Hi AfC team - thanks for all your help with my article thus far. I was earlier assisted by TimTrent and Dodger67 and have made the necessary edits taking into consideration referencing, notability and significance. I found sources in several languages (English, Russian, Chinese, Spanish and French) and hope it is okay now. Please be sure to let me know if you need me to make any further changes? - Happy to dive into this:) Thanks for all your hard work!

Hello Chy Syl. This Draft Draft:TeachPitch has been resubmitted for another review, so it will be reviewed when a reviewer gets to it. At present this is likely to take considerably less than a week. If you have any more specific questions or concerns, please let us know. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 23:32, 2 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

15:39:52, 1 September 2015 review of submission by Nhusha v[edit]

Hi there, I've created a page about the upcoming UN Habitat III Conference. However, there is a message "This sandbox is in the article namespace. Either move this page into your userspace, or remove the {{User sandbox}} template." I don't understand what is the issue and how to deal with it. Please give me further instructions. I would also like to know how long will it take for the page to be reviewed and become public.

Thanks,

Nhusha Vu

Nhusha v (talk) 15:39, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

 Fixed. As for your question, you created the page directly in the Article space, so it is already public. Primefac (talk) 15:54, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

20:12:49, 1 September 2015 review of submission by Sebastian.kevany[edit]


I am following up on a number of unsuccessful submissions -- reckon I have addressed all issues but have heard nothing back recently.

Also writing to say that in regards other "reliable sources" - the articles I reference have numerous academic citations I could use?

Sebastian.kevany (talk) 20:12, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sebastian.kevany, the number one issue that you have so far ignored (though to be fair, it hasn't explicitly been stated) is that 3/4 of your references are from papers you've written yourself. PRIMARY sources are strongly discouraged, and they should ideally be replaced by independent sources not directly connected to yourself or the Riposte.

22:36:17, 1 September 2015 review of submission by Giasecretariat[edit]

HI can you please advise why our page has been rejected?

Best regards Ana Giasecretariat (talk) 22:36, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for the rejection is explained at the top of the draft, in the words "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified." The blue links there are to pages which you may find helpful. Maproom (talk) 22:43, 1 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
