Dear sir, Could you please delete the page Girish Bharadwaj — Preceding unsigned comment added by VeeraArjun ( talk • contribs) 12:41, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
Hello,
The German wikipedia entry for Botond Roska has been approved in the meantime https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botond_Roska I really have no idea who the author is. Reading it, I see differences in structure, but not regarding factual content to my EN draft.
Which sufficient 'secondary reliable resources' are missing in my EN draft /info/en/?search=Draft:Botond_Roska?
I'm really not trying to set up an advertisment page here, just try to reply to many Qs 'why is Botond not yet on wikipedia?'
Thanks for your help and for concrete hints on what I need to do to get the draft published - I am a first time wikipedia entry user (more proof for me not trying to create anything like an advertorial here) and I do not understand or use HTML, unfortunately.

Hello User:Theroadislong, I appreciate that you approved the Kent Tate article! I did want to ask you though if the citation issue on the page is a result of an issue with Carrico reference or from the removal of the the Oille reference? Sorry... but it is unclear to me why that is there now. Thank you! LorriBrown ( talk) 16:14, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for your comment. I realize that there are a lot of blogs and passing mentions... But there are also reliable primary sources like People Magazine, The Daily Mail, and ABC News. Like a LOT of those. What's more... This is a retail store we're talking about. On the "Talk" page for this article I link to a handful of other retail chains that have far less sourcing. (You really don't see a lot of front page articles written about retail outlets unless they burn to the ground or a bus smashes into them. Compared to any other existent retail outlet on Wikipedia... I think the article that I've written is well-sourced.) Thedavidshow ( talk) 15:33, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

You kindly reviewed my first submission [ [1] providing suggestions for improvements and pointed me in the direction of editors who might be able to help. Based on all the advice and edits from these individuals etc the submission has been much improved with a large number of references and more reference style prose in the body of the article. This includes a citation in an article by the former Head/President of the International Publishers Association (IPA) saying Red Circle is a notable new independent publisher worth checking out. It has now been more than two months since you reviewed the first submission and I was wondering if you would review it again or suggest further improvements.-- WikiGeoffrey ( talk) 16:45, 12 April 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by WikiGeoffrey ( talk • contribs) 16:39, 12 April 2019 (UTC) ==
Your recent edit here: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Cecily_Jordan_Farrar&diff=892158773&oldid=890098996, is not warranted or justified unless you can provide me a link to the Manual of Style that states that "we don't use first names in encyclopaedia articles", BTW you are speaking in a tone as of you (we) are WP. Ican't find anything in WP that says editors should not or cannot use first names in WP articles, especially after their full name was given in the article name and lead paragraph. It actually seems more appropriate, and in fact is so in commonuseage to refer to a person by their given name after the original reference in their full name. Your edit is awkward and confuses the situation with Cecily Jordan Farrar as I explained on her talk page. It is hardly appropriate to refer to a woman by her married name, much less use the married name in situations before she was married.In any event please do provide me with a link to a MOS that substantiates your statement. I am not happy with my edits to her article either, and am prone to revert your edits,but am extremely loathe to revert the edits of such an august, experienced and connected editor/admin as you.

Thank you for reviewing the article on Louis Rosenblum. It was rated as START CLASS. I would like to improve it but am at something of a loss.

