Neue Stimmen[edit]

Please use {{ill|Neue Stimmen|de|Internationaler Gesangswettbewerb Neue Stimmen}} for the competition, establishing the connection to the German article, until you create the English. It falls automatically in place to a link to English once you create it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:52, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerda Arendt: Oh, I wasn't aware of the ill-Template. I've just translated the German Wikipedia article to Neue Stimmen. Can you please take a look if everything is alright? Thanks a lot for your help! Kai at BSt (talk) 13:19, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It looks good at a glance. "First place", instead of "1st Place", and perhaps some singers have articles in other languages? - Next time that you want translate, change one article, then translate, then link in the others, and keep adding it (without qualifying "norable" or "important") to other winners. - Nice to meet you! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:36, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerda Arendt: Thanks again for your feedback. I've changed "1st Place" to "First place", and so on. I've linked also linked articles in other languages, at least those from German Wikipedia, using the ill-template. I hope that's fine? --Kai at BSt (talk) 07:32, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Impressive! Add to List of classical music competitions, and compare to others. How about an infobox, as in the BBC for voices? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:53, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Gerda Arendt: Done (both). I've also found three more Wikipedia articles to link with the ill-template. Any other suggestions on how to improve the article? Thank you so much for your help. -- Kai at BSt (talk) 11:34, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Aart Jan de Geus[edit]

@Gerda Arendt: Hi and thanks again for your help with Neue Stimmen. Maybe you can take a look at Aart Jan de Geus, too? I've suggested a translated version of the German Wikipedia article on the talkpage. Your feedback would be appreciated. Have a nice weekend! -- Kai at BSt (talk) 11:37, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Brigitte Mohn (November 20)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by K.e.coffman were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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 people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). 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:Brigitte Mohn 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:Brigitte Mohn, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by 331dot 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This needs to do more than just tell what this organization does, it must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage choose to say about this organization.

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.
