01:30:09, 6 August 2019 review of submission by 202.68.171.218

We have update in line with feedback.. 202.68.171.218 ( talk) 01:30, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi DavekickrOZ. Please clarify what you mean by "we". The policy on Wikipedia is "one user—one account". Usernames should not be shared by multiple individuals.
With regard to the draft, you may find WP:BFAQ#COMPANY informative. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 13:42, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

01:42:00, 6 August 2019 review of submission by Peter.R.Hill

I have added multiple references and added content. Peter.R.Hill ( talk) 01:42, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi Peter.R.Hill. If you wish to submit the draft for a second review, add {{subst:submit}} to the top of it. If you believe the draft doesn't need a second review, then so long as you have no conflict of interest, you may instead WP:MOVE it to article space yourself, and let it take its chances there.
Before you do either, however, fix three things:
  1. It isn't clear what source "[Gordon, David. The Chevron Story]" is. Is it a book? If so, make sure you have the title correct (I couldn't find it in worldcat.org), add the publisher, the copyright year, the ISBN if it has one, and the page number(s) that support the content where cited.
  2. Add a page number to the citation of Elva: the cars, the people, the history. It's difficult to access because only five WorldCat libraries hold the book. So it would be helpful if you added a brief quotation of the source to the citation, as described at Wikipedia:Citing sources#Additional annotation.
  3. The draft states some opinions in Wikipedia's voice, such as "when the demands of managing his teams and business forced him to hang up his helmet" and "at pivotal times in their careers". That is not allowed. Attribute the statements inline, such as "when, according to so-and-so, the demands of ...", or remove them.

I'm not sure what the above is supposed to mean, but the draft was rejected because despite several attempts, it didn't have suitable sourcing. The fact that it's rejected rather than declined is because it appears that notability CANNOT be met, even with further editing. Nosebagbear ( talk) 09:32, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

13:01:53, 6 August 2019 review of submission by Ras2066


Good Morning, I never received a response to my request to have a re-review. Can you please take a look at this revised article and let me know if it fits your requirements? Thank you!

Ras2066 ( talk) 13:01, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi Ras2066. No, it does not meet Wikipedia's requirements. The bulk of any article should be based on independent sources. The draft cites none. Do not be surprised that the draft was rejected, or if it is deleted as advertising, and be willing to adjust your approach. The reviewer summed it up well by saying you should STOP, and wait until someone else writes an article on the topic. You can encourage this by:
  1. On your user page, disclose your connection to Michelassi.
  2. Go to Wikipedia:Requested articles and find a category under which to list your request.
  3. Describe the very basics of who Michelassi is, no more than a couple of lines, and avoid puffery. Be up-front about your conflict of interest by mentioning it in the request.
  4. Find a number of independent reliable sources that have substantial information about the topic, and provide links to them in the request. His employer's material about him does not count as such a source.
  5. Optionally, on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine post a link to your request, and make sure to mention your relationship to Michelassi so readers understands where the request is coming from.
The topic has promise, so a member of the WikiProject (or any editor that regularly responds to article requests) may start an article in article space based on your sources. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 13:28, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

14:23:41, 6 August 2019 review of submission by Manas.chafekar

Hello Team,

I have submitted an article for your review on July 7 2019. Can you let me know the tentative time when this article will be reviewed and provide comments? Manas.chafekar ( talk) 14:23, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi Manas.chafekar. The current backlog is 21 weeks. That suggests it might be reviewed the first week in December. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 14:55, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

15:31:01, 6 August 2019 review of submission by Jayanagas


Hi all, The page for GrabOn, coupons and deals platform was created as the deals and coupons are really useful and attractive for any user. Before trying t create a page I checked wikipedia for similar global platforms. I found GroupOn to lead the pack and its Indian version GrabOn is no different and operates within the territory of India. I felt a wiki page would help Indian buyers looking for deals and coupons to be well informed before actually getting on to purchase. So, please review the page, objections and help me publish it. Thanking you all.

Jayanagas ( talk) 15:31, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Jayanagas It's already been reviewed and rejected. Wikipedia isn't your personal promotional vehicle, just because other stuff exists doesn't mean we have to have a page for everything else. Whispering( t) 18:26, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi, With the draft, I've added my comment on discussion page. It seems to me reviewer have not looked at it. I've added there some information why I consider subject notable and how sources meet requirements. If that's not enough, still it would be nice to receive more detailed information why the topic is not considered notable. Could you provide more feedback or rereview the submission? Thanks.

22:17:42, 6 August 2019 review of submission by Gineg80

Hello! This is my first Wiki page. I sent it for review over 3 months ago but nothing has happened yet. I just wanted to make sure I submitted it correctly. I couldn't find it listed in the pending articles, and not sure how to verify if review is in process, and when I should expect it. I created this page in celebration of this little known Costa Rican singer I met, who turned 100 last May. I wanted to give him this little international recognition as a birthday gift. It's now late for that, but I'd love it if he could see it sometime soon! Thank you all

Gineg80 ( talk) 22:17, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi Gineg80. The draft is in the pool to be reviewed. The current backlog is 21 weeks. About 550 drafts have been waiting longer than this one. You can monitor that number by checking how far the draft is from the top of this page. -- Worldbruce ( talk) 23:52, 6 August 2019 (UTC) reply
