Welcome![edit]

Hello, Erica.zm, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Santoalla (film) moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Santoalla (film), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Image without license[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:MV5BMjIzNDU4ODUxNV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwMTkwOTc3MjI@. V1.jpg. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. Even if you created the image yourself, you still need to release it so Wikipedia can use it. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time after the next seven days. If you made this image yourself, you can use copyright tags like {{PD-self}} (to release all rights), {{self|cc-by-sa-4.0}} (to require that you be credited), or any tag here - just go to the image, click edit, and add one of those. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

Orphaned non-free image File:MV5BMjIzNDU4ODUxNV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwMTkwOTc3MjI@. V1.jpg[edit]

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:MV5BMjIzNDU4ODUxNV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwMTkwOTc3MjI@. V1.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 07:25, 9 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Moved back to draft[edit]

It's very bad form for a new and inexperienced editor to move their own draft article directly to main space without asking for a review, especially if it receives a speedy deletion nomination right after moving it.

I have moved your article back to draft space, in Draft:Santoalla (Film). Continue improving it there and when you are done, click the button in the big box at the top of the draft to submit it for review. ~Anachronist (talk) 05:12, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And you did it again. This is disruptive. Someone moved it back to draft, now at Draft:Santoalla (film) (lowercase 'f'). Let the review process run its course.

Please explain, what is the urgency in getting this published? ~Anachronist (talk) 18:36, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Sorry for moving it back from the draft space. We're currently in a class and it's part of our project to make and publish a Wikipedia page. We were confused with the draft, article, etc., process and we hadn't noticed that the article had been flagged. On that note, we will leave the page as is for now and wait for the review process. Also, we were wondering if the image we're trying to use has contributed to the reason that the article keeps getting flagged. Although we followed the outline to cite images that we don't own, we believe this might be an issue as to why the post has been flagged. Is there any way you would be able to undelete the page? I won't make it an article again, but it's needed for a project that's due this week.

Sorry for the inconvenience, thank you. Erica.zm (talk) 19:26, 21 October 2021 (UTC)Erica.zm[reply]

Please understand that while school courses have deadlines, Wikipedia does not.

Any article with a title that contains a content-space word followed by a colon (like Draft, Wikipedia, Talk, User, User talk, MediaWiki, File, Template, etc.) is not part of the encyclopedia. Articles (in the "main" content space, with no colon-word in front) are the encyclopedia. Main space is what appears in search engines. Main space is the focus of most Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Main space articles can be quickly deleted if they are deemed inappropriate. Therefore, main space is not a place to work on content that is not yet suitable for main space. Your sandbox, or draft space, is intended for that purpose.

The image File:Santoalla Theatrical Picture, Oscilloscope Films, 2016.jpg has nothing to do with the article being tagged in any way. However, because it is non-free fair-use content, "fair use" does not extend to including it in a draft, but only in a main space article. The image is currently an orphan and will likely be deleted, but once the draft is approved for publication, any administrator can restore it by request (contact me, for example, and I can restore it). ~Anachronist (talk) 23:51, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I did a bit of cleaning up in the draft. But it still needs work. For one thing, we cannot cite IMDB as it is considered an unreliable source (because the content is created by users of the site). For the awards, you need to find actual citations for them, like linking directly to a page on the award website as evidence. IMDB is not evidence, as anybody can claim anything on IMDB. ~Anachronist (talk) 00:25, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
