Your submission at Articles for creation: James Kung (October 6)[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 OceanHok 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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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:

The references used should be about the person, not just his works. Otherwise, it would be difficult to prove notability.

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.

Deletion discussion about Specific cost[edit]

Hello, Dumblah, and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit here too, under the username Qwerfjkl, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Specific cost, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Specific cost.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Qwerfjkl}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Arthur Lim[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Arthur Lim requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.christies.com/lot/lot-5905081/?intObjectID=5905081. 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. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — 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.

Fajar trial[edit]

Hello Dumblah. Thank you for helping to add material to the LKY page. May I clarify certain details on the sources you are using, as I do not have access to Living in a time of deception?

The two sources I have used, The Fajar Generation: The University Socialist Club and the Politics of Postwar Malaya and Singapore and Men in White: The Untold Story of Singapore's Ruling Political Party, do not mention Dingle Foot.

Both were clear that the two counsels which gained a reputation after the trial were Lee Kuan Yew and Denis Pritt. However, your addition has now caused the sentence to imply that the two counsels which gained a reputation were Foot and Pritt, omitting Lee. This is now in contradiction with the two sources I have used, and I would greatly appreciate your cooperation in clearing this up.

As I am trying to work the article up to a Good Article, I greatly appreciate all input, and would also like to advise that material not pertaining to Lee specifically be shifted to other articles, perhaps Poh's or Pritt's, as there's a recommended length for articles, and LKY's close to the limit before I have even cleaned up his premiership section.

September 2022[edit]

Hello, I'm Sea Cow. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Mahdzir Khalid, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Sea Cow (talk) 03:46, 4 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: 1st Battalion, Singapore Infantry Regiment (October 31)[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 Asilvering was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. 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:

9th Singapore Division is basically a stub, you could add info on 1SIR there?

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:1st Battalion, Singapore Infantry Regiment and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
