i dont get why you declined it im trying to start a new religion is that okay.

@Naturalism123: You are welcome to start a new religion. This is not the place to write about it, however. Wikipedia is neither a publisher of original thought, nor a soapbox or means of promotion. See WP:NOT for more information. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:53, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My question is regarding the following Wikipedia comment on my draft page: .[4](Subject not listed at World Swing Dance Hall of Fame Special Recognition Awards.)

Non-public information of non-editors redacted

I have a phone call into Jim Tiggies right now and am awaiting a call back.
Is the "World Swing Dance Hall of Fame" really a Hall of Fame or not? It is currently listed in Wikipedia "Swing Dance Hall Of Fame"
I sent the following question to Marchjuly yeaterday: Why didn't Theroadislong ask Skippy or her Assistant why my Special Recognition Award wasn't listed on their web site? The award is hanging on the wall in my home. I also included in my References a video of the award being presented to me. And yet I keep getting comments from Wikipedia telling me there is no proof I received the award.
Why aren't all other "Special Recognition Award" winners listed on their web site between 2010 and 2015?
Something is wrong here.

Why on earth would you think it proper for me to contact either people to ask such a thing!!!! You have clearly not read any of the helpful advise you have received from a large number of editors over a long period of time. It is also highly inappropriate to list peoples email addresses and telephone numbers here please can they be redacted by an admin. Theroadislong (talk) 21:36, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 21:45:29, 16 May 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by 176.106.230.28[edit]


I submitted a post for an Israel based gap year program called "Yeshivat Migdal HaTorah" and it was rejected on account of being "non-notable". I am confused how this can be the case, as every other comparable Israel gap-year program has their own page. Help?176.106.230.28 (talk) 21:45, 16 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your role as the author of the article is to prove its notability. Therefore, you ought to explain the significance of the program through the addition of sources. This program may well be notable, but please explain how it is notable and back it up. st170etalk 01:41, 17 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
