Hello! This has been done in error. The existing page is for Sandbanks Provincial Park in Ontario. The article I submitted is for a completely different park in Newfoundland that happens to have the same name so should not have been rejected on those grounds. Can you please fix?

Hello,

On photo, File:Second Beach, Sandbanks Provincial Park, Burgeo.jpeg, you have a comment "Supplied by author". What does that mean? The image appears to have come from Facebook or Instagram or some Facebook related app. -- Whpq (talk) 01:01, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I took the image myself. RoseCastle (talk) 01:12, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have the original photo before posting to facebook? The version you uploaded has EXIF showing it comes from Facebook and so the authorship of the photo may be challenged. -- Whpq (talk) 01:16, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I took it from my own Facebook page instead of sorting through my phone for it. It absolutely, indisputably belongs to me. I am the photographer. RoseCastle (talk) 01:21, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. You should edit the file summary to add the {{Information}} template with fields filled in. Cheers. -- Whpq (talk) 01:25, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Page was rejected on the grounds it already exists in error; it’s a different Sandbanks Park

My article was rejected but I don’t think the editor who rejected was correct when he says it already exists. I submitted an article for Sandbanks Provincial Park in Newfoundland. The existing page is for a completely different park in Ontario. RoseCastle (talk) 01:06, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed you are correct. I am familiar with the Sandbanks in Ontario. I have posted a note indicating that these are two different parks. And thank you for starting the draft for the Sandbanks in Newfoundland. I've tidied it up a little. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need any help. Regards. -- Whpq (talk) 01:21, 27 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Justin Barbour moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Justin Barbour, 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.

I will review.Most of the links are independently written CBC articles (different journalists at different times) and CBC is our national public broadcaster so I’m not sure why that wouldn’t be considered reputable.

I’m trying to help with some of the major holes in Wikipedia coverage re: rural Newfoundland but am constantly stymied by the fact that was have significantly less news coverage than urban areas RoseCastle (talk) 17:25, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello RoseCastle. I share your sentiments about rural areas of the North. I am from inside the Arctic Circle in Alaska though I am in Anchorage at the moment. What we have at Wikipedia is a worldwide conglomeration of editors from many places. According to the tools I use, the CBC is most definitely a reputable media agency. They are independent of the subject and reliably published. It's just my opinion but the article should be given another glance. I'll look over it and see if anything stands out as a reason why it shouldn't be published. --ARose Wolf 19:32, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm so sorry, I glanced at the article and the sources don't look terrible. However, I need a small break for a few hours and then I will look at it again. --ARose Wolf 19:51, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I appreciate it --RoseCastle (talk) 19:56, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
