15:08:17, 10 February 2022 review of draft by Thatnsukkaboy
Hello, I really feel like my last few articles on here have been reviewed by bots, and declined at every turn. My draft meets up with wikipedia's guidelines to the best of my knowledge and i ensured i ran it through tone checking softwares before submitting to ensure its neutrality but as sual its decline for the same thing. Sometimes, we write about people who are very notable here, people who are verifiable and it gets turned down for not being notable or for not having telaible sources. The sources we often use are our own reliable sources and they are very reliable here. If anyone would care to help, i will appreciate a list of sources that are reliable when it comes to news about Nigerians and Nigeria. Outrightly declining without advicing on how to make articles better can frustrate an editor. Help Us Please!! Thatnsukkaboy (talk) 15:08, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * On your user page you say that you are a "Digital Marketer" please be sure to disclose any conflict of interest or paid editing that you may be involved with, per the terms and conditions. Theroadislong (talk) 15:16, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * As long as you have uncited biographical claims and rely too much on her own words, many of which are not properly attributed as quotes must be, this is going to keep being declined. —A little blue Bori  v^_^v  Jéské Couriano 17:16, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * There is a list of sources at WikiProject Nigeria/Nigerian sources. I can't vouch for its being entirely up-to-date but it looks like a good place to start. But remember that even a reliable source is not always useful to support a particular fact. Make sure that you have read the info at the main Reliable sources guideline page.
 * Disclosing any conflict of interest you have takes priority over that, mind. I also wonder who "we" are when you say "we write about people [...] the sources we often use". --bonadea contributions talk 08:21, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I would like to understand how is my draft an unambiguous promotional article? so that I can improve on it.

Please kindly advise.

 * , probably because it is sourced to the subject and reads like a brochure for the subject. Wikipedia doesn't care what an organization has to say about itself, we do care what independent secondary reliable sources say.Slywriter (talk) 15:25, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Your draft was rejected and has previously been deleted 5 times, it won't be reviewed again so it is pointless to improve it. Theroadislong (talk) 15:39, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

I am entering language for an article and the template will no longer accept additional language. How can I paste in the additional article language to complete the draft AfC? BrickBelltower (talk) 17:56, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * I fixed your link(the url is not needed). There should be no limitations on the content you can put in a draft. What is the message you get when you try to edit? 331dot (talk) 18:01, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Request on 20:05:44, 10 February 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Keithduross
Hello,

I've been tasked to pick up where many before me have not been able to get approval on the owner of my company's profile (Michael Amini), to be considered for Wikipedia. The latest message back (after being denied), was for - 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. The thing is that the sources include WSJ and LA Times and just about every single Furniture-focused trade publication. I was wondering if you had any suggestions as to teh best practices on getting approval when receiving this sort of message. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you, Keith

 * For eight months, you have been trying to push this advertisement for your obscure boss of an obscure company. In that time, you have still refused to post any of the mandatory disclosures of your blatant and obvious conflict of interest, which makes you an undisclosed paid editor. --20:11, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
 * We are not interested in a rerun of the Seigenthaler incident. Any biographical claim that could potentially be challenged for any reason what-so-ever MUST be cited to an in-depth, third-party source with strong editorial oversight that corroborates the claim or (if no such sources can be found) removed wholesale. This is a hard requirement when writing content about living or recently-departed people and is NOT NEGOTIABLE. In addition, disclosure is MANDATORY. —A little blue Bori  v^_^v  Jéské Couriano 20:12, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
