Hi Theroadislong, thanks for your advice on this. I'll go back and find some further sources, but I'm kinda confused as to why this is getting such criticism when other pages are sourced much worse. I largely modelled this on the Stainer & Bell page which, as far as I can see, has 0 independent sources... Anyway I've replaced the MoV website and youtube sources so hopefully it'll be ok now. Cheers. Foodopera ( talk) 18:44, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
Dear Theroadislong.
I am not sure how to do this but will make the attempt.
You will see that the draft Hume's Pass has been radically altered from its original arrangement and resubmitted. As far as I am able to tell it now consists of independent original historical documents from the past that provide the whole of the factual evidence about the location "Hume's Pass. The reference to a published research paper in the refereed literature is solely that I assembled these documents. If necessary I can take that out also.
Are you able to advise me as to what to do next.
Incidentally, it does not fit into the Hume and Hovell wikipedia article as it is separate information, though I do appreciate your thought. Also that page has a great deal of relevant and very well documented historical facts missing from it and I do not have the time nor inspiration to rewrite it. I can only make that comment because I have researched very deeply into this particular historical journey.
Thank you in advance for you assistance.

Hey!
My draft submission 'Flanquette' was rejected by you.
You wrote: "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."
Thing is, this page already exists in German, this was just a translation... I just don't know how to link them together.
I'd appreciate your help - what are the changes I need to make to get this approved?
Thank you! — Preceding

Dear Theroadislong,
Thanks for having take care of my draft here:
[ [1]]
I noticed you declined the article but authorize myself to contact you to understand the notability issue.
Indeed, my draft, copied here /info/en/?search=User:Bob_isat/Anticor is full the translation of a Wikipedia in french webpage here, which passed the notability test:
[ [2]]
The goal of the page in en.wikipedia is to understand the fights, history and purposes of this interesting NGO (Anticor) worldwide.
Can you please help me understanding the issue and the progress to be done to pass the notability test?
Maybe there is a confusion with my draft (full translation) and the partial translation from december 2021 that you originally saw ?
Kind regards,

Hello I just read your message regarding what wikipedia requires for an Author in the link you provided..... Initially I had to address the citation needed which the first Editor asked me to do, which I then did with the source from the Southern Literary Review. Then the article that Editor Gusfriend suggested I created a citation for, but the next editor didn't agree with Gusfriend. All total I've found about seven or eight articles which include this author, obviously I can't include all of them because you can't have eight citations for an article that is one paragraph with a small infobox. Should I just keep resubmitting this with different combinations of these eight articles, or should I include all of them. It's just that it was a bit confusing that Editor 1 said do this, and I did that but Editor 2 said no that's not good enough do this, then I did that but Editor 3 said no what Editor 1 and 2 says isn't good enough either do this.
Should I include every article I've found as a citation? Or just remove all the citations and redo it entirely by only using the ones that the Editors either suggested or asked for? Raleigh80Z90Faema69 ( talk) 16:00, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Hume's Pass Hi Theroadislong, I finally get it. The second last paragraph is not original research under Wiki definitions because it has already been published by the Royal Historical Society of Victoria, an eminent internationally recognised historical society. The Society owns the copyright, and subjected it to double blind independent peer review before publishing it. That means two independent professorial level colonial historians unknown to me or each other critically analysed it, then submitted their analyses in writing. I was obligated to adhere to their analyses. It was original research when submitted to the Royal Historical Society of Victoria but ceased to be that when it was first published by them. It is now neutral, is citable, and is so by anyone. You have recognised that the paragraph does require a citation, so that the neutral citation, fully peer reviewed under international standards, logically must go back in, because it is the only source of the now proven historical facts. This must be an advantage for Wikipedia. Wikipedia is entirely safe in itself using that citation because it is not an isolated individual attempting to publish “original research” for the first time in Wikipedia, and placing Wikepedia at risk with the hope that someone else will establish its veracity. There is no conflict of interest either because there is no personal benefit whatever in citing what has been verified entirely independently of Wikipedia. The last paragraph does indeed require a citation as you point out and now does have one. I have amended the draft accordingly, trusting that this makes sense for you. This is immensely helpful and I appreciate your assistance. Thanks. Martin Mwill66 Mwill66 ( talk) 01:14, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
Hello Theroadislong,
At the time of the last newsletter (No.26, September 2021), the backlog was 'only' just over 6,000 articles. In the past six months, the backlog has reached nearly 16,000, a staggering level not seen in several years. A very small number of users had been doing the vast majority of the reviews. Due to "burn-out", we have recently lost most of this effort. Furthermore, several reviewers have been stripped of the user right for abuse of privilege and the articles they patrolled were put back in the queue.
Several discussions on the state of the process have taken place on the talk page, but there has been no action to make any changes. The project also lacks coordination since the "position" is vacant.
In the last 30 days, only 100 reviewers have made more than 8 patrols and only 50 have averaged one review a day. There are currently 803 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 855 administrators have this permission, but only about a dozen significantly contribute to NPP.
This means we have an active pool of about 450 to address the backlog. We cannot rely on a few to do most of the work as that inevitably leads to burnout. A fairly experienced reviewer can usually do a review in a few minutes. If every active reviewer would patrol just one article per day, the backlog would very quickly disappear.
If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, do suggest they help the effort by placing {{subst:NPR invite}}
on their talk page.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.
To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself

