July 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm ComplexRational. I noticed that you recently removed content from Loftus Hall without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ComplexRational (talk) 13:56, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you were correct. I was not ready to leave the sandbox! Thanks you... Sforaw (talk) 16:32, 27 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Loftus Hall. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

I understand.

Can the title be included without linking it to any vendor in the references section? There is similar info already posted here. Sforaw (talk) 16:11, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely not, your book has not been used as a source in the article so we have no need to mention it. Theroadislong (talk) 16:31, 28 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Twisted Paths (July 27)[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 Curbon7 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:

Please see our notability criteria for books.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Twisted Paths and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
