19:20:26, 30 August 2018 review of draft by Windy.w.k.smith[edit]


Hello, I've clicked on the "Submit your draft for review!" button a few times and it's redirecting me to an editing page. When I come back to read the draft, the Submit for review button is still there, and it says that the draft is NOT currently submitted for review. Can you please let me know what I'm doing wrong, or what I can do to make sure the article gets submitted for review. Thank You! Windy.w.k.smith (talk) 19:20, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Since your article has just been reviewed (and unfortunately declined), then I assume you succeeded in submitting it. If you are still having problems submitting to AfC, please re-comment below. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:59, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I seen that article is long time no review! Khin Thet Htay is high-ranking lady in Myanmar. She served former First Lady of Myanmar. And current Spouse of First Vice President of Myanmar since 30 March 2016. Need to review article asap. Thar Sis (talk) 22:25, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thar Sis. As it notes in the yellow box at the bottom of your draft, reviews can take up to two months (or even longer). AfC currently has around 3500 drafts submitted. Additionally, reviews aren't done on a sense of importance (how would we ever agree what is more important!), instead reviewers pick which drafts to do - usually in our areas of interest or expertise, though there is a focus on the older drafts.
In the meantime, you should improve your draft so it isn't declined at review. Most importantly, you need significantly better sources. Primary sources (like those from the ministry of information) are good for proving specific facts, but can't support what we call notability which is that there is sufficient reliable information about someone to support their article. This needs secondary sources (like independent newspapers, journal articles, books etc) that are independent from the article subject, reliable and also cover Khin Thet Htay in depth.