All God's People Sing is a children's songbook.-- Epiphyllumlover ( talk) 20:03, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
Hi Theroadislong, Thanks for reviewing my page! I noticed your comments on my page. Even though I am related to the person on the page, I hardly knew anything about him. When I found out that his demise news was covered by TV channels and several ministers attended his funeral, I ventured to learn about him. There were several articles about him in the Malayalam newspapers, unfortunately, I don't know the language. I am in the process of finding those articles through others. I learned about his research work, assistance to several Ph.D. students, professional development of high school teachers, and especially contribution to protecting the eco-system of Kerala. He regularly stressed the importance of protecting the environment of Kerala and failing to do so will result in natural disasters. Kerala had massive floods in 2018 and his studies and warnings could have reduced the flooding at least in a small way. I am trying to reach some of his peers to find out more about him. He is known in his field (geology) and locally (Kerala). But does not have any international awards or recognition though. I created this page to prevent his research from being lost as it contains information on protecting the environment (as Kerala has a very unique bio-diversity). MonashGreen ( talk) 08:54, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
Greetings to Theroadislong,
Thank you for taking the time to look at the correction I requested. I am an absolute amateur to editing a Wikipedia page, so I am not sure if all the information I noted came through. Am I correct in assuming that the changes I suggested were rejected because the subject, China Joe, does not rise to the level of notability? My concern is that there is a Wikipedia entry on China Joe that contains incorrect information from the sources already cited. If you need more published information regarding Joe's notability, I can do that.
Rarely is the history of an entire racial group reduced to one citizen overnight. In August 1886, when all Chinese were removed from Juneau and Douglas Alaska at gunpoint, China Joe was not removed.
The men whose lives he saved at Dease Lake during the winter of 1874-1875 by providing free flour and food for all, were the very same men who stood in front of his log cabin bakery, with
firearms in hand. They informed the armed mob who had come to take Joe away, that no one was touching Joe. They would defend him with their own lives, for they owed their lives to him.
This was a unique and remarkable circumstance on the West Coast. Joe continued a life of generosity to all and when he died in 1917 had a funeral procession 7 blocks long. Such early writers as Emma Sarepta Yule wrote of him as a remarkable solitary Chinese in
the Pacific Monthly. He was the sole Chinese male accepted as a full-fledged member of the first organized Pioneers of Alaska, here in Juneau. When a local Irishman was told he had not intention of having his portrait taken with a Chinese male, the whole group told the Irishman to leave. Joe's picture sits among his fellow pioneers on the the local museum wall to this day.
Joe's example of generosity to young and old alike through his whole life makes him
our leading citizen and example of generosity in any language or culture.
So, what do I need to do, to correct those mistakes? To show he that he rises to the level of historical notability? Your help in this matter, from one ignorant in the mechanics would be appreciated. Sincerely Yours in Historical Detail, Omphalopsychite ( talk) 02:43, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
Thank you for your feedback so far on Draft:Retford king edward vi grammar school. I think I have improved the citations, and any copyright contended lines have been removed. I undertand the guidelines for para phrasing now I think.
Before I make any further changes (or mistakes) can you tell me if is now likely to be approved or I need to make further changes? Please be as specific as possible, I was a bit ambitious with the first draft, and made it difficult to pin point areas of concern.

Hi there,
I’ve had a look at the article you sent me after you said my article about the rugby player Mike Peters should be deleted. As I’m new to all this and not tech-savvy I’m still clueless as to what I’ve done wrong.....??????
The links for references/proof that I’ve used all lead to legitimate articles, match reports, images of Mike in action etc.

I am wondering why the page I created was flagged for deletion? Can you please advise what I need to do to resolve? It is a purely fact based profile for a company, much like exists for many other film companies (i.e. A24, Blue Fox Entertainment, etc). I'm not sure what I am doing incorrectly to establish this company page. Thank you for your assistance.
FilmGuru26 ( talk) 22:46, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
I hope I didn't submit my last inquiry to the incorrect place.I was trying to find out why the page I'm attempting to create for this company is being flagged for deletion? It's not a promotional page but merely a fact based background of what the company is (much like exists for other film companies such as A24, Blue Fox Entertainment, etc.) Can you please advise what I am doing wrong to set this up and what I need to alter to have it be accepted as a valid page? Thank you
It was said, "Being a Miss America runner-up is not notability..." which seems inconsistent with existing pages on Wikipedia. For example, as I look at the list of other Miss South Carolina winners in Wikipedia, there a number of former winners with their own pages and most have their chief measure of notability as winning Miss South Carolina. Note that you have to win Miss South Carolina to even compete in Miss America, and Dawn Smith was a finalist in Miss America. A good specific example is Ali Rogers ( /info/en/?search=Ali_Rogers). Ali Rogers has nothing more on her page other than winning beauty pageants, the most significant being Miss South Carolina and also was a finalist in Miss America. She did not sing in a Billy Graham crusade, hasn't recorded songs, written books, have an active ministry throughout the United States, and so forth. I intend to continue to add to the draft providing additional items of notability, but the above comment by itself is inconsistent with what I already see approved on Wikipedia. My assumption is it will eventually get approved as I document more, but I contend it should already be approved based on what I see on Ali Rogers' page. Please explain this inconsistency.
I have made all reviewers changes. I do not have a relationship in any way with the author, I just use the laws.

