Your submission at Articles for creation: User:PayBackThyme (March 12)[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 Eagleash 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. 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:

It is OK to use your sandbox for experimentation, but it should not be submitted for review unless it contains a fully-fledged draft which is ready for mainspace. For help in getting started please see the Wikipedia adventure, the tutorial and also the guide to a first article.

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 User:PayBackThyme/sandbox/User:PayBackThyme 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 User:PayBackThyme/sandbox/User:PayBackThyme, 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.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Proper insertion of content into the timeline section of 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Singapore[edit]

Hello, while I greatly appreciate your edits on 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Singapore, please note that new updates should be placed at the bottom and not the top of the timeline section. You were probably confused by the inclusion of the current number of cases being listed first in the section. It would also be helpful if you could copyedit your work before publishing. Lastly, if possible, please try to use proper citation templates with filled parameters; this avoids bare links which are susceptible to link rot. You can use tools such as ProveIt, visual editor, or REFLINKS to do this. Thanks! Darylgolden^(talk) Ping when replying 12:56, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Darylgolden Thanks to take out your time and suggest improvements as all those are very new for me. However I will try to pick up those based on existing code samples.PBT 13:02, 12 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with your custom signature[edit]

You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Remove anything in the Signature: text box. (It might already be empty.)
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "Restore all default settings" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Wikipedia:Signatures#Customizing how everyone sees your signature. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. Thank you. 18:03, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
