I have improved the formatting, and moved the draft to Draft:Vineeth Manuel, as I can find no evidence that "C" is part of his name. Maproom (talk) 14:48, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

08:07:37, 12 August 2015 review of submission by Whitecatger[edit]


Hi, after I put in some more (in my opinion relevant and neutral) sources and references, including the utilization by the NASA, my article about the Halcon Software was rejected again. The reason for this was stated as "Only one source seems to directly relate to the subject." I am wondering if someone could review these sources/references again closely, as they clearly are just this software and its applications/functions. Sure, in the titles of the references, it is sometimes called "vision software" or "vision" or something similar, so you don't see "Halcon" in all the references' titles at the first glimpse. However it gets clear when reading the content.

I put a lot of time and effort in finding and reviewing these references, so please understand that I would like a more detailed feedback resp. a re-review of these.

If you think that the article should be improved in terms of naming "Halcon" in the reference titles as well, I will be happy to do that! Please let me know.

Thanks for your time and your response!

Hello, i wrote an article about prof. Itzchak Weismann. i sent it to review and it was rejected because i didn't use 'reliable sources'. i am not entirely sure what does that mean. it is the biography of an individual and a short description of his work. thanks, Ziv

The feedback box at the top of your draft, and the message on your user talk page, each mention "reliable sources" in blue. The blue colouring indicates that it is a wikilink, in this case to WP:reliable sources. You ought to read that. --David Biddulph (talk) 14:39, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

15:01:48, 12 August 2015 review of submission by Cylons4life[edit]


Hi, I am working on the wiki article Child Find of America. There was previously an article with this title that was removed that linked to the page on Gloria Yerkovich, its founder. The draft I submitted was denied because of lack of notability. I'm currently looking for more sources to add to the article and I was wondering if I could get some advice on where I should look since the Evening News articles don't seem to be enough. I found a video of the current executive director speaking at the White House for a conference on missing children in 2002: http://www.c-span.org/video/?172967-7/care-missing-children. Can I use this? Is the Evening News too small of a paper to contribute to the article's notability? Cylons4life (talk) 15:01, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Cylons4life: Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL may bear fruit for you. Please see WP:PRIMARY or possibly WP:SELFPUB for the video. It might be acceptable. Fiddle Faddle 20:50, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

no Unnecessary. No-one is preventing you from writing this. However, you may not be the best person to write it because he is known to you personally. Fiddle Faddle 20:47, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I accidentally submitted this article twice for review at the same time. Please accept only one submission.

Not to worry, all is now as it should be. Fiddle Faddle 20:45, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a few other items but am still having trouble how to add to the existing reference list in order to support what I have included as new information. 199.20.44.50 (talk) 21:12, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