Hi Theroadislong. This I believe is the Wikipedia confirmation of what I am asserting. /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Attribution Wikipedia:Attribution. Citing yourself. You may cite your own publications just as you would cite anyone else's, but make sure your material is relevant and that you are regarded as a reliable source for the purposes of Wikipedia. It is a reliable source by definition because it has been refereed entirely independently of Wikipedia by the eminent international history publication the Royal Historical Society of Victoria, as explained.

Hi Theroadislong I have rewritten the second-last paragraph to demonstrate that it conforms with the explicit rules of Wikipedia as follows. "The independent Royal Historical Society of Victoria demonstrated in its double-blind refereed journal in 2021 how to correct the error in the Hume map and thus revealed the true location to be 1260 metres south of Arkell’s Lane Wandong." This now seems to be legitimate. I appreciate your help. All the Best, Martin Mwill66 Mwill66 ( talk) 02:18, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi Theroadislong. I am pretty sure that I have re-submitted the page correctly. I hope that the next reviewer can see your various items of advice so that it can be seen that they have been addressed.

Hi Theroadislong, looking for clarification/assistance on the Paddy McMahon draft. I've read the wikipedia section for notability, but I had cited an independent reliable secondary source that was a biographical piece on the man in question (from the Irish Times). Is there something that is still lacking from the article? The man himself had published a series of books, a few which were considered bestsellers. And was interviewed over a number of years on prominent radio shows and has a writing career spanning over about 20 years. I'm unsure of how to represent that in the article with citation.

Thank you for the quick review of the 2Sure Wikipedia page. My name is David. I currently work as the Community Marketing Manager for the 2Sure brand in Nigeria. It's my first time creating an actual article since I made this account in 2019. I am trying to learn how to use Wikipedia properly and also position the 2Sure brand online since it already dominates its category in the Nigerian market.
Could you please assist me with the parts that I am not getting correctly in the article? I would sincerely appreciate your input.
Many thanks.

I understand I may have submitted this article improperly and admittedly, it's more about his dissertation than the person.
The analysis in Dr. Chaix' dissertation is simply paradigm shifting. How can I help make this more well known?
Chaix refuses to talk about religion in public or give papers about it, or even answer questions about it during lectures. So how I can I help call attention to his analysis of The Revelation?
Should this be a footnote on The Revelation article instead?
or an article about the dissertation?
Any help would be appreciated! This phenomenal aspect of the Revelation has been undiscovered for far too long!

You suggested that the article might not pass WP:NCORP.
I am certainly no expert on this, but there are in-depth articles from Decanter and iNTOUCH about the winery. There are also long articles about the winery before it was incorporated, so they mention the founder's name instead of the company name. These are from the New York Times and The Japan Times.
There are many shorter mentions such as Oz Clarke's wine book, but I deleted such references to avoid being viewed as advertising.

