's almost impossible to submit the draft. Please help me in such advice. RevinCBHatol (talk) 05:41, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi, I'm wondering why this article has been declined for publication. It seems relevant in light of other entries of this nature such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dash_(cryptocurrency). Please advise so I can bring the article up to standard if required. Cheers, Dave Elurevad76 (talk) 09:02, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi The draft was rejected (unlike declined, rejected is meant to be final) for not being notable, and moreover, for being contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. Most likely, the reviewer had in mind not an advertising platform and neutral point of view. The essay WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS may help you understand why reviewers aren't swayed by comparisons with other topics. "Relevance" is not one of the criteria for determining whether a subject should be included in the encyclopedia.


 * General sanctions covering all content related to blockchain and cryptocurrencies were implemented in May 2018. My impression is that those sanctions have damped down the creation of new articles in the domain. It's best to take the long view. There is no deadline. In a decade or two it will have become clear whether Cardano has the lasting importance that merits inclusion in an encyclopedia, or is merely a footnote in the dustbin of history. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:58, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

I am creating a wiki page for a school and the school anthem are picked up as copyrighted eventhough it was referenced. how do I change this?

Bvbemarking (talk) 13:06, 22 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi . The school anthem is the least of Draft:Hoërskool Ben Viljoen's problems. Articles should be based mainly on independent sources (not the school's website). If the draft were trimmed down to what comes from third-party sources, it would be blank. So start by finding what has been written about the school in reliable sources like books, newspapers, and magazines. See WikiProject Schools/Article guidelines for more advice. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:25, 22 April 2019 (UTC)


 * The username is a violation of the username policy, "bemarking" is "marketing" in Afrikaans. Thus there are also COI and PAID issues that need to be cleared up. Pinging,  and  as involved reviewers. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 16:50, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Essentially this is my great grandfather and I believe he deserves recognition for his discoveries, it most definitly is true that he discovered this mountain as it is well known in my family and on the wikipedia page for Mount Isherwood, which he is credited with the discovery of the mountain, thank you. TylerJGaffney22 (talk) 15:18, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi . Having a mountain named after him is considerable recognition, and he's mentioned in Mount Isherwood. It may not be possible to find sufficient independent, reliable, secondary sources to construct a biography that would meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria.


 * What has been written about his work as a geophysicist on the U.S. Antarctic Research Program (USARP) South Pole-Queen Maud Land Traverse II, 1965-66, and on the Marie Byrd Land Survey 1966-67? Was he the son of Clara May Isherwood? Was he from Verona Pennsylvania? Was he a machinist's mate third class in company B of the 30th US Navy Construction Battalion, serving in the Americas during WWII? Your family and a genealogical librarian might be able to help you piece together his life story, but it's likely to be based on primary sources, so unsuitable for Wikipedia. You may wish to consider alternative outlets, such as FamilySearch, which has different inclusion criteria. --Worldbruce (talk) 16:58, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I submitted this article for review 2 months ago and I was wondering how much longer should i wait for a review? Can someone Help Me?

Thanks in advance!

Digohaha (talk) 15:44, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I have added another source in English, whilst references don't have to be in English it might help to establish notability if you could find more? Also read WP:BAND. Theroadislong (talk) 15:54, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

This is a history of the tax law that affects a large portion of New York State.

It has been modified over many months with input from to conform with wikipedia standards.

Can you tell me why you/StraussInTheHouse writes: this is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.

I would love to modify it to not be contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. It is written about in the New York Times and it simply was not documented in wikipedia for a long time but it is a part of history and should be documented similar to the tax laws in California etc.

Is it better placed in a wikimedia project? https://wikimediafoundation.org/our-work/wikimedia-projects/ Ryozzo (talk) 17:42, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi . Wikipedia is the correct Wikimedia project in which to pursue this. It might help to find a community of editors within Wikipedia who would be interested in the draft. I know you haven't had much luck finding experienced co-authors so far, but you could try WikiProject Law, or if you're in NYC, Meetup/NYC/About. --Worldbruce (talk) 04:51, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

Is this source considered primary/secondary/tertiary? Is it considered reliable/unreliable? White, J.T., National Cyclopedia Of American Biography

Meweiu (talk) 20:52, 22 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi . The National Cyclopaedia of American Biography is much like Marquis Who's Who, in that most of its content was provided by the person profiled or their family (and it doesn't say what is independent). So editors are likely to consider it comparable to a self-published source - reliable only for uncontroversial details. It would not help establish notability. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:56, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
