Draft:Luminar review question

Hi there,

There's a page which was submitted a few months ago - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Luminar You've reviewed its first version and suggested to make it neutral and add more references. After that, I've corrected these issues and added as many references as I could find and have re-written it with a neutral tone without any promotional and advertorial sentences. Yet, it was declined by your colleague, with a note stating that this page "says nothing about it". It's rather confusing since I believe that if I add more information about the product, it might sound promotional and non-neutral, but without it - it's noninformative according to the last reviewer. Please advice.

Thank you! (Jenyajc (talk) 13:19, 6 July 2017 (UTC))— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jenyajc (talkcontribs) 11:44, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Please remember that quality of patrolling is more important than quantity, that the speedy deletion criteria should be followed strictly, and that ovetagging for minor issues should be avoided.

Technology update:

  • Several requests have been put into Phabractor to increase usability of the New Pages Feed and the Page Curation toolbar. For more details or to suggest improvements go to Wikipedia:Page Curation/Suggested improvements
  • The tutorial has been updated to include links to the following useful userscripts. If you were not aware of them, they could be useful in your efforts reviewing new pages:

Hello ProgrammingGeek, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

  • The new page backlog is currently at 14304 pages. We have worked hard to decrease from over 22,000, but more hard work is needed! Please consider reviewing even just a few pages a day.
  • Currently there are 532 pages in the backlog that were created by non-autoconfirmed users before WP:ACTRIAL. The NPP project is undertaking a drive to clear these pages from the backlog before they hit the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing a few today!

Technology update:

  • The Wikimedia Foundation is currently working on creating a new filter for page curation that will allow new page patrollers to filter by extended confirmed status. For more information see: T175225

General project update:

  • On 14 September 2017 the English Wikipedia began the autoconfirmed article creation trial. For a six month period, creation of articles in the mainspace of the English Wikipedia will be restricted to users with autoconfirmed status. New users who attempt article creation will now be redirected to a newly designed landing page.
  • Before clicking on a reference or external link while reviewing a page, please be careful that the site looks trustworthy. If you have a question about the safety of clicking on a link, it is better not to click on it.

If you feel that the subject of a draft is unquestionably notable, but there are only minor things keeping it from being acceptable (i.e. it wouldn't cause someone to G11 it) you might as well accept the page and let others (who probably know more about promotional language than the creator) fix it further.

Draft: Alec Oxenford

Hi,

Thanks for your review of Draft: Alec Oxenford. I just trimmed down the Art Patron section a lot.

Just prior to your reviews, a couple of other editors had been working on it for about an hour, making a bunch of changes. They've been discussing it here and the section below: User_talk:Galobtter#Draft:_Alec_Oxenford

You might want to check in with them before moving forward - they said the article needed to be unsalted before it was published. I'm not sure if that just means removing the comments or something else.

Thanks again,

BC1278 (talk)BC1278

Ahh, just see WP:SALT, it means removing create protection before the page can be moved. Galobtter (talk) 04:15, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
