Hi,
Thanks for reviewing my draft article. Can I ask which references are deemed inadequate? Is it because some are wikipedia pages?
Thanks, Joe
- Hi JoeMCooper2794. It was declined because it contains statements that do not cite a source. In some cases they originally cited Wikipedia, which, being user-generated, is not a reliable source, so the reviewer removed the citations.
- The subject appears to be living, so I've gone further and removed part of a sentence about his medical history and why he did something. Writing such things without citing a reliable published source is a violation of Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living persons. If you know the subject personally, be careful not to accidentally include things you know only from personal knowledge. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 14:50, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
we are an arts charity that would like to get listed on Wikipedia. We are similar to Artsangel charity, so please can you advise why they can have a page but we cannot?

- @ Hcs2019: - well as a first critical point, the draft was a copyright breach - just duplicating site content without a suitable license on it. As a secondary aspect, there are articles in Wikipedia that should not be here and just haven't been identified yet, and so the existence (or absence) of one article doesn't justify the existence of another. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS explains why we have this viewpoint quite well.
- As a bigger concern, please pay attention to your talk page - your account seems to be breaking at least 1 serious rule, and possibly a second.
- If you are writing about an organisation due to a connection (especially any paid connection) you have to declare it - please look at the post and respond to its requirements to avoid the risk of your account being blocked. Nosebagbear ( talk) 22:20, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
Zenus103 ( talk) 13:00, 29 April 2019 (UTC) I added the references just after the first review. How can I ask again for a review?
- Hi Zenus103. The newspaper is not notable (not suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia). Revisit the topic in a few years, by which time its circumstances may have changed. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 15:23, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi,
I'm struggling to create this page as I'm following the likes of other companies that are similar and the content they cover on those pages. This company is as relevant as the other live pages and mentions similar topics and forwards to the same articles. (GoCompare, Simply Business, Hiscox)
I've also linked multiple sources, which are professional British publications used as sources across wikipedia also. Can I get some assistance on what is wrong with this page?

Hi, could I please know when my draft will be reviewed? It’s been more than 2 months so I’m just wondering? Thanks! 213.205.242.2 ( talk) 14:14, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

- Nearly 400 drafts have been awaiting review longer than
Draft:Pandey Ganpat Rai, with the longest wait currently being 14 weeks. You can monitor these numbers by checking Category:AfC pending submissions by age/Very old every week or so to see how many drafts are ahead of yours on the list. Volunteers are not required to work on the oldest drafts first, but some do, so the draft should gradually move up the list. --

Hello,
Can you please review this page. I believe that Edapt is a notable organisation as it is a national organisation for teachers in England and Wales. It has had substantial press coverage and offers an alternative to the teaching unions. Reputable press coverage includes:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-24347235
Can you please provide further advice on how to publish this article?

- Hi Emmanuelgzleh. User:Emmanuelgzleh/sandbox is not an encyclopedia article, so it cannot be accepted for publication at Articles for Creation. I've left a welcome basket of links on your user page that may help you get oriented and understand how you can contribute to the encyclopedia. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 22:29, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
