Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (April 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 Theroadislong was:

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.

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:Vroonmenon/sandbox 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:Vroonmenon/sandbox, 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 submission at Articles for creation: Baseline Ventures (April 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 John from Idegon was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere 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, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

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:Baseline Ventures and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Feedback on your draft[edit]

Hello, unfortunately I had to leave the IRC help chat due to real-world issues. You said the best three sources in your draft are 1, 3 and 9. Of those, #1, Bloomberg, is a mere business directory. It's not media coverage at all, and the amount of editorial oversight is questionable (Bloomberg also has genuine news reporting by journalists, but that's a different, unrelated part of Bloomberg). #3 doesn't say much about Baseline at all other than that it's new and Mumbai-based. #9 is slightly better in that it mentions some funding and the names of the founders, but neither provides all that much detail. We don't know any key facts that would allow us to tell how big and/or significant the company actually is. How many employees do they have, what are the revenues or profits? How do they compare to other companies in the sector? We don't know. You said on IRC that they have "made a significant impact on the sports industry" - neither source confirms that; I rather don't think we can conclude that brokering specific deals makes much of an impact. So if those were the best sources, it appears the company isn't quite notable (yet). Huon (talk) 14:46, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Baseline Ventures (May 30)[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 Joe Decker was:

If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The particular issue here is that none of the sources reach the bar set by the WP:CORPDEPTH section of our corporate notability guidelines. We need two sources that go beyond basic corporate announcements and discuss the firm in depth, instead of in the context of a single event. This can be a challenging bar for corporations and organizations to meet. You may wish to ask for assistance at the Teahouse.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:PVS Jan2018 01372.png[edit]

A tag has been placed on File:PVS Jan2018 01372.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