Dear Theroadislong
Hope you recall you were very helpful over getting an article on the Coxwold Pottery established (thank you.) I've been working on another article and I wonder if you could have a look at it? It concerns a former department of the University of York (UK), the Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies. Here's what I have drafted so far: /info/en/?search=Draft:Institute_of_Advanced_Architectural_Studies I believe the department was ‘notable’, in that it ran for some 40 years and provided courses to 1,000s of mid career architects here in the UK, as well as other activities. Again, I think I made the mistake some months ago of not really understanding the ways of Wikipedia – I put the article up directly and fairly promptly had it knocked back by an Admin to a Draft! To be frank, I found that a bit puzzling, as I think it is an absolutely straightforward factual record of the Institute’s activities, with no commercial value and nothing to 'promote', as it closed over 20 years ago. What it did not have at the time were many references to books and journals etc. But the key information regarding the Institute’s existence and activities is actually mainly found on the University of York’s website, eg the University Library link lists over 80 publications of one sort and another published by the Institute. Anyway, I'd be really grateful if you have a minute to look over it. If you think it’s OK, could you let me know and I will move it from Draft to Review. If you think it needs some further work, could you perhaps just let me know briefly what you think is needed and I'll edit it? Thanks very much ArchaicW ( talk) 11:25, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi Theroadislong. I wanted to let you know that a draft you declined at AFC, Draft:Gulshan Kumar Bajwa, was moved to mainspace by the creator, who said the draft had been "approved" when it had not been.

What makes you say it reads like an advertisement? There is no real negative coverage about them online or in academia, because, whilst they are noteworthy, the people who are interested in them are people who are supportive of them, because they are not a large enough group for people to come after them, as would be with for example, a mainstream political party.

Hello,
I recently added stuff to my page to make it look a bit better.
Is there any chance you could help by adding my contributions to the "contributions" tab I have added, as I don't know how to do it.

Hi Theroadislong!
I saw that you had rejected my article submission. The article I was working on was a translation of the German article of the same name, and I do not have any references to add to the article. Is it ok to publish, or will it just not be allowed on the site?

Hi Theroadislong,
I have just received your message regarding Spaceslide article. My intention was to message you before I submitted this, as is the Wikipedia best practice.
This article is a factual account of Spaceslide, a company owned by Home Decor. There is no advertising here whatsoever. I'd like to point you towards the B&Q page, which this is modelled off, how does this differ? What else would you require to accept this page?
We have been creating this page from a non-advertising background for some time now, we are a little stuck as to how we are supposed to proceed, as this page does not differ from the thousands of other factual records of businesses that exist on Wikipedia.

Hello,
The German wikipedia entry for Botond Roska has been approved in the meantime https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botond_Roska I really have no idea who the author is. Reading it, I see differences in structure, but not regarding factual content to my EN draft.
Which sufficient 'secondary reliable resources' are missing in my EN draft /info/en/?search=Draft:Botond_Roska?

Your recent edit here: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Cecily_Jordan_Farrar&diff=892158773&oldid=890098996, is not warranted or justified unless you can provide me a link to the Manual of Style that states that "we don't use first names in encyclopaedia articles", BTW you are speaking in a tone as of you (we) are WP. Ican't find anything in WP that says editors should not or cannot use first names in WP articles, especially after their full name was given in the article name and lead paragraph. It actually seems more appropriate, and in fact is so in commonuseage to refer to a person by their given name after the original reference in their full name. Your edit is awkward and confuses the situation with Cecily Jordan Farrar as I explained on her talk page. It is hardly appropriate to refer to a woman by her married name, much less use the married name in situations before she was married.In any event please do provide me with a link to a MOS that substantiates your statement. I am not happy with my edits to her article either, and am prone to revert your edits,but am extremely loathe to revert the edits of such an august, experienced and connected editor/admin as you.

Hi Theroadislong, Thanks for reviewing my page! I noticed your comments on my page. Even though I am related to the person on the page, I hardly knew anything about him. When I found out that his demise news was covered by TV channels and several ministers attended his funeral, I ventured to learn about him. There were several articles about him in the Malayalam newspapers, unfortunately, I don't know the language. I am in the process of finding those articles through others. I learned about his research work, assistance to several Ph.D. students, professional development of high school teachers, and especially contribution to protecting the eco-system of Kerala. He regularly stressed the importance of protecting the environment of Kerala and failing to do so will result in natural disasters. Kerala had massive floods in 2018 and his studies and warnings could have reduced the flooding at least in a small way. I am trying to reach some of his peers to find out more about him. He is known in his field (geology) and locally (Kerala). But does not have any international awards or recognition though. I created this page to prevent his research from being lost as it contains information on protecting the environment (as Kerala has a very unique bio-diversity).