Thank you very much for you help on the Draft:Schoolhouse.world page.
The user who started the article is now unable to finish it, but User:Owais456 has volunteered to do so. He is a brand new Wikipedia user, and so I have volunteered to help him learn the ropes. While doing so, it would seem very useful to be able to publish updates in small increments, but I do not wish to bother you or any other AfC reviewer with each such small change. Therefore, I would like to revert the AfC submission until we are ready to resubmit. Is this possible?
I am guessing that deleting the first line from Draft:Schoolhouse.world might do the trick, but dare not try this without asking for your guidance or permission.

Dear Theroadislong, you assert that the article does not reference independent sources and refer mostly to material generated by either myself or PanaBIOS. Even a casual review of the article will not bear out this claim. The article is sourced to more than 30, overwhelmingly independent, credible, and highly reputable sources, including Bloomberg, UN Agencies, ADF, and numerous news reports and government statements. Please be specific as to which specific passages are not written in a sufficiently neutral tone. And which specific facts lack sufficient referencing integrity. I don't think merely asserting is enough feedback for an author to improve an article.

As mentioned elsewhere, I am mentoring a new (and potentially eager) Wikipedia user, and am also trying to improve my own understanding in the process. I have a few questions:
The fact that the founding of the organization was announced on the first page of the NY Times (ref #1) by someone once ranked by Time as among "the 100 must influential people", and by Forbes as "The Most Influential Person In Education Technology", suggests potential "significance". I agree, however, that it doesn't demonstrate that this particular initiative has succeeded. And the announcement was an op-ed, and not a news article.
Your rejection note states:
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.
It would be helpful to understand whether sources such as ref #4 and ref #22 are individually adequate, but there just weren't enough of them to demonstrate "significant coverage", or if you found the sources themselves individually wanting. Both articles are solely about Schoolhouse.world, and are therefore not "just passing mentions". Is Forbes (ref #4) sufficiently "reliable" and "independent", or is it (like most rags) too susceptible to article placement? I can't vouch for "The74" (ref #22), but it claims to be a "non-profit, non-partisan news site covering education in America". (I see that the name "The74" is missing from the reference, and should be added.)
Is the issue that these articles do not address the organization's impact? At my suggestion, Owais removed the sentence "By June 2021, schoolhouse.world learners had reached 1 million 'learning minutes'.", as I feared this sounded "too promotional". Perhaps this was a mistake. Is evidence of this sort of impact needed?
Many thanks in advance for your further guidance.

You said it was "contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia". I read the 5 pillars. I don't understand why this is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia.
The article is similar to other articles describing computer languages. (I understand that it needs to be more fully developed, but I think it's at least a good start.)

Hello Theroadislong, Thank you for checking the article.
I've read the creative professionals notability [13], and to my mind three or four out of the four items apply to this artist. It seems to me that each of these points is addressed in the article itself, with sources that are either from professional journalists in mainstream newspapers of reference, academic articles about the arts dedicated to him, monograph about the artist and his artistic impact written by an art professor, as well as interviews and articles in specialised arts publications. This artist received a provincially and federally funded prize, played a major role in creating the main arts organization supporting francophone artists in the province, and is on a path to inclusion in the provincial art collection (Art Gallery of Ontario) along with a few other artists of his cohort.
What are in your opinion the failing notability criteria? Which criteria are "not clear how they pass" based on the sources of the articles? Or are there sources that don't make sense? What is a good way to present the notability of this artist? Should I write to you a detailed response with supporting sources for each of the four notability criteria? Should I bring in more sources about his life, his work, his region, his historical context, etc.?
Thank you for your attention, cat ( talk) 16:07, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
Which specifically of the four notability criteria (and sub-criteria) do you find not satisfied for this article? I can bring out documentation for each of the four criteria (and several sub-criteria). What is the proper way to respond to the notability questions? Or, should I rather ask this in the AfC forum you suggested? I also looked at pages such as Pierre-François_Laurent and Marek_Laczynski and found these persons quite comparable to Clément Bérini, though they have less professional exhibitions, less recognition by their peers (per sources), and less impact on their artistic and cultural communities (nothing comparable mentioned in their sources). So I wonder how to understand or weigh the differences among these artists' notability.

