October 2020[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. 331dot (talk) 10:01, 16 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Promotionalism[edit]

Hi, on Wikipedia we strive for a particular kind of hyper-neutrality where we just neutrally summarize what reliable secondary sources have said about a person. Your article on Micheal Marks was (by Wikipedia standards) too promotional. I've cleaned some of it up, but it is still a bit too promotional.

Please submit paid articles for review with WP:AFC. Articles should be fully sourced and cite plenty of reliable independent sources (WP:GNG). I've moved your article on WRVI to drafts since it does not demonstrate WP:GNG.

Your submission at Articles for creation: WRVI Capital (1) (November 3)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic was:

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 (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:WRVI Capital (1) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:WRVI Capital (1), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
