08:04:28, 15 December 2022 review of draft by Dheeran vamsam[edit]


Dheeran vamsam (talk) 08:04, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dheeran vamsam: you don't ask a question, but I have rejected your draft and requested that it be deleted. This is not a suitable title or approach for an article, to say nothing of the fact that it was pretty incoherent and completely unreferenced.
We welcome your contributions, but I would suggest that you start by editing some existing articles first, until you become familiar with the way articles are put together and how the site works generally. When you feel ready to create your first article, please see WP:YFA and use the article wizard. In the meantime, you can ask for help at the TEAHOUSE. Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:11, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Wolfgang Radecke, I don't quite understand your question but if this is a general editing question, I recommend the Teahouse or maybe WikiProject Math. S0091 (talk) 20:33, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Wolfgang Radecke This draft is a math paper, which is "original research". Wikipedia does not allow WP:OR. David10244 (talk) 07:01, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 13:36:48, 15 December 2022 for assistance on AfC submission by Angelagh[edit]


I would like to get specific feedback on how to improve this article instead of the same generic responses. What exactly needs to be changed -- highlight specific wording or phrases that don't meet the standards. I'm feeling stuck as I've made significant changes in the last few edits but received the exact same rejection message from the original to the vastly modified versions.

Thanks for your help!

Angelagh (talk) 13:36, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Angelagh: this draft has so many issues, the POV being just one of them, that to provide a comprehensive listing would be quite an undertaking; probably easier if I were to rewrite this myself (which I obviously won't). I also can't help noting that you've been paid to write this, so... isn't the onus on you, rather, to figure out how to write it in a way that is acceptable? Or am I being unreasonable? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:42, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
My specific feedback would be to spend a few months editing Wikipedia to get a feel for how things work, you are being paid to edit and we are all volunteers here, why should we help you? Your draft will need a complete re-write, IMDb is never a reliable source and her Fan club website clearly isn't independent. Theroadislong (talk) 14:21, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This profile is not a joke. Zachary Debacco has made significant contributions to the Sarasota County Area. He encourage and brought the IB program to Venice High. Without him, the school and the program would probably be wildly different. He just means so much to us students, the parents, and the community. He's been with the school for over 20 years, and we are just trying to show him some love. Johnnyhelpingyou (talk) 19:08, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Johnnyhelpingyou Wikipedia is not a place to recognize or honor someone, but a place to summarize what independent reliable sources say about a topic. You could try alternative forums with less stringent requirements. 331dot (talk) 21:17, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Johnnyhelpingyou Wikipedia doesn't publish profiles. We want encyclopedia articles. As 331dot mentioned, you'll need independent, published references on which to base an article. David10244 (talk) 07:07, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I was wondering if adding info on Seterra memberships and their benefits would be considered advertising? Thanks, Matthew. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MasterMatt12 (talk • contribs) 20:57, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@mastermatt12: if you could write it in a neutral point of view, no, it would not be advertising. lettherebedarklight晚安 08:37, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

21:09:56, 15 December 2022 review of draft by ElisabethDiAngelo[edit]


I replaced all sources. Is it fine now?

ElisabethDiAngelo (talk) 21:09, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@elisabethdiangelo: i would say no.
Source assessment table:
Source Independent? Reliable? Significant coverage? Count source toward GNG?
https://www.citizensoldierband.com/about No this source is the band's website. Yes i would hope that the band is reliable about the band, Yes and that they would cover themselves significantly. ✘ No
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrwvdRxFt-E&t=1731s No interviews with the subject are not independent of the subject. No this is someone's youtube channel. Yes yeah, 50 minutes of this. ✘ No
https://indiebandguru.com/citizen-soldier/ No again, interviews with the subject are not independent of the subject. ? i am uncertain, and it's a moot point anyway. Yes ✘ No
https://open.spotify.com/artist/7fM0h2CG7zKqKc0jEa1b4R No this is just the spotify link for the band No No ✘ No
https://centerstagemag.com/article/3340/Citizen-Soldier--Down-the-Rabbit-Hole No yet again, interviews with the subject are not independent of the subject. ? uncertain but moot Yes ✘ No
