Please help me with... I want to publish the article that I created in my sandbox. How long I have to wait for that? How may I know that my article is under review for publication.? please help me out. Engjony 11:29, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

You edited the general sandbox, not your personal sandbox, so nothing has been submitted for a review. You can create a personal sandbox at User:Tapon Mahamud Jony/sandbox, but to create a draft you may use Articles for creation. However, be advised that attempting to write about yourself is highly discouraged, please read WP:AUTO. 331dot ( talk) 12:32, 31 December 2019 (UTC) reply

I have created my personal sandbox article too. Is it submitted for review? I did not get any notification.

It is still not submitted for review; I will shortly add the appropriate information to permit you to do so. However, if you were to submit your draft, I believe it would be rejected. You seem to be confused about what Wikipedia is. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not social media or other place to post your resume or things you have done. As an encyclopedia, Wikipedia summarizes what independent reliable sources state about people that meet Wikipedia's special definition of a notable person. Wikipedia is not interested in what a person wants to say about themselves. An interview with you is completely unacceptable as a source, as are sources that do not have significant coverage of you that goes beyond mentioning your name. Again, writing about yourself is strongly discouraged per WP:AUTO. In order for you to be successful at doing so, you essentially need to forget everything you know about yourself and only write based on the content of independent sources, sources you are not affiliated with whatsoever. While technically possible, I haven't seen it happen in my many years here. People also naturally write favorably about themselves, which goes against the neutral point of view Wikipedia strives for.

I would urge you to abandon this effort; however, if you wish to proceed, you may submit your draft for review. 331dot ( talk) 10:20, 6 January 2020 (UTC) reply

• You just need to click the blue 'submit this draft' button to formally submit it for review. As there are thousands of drafts waiting for review, which are done by volunteers in no particular order, it usually takes many weeks if not months, though there is a small chance it could be done sooner. 331dot ( talk) 10:22, 6 January 2020 (UTC). reply

Ok. I understand all. But Tapon is a public figure so I am writing about him. I am a girl who made this account with his name. I am his fan and want to publish my article about him so that the world could know about him.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:

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 people). 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 comment the reviewer left was:

This draft appears to be an autobiography, the submission of which is strongly discouraged. See the conflict of interest policy for more information.

If this draft is resubmitted, it is recommended that it be nominated for deletion. If this draft is not an autobiography, it may be resubmitted with an explanation on the draft talk page that it is not an autobiography.

It appears that this draft has been reference bombed with large numbers of low-quality sources.

The subject did not compete in the 2016 Olympics, which would qualify for sports notability, but took part in broadcasting the games, which is not notable.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Tapon Mahamud Jony and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Tapon Mahamud Jony, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{ db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
• If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by CaptainEek was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Not greatly improved since last submission, and the existing text is ref-bombed and doesn't show notability. This seems to be an average, run of the mill person, like you or I. If this article is about yourself, I recommend you focus on editing something else.