Greetings to Theroadislong,
Thank you for taking the time to look at the correction I requested. I am an absolute amateur to editing a Wikipedia page, so I am not sure if all the information I noted came through. Am I correct in assuming that the changes I suggested were rejected because the subject, China Joe, does not rise to the level of notability? My concern is that there is a Wikipedia entry on China Joe that contains incorrect information from the sources already cited. If you need more published information regarding Joe's notability, I can do that.
Rarely is the history of an entire racial group reduced to one citizen overnight. In August 1886, when all Chinese were removed from Juneau and Douglas Alaska at gunpoint, China Joe was not removed.
The men whose lives he saved at Dease Lake during the winter of 1874-1875 by providing free flour and food for all, were the very same men who stood in front of his log cabin bakery, with
firearms in hand. They informed the armed mob who had come to take Joe away, that no one was touching Joe. They would defend him with their own lives, for they owed their lives to him.
This was a unique and remarkable circumstance on the West Coast. Joe continued a life of generosity to all and when he died in 1917 had a funeral procession 7 blocks long. Such early writers as Emma Sarepta Yule wrote of him as a remarkable solitary Chinese in
the Pacific Monthly. He was the sole Chinese male accepted as a full-fledged member of the first organized Pioneers of Alaska, here in Juneau. When a local Irishman was told he had not intention of having his portrait taken with a Chinese male, the whole group told the Irishman to leave. Joe's picture sits among his fellow pioneers on the the local museum wall to this day.
Joe's example of generosity to young and old alike through his whole life makes him
our leading citizen and example of generosity in any language or culture.
So, what do I need to do, to correct those mistakes? To show he that he rises to the level of historical notability? Your help in this matter, from one ignorant in the mechanics would be appreciated. Sincerely Yours in Historical Detail, Omphalopsychite ( talk) 02:43, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

It was said, "Being a Miss America runner-up is not notability..." which seems inconsistent with existing pages on Wikipedia. For example, as I look at the list of other Miss South Carolina winners in Wikipedia, there a number of former winners with their own pages and most have their chief measure of notability as winning Miss South Carolina. Note that you have to win Miss South Carolina to even compete in Miss America, and Dawn Smith was a finalist in Miss America. A good specific example is Ali Rogers ( /info/en/?search=Ali_Rogers). Ali Rogers has nothing more on her page other than winning beauty pageants, the most significant being Miss South Carolina and also was a finalist in Miss America. She did not sing in a Billy Graham crusade, hasn't recorded songs, written books, have an active ministry throughout the United States, and so forth. I intend to continue to add to the draft providing additional items of notability, but the above comment by itself is inconsistent with what I already see approved on Wikipedia. My assumption is it will eventually get approved as I document more, but I contend it should already be approved based on what I see on Ali Rogers' page. Please explain this inconsistency.
I have made all reviewers changes. I do not have a relationship in any way with the author, I just use the laws.

Dear Theroadislong
Hope you recall you were very helpful over getting an article on the Coxwold Pottery established (thank you.) I've been working on another article and I wonder if you could have a look at it? It concerns a former department of the University of York (UK), the Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies. Here's what I have drafted so far: /info/en/?search=Draft:Institute_of_Advanced_Architectural_Studies I believe the department was ‘notable’, in that it ran for some 40 years and provided courses to 1,000s of mid career architects here in the UK, as well as other activities. Again, I think I made the mistake some months ago of not really understanding the ways of Wikipedia – I put the article up directly and fairly promptly had it knocked back by an Admin to a Draft! To be frank, I found that a bit puzzling, as I think it is an absolutely straightforward factual record of the Institute’s activities, with no commercial value and nothing to 'promote', as it closed over 20 years ago. What it did not have at the time were many references to books and journals etc. But the key information regarding the Institute’s existence and activities is actually mainly found on the University of York’s website, eg the University Library link lists over 80 publications of one sort and another published by the Institute. Anyway, I'd be really grateful if you have a minute to look over it. If you think it’s OK, could you let me know and I will move it from Draft to Review. If you think it needs some further work, could you perhaps just let me know briefly what you think is needed and I'll edit it? Thanks very much ArchaicW ( talk) 11:25, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Look for information on the an upcoming backlog drive in our next newsletter. If you'd like to help plan this drive, join in the discussion on the New Page Patrol talk page.

What makes you say it reads like an advertisement? There is no real negative coverage about them online or in academia, because, whilst they are noteworthy, the people who are interested in them are people who are supportive of them, because they are not a large enough group for people to come after them, as would be with for example, a mainstream political party.
So, what can be done to get this article published? Thanks for helping. Innovative Username ( talk) 15:37, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
Been working hard to improve the quality of this new page /info/en/?search=Draft:Retford_King_Edward_VI_Grammar_School , including asking other reviewers, reading guidelines but nervous I haven't done enough. Any further *specific* comments please really appreciated before it gets formally reviewed. Gedgmoss ( talk) 22:13, 8 May 2019 (UTC)Ged Gedgmoss ( talk) 22:13, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
18 May 2019 20:53 GMT Thank you for the edits you did. In particular your comments: 1) School Day Memories I just removed and will ask further advice 2) Neutral tone - I've tried to make amend the external link to make it more neutral 3) Should be prose, not a list - do you mean the History section?

