00:53, 9 March 2024 review of submission by Peter Griffin Explains
Why did you decline it? I worked very hard on it. It took me 1 hour to write it Peter Griffin Explains (talk) 00:53, 9 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Because it wasn't an article, it was an essay. It was "what PGE thinks about this topic". DS (talk) 02:02, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

I do not understand why the article was declined for not  been adequately supported by reliable sources since it do includes several well known and reliable sources. Regards Igal Stulbach 2A10:8012:13:BCB4:DB:90A4:9757:57C4 (talk) 13:16, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

15:13, 9 March 2024 review of submission by Rcjqffm
It is still not clear to me/us in what way this article seems to be written in the 'style of an advertisement'. There is nothing to sell here. We, the 2 authors, have no personal interest, but want to inform readers about an important amendment of the Council of Europe's CEFR. So may I once again ask for more specific criticism so we can alter those items, parts, passages which seem to be out of line with Wikipedia policies. Thanks! Rcjqffm (talk) 15:13, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * You say you "want to inform readers about an important amendment of the Council of Europe's CEFR" that sounds precisely like advertising? Theroadislong (talk) 15:17, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

New editor so I may need just a bit assistance. Does this article require more suitable references? Should it be expanded as it's too short? Or a combination of both? Just trying to play it safe here haha. Xeno21x8 (talk) 17:34, 9 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Rejection means that it may not be resubmitted at this time. All the sources provided are about his company(not him personally) or are associated with him; there are no independent reliable sources with significant coverage of him, showing how he meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. 331dot (talk) 17:41, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Oh! I see, would you recommend I create an article about the company on that note? Xeno21x8 (talk) 17:44, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * If the company receives significant coverage in independent reliable sources, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable organization, an article may be possible. Sources cannot include brief mentions, staff interviews, press releases, announcements of routine business activities, or primary sources; sources should provide in depth coverage of what they see as important/significant/influential about the company- not what it might see as important about itself.  Please read Your First article. 331dot (talk) 17:54, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Please help me or guide me to published this article.I am new here I don't know any guide or policy. Akaayu (talk) 17:42, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Writing a new article is the most difficult task to perform on Wikipedia, and it's a good idea to learn some about Wikipedia first, by editing existing articles in areas that interest you, and using the new user tutorial. Diving right in to creating articles often leads to disappointment and frustration. Wikipedia is not a place to just document the existence of something and tell what it does- articles must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage choose to say about the topic, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability. 331dot (talk) 17:56, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

17:42, 9 March 2024 review of submission by Slasher2point1
Hi,

My page that I am looking to create for the wife of Tommy Nelson was rejected because Imdb is not considered a reliable source for verifying her film and TV roles. Would the Letterboxd work instead as a reliable source?

Thank you! Slasher2point1 (talk) 17:42, 9 March 2024 (UTC)


 * In a word, No. A reliable source is one that has a reputation for editorial control fact-checking. Letterboxd seems to be like GoodReads (and iMDB, and almost all wikis, including Wikipedia) in that its content is user generated. It is therefore not usable as a reliable source. Your absolute first task in creating an article (ideally before you write so much as a single word of it, so as to save you wasted work) is to find several (generally at least 3) sources, each of which meet all the criteria in WP:42.

Thank you for the clarity, this is greatly appreciated! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Slasher2point1 (talk • contribs) 17:17, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi ColinFine (talk), apologies, one more question. What would you suggest for a website then to verify roles as the main ones are IMDb and Letterboxd for actors? With her appearance on the Show High Maitenance, would it work better to site HBO itself (https://www.hbo.com/high-maintenance/season-2/8-ghost) or something from a website like Vulture (https://www.vulture.com/article/high-maintenance-episodes-ranked-worst-best.html). Any help would be greatly appreciated as the previous page I made was for a feature film actor and this is my first time making one with more shorts/television roles — Preceding unsigned comment added by Slasher2point1 (talk • contribs) 17:25, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Why is my submission keep getting rejected and the subject am writing about is notable Alexjames12 (talk) 18:53, 9 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Whatever the subject may be in the world, you have consistently failed to show that he meets that he meets Wikipedia's criteria for notability, and so the draft has been rejected, and will not be considered further. ColinFine (talk) 19:57, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

23:42, 9 March 2024 review of submission by Sdsds
The content at Gaganyaan-5 warrants moving it to draftspace. (See also Draft:Gaganyaan-4 and its talk page.) AFCH might allow doing this with appropriate messages posted to user talk pages, etc. Is this currently possible with AFCH, or do other helper scripts do this task?
