Wikipedia:Requests for feedback/2010 July 6
Hi,
I appreciate your help in reviewing this article. The article, 'WorldFriends', is basically an info sheet on the website www.WorldFriends.tv. Please help to see if it provides the essential information on a site. All suggestions welcome, thanks in advance!
- Nice job on the layout but I'm not sure the subject matter meets the Wikipedia notability standards. For more information take a look at : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability . Shearonink (talk) 04:11, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Just wanted to know if this was acceptable to be posted. I'm sure once word gets around there will be other edits.
Thanks.
- There are some quite basic issues here. Take a look at Wikipedia:Tutorial. You might find it helps. Yaris678 (talk) 18:32, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Please review page... i'm trying to get a company posted in wikipedia that has bee around for 15 years. Thanks!
I believe this article is ready to go live. I would appreciate your help in proofreading, and also verifying my neutral point of view. Comments are greatly appreciated as this is my first contribution to Wikipedia!
EDIT: I forgot to mention that there is already an article titled "Trac." I may require advise and/or help changing the tile of my article to "TRAC (Information Technology Suite)" and also making some form of index page to eliminate confusion between the two pieces of software with very similar names.

Hello, I'm looking for feedback on this page regarding the P.T. Barnum awards, hosted by Tufts University, which honors Tufts alumni who have succeeded in the entertainment industry. I would welcome comments or additional information. Thank you
- Good article! :) I can tell you put a ton of work into that. Nice writing, fair amount of references. Well done! I'll go ahead and remove the unreviewed template from the top. Take care, Pianotech (talk) 01:34, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

You should wait for others to write an article about subjects in which you are personally involved, instead of writing it yourself, as you did at User:Adiat Disu/Adireé Fashion Agency. This applies to articles about you, your achievements, your band, your business, your publications, your website, your relatives, and any other possible conflict of interest.
Creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged. If you create such an article, it might be listed on articles for deletion. Deletion is not certain, but many feel strongly that you should not start articles about yourself. This is because independent creation encourages independent validation of both significance and verifiability. All edits to articles must conform to Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, and Wikipedia:Verifiability.
If you are not "notable" under Wikipedia guidelines, creating an article about yourself may violate the policy that Wikipedia is not a personal webspace provider and would thus qualify for speedy deletion. If your achievements, etc., are verifiable and genuinely notable, and thus suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later. (See Wikipedia:Wikipedians with articles.) Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:10, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
- Hello there! Certainly a noble cause and not a bad article stub, but you definitely need work on you references (don't take it personally, practically every article could use more references :)) References from your own site or from press releases do not count as reliable sources, for obvious reason. I suggest you try and find some references to the org that are independent and verifiable. Next, once you get a few references, you'll want to make sure they're formatted correctly and show up as inline citations (think "footnotes"). A good read would be WP:Referencing for beginners; you'll pick it up fast, I'm sure. If I can be of any help, feel free to post a message on my talk page. Good luck!

- Interesting article and well-written! :) Just about every article on Wikipedia can be improved; what I notice about yours is that you need help getting your references formatted correctly so they are more like footnotes. This makes it easier for readers to see what parts of the article the references point to. I recommend you read WP:Referencing for beginners to get that part nailed down. It's easy to do once you do it once or twice. If I can be of any help in that regard, feel free to post a request for help on my talk page and I'll be sure and reply. Best of luck :) Pianotech (talk) 00:59, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
