09:00:32, 27 April 2018 review of submission by Sinusidharth2018[edit]

Submission declined on 12 February 2018 by Home Lander, since then i have made a plethora of changes and also added some reference also. Its been 22 days my draft is still not reviewed or made successfully published. Please help me to solve this out. Sinusidharth2018 (talk) 09:00, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Sinusidharth2018: You've done everything correctly, but that backlog is at ~8 weeks, so all you need at this time is patience. When it gets reviewed, however, it will probably be declined, as it primarily uses Wikipedia and IMDb as sources, which are not permitted per WP:USERGEN.

User:NotTheFakeJTP no need to wait to decline if you looked at it carefully. Legacypac (talk) 05:47, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

16:19:35, 27 April 2018 review of submission by Coolcam6578[edit]

While the draft is not completely ready, I question the starting content for this page compaired to another started contribution of mine, Worms 4 (2015 video game) . When creating that page, It had less content than the former draft; I had less experience back then. If creating new pages have changed as to how it gets processed, what makes this one different? Coolcam6578 (talk) 16:19, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Coolcam6578 - video games aren't my speciality but the draft appears to have no sources. Without any sources, I'm not sure how one would make a claim for Notability? KJP1 (talk) 17:33, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Coolcam6578 - The game may well be notable, but you need to make the case for this.Try searching google (Or otherwise for news reports on the game); I've added one to the draft for reference. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 15:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 19:55:44, 27 April 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by JW-e, solutions[edit]


I would like someone to review my recent submission of "Stephie James", as this is my first time.

Once minor question in particular--I'm trying to create a Bulleted List, so I type an Asterisk (*), and the Asterisk appears rather than the Bullet like it did before. What did I do wrong this time?


JW-e, solutions (talk) 19:55, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@JW-e, solutions: what page are you referring to? User:JW-e,_solutions/Stephanie_Hamood was deleted in 2016 because you left the draft untouched for many months; if you want that specific draft back, see WP:REFUND/G13. If you're talking about a different page, give us the link here.

20:33:49, 27 April 2018 review of submission by Krolg[edit]

Hello, I have created pages for two Czech producers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Martin_H%C5%AFlovec https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Ond%C5%99ej_Ber%C3%A1nek

but they were rejected because IMDB is "not a reliable source" may I ask what would be a reliable source for Czech filmmakers? There won't be any articles about them in Variety or such magazines because they do not work in Hollywood. I would basically just like to create and English language version of their Czech Wikipedia pages, is that not possible?

Thank you.

Krolg (talk) 20:33, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Krolg. Unfortunately, the Czech Wikipedia pages are poorly sourced, so simply creating English versions of them is not an option. Wikipedia:WikiProject Film/Resources doesn't suggest any sources specifically for Czech cinema, but the sources on that list may have some relevant coverage nevertheless. No doubt there are reliable Czech-language sources focused on national cinema, WikiProject Film may be able to direct you. Searching a good research university library for books about Czech cinema would also be worthwhile. --Worldbruce (talk) 05:02, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