Good afternoon,
Thank you for reviewing my entry for the Next Century Foundation. As stated elsewhere, this was categorically *not* a case of paid editing.

Hello Sir,
This is Zawahir, I m a creative content writer who want to start contributing articles related to retail & fashion brands on your platform. I've seen some retail brands like Foot Locker, who have published their bios on your platform. I've read your policy and guidelines and curated my content accordingly. But still, I'm unable to publish content on your platform. Let me give you an overview of the reason behind publishing this content.
Tops and bottoms is a USA Based retail brand that accommodate its customers with the branded apparel collections which was started in 1990 as a small business ranging from head to toes at that time. The concept was something new at that time which clicked me to write this article. The brand is quite popular in Chicago, and reviving it's strategy to go digitalize. Therefore, I decided to write an article on your platform because the brand name is often referred to something else, but still they are using this name which is quite astonishing for me, So i reached the person in the store and asked for the owner permission to let me write about their business. Luckily, I was granted permission from the owner. I've personally interviewed the brand owners, as well as visited their sites (location of their retail store).
I respect your policies that are made to avoid scammers getting space on your platform. You can find their customer reviews on Google, and I personally checked everything before writing for them. Although I've concerns regarding your reference links policy. How i can write content related to a brand who doesn't have any solid digital presence, however still popular and serving the community? kindly assist me here. Thank you.

Hi Theroadislong. I am writing you about the submission, and rejection of your part, of the draft /info/en/?search=Draft:Carlo_Alessandro_Landini
The draft was already declined once (by Robertsky on February 22 of this year). Then I modified the inline citations as recommended, or at least I did my very best to comply (as you can notice comparing the two versions of the same draft).
Before resubmitting it, I would politely ask you how you would suggest and recommend me to fix the still existing problems and hence to proceed.
What exactly doesn’t meet, in your eyes, the proper standard for inline citations? I’ve cited all the possible sources using footnotes, as suggested. There aren’t other sources to be possibly cited (it is not customary to cite sources for Prizes and Contests won or awarded, in fact they do not exist in the widest sense of the term, except for the paper certificate given to the Prize-holder himself).
A hint of your part, a suggestion or advice would be greatly valuable and important to me. Thank you so much! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paolutus ( talk • contribs) 09:26, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi Theroadislong, thanks for your advice on this. I'll go back and find some further sources, but I'm kinda confused as to why this is getting such criticism when other pages are sourced much worse. I largely modelled this on the Stainer & Bell page which, as far as I can see, has 0 independent sources... Anyway I've replaced the MoV website and youtube sources so hopefully it'll be ok now. Cheers. Foodopera ( talk) 18:44, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
Dear Theroadislong.
I am not sure how to do this but will make the attempt.
You will see that the draft Hume's Pass has been radically altered from its original arrangement and resubmitted. As far as I am able to tell it now consists of independent original historical documents from the past that provide the whole of the factual evidence about the location "Hume's Pass. The reference to a published research paper in the refereed literature is solely that I assembled these documents. If necessary I can take that out also.
Are you able to advise me as to what to do next.
Incidentally, it does not fit into the Hume and Hovell wikipedia article as it is separate information, though I do appreciate your thought. Also that page has a great deal of relevant and very well documented historical facts missing from it and I do not have the time nor inspiration to rewrite it. I can only make that comment because I have researched very deeply into this particular historical journey.
Thank you in advance for you assistance.

You wrote: "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."
Thing is, this page already exists in German, this was just a translation... I just don't know how to link them together.

Indeed, my draft, copied here /info/en/?search=User:Bob_isat/Anticor is full the translation of a Wikipedia in french webpage here, which passed the notability test:

The goal of the page in en.wikipedia is to understand the fights, history and purposes of this interesting NGO (Anticor) worldwide.
Can you please help me understanding the issue and the progress to be done to pass the notability test?

