Hi there, is there anyone can review or check my article before I submit it to review. I just don't want to get rejected againAsia Pcific Smart Cities 07:37, 28 June 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by FlemingKL ( talk • contribs)
Hi there,
is the "Retrieved <Date>" remark (based on the respective code - like "|accessdate=September 2, 2008 |date=September 2008" - )in the "References" sections of an article obligatory or just recommended?
Thank you Duke2016 ( talk) 08:16, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
I was curious if there were a template for an article about a visual artist, for example where to put illustrations of their work. I found WP:artist biography article template, but unfortunately it had been appropriated by a young hip hop musician in Kosovo, and then by someone posting obscene stuff. The last legitimate edit was on 19 August 2015 by KylieTastic, whose talk page says she's on a wikibreak.
In addition to an answer about whether, in a case like this, I as an editor could restore the last legitimate revision in one step, I'd like someone 1) to keep an eye on this article and see that it doesn't keep getting misused, and 2) possibly improve it by adding some visuals.
Thanks, HarZim ( talk) 05:03, 28 June 2016 (UTC)

I reviewed Draft:The Gherla Holocaust Memorial Monument and declined it because it had no references. Its author, User:Micuklein, then wrote:
I added the references that you requested. I have never submitted anything to Wikipedia before and I am a bit confused about the process.
At this point, one problem is that the draft says “We also researched the names of the villages from where Jewish residents were sent to the Gherla ghetto. We found 44 villages, their names are inscribed on the pedestal of the monument.” Wikipedia articles should never be written in the first person.
The Wikipedia submission process can be confusing to new editors. This Teahouse is a good place to ask questions about submission and about Wikipedia in general. The more specific your questions are, the more likely the answers are to be specific and helpful.

There is a page with all the Holocaust Memorials and this memorial is notable enough to have a mention in Wikepedia. see: /info/en/?search=List_of_Holocaust_memorials_and_museums When 14% of the population of a city is exterminated it important enough to have a mention in Wikepedia.

Also, the chief Rabbi of Romania, the mayor of the city of the Gherla, the head of the Romanian Orthodox Church in Transylvania
the Hungarian consul and many other demnitaries were present at the inauguration. The Romanian state TV station broadcasted

As a teacher of English who often peruses Wikipedia for ideas on topics for (class) discussion, I would like to recommend my students and have them feel they are reading proper English while doing so. I often come across articles with mistakes and ambiguity, and so I'd want to make quick changes, listing these as "minor" errors, to improve readers' experience of both the language content and the standard of English while pointing out to creators of a given page any possible "blind spots".
What is the easiest and quickest way to go about this (without the author misunderstanding my sincere intentions)?

I reviewed Draft:Sophie Doin and declined it as lacking a lede sentence and references. On further checking, I was mistaken about the references. It has references, but they are not in-line or properly formatted. User:Doris Kadish then posted to my talk page:
I submitted an article entitle Sophie Doin. I understand the comments and can make the suggested changed. But before I work on it I want to know the following. My scholarly work on her is in respected venues. But I'm the main scholar who has discovered and written about her. There are 2 other respected scholars who have written on her, also in respected venues. But she is a minor author. Is that enough?
First, in my opinion, minor authors of previous centuries who have had some scholarly attention in the late twentieth or early twenty-first century are sufficiently notable for articles. I think that if scholars a hundred years later think that someone deserves their attention as a minor author, they deserve the attention of Wikipedia as a minor author. I am ready to accept the draft when the lede sentence and the references are improved. What do other editors think? Robert McClenon ( talk) 00:09, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I have been twice asked by Raju Dubai on my talk page for a review of Draft:TPConnects submitted 8 June 2016. I believe it's probably notable enough, but not sure enough and hate to accept an article just to have it AfDed or PRODed... so just thought I'd post up and see if anyone else had an opinion.

I am a little puzzled over something. I have just looked at the article on Scotty Moore, the late guitarist who played for Elvis Presley.

