Just needed to find out where my previous message went about the article. How long does it take to receive help here? Thanks! Geo Lightspeed7 ( talk) 00:36, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
"How long does it take to receive help here?"Well, it can certainly take more than the 6 hrs you waited before posting again. We're all volunteers, some of us are busy IRL, and occasionally it's nice to sleep a few hours, even. We do get around to most things, eventually.

Hi There, about a couple of months ago I noticed my page had been declined so I reached out to the person who reviewed it for more help, but I reckon due to the volume of submissions, that person wasn’t able to respond to my plea of help, so I’ve decided to movie my questions and seek help here instead.
Could I possibly ask a couple of questions if that’s alright? Firstly is there any way in which I can improve the article enough to warrant it’s own page, I have a lot of experience with the item in question and can add more information where necessary, I just may need a bit of help with what you would class as “Important” for improvement of the article as I feel that it is indeed a machine that’s significant for the format and stands separate from other devices using a similar name.
Secondly, The intention of the compatibility list was to show which games were compatible. The ones listed are all those that do indeed work with this particular system, where some do not boot or load at all, I agree however, that it is a long list, but was unsure how I could shorten it and explain in detail what games work, which is why I had added a dropdown to it. Also, the merging Idea does appear to be a good one, there’s just a couple of issues I have with it. The Ivo V10/V11, though originally carrying the Discman logo and name, isn’t reality a Discman at all, in the same way that the Ebook readers of the same era are. It is a functioning multimedia Cd-I viewer, much like the Cd-i Itself, which I feel Is more likely that it could be merged better with that page instead? but it’s an odd device to place. That’s why I felt that it’s better situated on it’s own page, due to the importance of the direction and abandonment of the format and also led to why Sony took the company in another direction before they invested their own time in computer entertainment. Also the fact that it’s one of a few systems to carry CD-i technology that wasn’t branded as Philips, is something unique, where other devices of this nature differ and lastly, it’s also the only Portable Cd-i ever made for market that wasn’t branded Philips, that also has a sub line of portables such as the absence of the LCD on the V12 unit. This may not sound too important to some people, but it’s a big thing within the history of the format and multimedia devices itself and as a whole, leading to where we are today with mobile/cell phones.
Again thank you in advance for the help on how I can improve the article, I look forward to hearing back from you. I’ve spent quite a bit of time, research and photography on this Item and would love to see that work go somewhere. Also if it’s not too much to ask, I’d like to work with you to get this article as good as it can be, so that it can hopefully be accepted in the future.

Hello! I recently tried to change the title of an existing wikipedia article, as the information pertained more to a gallery space than as an owner's biography, who's name was the title at the time. When I was unable to edit the title, I attempted to create a new wiki page for the gallery, using the same sources and information, though in a different order and with different subheadings. It was reviewed and rejected twice, for appearing to be an advertisement. I have disclosed that I work for the gallery, but I'm confused what about the page seemed like it wasn't neutral, especially considering it was so similar to a linked page that already exists.
I'm looking for some aid as to how organizations may be represented on wikipedia. The gallery I work for has a long history and it would be wonderful for that information to be available and collected on one place online. How can I create a wiki pages for the gallery, it's owners, and it's artists? Does anyone have experience being in this position? How do organizations create their pages, and if they don't, who does and how do they get onto wikipedia?
Any help would be much appreciated. I am totally new to editing wikipedia and this is something I've been tasked as part of my job, so I'd really like to know how to solve this issue I'm facing. Thanks so much!!
