hey how are you doin!

so for the personal life part, they dont want the kids to know about the whole surrogacy thing as the family wishes for it to be private. Are you okay with leaving that part out? Antwan123123 ( talk) 06:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Do you have a conflict of interest here? The content is in the public domain and was well sourced. Theroadislong ( talk) 06:58, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I’m a family friend. I’m being told the family does not wish to let the kids know about their surrogacy on social media and wishes to tell their kids in private when the time is right. I understand the article about the kids is public news but they should learn about it from their parents, not the internet, hence why I deleted it. I hope you understand 2603:8000:C33E:B968:8053:2894:B4B:618A ( talk) 07:28, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello,

I've added the references which were missing in my previous article. That's why I deleted your maintenance template and requested a review for publication. DXK34 ( talk) 07:43, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

We don't delete comments, you are free however to click the re-submit button at Draft:Martin Burckhardt (architect). Theroadislong ( talk) 07:46, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

There is no such a button. DXK34 ( talk) 07:51, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Because your edits removed it! I have added it back for you. Theroadislong ( talk) 07:53, 10 May 2024 (UTC) reply

But the page already exists? TwentyTwilve ( talk) 08:31, 11 May 2024 (UTC) TwentyTwilve ( talk) 08:31, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Yes TwentyTwilve! Here it is Fabiana Palladino, so why are you creating a draft? Theroadislong ( talk) 08:52, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

The existing article is about an album, whereas the draft seems to be about the artist (somewhat confusingly, by the same name). I only twigged that when I noticed that TwentyTwilve had recently wikilinked the artist's name in the album article. -- DoubleGrazing ( talk) 08:58, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

There is also another draft here Draft:Fabiana Palladino (album), very confusing! Theroadislong ( talk) 09:02, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

If a person article is notable then the album needs to be moved to (album) and a person article created, which is what I drafted. TwentyTwilve ( talk) 09:14, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

It all comes from me clicking on a link in Personal Life of Pino Palladino which went to his daughter’s album not the person TwentyTwilve ( talk) 09:17, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

@ TwentyTwilve: possibly, but not necessarily. And that still doesn't mean you should create new Draft:Fabiana Palladino (album) when an article on that subject already exists. And certainly not by copypasting the contents from that existing article. -- DoubleGrazing ( talk) 09:17, 11 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Fair comment about 'exclusive' and 'prestigious' - I shall remove the word(s) altogether Thanks for the contribution. Nigel PG Dale ( talk) 09:09, 12 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi! I've edited the page many times. I have added links as required by the rules from known sources. But the page keeps getting rejected. They write that supposedly I do it for money, but NO, I do it on my own initiative, I don't work with wikipedia for money! But the people who reject a page that I've been trying to create for over a year, then they write to me in private messages with offers to create a page for money! Where is justice?????

Hi Theroadislong,

Thank you for reviewing the article on Davinder Pal Singh and for your feedback regarding notability. I have added a new reference that provides substantial coverage of Davinder Pal Singh and his work with the Panjab Digital Library:

"ਜਾਣੋ ਕੌਣ ਬਣਾ ਰਿਹਾ ਹੈ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਦੀ ਡਿਜ਼ੀਟਲ ਲਾਇਬ੍ਰੇਰੀ ਅਤੇ ਕੀ ਹੈ ਇਸ 'ਚ ਬੇਹੱਦ ਖਾਸ" - News18 Punjab. This article discusses in detail the significant contributions of Davinder Pal Singh in establishing and leading Asia's first and Punjab's largest digital library, highlighting his vision and the impact of his work. Link to the article

This reference should help establish the notability of Davinder Pal Singh and provide a more comprehensive view of his contributions to digital preservation and cultural heritage.

Could you please review the updated article? If there are still any issues or additional improvements needed, kindly let me know. Your guidance is much appreciated.

Thank you!

Best regards,

Hey, please revise the article, because a string of information has been corrected and a string of independent sources have been added. I have also removed promotional information and press release sources. It seems dubious on such short notice to have an analysis done on the article. Thanks! DanikS88 ( talk) 17:34, 14 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Sorry, I really wasn't paying attention to the USA Today article, but in addition to this article I included others that are indepentent. Still I think it's notable for wikipedia being an app with over 1 million downloads. Thanks! DanikS88 ( talk) 17:42, 14 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Having an app with 1 million downloads confers zero notability see WP:NCORP for the criteria. Theroadislong ( talk) 17:45, 14 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I didn't mention that once it has X number of downloads it is notable. I just made a clarification. On top of all that though I have included a string of independent articles that can keep the article under the stub format. Thanks! DanikS88 ( talk) 17:50, 14 May 2024 (UTC). reply

Reviewers tend to take a tougher line when paid editing is evident. You are free to resubmit for other opinions, I will not review again. Theroadislong ( talk) 18:06, 14 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I'm not part of a paid editor, so I tried to combat a string of obviously promotional edits to this article. But I'm just learning (and in some cases making mistakes), but I'm always open for discussion and learning. Thanks! DanikS88 ( talk) 18:13, 14 May 2024 (UTC) reply

FYI, I've reported the editor to AIV. Whether it's AUTOBIO or UPE, either way its Mouyal's flagrant self-promo, and I reckon enough's enough.

Also requested for the photos to be deleted from Commons, as they're clearly in copyright. -- DoubleGrazing ( talk) 09:28, 16 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello, Recently I submitted a wikipedia page for a TV that has been around for more then 1 year now. My submission was rejected by you. My references come from The Dispatch, The Star (The Toronto Star) and International Journalism Festival.