Do you have to be an administrator to create an article? Does the page need to be approved before being made? ColouredFrames ( talk) 22:44, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
@ ColouredFrames: No and no. Any registered user can create a page. However, if this is your first time creating an article, I would suggest taking the page through the Articles for Creation process, as it ensures that you will write a good article.

I reviewed Draft: Robert James Cimasi and declined it, primarily on the grounds that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, due to the length of the lists of chapters, articles, courses, etc. However, I also noted that the references did not appear to be independent. User:JessBailey33 then posted to my talk page:
Hi Robert. Could you clarify which sources do not appear to be independent of the subject? Thanks
The references include Amazon, which is not independent because it is selling his books. Some of them, while listing him, appear to belong to professional associations of which he is a member. Do other experienced editors think that I overreacted because of the sheer length of the lists, or is there agreement that better references are required?

I found Continuum expression of the second law of thermodynamics (or Clausius-Duhem inequality) but I can't find Continuum expression of the first law of thermodynamics the equation is the following:
Is this equation already exists in wikipedia!? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neophysics ( talk • contribs) 15:36, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
Now I'm confused. What is being redirected where with Clausius-Duhem inequality? Is the redirect going from a form of the name with an em-dash or en-dash to a form with a hyphen? Also, Continuum expression of the second law of thermodynamics appears to be going to a soft redirect and maybe should be edited to be a hard redirect and avoid confusion. Maybe this question is beyond the scope of this forum and should go to the Help Desk, but here it is. Robert McClenon ( talk) 01:50, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
I reviewed Draft:Steven R. Tannenbaum and declined it as not providing evidence of academic notability. I said that while it appeared that the subject is notable, sources would be required. User:Marciadross then posted to my talk page:
I'm a first time article maker on Wikipedia. Is there such a thing as an editing course in writing and substantiating info on the site? I would be interested. Also, I'm trying to understand what kind of evidence is needed to make a verifiable claim about Steven R Tannenbaum: if he is a member of the Academy of Science, for example, should I do more than just say it and provide a link to that organization? Finally, are publication records encouraged in an article about a person? Or shall we supply more in the way of references?
First, I would advise that the author play the game known as WP:The Wikipedia Adventure. Second, I think that if he is a member of a National Academy or a fellow of a learned society in which fellowship is a notable honor, that may be a case where the primary source, the academy or society, is sufficient. I don’t fully understand the question about publication records. Overly long lists of publications are not wanted. However, publications by the subject are not sufficient as references to establish notability, although membership in an academy may be. Robert McClenon ( talk) 00:48, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

I reviewed User:Olkonol/sandbox/olkonol and declined it as reading like an essay. I also noted that the references did not establish that Organizational Anatomy is considered notable by scholars. User:Olkonol then posted to my talk page:
Hi, my article on Organizational Anatomy was declined for a reason "This draft does not contain references that establish that Organizational Anatomy is considered notable by scholars in management and organizational studies." However, all appropriate links are included on the bottom of the page, a book "Organisational Anatomy" is published by a scientific publisher, the book is already in universities libraries from the USA to Australia, and this concept and book is endorsed by leading academic and practical experts. I can't understand the reason for decline. Anticipating your feedback, Best regards, olkonol
I declined it for two reasons, for notability reasons and because it did not have the nature of an encyclopedic draft but an essay. Now that the author agrees that it is about Organizational Anatomy, I have renamed/moved it. Is the article meant to be about a book, about a course based on the book, or about the concept of Organizational Anatomy in general? The author says that the concept and book are endorsed by leading experts. If so, please provide independent references. The draft has no wikilinks to facilitate evaluation of the extent to which the topic overlaps with other fields. Do other experienced editors care to comment? Robert McClenon ( talk) 01:26, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
Hi Robert McClenon and StarryGrandma! Thanks for response. Please suggest, what sort of reviews can be considered as independent? So far, Organisational Anatomy, which is not self-published and published in traditional way, picked up independent reviews from Small Business Trends (6.000.000 subscribers) and others; gained endorsements from reputable experts such as fDi Magazine and UKTI. Plus, multiple reviews on goodreads and amazon. Or should it simply wait for more reviews/discussions to be added? Thanks, Olkonol 109.252.44.227 ( talk) 22:28, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
StarryGrandma and Robert McClemon, thanks for explanation. I far as I understood it will be possible to publish an article with more citations and discussions by notable sources in due time. Best regards, Olkonol 109.252.44.238 ( talk) 09:29, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
I am editing my advisor's wikipedia page: /info/en/?search=Chenming_Hu. The page lists two issues, one related to 'This biographical article relies too much on references to primary sources' and the other one, 'This biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification'. Could you please let me know why this page has these issues and what I may do to fix them.
In addition, I would also like to replace his old picture with a new one and add one more picture in the text. How do I go about doing that?