Hello I just read your message regarding what wikipedia requires for an Author in the link you provided..... Initially I had to address the citation needed which the first Editor asked me to do, which I then did with the source from the Southern Literary Review. Then the article that Editor Gusfriend suggested I created a citation for, but the next editor didn't agree with Gusfriend. All total I've found about seven or eight articles which include this author, obviously I can't include all of them because you can't have eight citations for an article that is one paragraph with a small infobox. Should I just keep resubmitting this with different combinations of these eight articles, or should I include all of them. It's just that it was a bit confusing that Editor 1 said do this, and I did that but Editor 2 said no that's not good enough do this, then I did that but Editor 3 said no what Editor 1 and 2 says isn't good enough either do this.
Should I include every article I've found as a citation? Or just remove all the citations and redo it entirely by only using the ones that the Editors either suggested or asked for? Raleigh80Z90Faema69 ( talk) 16:00, 7 May 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Hume's Pass Hi Theroadislong, I finally get it. The second last paragraph is not original research under Wiki definitions because it has already been published by the Royal Historical Society of Victoria, an eminent internationally recognised historical society. The Society owns the copyright, and subjected it to double blind independent peer review before publishing it. That means two independent professorial level colonial historians unknown to me or each other critically analysed it, then submitted their analyses in writing. I was obligated to adhere to their analyses. It was original research when submitted to the Royal Historical Society of Victoria but ceased to be that when it was first published by them. It is now neutral, is citable, and is so by anyone. You have recognised that the paragraph does require a citation, so that the neutral citation, fully peer reviewed under international standards, logically must go back in, because it is the only source of the now proven historical facts. This must be an advantage for Wikipedia. Wikipedia is entirely safe in itself using that citation because it is not an isolated individual attempting to publish “original research” for the first time in Wikipedia, and placing Wikepedia at risk with the hope that someone else will establish its veracity. There is no conflict of interest either because there is no personal benefit whatever in citing what has been verified entirely independently of Wikipedia. The last paragraph does indeed require a citation as you point out and now does have one. I have amended the draft accordingly, trusting that this makes sense for you. This is immensely helpful and I appreciate your assistance. Thanks. Martin Mwill66 Mwill66 ( talk) 01:14, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
Hello Theroadislong,
At the time of the last newsletter (No.26, September 2021), the backlog was 'only' just over 6,000 articles. In the past six months, the backlog has reached nearly 16,000, a staggering level not seen in several years. A very small number of users had been doing the vast majority of the reviews. Due to "burn-out", we have recently lost most of this effort. Furthermore, several reviewers have been stripped of the user right for abuse of privilege and the articles they patrolled were put back in the queue.
Several discussions on the state of the process have taken place on the talk page, but there has been no action to make any changes. The project also lacks coordination since the "position" is vacant.
In the last 30 days, only 100 reviewers have made more than 8 patrols and only 50 have averaged one review a day. There are currently 803 New Page Reviewers, but about a third have not had any activity in the past month. All 855 administrators have this permission, but only about a dozen significantly contribute to NPP.
This means we have an active pool of about 450 to address the backlog. We cannot rely on a few to do most of the work as that inevitably leads to burnout. A fairly experienced reviewer can usually do a review in a few minutes. If every active reviewer would patrol just one article per day, the backlog would very quickly disappear.
If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, do suggest they help the effort by placing {{subst:NPR invite}}
on their talk page.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.
To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself

You may cite your own publications just as you would cite anyone else's, but make sure your material is relevant and that you are regarded as a reliable source for the purposes of Wikipedia.

Hi Theroadislong I have rewritten the second-last paragraph to demonstrate that it conforms with the explicit rules of Wikipedia as follows. "The independent Royal Historical Society of Victoria demonstrated in its double-blind refereed journal in 2021 how to correct the error in the Hume map and thus revealed the true location to be 1260 metres south of Arkell’s Lane Wandong."

