Welcome![edit]

Hello, Rolonm915, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; 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.

Draft:David Alfaro Siqueiros (Mark Rolon)[edit]

Hi! I received a notice that you had moved your sandbox live and it was nominated for deletion. From what I can see, the sandbox looks more like a collection of notes, so it's not really ready to be moved live.

The article needs to have in-line cites to back up specific claims. It also has a fairly casual style, as you use terms like "I", which should not be used in articles. You also have some opinion phrases in there, such as "very bold man". While he's done some gutsy things, calling him very bold can be seen as an opinion - one person may not necessarily agree that he's bold, whereas another would. "The norm" is another example of this, as what's considered normal is fairly relative to the individual person. You could say something like "he began to stray away from his normal style", as this would be more specific.

I hope the pointers help! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:21, 13 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Rolonm915. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "David Alfaro Siqueiros".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. » Shadowowl | talk 17:01, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
