Request on 03:36:09, 27 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Nikhilraoactvis[edit]


why article submissioned by me was declined ? Nikhilraoactvis (talk) 03:36, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Nikhilraoactvis, we don't encourage people to write autobiographies on wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Autobiography. If you are notable enough, third party editors may write about you eventually. – robertsky (talk) 13:48, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Want to know what all should I include to make this page notable? Amhjn (talk) 04:45, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Amhjn You cannot make the subject notable, but you can demonstrate its notability by summarizing at least three independent reliable sources that have significant coverage of this topic(not just a brief mention or simple description) and have chosen on their own to write about it(not based on any materials put out by the topic like an interview, press releases, or their website) showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. Please read Your First Article and use the new user tutorial.
If you are associated with this company, please read about conflict of interest and paid editing. 331dot (talk) 08:29, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft has no sources whatsoever. Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about something. A Wikipedia article must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the restaurant, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable business. To get a draft accepted you need to have at least three sources with significant coverage, not based on any materials put out by the restaurant(such as staff interviews, press releases, or basic announcements). Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 08:54, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

14:13:54, 27 December 2021 review of submission by Cyan2021[edit]


The first version of the draft that I have uploaded in July had some quality issues, and it was soon tagged with the "excessive citations" and the "COI" templates.[1] Afterwards, I have removed all the excessive citations,[2] and, on my user page, I have declared in accordance with Wikipedia's terms of use that I am a paid editor[3] – I had not known that this disclosure is necessary (well, now I do!). I believe though that the template is meant to tag articles in which an editor has not chosen the path of disclosure – this renders the COI template obsolete in my case. Therefore, I believe that the templates should be removed. Now, I feel that I can only appeal these two templates, but I should definitely not remove them myself.

The reason why the draft had been declined in the first place was that "routine press coverage and announcements are not sufficient to establish notability."[4] The editor User:TheBirdsShedTears encouraged me to "add multiple reliable sources – independent of the subject" in order to demonstrate how the draft's subject is notable.[5] I have done exactly that by adding multiple references that clearly indicate substantial coverage of the topic in reliable sources.[6] These are not just passing mentions. Nonetheless, the article has been rejected this time which I think is not warranted.

I hereby appeal the rejection and kindly ask for reassessment.

Kind regards, Cyan2021 (talk) 14:13, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cyan2021 The draft was rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further at this time. Wikipedia is not a place to just tell about a company and what it does, but to summarize what independent reliable sources say about it. I fear you may be too close to your company to be able to write about it as Wikipedia requires. Please describe the three best sources in the draft with the best coverage that indicates how your company meets WP:ORG. 331dot (talk) 15:10, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hello 331dot! The draft cites at least three WP:SIRS-compliant sources: Fintechnews Switzerland (Source 1), FAZ (Source 3), and Handelsblatt (Source 9). I have already included a Google translation which is not perfect, but good enough to understand what these three sources say.

In the Fintechnews Switzerland source, the editorial staff decided to write an article about WebID Solutions because of a recent legal dispute. However, the article is not mainly about the legal dispute, it actually describes the company's history in significant detail, and puts the legal history into focus. So I'd say that it's warranted to believe that they consider WebID Solutions significant.

In the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung source, Helmut Bünder describes WebID Solutions on two pages. The first third of text outline how the employees work at WebID, the second third summarises key points of the company's history, and the last third describes how the company sees its future. Bünder has done a traditional journalistic job here: The article doesn't present the company (ie it's not an advert written like a newspaper article), it actually is a newspaper article that describes the company, both tone-wise and content-wise.

In the Handelsblatt source, Katharina Schneider delivers a more business-oriented description of WebID Solutions, especially regarding the 2018 corporate strategies. Nonetheless, the article also includes brief descriptions of who WebID Solutions are, what they do, and of course which financial figures apply to them.

I'd say that these three sources which are all independent, reliable, secondary, and most importantly, significant (no single-sentence mentions, but actual articles about the subject), definitely indicate notability. Kind regards, --Cyan2021 (talk) 13:20, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

14:48:26, 27 December 2021 review of submission by Alquduws[edit]


My Holy country deserves a Wikipedia page just as the other country’s in the world have one . . . . . Why do you not find it significant why do you think it does not qualify for a Article page? My Country is very great, I’m the highest noble in the world in every sense.

Condensed for brevity
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
***** The prophet Muhammad ( peace & Blessings be up on him ) His Writings & teachings ( from Allah ) ( God ) that have accumulated 3 Billion + Followers that all the Arab countries benefit forever from (Especially Saudi Arabia The location near Mecca 🕋) ( 3 Billion + Followers that came from my holy Blood & genetics, the fact that all the Arab/Muslim countries benefit forever from 3 Billion + Followers & Islam Especially Saudi Arabia the location near Mecca 🕋& the fact Kings & that many people follow the writings & teachings, the fact this makes me a King & a King of Kings & the fact that This religion brings structure, rule, order, faith, people, abundance of many things forever & more to these countries & They all use some type of systems that come from this religion *****  

There’s no one in the world that could top that.

Mecca & Medina does not belong to Saudi Arabia, it Belongs to the founding family of the religion of Islam ( the Dajani Family ) it’s claimed, It belongs to me A Accepted lineal descendant of the Prophet. Mecca & Medina is a territory of “Alquduws” ( The Holy Emirate ) & the world needs to know.

This is very significant, very important. Great history being made. Legendary. 

I would appreciate it if you could accept my draft & make it into a Article. Alquduws (talk) 14:48, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Alquduws Wikipedia is not a place to just tell the world about something. Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources say about a topic, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of notability. When independent sources choose to write about your country, that's when it would merit an article. If you want to tell the world about it, please use social media. 331dot (talk) 14:58, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 21:29:48, 27 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Ajmead99[edit]


Hello! I just finished my first article on Wikipedia written on DJ Code. It was declined and this was the memo I received as to why,

"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 subject I wrote about is a musician who has traveled all over, performed with big-time Christian artists, although most of his publicity is on social media. Even how he books new shows and events is via social media and email. He is definitely someone worth having a Wikipedia page on but is there a way I can site some sources or mention things that would help get my article approved?


Ajmead99 (talk) 21:29, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ajmead99, notability can't be created or forced. If secondary sources are not discussing the subject then Wikipedia can not have an article on them. You need to find sources unconnected to the subject. Slywriter (talk) 21:33, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

22:52:26, 27 December 2021 review of submission by Sebsox6[edit]

Hello! I'd like to ask whether the current draft meets the notability guidelines. There has been notable information added including reliable references, mainly regarding the Monopoly board game. Sebsox6 (talk) 22:52, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, and furthermore, the draft features notable information since it's part of programming for the G4TV network. Sebsox6 (talk) 23:38, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