Hi Theroadislong, looking for clarification/assistance on the Paddy McMahon draft. I've read the wikipedia section for notability, but I had cited an independent reliable secondary source that was a biographical piece on the man in question (from the Irish Times). Is there something that is still lacking from the article? The man himself had published a series of books, a few which were considered bestsellers. And was interviewed over a number of years on prominent radio shows and has a writing career spanning over about 20 years. I'm unsure of how to represent that in the article with citation.

I am certainly no expert on this, but there are in-depth articles from Decanter and iNTOUCH about the winery. There are also long articles about the winery before it was incorporated, so they mention the founder's name instead of the company name. These are from the New York Times and The Japan Times.

Thank you very much for you help on the Draft:Schoolhouse.world page.
The user who started the article is now unable to finish it, but User:Owais456 has volunteered to do so. He is a brand new Wikipedia user, and so I have volunteered to help him learn the ropes. While doing so, it would seem very useful to be able to publish updates in small increments, but I do not wish to bother you or any other AfC reviewer with each such small change. Therefore, I would like to revert the AfC submission until we are ready to resubmit. Is this possible?

Dear Theroadislong, you assert that the article does not reference independent sources and refer mostly to material generated by either myself or PanaBIOS. Even a casual review of the article will not bear out this claim. The article is sourced to more than 30, overwhelmingly independent, credible, and highly reputable sources, including Bloomberg, UN Agencies, ADF, and numerous news reports and government statements. Please be specific as to which specific passages are not written in a sufficiently neutral tone. And which specific facts lack sufficient referencing integrity. I don't think merely asserting is enough feedback for an author to improve an article.

As mentioned elsewhere, I am mentoring a new (and potentially eager) Wikipedia user, and am also trying to improve my own understanding in the process. I have a few questions:
The fact that the founding of the organization was announced on the first page of the NY Times (ref #1) by someone once ranked by Time as among "the 100 must influential people", and by Forbes as "The Most Influential Person In Education Technology", suggests potential "significance". I agree, however, that it doesn't demonstrate that this particular initiative has succeeded. And the announcement was an op-ed, and not a news article.
Your rejection note states:
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.
It would be helpful to understand whether sources such as ref #4 and ref #22 are individually adequate, but there just weren't enough of them to demonstrate "significant coverage", or if you found the sources themselves individually wanting. Both articles are solely about Schoolhouse.world, and are therefore not "just passing mentions". Is Forbes (ref #4) sufficiently "reliable" and "independent", or is it (like most rags) too susceptible to article placement? I can't vouch for "The74" (ref #22), but it claims to be a "non-profit, non-partisan news site covering education in America". (I see that the name "The74" is missing from the reference, and should be added.)
Is the issue that these articles do not address the organization's impact? At my suggestion, Owais removed the sentence "By June 2021, schoolhouse.world learners had reached 1 million 'learning minutes'.", as I feared this sounded "too promotional". Perhaps this was a mistake. Is evidence of this sort of impact needed?
Many thanks in advance for your further guidance.

Hello Theroadislong, Thank you for checking the article.
I've read the creative professionals notability [13], and to my mind three or four out of the four items apply to this artist. It seems to me that each of these points is addressed in the article itself, with sources that are either from professional journalists in mainstream newspapers of reference, academic articles about the arts dedicated to him, monograph about the artist and his artistic impact written by an art professor, as well as interviews and articles in specialised arts publications. This artist received a provincially and federally funded prize, played a major role in creating the main arts organization supporting francophone artists in the province, and is on a path to inclusion in the provincial art collection (Art Gallery of Ontario) along with a few other artists of his cohort.
What are in your opinion the failing notability criteria? Which criteria are "not clear how they pass" based on the sources of the articles? Or are there sources that don't make sense? What is a good way to present the notability of this artist? Should I write to you a detailed response with supporting sources for each of the four notability criteria? Should I bring in more sources about his life, his work, his region, his historical context, etc.?
Thank you for your attention, cat ( talk) 16:07, 15 June 2022 (UTC)
Which specifically of the four notability criteria (and sub-criteria) do you find not satisfied for this article? I can bring out documentation for each of the four criteria (and several sub-criteria). What is the proper way to respond to the notability questions? Or, should I rather ask this in the AfC forum you suggested? I also looked at pages such as Pierre-François_Laurent and Marek_Laczynski and found these persons quite comparable to Clément Bérini, though they have less professional exhibitions, less recognition by their peers (per sources), and less impact on their artistic and cultural communities (nothing comparable mentioned in their sources). So I wonder how to understand or weigh the differences among these artists' notability.

