11:54:56, 18 December 2014 review of submission by Sciambro[edit]


Hello I submitted an article for review on Oct 29th. It's my first one. It hasn't been reviewed yet. Are things still backed up or did I do something incorrectly?

@Sciambro: Accepted, with some cleanup work carried out by me. Bellerophon talk to me 13:43, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 12:30:36, 18 December 2014 for assistance on AfC submission by Deallegretti[edit]

Draft:Damian Allegretti

Hi My name is Damian Allegretti.... I made an article about me. I'm a drummer and composer. I tried to copy other articles as much as possible to be accord to you, and have the article written the way you want.. I don't understand why you consider it as an advertisement.... It's about an artist, and it was written from a neutral point of view... It has a lot of external links in page of South America, Europe and U.S... I'd like to have an answer or a recheck if it's possible...

thanks for your time

@Deallegretti: Having self-released only a single 'work' you fall very short of the notability requirements for musicians and ensembles. Wikipedia is not a profile site and there is little tolerance for autobiographies. Bellerophon talk to me 13:54, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

The following page, "Claire Mackay", was deleted because of an unambiguous copyright issue. I sent a request to the person that deleted it for an explanation but I haven't received a reply.

regards,

@Jmacka27: Wikipedia generally does not allow text in articles to be copied and pasted from any other website, including sites that you have created yourself. Text found on other websites is always assumed to be copyrighted unless specified otherwards. Please see WP:COPYRIGHT for more information. For more information on the limited cases in which text from other sites is allowed, see WP:Donating copyrighted materials. Note that even if there aren't copyright issues, most text copied from other sites is not written in the correct tone for Wikipedia, is often promotional, is unsourced, and would generally not be approved as an article. --Ahecht (TALK

User:Rakib120, you submitted a blank article, there's nothing to review. Please see WP:Your first article for how to start out. Did you perhaps write some content and neglect to hit the "Save/Submit" button? MatthewVanitas (talk) 00:37, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

20:53:43, 18 December 2014 review of submission by Rbebee[edit]

 Done

At bottom of edit page I get message "Warning: This page should probably be moved, but a page already exists at Draft:Sandbox. Rbebee (talk) 20:53, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What next, I'm trying to edit article?

Hello Rbebee, fixed it for you, but you really need to read our policy WP:Notability, as your draft does not provide any of the required sourcing to show that this is a topic other people have formally researched. MatthewVanitas (talk) 00:35, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