I just wanted to request you to review the Draft:Elica once again. I have corrected my mistakes (added links and citations) and I have corrected any other mistakes. Please don't misunderstand me, I DO NOT work for this brand, I just wanted to create a page in English for this brand, as Elica is very popular my country and there wasn't any page in English for it. Thanks for promoting your time. Genius Ed. ( talk) 03:51, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
Hi Theroadislong. As one of the most active AfC reviewers (I think, as I see you working), could you look at and review Draft:Elena Matei? I have reached an opinion on the draft, but feel that requesting an experienced third party may be needed to ensure that I alone am not deciding the fate of a draft. Best.

hello, it has been brought to my attention that the text i used in my article is identical to the text in http://sirasatv.lk/slgt/saudarie/. I would like to inform you that this text is owned by me, and was provided to the website as part of my biography which was written by me. It is the same text that has been used in many other websites/interviews as given by me. I require your assistance to learn how I may further emphasise that the text that is been used in my submissions is not in violation of any copyrights, as it was written by myself and submitted to the said websites.

Hello!I want to edit the page. Add valid religious information. Please remove the protection. Erssayman ( talk) 16:52, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
thank you. I do not think you studied religious books. Such as the Koran which speaks 1000 Phrase about science. Erssayman ( talk) 19:40, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

i have been working hard for the article and asking for help how to make it relevant. Now that you have deleted it, I dont know if I am supposed to keep working on it to improve and get in-depth coverage or leave and work on something new. Also the article is still in draft. am i suppose to move it somewhere? I am sorry but I am learning slowly /info/en/?search=Draft:The_Minds_Journal
Hello,
I recently added stuff to my page to make it look a bit better.
Is there any chance you could help by adding my contributions to the "contributions" tab I have added, as I don't know how to do it.
Thank you

Dear Theroadislong. First, thank you for your attention. It helped a lot. Do you think the Draft:Daniel S. Milo is ready now for another submission? if not, I wonder if you'll agree that we'll turn it into a Stub. Thanks again, Aumora ( talk) 12:27, 18 May 2019 (UTC)
Dear Theroadislong, can you tell me if you received the re-submit i've sent yesterday? Thanks, Aumora ( talk) 10:39, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi Theroadislong,
Can I copy edit in my Sandbox without the risk of committing errors or be accused of disruptive editing?
Thank you

Why did you come to my talk page? I don't even know you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Numberblock99 ( talk • contribs) 00:15, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
Hi Theroadislong!
I saw that you had rejected my article submission. The article I was working on was a translation of the German article of the same name, and I do not have any references to add to the article. Is it ok to publish, or will it just not be allowed on the site?
Thank you, MinatoAri
I left a page in my sandbox that needed corrections or I submitted it and it was rejected, but I can no longer find it. I put a lot of time and work into it and would like to make the necessary correction to get it published. Where can I find it? Thanks. Billgroll ( talk) 00:11, 29 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi Theroadislong,
I have just received your message regarding Spaceslide article. My intention was to message you before I submitted this, as is the Wikipedia best practice.
This article is a factual account of Spaceslide, a company owned by Home Decor. There is no advertising here whatsoever. I'd like to point you towards the B&Q page, which this is modelled off, how does this differ? What else would you require to accept this page?
We have been creating this page from a non-advertising background for some time now, we are a little stuck as to how we are supposed to proceed, as this page does not differ from the thousands of other factual records of businesses that exist on Wikipedia.

Hello Theroadislong;
Can you please tell me why my article was rejected? I see lots of directors and photographers on Wikipedia. Please help me fix what is needed to achieve my submission. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zroxuf ( talk • contribs) 21:20, 31 May 2019 (UTC) Your draft Draft:Kiarash Behain has one poor quality source [3] Notability is judged by looking at the depth of coverage in independent, reliable, secondary sources, you have none so far.

Hey there, I replaced the youtube links (cause they had FOX and ABC interviews about my craft) and put other references. Can you check now if it's correct? Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ilyasshas ( talk • contribs) 18:55, 31 May 2019 (UTC)
Dear Sir,
I have created a page for Prof Mahesh Tandon, who is one of the greatest Structural Engineer of India. He has published so many articles and has so received so much recognition and awards and still his page has been declined. I have put several independent sources (link to websites) where his accomplishments are mentioned.
Please let me know where I went wrong which has lead to decline in the request of page.
Please help.