Can you please tell me which references need added and which one need removed — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:CB00:2611:6C00:6DB2:ADBD:1E8:20F4 ( talk) 09:12, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for the thank! Question to you, as someone who is of long tenure here, why do people at AFC decline the nonsense spam drafts but not CSD them? I've noticed that everything I tag for CSD gets deleted, so I must be doing something right, but is it normal to tag the spam drafts/user pages? I don't want to overkill or annoy the admins monitoring the CSD nom log. I guess if they are deleting my tags, they must be ok...cheers MaxnaCarta ( talk) 14:10, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
Hi I've just submitted an article on a musical theatre actor, Alexander Hogg for submission and you rejected it saying it needed more references to prove notability.
What would you recommend I use to cite to improve the article's chances?

Hello Theroadislong,
Thank you for keeping Wikipedia clean.
You mentioned, "We are asking for multiple in-depth coverage in independent sources, not their websites."
There are independent sources and I have cited them later. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Siuraya7 ( talk • contribs) 09:10, 19 June 2022 (UTC)

Good afternoon,
Thank you for reviewing my entry for the Next Century Foundation. As stated elsewhere, this was categorically *not* a case of paid editing. I am a volunteer associated with the organisation, and believe that I have duly declared my COI on the relevant article's Talk page. MLWD69 ( talk) 11:32, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
Hello Sir,
This is Zawahir, I m a creative content writer who want to start contributing articles related to retail & fashion brands on your platform. I've seen some retail brands like Foot Locker, who have published their bios on your platform. I've read your policy and guidelines and curated my content accordingly. But still, I'm unable to publish content on your platform. Let me give you an overview of the reason behind publishing this content.
Tops and bottoms is a USA Based retail brand that accommodate its customers with the branded apparel collections which was started in 1990 as a small business ranging from head to toes at that time. The concept was something new at that time which clicked me to write this article. The brand is quite popular in Chicago, and reviving it's strategy to go digitalize. Therefore, I decided to write an article on your platform because the brand name is often referred to something else, but still they are using this name which is quite astonishing for me, So i reached the person in the store and asked for the owner permission to let me write about their business. Luckily, I was granted permission from the owner. I've personally interviewed the brand owners, as well as visited their sites (location of their retail store).
I respect your policies that are made to avoid scammers getting space on your platform. You can find their customer reviews on Google, and I personally checked everything before writing for them. Although I've concerns regarding your reference links policy. How i can write content related to a brand who doesn't have any solid digital presence, however still popular and serving the community? kindly assist me here. Thank you.

Hi Theroadislong. I am writing you about the submission, and rejection of your part, of the draft /info/en/?search=Draft:Carlo_Alessandro_Landini
The draft was already declined once (by Robertsky on February 22 of this year). Then I modified the inline citations as recommended, or at least I did my very best to comply (as you can notice comparing the two versions of the same draft).
Before resubmitting it, I would politely ask you how you would suggest and recommend me to fix the still existing problems and hence to proceed.
What exactly doesn’t meet, in your eyes, the proper standard for inline citations? I’ve cited all the possible sources using footnotes, as suggested. There aren’t other sources to be possibly cited (it is not customary to cite sources for Prizes and Contests won or awarded, in fact they do not exist in the widest sense of the term, except for the paper certificate given to the Prize-holder himself).
A hint of your part, a suggestion or advice would be greatly valuable and important to me. Thank you so much! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paolutus ( talk • contribs) 09:26, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
