06:16:45, 13 March 2019 review of draft by Student9191[edit]


My previous draft of the article was rejected on grounds that it read too much like an advertisement and that it lacked sources. I have tried to improve based on the feedback since, but I was hoping I could get more pointers before I resubmit for review. Student9191 (talk) 06:16, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Student9191: I made some minor edits to clean up content and syntax, and added a source, but the article still needs more sourcing. TechnoTalk (talk) 20:27, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

hi, i have been trying to get this page approved for some time. Steve Carver is a legit artist- in addition to his painting and shows, his work has appeared in numerous magazines and publications. My references include the new york times magazine, the LA times magazine, Wired magazine.

one issue with referencing artists, especially covers and other pages that they have illustrated, is that the digitized version of the issue often omits the reference to the artist, instead only the text of the article has been digitized. Perhaps you are aware of this issue?

I am hoping that you can reconsider publishing the page for Steve Carver, given the numerous reference that I have been able to include?

thanks for your consideration

Thank You ALL for assistance. Firstly, I assume that Asaba-Ase is a relevant topic as it is an already established settlement in Ndokwa East area of Delta State. I don't know what to input into the article or it's draft and I am not sure if it is a relevant article or not and I need someone to PLEASE assist me check the whole thing and make recommendations. Let me also reveal that I have penchant to rubbish the entire thing if I am editing it myself without assistance and recommendations (i.e if the topic is relevant). There could be conflict of interest (I am maternally from Asaba, Delta while paternally, most of my paternal ancestors were mostly interred at Ase including my paternal grandma [Rose Udeteghe] who is a native of Iyede-Ame in the same Ndokwa East and thus, I assume myself as Asaba-Ase in human form. I consider acquiring expansive areas of swamplands in the area and nearby, settle there in, cultivate large expanse of tropical hardwood trees plantations, tropical Palm trees plantations and rubber trees plantations) I want to avoid adding unnecessary information if the article is relevant so please help me. Thanks (TroubledOne (talk) 17:38, 13 March 2019 (UTC))[reply]

@TroubledOne: Article cleaned up for grammar and syntax. I'd resubmit. TechnoTalk (talk) 18:39, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, am a new user. Would be great if you could help me resolve the errors I made while creating this document.

1) I received a mail which states that this submission is not supported by reliable resources and that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. 2) Second mail states that Image used in this article (Tel Ganesan-Headshot.jpg) is listed in Commons: Deletion Request. This is original photo of the person.

Hope someone can guide me on the next steps to rectify & submit this.

Many Thanks DU19 (talk) 18:46, 13 March 2019 (UTC)DU19 DU19 (talk) 18:46, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@DU19: I cleaned the article up a bit but it is still very deficient in sourcing. Please read WP:GNG. Also, since you are a new user and your first article is about someone you refer to by their first name, please ready WP:COI, particularly the disclosure section.

ErnestBaum (talk) 19:56, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am requesting help in regards to the Wiki for Ernest Hemingway. The reason for this is because I have done my best to ensure its accuracy, and ensuring that the information on it is as up to date as possible in regards to what we in academic circles now know about Ernest Hemingway. Unfortunately, this has proven hard as some facts about Hemingway which have not been disputed since 1987 clearly do not match the image some of my fellow wikipedia editors have of the man. Any attempt to introduce this, once again well established, information is met with near immediate deletion regardless of how well cited and researched it is. I am including below a copy of the edit, along with the citation, that has now been deleted. You will notice that I am careful and respectful in my speech, making sure to make no direct claims about Hemingway, and instead only provide an brief literature review of the perspectives that exist on the subject of his gender expression and his mental health.

If you wish to keep Wikipedia as factually true as possible, instead of it becoming a place where truth is treated as political, it is my belief you need to restore my edit, and ensure its future protection from those who have an agenda to further. Blow you will find a copy past of the most recent version of my edit. This edit was originally listed as a sub-subcategory, specifically section 1.11.

@ErnestBaum: This is a place to discuss rejected articles for creation. The discussion about Ernest Hemingway and the content you added that was reverted [[1]] should be on that article's talk page. TechnoTalk (talk) 20:36, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

21:31:41, 13 March 2019 review of draft by Reeveskd[edit]


I am attempting to understand the nature of "independent" sources when identifying the "notability" of the subject of an elementary school. Specifically, in this case, there are a number of published sources that identify Discovery Elementary as the largest zero-energy elementary school in the country, the first in Virginia, and one of the largest in the world. The citations at the bottom are individual references, and are independent of the school. What would be an appropriate reference source, if these items do not qualify? Looking forward to learning more!

Reeveskd (talk) 21:31, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES there is almost nothing you can add that shows an elem school is notable. You can expand the article on its school district with details on the individual school. Legacypac (talk) 04:06, 14 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Alban0l0gy (talk) 21:57, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Alban0l0gy: - if nothing else, the lack of independent and reliable sources is sufficient to prevent any chance of acceptance. There also needs to be significantly more content (What does it do, its history, its successes and problems etc) and it needs to be less promotional.