I believe it's probably notable enough, but not sure enough and hate to accept an article just to have it AfDed or PRODed... so just thought I'd post up and see if anyone else had an opinion. Cheers KylieTastic ( talk) 14:22, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
Thank you. Seek the assistance of any members if they have any opinion or can help me to tidy the references to be consistent to complete the process.

Is there a way to get the content that was deleted when my page was deleted? I have resolved the problem and would like to recreate the page. Koglesby17 ( talk) 20:34, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
I am a little puzzled over something. I have just looked at the article on Scotty Moore, the late guitarist who played for Elvis Presley. On looking at the history of this article, I see that the number of viewers says Fewer than 30. Yet, the number of viewers who made recent edits is 32. How can this be? i shall appreciate any responses, thank you. Vorbee ( talk) 20:23, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
Do you have to be an administrator to create an article? Does the page need to be approved before being made? ColouredFrames ( talk) 22:44, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
@ ColouredFrames: No and no. Any registered user can create a page. However, if this is your first time creating an article, I would suggest taking the page through the Articles for Creation process, as it ensures that you will write a good article.

I reviewed Draft: Robert James Cimasi and declined it, primarily on the grounds that Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, due to the length of the lists of chapters, articles, courses, etc. However, I also noted that the references did not appear to be independent. User:JessBailey33 then posted to my talk page:
Hi Robert. Could you clarify which sources do not appear to be independent of the subject? Thanks
The references include Amazon, which is not independent because it is selling his books. Some of them, while listing him, appear to belong to professional associations of which he is a member. Do other experienced editors think that I overreacted because of the sheer length of the lists, or is there agreement that better references are required?

I found Continuum expression of the second law of thermodynamics (or Clausius-Duhem inequality) but I can't find Continuum expression of the first law of thermodynamics the equation is the following:
Is this equation already exists in wikipedia!? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Neophysics ( talk • contribs) 15:36, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
Now I'm confused. What is being redirected where with Clausius-Duhem inequality? Is the redirect going from a form of the name with an em-dash or en-dash to a form with a hyphen? Also, Continuum expression of the second law of thermodynamics appears to be going to a soft redirect and maybe should be edited to be a hard redirect and avoid confusion. Maybe this question is beyond the scope of this forum and should go to the Help Desk, but here it is. Robert McClenon ( talk) 01:50, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
I reviewed Draft:Steven R. Tannenbaum and declined it as not providing evidence of academic notability. I said that while it appeared that the subject is notable, sources would be required. User:Marciadross then posted to my talk page:
I'm a first time article maker on Wikipedia. Is there such a thing as an editing course in writing and substantiating info on the site? I would be interested. Also, I'm trying to understand what kind of evidence is needed to make a verifiable claim about Steven R Tannenbaum: if he is a member of the Academy of Science, for example, should I do more than just say it and provide a link to that organization? Finally, are publication records encouraged in an article about a person? Or shall we supply more in the way of references?
First, I would advise that the author play the game known as WP:The Wikipedia Adventure. Second, I think that if he is a member of a National Academy or a fellow of a learned society in which fellowship is a notable honor, that may be a case where the primary source, the academy or society, is sufficient. I don’t fully understand the question about publication records. Overly long lists of publications are not wanted. However, publications by the subject are not sufficient as references to establish notability, although membership in an academy may be. Robert McClenon ( talk) 00:48, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