Could you please leave a more detailed feedback and let me know how I can improve my page so it gets approved?

Thanks Akbarirazia ( talk) 13:33, 17 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Your draft Draft:Amu Television was declined not rejected which has a different meaning here. I suggest you remove the spam links to their website, we don't use any external links in the body of an article, we also have little interest in their "mission' we need to know what reliable independent sources have said about them, not merely report what they do. See [WP:NCORP]] for the criteria. Theroadislong ( talk) 14:49, 17 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I recently was working on an article on Teatro Yerbabruja, and mistakenly added a non-reliable source. I removed it, but it still shows up when I read it. How do I get rid of it? Exuperantia ( talk) 14:02, 18 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello, Im writing you as well since it's importent for me.. can you please have a look at the sources... below is a short summry since maybe due to the sources being in Hebrew it wasnt clear they are independent as well as many of them are significanty on Benjamin Freidenberg himself only... below are 5 examples, if you need more, I can add: 1. Hebrew University - one of the top 3 uni' in Israel, very independent 2. Yad Vashem - Please read about it, couldnt be more independent 3. globes - One of the top 3 news websites in Israel, also very independent 4. bezalel - ezalel Academy of Arts and Design Jerusalem 5. taufilmfest - this is Tel-Aviv International Student Film Festival, very major in Israel. Please have a look.. this is 2nd declined and I did add sources following the first. Thank you, Li-reg ( talk) 21:04, 20 May 2024 (UTC). reply

I have edited the draft for the article "Valentina Gomez" to follow your request. PeaRidge62 ( talk) 17:19, 22 May 2024 (UTC) reply

@ PeaRidge62. ( talk page watcher)  Declined as failing (still and for the foreseeable future), WP:NPOLITICIAN, WP:BIO. If doing the same thing gives you the same results I suggest changing the thing. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 18:46, 22 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I have been editing the draft constantly, not "doing the same thing." It clearly satisfies WP:NPOLITICIAN through WP:GNG. WP:NPOLITICIAN states that "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the general notability guideline." The general notability guideline ( WP:GNG) says, "A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." The draft of that article satisfies those requirements. PeaRidge62 ( talk) 22:46, 22 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Your draft Draft:Valentina Gomez was rejected by another reviewer this morning so there is nothing further you can do. Theroadislong ( talk) 06:24, 23 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi! Thank you for reviewing the draft. I believe I have enough reliable sources, albeit in Vietnamese, to consider this article to be notable, so how can I make my article more notable? May I also know where in the article might sound like advertising, to my knowledge most of the information under "Important Milestones" have been provided with references from a reputable source. All in all, I'm asking how I may improve on this article. Thanks a lot!

Shengyongchoo ( talk) 02:05, 23 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Your draft begins with a spam link and reads like a prospectus, we only report on what reliable, independent sources say about a topic, do you have a conflict on interest here? Theroadislong ( talk) 06:29, 23 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi! I have corrected the spam link, however I am unsure how it sounds like a prospectus. To my understanding, this draft talks about the founding, history and current state of the company. Yes, I do have a conflict of interest here, but I have tried writing it in a neutral POV.

If you have any other comments please do tell me. Thanks! Shengyongchoo ( talk) 07:24, 23 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi! My apologies if this is the wrong place to bring it - you recently rejected a draft, Draft:Collegiate Model United Nations Society, India, and the editor responsible promptly created an identical draft with a slightly different name, Draft:Collegiate Model United Nations Society. I don't think this hits the requirements for salting, but there also seems to be no reason to waste further AFC time and effort with a draft that isn't being improved and presumably cannot be improved. Is there somewhere I should take this for attention, or is bringing it to you a suitable response? Thanks and hope you're having a good day! StartGrammarTime ( talk) 08:38, 26 May 2024 (UTC) reply

Hello! You recently declined my submission at Draft:History of the Milwaukee Bucks. I understand that a similar topic exists in the full Milwaukee Bucks article, but is there any way I could extend this article so it meets Wikipedia guidelines? If not, I will abandon the draft, and try and add necessary citations to the full article. Also, other team history articles exist with less detail and less citations, so should those be merged as well?

Thanks, Awhellnawr123214 ( talk) 23:20, 26 May 2024 (UTC) reply

I wonder if it might be advisable to start a discussion at Talk:Milwaukee Bucks and depending on the outcome you could re-submit? Theroadislong ( talk) 06:12, 27 May 2024 (UTC) reply

The subject of the page I created is a general election contender in the race to replace Adam Schiff in Congress. How is this not a qualification for coverage when his opponent has coverage? He is only given passing mentions in articles because it is presumed he will not win, however, it was presumed he would not win the Primary election, which he did, against 15 other candidates. Multiple news sources were provided, local and national (LA Times, New York Times, Fox News, Yahoo) detailing the fact that this guy came out of nowhere and could now represent Hollywood, West Hollywood, Burbank, Beverly Hills, and more in Congress. Close to 30 sources were provided, and all were reliable and secondary, and independent of the subject. In the interest of fairness, and transparency, shouldn't both candidates in elections have pages people can come to in order to assess their worthiness?

Hello @ Theroadislong,

I have edited the introduction in the article Draft:Aziz Amoura to be more neutral toned according to your comment.

Non neutral terms include "prominent Jordanian artist", " a leading figure ", " artistic journey" "prominent artists" "A dedicated teacher," " international acclaim"

I've made significant improvements to the page Draft:Jason Pine, rewriting the article in a neutral tone and including proper references.
