October 2024

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Timothy Adebayo. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Shadow311 (talk) 20:01, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Timothy Adebayo (October 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by AlphaBetaGamma were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Timothy Adebayo and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Opyquad! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 00:15, 4 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

After months of editing on Wikipedia, I created my first article (a biography), but it was rejected despite using sufficient and reliable sources. Can I contest a rejection? Opyquad (talk) 13:42, 5 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Timothy Adebayo has been accepted

Timothy Adebayo, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Ways to improve Oyedunni Arulogun

Hello, Opyquad,

Thank you for creating Oyedunni Arulogun.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Thanks for creating!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Vanderwaalforces}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:56, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright @Vanderwaalforces The page is open to valuable contributions. Opyquad (talk) 10:05, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Anytime! Always reach out when in doubt. Happy editing. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:21, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Vanderwaalforces I just introduced two links to the page. Will it be sufficient to remove the tag? Kindly check. Opyquad (talk) 10:28, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That was incorrect. You should not add external links on prose in English Wikipedia. The page is an orphan and what that means is that there are no other articles on English Wikipedia currently linking to this one. To de-orphan, you have to look for other articles on English Wikipedia that mentions Oyedunni Arulogun and wikilink the name like this [[Oyedunni Arulogun]] (if you are using the code editor). Kindly read WP:WIKILINK to see what a wikilink is. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:45, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I get it. I will revert the last links. Thanks for the clarifications. Opyquad (talk) 10:50, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I already reverted your edit. So don't bother. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:53, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see. I just wikilink from Chrisland University I hope this is right now? Opyquad (talk) 10:56, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now, that is what I'm talking about. Happy editing, again. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:59, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Great! Opyquad (talk) 11:02, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Opyquad, on the other hand, do you have any sort of connection with Oyedunni Arulogun? It will make things clearer if I am made aware of any. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 12:39, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Vanderwaalforces I'm not in anyway connected to the subject. I was only inspired by one of her interviews I stumbled upon online. 102.89.68.102 (talk) 13:21, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's fair enough. Please, always stay logged in while making edits or replying in talk pages. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:47, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright. I was actually having connection issue at the time Opyquad (talk) 18:46, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ibjaja055 (talk) 21:01, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ibjaja055 I think it is best to discuss ways to improve the article instead of deletion. Opyquad (talk) 06:42, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