I had tried to make a reference to a youtube video where he had explained about his childhood and when I tried to save the reference the save would not work and the error would always be could not post edits not saved can I not link youtube videos? Thanks for help. Also, I was given permission by the owner of a photo to post it but when I am about to download the image it says may be due to copyright by youtube but it is a guys logo who I asked and he said I could use it but, I don't want to get in trouble for copyright so I'll make sure really quick.

Hello again, ColinFine I have already read the articles that you have posted... such as starting your first article and I thought that I would just keep this as a draft and never actually release it so that I won't get under any trouble at all so, no worries there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Butmynameismark ( talk • contribs) 09:32, 30 June 2016 (UTC+9)
I finally clicked the 'contributions' heading and found some edit reports listed with a bold 'current'. Does that mean my edit is to be signed off on and/or should I revisit that edit to re-evaluate my edit? Sudaama90 ( talk) 05:49, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

I reviewed User:Olkonol/sandbox/olkonol and declined it as reading like an essay. I also noted that the references did not establish that Organizational Anatomy is considered notable by scholars. User:Olkonol then posted to my talk page:
Hi, my article on Organizational Anatomy was declined for a reason "This draft does not contain references that establish that Organizational Anatomy is considered notable by scholars in management and organizational studies." However, all appropriate links are included on the bottom of the page, a book "Organisational Anatomy" is published by a scientific publisher, the book is already in universities libraries from the USA to Australia, and this concept and book is endorsed by leading academic and practical experts. I can't understand the reason for decline. Anticipating your feedback, Best regards, olkonol
I declined it for two reasons, for notability reasons and because it did not have the nature of an encyclopedic draft but an essay. Now that the author agrees that it is about Organizational Anatomy, I have renamed/moved it. Is the article meant to be about a book, about a course based on the book, or about the concept of Organizational Anatomy in general? The author says that the concept and book are endorsed by leading experts. If so, please provide independent references. The draft has no wikilinks to facilitate evaluation of the extent to which the topic overlaps with other fields. Do other experienced editors care to comment? Robert McClenon ( talk) 01:26, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
Hi Robert McClenon and StarryGrandma! Thanks for response. Please suggest, what sort of reviews can be considered as independent? So far, Organisational Anatomy, which is not self-published and published in traditional way, picked up independent reviews from Small Business Trends (6.000.000 subscribers) and others; gained endorsements from reputable experts such as fDi Magazine and UKTI. Plus, multiple reviews on goodreads and amazon. Or should it simply wait for more reviews/discussions to be added? Thanks, Olkonol 109.252.44.227 ( talk) 22:28, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
StarryGrandma and Robert McClemon, thanks for explanation. I far as I understood it will be possible to publish an article with more citations and discussions by notable sources in due time. Best regards, Olkonol 109.252.44.238 ( talk) 09:29, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
I am editing my advisor's wikipedia page: /info/en/?search=Chenming_Hu. The page lists two issues, one related to 'This biographical article relies too much on references to primary sources' and the other one, 'This biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification'. Could you please let me know why this page has these issues and what I may do to fix them.
In addition, I would also like to replace his old picture with a new one and add one more picture in the text. How do I go about doing that?
Thanks.

I have been trying to create the article about alamgir welfare trust international, a welfare organization 22 years of age and serving humanity. Both times i made an article, it was nominated for speedy deletion. I don't intend to advertise it through the wikipedia page. Infact i just want to have the basic information about the organization on that page which can provide the statistics and unbiased overview. How can i make sure that my article doesn't get deleted?

Dear friends, I need help in a formatting matter. I added the signature of Günter Schabowski to his "box" and everything seems to be well formatted and find.
