Are you here because I declined your WP:Articles for creation draft?
I left a reason in my declination notice that points to a guideline. Be sure to read it first. Check to see if a question you may have is answered by the Wikipedia guidelines on WP:Notability, WP:Biographies of living persons, WP:No original research, or WP:Verifiability.

Ensure that your inline citations and correct. You might find Help:Referencing for beginners helpful. I like to use the RefToolbar; there is an example walkthrough at § RefToolbar.

Think I erred in my decision, and you have a policy or guideline or community consensus to back your position up? Awesome, I love learning. Leave me a message here, be polite and point me to the policy, guideline or previous consensus and explain how you believe it applies to the article. If I'm wrong, I'm happy to revert my decision and help fix.

Looking for help? Don't understand the policy or how it applies to your draft? That's fine, I don't mind helping and I'm happy to assist your writing of a draft article—after all, that's literally why we're here. Just keep in mind, generic questions might solicit generic answers. Tell how or why you don't understand the policy/template/markup or how it relates to your draft.
Think I erred in any of my editing or reviewing?
I don't mind. Really. I love learning. Leave me a message here, be polite and point me to the policy, guideline or previous consensus and explain how you believe it applies to the article. If I'm wrong, I'm happy to revert my decision and help fix.
Want to discuss an article or project page but think others might want a say?
If this is a discussion about an article or project page that might involve other editors, consider opening the discussion there and then leave a note or friendly message1 here pointing to the discussion. I'm a firm believer that more people discussing and agreeing is more valuable than sole decisions—in fact, it's one of our central tenants.
  1. Please be mindful of our WP:Canvasing policy. If you think I would agree with an argument you are making in an ongoing discussion, the {{please see}} template is ideal.
Looking for help?
Not a problem, I'm more than happy to help! I promise.
  • If it's about something I've done recently (like decline a draft submission), I'm happy to explain; although generic questions may be answered with generic answers. Be specific and help me help you. What part of policy don't you understand or explain why you don't get how it applies to your article.
  • Looking for more generic help? If I know, I'll try to be of assistance, but I may just point you the Teahouse or the relevant Wikiproject, but I don't mind you asking anyways!
WAIT!
