03:58:18, 21 June 2020 review of submission by Dhawanderer[edit]


Just wanted to know why the article has not been assessed on the quality scale. It would be wonderful if I could get a quality assessment which will guide me in further contributions. Thank you so much!

This seems to have been done now. Deb (talk) 12:02, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

08:44:50, 21 June 2020 review of submission by Priyanka2984[edit]

The draft was deleted mentioning that the person is not notable enough for a Wiki Page. I was going through the Notability criteria for Sports Persons in football and it mentions the I-League (India) being a prominently accepted league. My subject, Dinesh Nair, has formerly played for 3 teams of the I-League before becoming a sports administrator. Could you please guide me on why this does not meet the notability criteria?

Priyanka2984 (talk) 08:44, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Priyanka2984 You seem to be writing about him primarily as an administrator, not as a player. If he meets the criteria of being a notable player, you need to write focused on that aspect and have the independent sources to support it. Also note that interviews with him, press releases, routine announcements, and similar sources do not establish notability. Wikipedia should only summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage(that goes beyond a brief mention) say about him. Please see Your First Article for more information. 331dot (talk) 10:07, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks for the clarification. I have included more details in the playing career section and tailored the summary to give priority to Dinesh as a player first. Also, the reference list has been populated. I had incorrectly included all the references in the External links section earlier.

i didn't know that if adding website links this might be counted as promotional work, so now i removed the links. Therefore, there is no other reason to delete my page.

It's promotional because it just tells about the person in the style of a resume. Wikipedia articles must do more, they must summarize what independent reliable sources say about a person, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. Your draft had been rejected, meaning that if you truly feel this person meets our definition of notability, you will need to start from scratch. Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 13:23, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, Mr Isaac is a well knwn reporter in Israel and he's an Israeli journalist and presenter in the biggest news Channel is Israel (HaHadashot 12). I have filed many sources and I cant seem to understand why his draft is rejected. Please help.Newlywo (talk) 18:08, 21 June 2020 (UTC) Newlywo (talk) 18:08, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Newlywo As noted by the reviewers, it appears that this person does not meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person, or at least the sources in the opinion of the reviewers do not support any claim to notability. I cannot read Hebrew so you may need to ask the reviewers directly what their specific concerns were, if you need clarification on their statements on your draft.
If you are connected to this person in some way, please review WP:COI and WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 18:17, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

331dot Thank you for this. first, I will translate the sources, they are actually good sources.. What can I do more? I wrote the reviewer over 20 dys ago and also just now Newlywo (talk) 18:20, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
