01:42:25, 20 May 2020 review of submission by MaryDowningKate
I would like to know why my article was denied. My great-grandmother founded the neighborhood and I am using her a primary source. Other articles have been published on Wikipedia about other neighborhoods in Columbus, Georgia, For example, Green Island neighborhood (and that page does not have any references) MaryDowningKate (talk) 01:42, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , As already stated on my talk page, your sources do not demonstrate notability. Neighborhoods such as this are rarely notable. We would need to see significant coverage of the neighborhood in multiple reliable and secondary sources. Also, please see WP:INN. If you have issues with another article, you can tag it appropriately or nominate it for deletion. Sulfurboy (talk) 03:53, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

07:44:45, 20 May 2020 review of draft by ThisIsACreeper0101
I need help regarding a cite. I was editing the page Draft:BeastBoyShub adding some proper references. And I realize, nearly all of the content on the page is sourced from several videos from the channel itself. I needed to cite the proper timings on the videos, but I can't submit it since  is blacklisted. How do I cite them? User:ThisIsACreeper0101 (T • C | Fandom ) 10:49, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I didn't quite understand everything clearly. I meant, I can't use the site  in , since it's blacklisted. So how do I cite YouTube videos? And ould I get a reply to this text in clear words? Thanks! User:ThisIsACreeper0101 (T &bull; C | Fandom ) 10:49, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * URL shorteners such as  are blacklisted, but full length   URLs are not. The technical difference doesn't really help the draft because YouTube is a generally unreliable source, so should not be cited and does not help establish notability (suitability for inclusion in Wikipedia). Moreover, if the links you want to add are to content created by BeastBoyShub, they are not independent. The bulk of any article should come from independent sources. Wikipedia doesn't much care what BeastBoyShub says about BeastBoyShub. It's looking for what sources like books, academic journals, and newspapers say about BeastBoyShub. If such sources say nothing, then Wikipedia should not have an article about BeastBoyShub. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:50, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Ah. I get it now. Alright; I'll try find sources other than just YouTube. User:ThisIsACreeper0101 (T &bull; C | Fandom ) 15:59, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

What is missing from the references? What do you want to check?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Alaamri.ae/sandbox    ( This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources. )

please told me what i do Please tell me what you want specifically from the references .. Anything specifically from the article I must bring a reference for it? thank you ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alaamri.ae (talk • contribs) 08:41, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi . For starters, the draft contains no references. There is an external links section, and perhaps you intended them to be used as references, but when you put them in a section called "External links" you are basically telling the reader that you didn't use them as references. If they are, in fact, where you got all your information, you could change the section heading to "References", but that wouldn't be enough to make the draft acceptable because they are trivial coverage of Al Aamri, so they don't demonstrate that he is notable (suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia).


 * If you can find multiple, independent, reliable, secondary sources that contain significant coverage of Al Aamri (not just quote him), then you may be able to justify an article. Then, because he's a living person, you would need to add an inline citation supporting almost every sentence (reviewers are a sceptical bunch, so you can expect almost every statement you make about him to be challenged).


 * If you are Al Aamri, or are closely connected to him, it's a really bad idea to try to write an encyclopedia article about him. If you are determined to be foolish, then at a minimum you should disclose the nature of your connection on your user page. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:16, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

11:43:23, 20 May 2020 review of draft by Nycinuk
Hi - I am very confused why this keeps on getting rejected.

This is a major major development in central London that I walk past when I go to work every day. It's huge and a massive landmark and should be on Wikipedia. It also includes Denmark Street which is world famous. I don't see how my post reads like an advertisement - there is no hyperbole, no inflated claims nor anything that isn't verifiable from the extensive list of citations I have put together and includes coverage in major mainstream UK media for example The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times, the London Evening Standard, The Independent, Sky News, CityAM etc all reflecting the fact this is a major development with a footfall of millions and is of public interest.

Could I please ask you to re-review?

Nycinuk (talk) 11:43, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 * The draft has not been rejected it has been declined 4 times for reading like an advert, and you have still not addressed the concerns about undeclared paid editing. Theroadislong (talk) 17:42, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

I am an artist and authoring myself the article as it relates to my being an artist. I understand the COI maybe I forgot to include COI statement somewhere? Thank you for your assistance.Carlos A Lagos (talk) 12:41, 20 May 2020 (UTC) Carlos A Lagos (talk) 12:41, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

I'm going to ping the deleting admin, if he has some aditional advice. For the monent I want to tell you two things: First, Wikipedia maintains a neutral point of view and second, all contents must be verifiable.

Request on 13:25:34, 20 May 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Chimpwithcans
I am trying to create an article/page for a band in Kenya. The Nairobi Hootenanny. It has been playing since 1967, has had albums made, continues to be the foremost folk group in Kenya and a big part of the Nairobi social and musical scene - but my article was rejected because there is not a lot of coverge of the band out there.

They have an active Facebook page, and they still play pretty regularly.

My question is - should they be classified as something other than a musician? Perhaps something cultural?

They are a large part of Nairobi social life and have contributed millions to charity over the last 50 years.

Any help in classification and publication would be much appreciated.

Chimpwithcans (talk) 13:25, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi . If there is not a lot of coverage of the band (not multiple, independent, reliable, secondary sources containing significant coverage of them) then nothing else you've said about them matters, they should not be the subject of a Wikipedia article. The encyclopedia summarizes what those kinds of sources have said, so if there are no such sources, we may not write anything. Note that the sources need not be in English, and need not be online. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:39, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

13:36:59, 20 May 2020 review of draft by FICM2020
Hello, I wrote an article but it seems that I have written a french article on the english wikipedia... How can I ask to submit my article on the french wikipedia without rewritting the article. Thank you, FICM2020 (talk) 13:36, 20 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi . I believe there is already an article in French about that topic under the name fr:Festival interculturel du conte du Qu%C3%A9bec. If you have additional information about it, you may add it there. If the two are not the same thing, you may create fr:Festival interculturel du conte du Montréal and paste there the content you wrote. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:32, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

20:41:50, 20 May 2020 review of draft by Katecmorrison
Hello - I am writing to ask if someone could help me with my edit of this article. It has been declined as apparently the tone is not neutral enough for an encyclopedia article. I think I have identified the points which need amending or deleting but I would really like to check this with someone if advice is available, to give myself the best chance of getting it right with the next submission. If anyone is available to advise me I would be very grateful. I have noted the points I think may be problematic below and it would be great if anyone could confirm if these are breaching the formal / neutral tone guidelines.

Many thanks.

On the article I submitted for publishing, there was a comment asking questions about the article. To resubmit, do I answer these questions within the article? If not, where do I answer them? Also, it was declined for not showing significant coverage; but three references were included. What more should I be looking to add?
