Welcome![edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (September 2)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Eagleash was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This subject may ultimately prove to be notable but the referencing should be sorted out. Discogs is not typically acceptable in support of notability and almost every reference contains an error message. Other volunteers should not really be expected to sort these out on behalf of the creator. (See WP:REFB for help in correctly adding sources). In addition if the creator has a connection to the subject please read WP:COI and make the necessdary declarations.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Coralgablesmedia/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to User:Coralgablesmedia/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Coralgablesmedia! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Eagleash (talk) 18:51, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Username & COI[edit]

Usernames cannot imply shared or corporate use. A change should be requested via WP:UNC or it is possible the account may be blocked from editing. Also, please do not overlook the 'conflict of interest' issue. Thank you. Eagleash (talk) 18:56, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And of even more importance, if you are representing a client, then the mandatory paid editing disclosure policy applies to you. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 19:01, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

September 2021[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames which give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual and which complies with our username policy or request a change of username.

You should also read our conflict of interest guideline and be aware that promotional editing is not acceptable regardless of the username you choose. Additionally, if your contributions to Wikipedia form all or part of work for which you are, or expect to be, paid, you must disclose who is paying you to edit.

Please also note that you are permitted to use a username that contains the name of a company or organization if it identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87".

If your username does not represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}} at the bottom of your talk page.

You may simply create a new account, but you may prefer to change your username to one that complies with our username policy, so that your past contributions are associated with your new username. If you would prefer to change your username, you may appeal this username block by adding the text

{{unblock-un|new username|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}

at the bottom of your talk page. Please note that you may only request a name that is not already in use, so please check here for a listing of already taken names.

Thank you. — JJMC89 (T·C) 15:56, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have requested a change in username so that my sandbox will stay intact! I'm an individual and don't have media ties - it was just an old handle I used for everything. Hoping the change will happen soon so that I can properly edit my 1st submission. Thanks!Coralgablesmedia (talk) 14:19, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rename from "Coralgablesmedia" to "Hastyj"[edit]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Dale Underwood (November 19)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by ThadeusOfNazereth was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Unfortunately, I don't the sourcing shows notability yet. The book by Harry Gee appears to primarily be an encyclopedic listing of saxophone soloists, and it forms the bulk of the sourcing here. I cannot find a copy of the article by Nathan Mensink or Timothy Roberts - If links can be attached to the references, that'll be a life-saver for verification, and if these are in-depth profiles or discussions, it'll be even better - Unfortunately, without being able to read them ourselves, we have no way to verify them. The other sources are primary or unacceptable in some other way (being shop pages, for example).

Just to leave another note - The writing is solid, it's just the referencing. Hopefully one more go-around will be enough! I'm also going to clean up the referencing slightly (you can reuse citations so that the bottom doesn't get cluttered). ThadeusOfNazereth^{Talk to Me!} 18:32, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Dale Underwood (February 22)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DoubleGrazing was:

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 comment the reviewer left was:

Without commenting on notability, I'm declining this on the basis of insufficient referencing. Too much of the content is unsupported: eg. the 'Academic teaching positions' section simply lists links to other articles, without citing a single source to back up the claims. Every material statement must be supported by reference to a reliable, independent source, so that the information can be verified. --

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
