The Photograph That Changed My Life

Dear Theroadislong,

My references are from Financial Times, Guardian and RPS websites, I wonder why you don't accept these articles as reliable, secondary sources that are independent. I think they are very reliable and very independent resources.

Best, elifnurk

JONITA DODA ARTICLE

thanks for the review , the concerned actor is highly notable and the only amazon link i added is a watch link of her movie as amazon is one the biggest OTT platform today.maybe i dont know the technical language of wikipedia as im new...sir why dont you correct the article im attaching the reference links and can send you the data i have collected and written.or you can recommend an author who writes about actors for me to learn better.

Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure

@Theroadislong:

Hi there, I've declared my employee and client as per the Paid-contribution disclosure you suggested. Would you mind having a look at my page to if that is suffice to move forward?

Many thanks in advanced.

changes made to the Clay Reynolds article

Thank you for your feedback about the 2nd submission of the Clay Reynolds draft article. Unfortunately I have been busy and I wanted to research Wiki policy so I can discuss the editorial issues correctly. I resubmitted it today. Several of the approvers were under the impression that Wikipedia forbids the use of primary sources for biographies of living people. In fact, Wiki has an official policy on the use of self-published sources as sources on themselves and that to do so 5 criteria must be met . In the talk section I explain how my submission follows this policy. I mention also that a similar article about an American author John Updike contains 18 direct quotes from the author and links to about 12 published articles and speeches which were written by the author himself. By my count, my article only includes 2 or 3 direct quotes from the author and about 12-15 links to writings by the author. I will add though that after the 2nd time submitting, I have added several more secondary sources, so I would guess that 2/3 of the references are now from secondary sources. Anyway, I resubmitted it again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robert J Nagle (talkcontribs) 06:37, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See other poor quality articles exist for that argument, you have not addressed the issues I raised so I will leave it for another reviewer thanks. Theroadislong (talk) 08:50, 23 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand your point here. Are you saying that older Wiki articles don't need to follow the same official policies that new ones do? The John Updike article is almost 20 years old, has been well-edited and vetted and is perfectly compatible with the current policy ( WP:ABOUTSELF ) I cited for my submission. I'm sorry if I sound defensive, but I have gone to great lengths to respond to everybody's points and incorporate their feedback. Robert J Nagle (talk) 23:37, 6 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick thank you

I understand you're working to help folks like me and you're also abiding by Wikipedia's guidelines, so just wanted to say thanks for keeping an eye out and ensuring folks like me get it right when we spend time here. SportsGuy17 (talk) 20:28, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jyash Tholiya Page Review

Hi,

Jyash Tholiya is really a known Child prodigy. I have seen the pages for the Children who are just featured in 1 or 2 Movies and with a small role too and still have their Wikipedia mentions or just 1 or 2 awards and they have been mentioned or covered on Wikipedia. Jyash is doing a very good job for this world. Please at least visit his Facebook page or YouTube Channel and you will understand that people from various parts of the world like to hear his series of National Anthems. His work is not limited to National Anthems but to other areas of work related to spreading the message of peace, prosperity, and love. He has been covered in National Media, regional media and all the citations have already been put on his page. Also, he has many awards and records to his credit. Those are as well cited in the draft.

He definitely deserves his Wikipedia page. If you suggest, some changes or more citations will/can also be done. Please guide. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashish.tholiya (talkcontribs) 03:49, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid it is irrelevant what Facebook and YouTube have to say about Draft:Jyash Tholiya they are not reliable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 08:25, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thompsons Solicitors Scotland - Article Review

Hi Theroadislong,

Thank you for reviewing the draft page for Thompsons Solicitors Scotland. One of the reasons for attempting to get the page approved is that Thompsons Solicitors Scotland has a distinct identity from Thompsons in England. Although growing out of the same original firm founded in 1921, The Scottish firm was founded separately, is run seperately, and works almost exclusively under Scottish law and within the Scottish judicial system (whereas the English firm does not).

I have noted your comments regarding certain aspects of the text which are promotional in their nature and I will address them as soon as possible. Having looked at the Thompsons (England) article, I feel I have included lots of notable information in relation to the Scottish firm. The sections/topics included are fundamental to the firm's ethos of helping individuals in Scotland seek access to justice as well as describing their involvement in precedent-setting cases and campaigning, both of which are verifiable and notable. However, would it be better to strip back some of the information - perhaps the list of Notable Cases is too long and maybe I should only include those that have been mentioned in the press, rather than citing the actual judgments.

Again, thank you for taking the time to review the article and I would be very grateful for any further help and advice. ShimsCabot (talk) 11:45, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rapita Systems Draft

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Rapita_Systems

hi there,

May you please help me understand why the draft was declined. I'm not asking out of arrogance but I genuinely want to learn about the issue of citations and how many is enough. I thought everything provided was enough as I have seen organization pages with far less citations and information but the pages are up and running e.g. LDRA and Vector Informatik

Many thanks

Tauqir Sharif

What makes Tauqir Sharif notable is newspaper coverage on his aid work, his citizenship revocation and his arrest and detention by HTS in Syria. Amirah talk 18:32, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The single sentence sections do very little to show any notability, perhaps you could expand it a little? Theroadislong (talk) 18:36, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:NEXIST notability is in the subject not the article. Please show me where it says in Wikipedia Guidelines or Policies that notability needs to be demonstrated in the sections before an article can be published. Amirah talk 00:52, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You have edit warred with 4 experienced users, clearly you know best, good luck. Theroadislong (talk) 08:08, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[1] Amirah talk 20:41, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AmirahBreen All edits I made to your draft were in good faith and were improvements, there was no demolishing involved. Theroadislong (talk) 20:46, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I don't doubt that your edits were good faith, but between the editors involved I felt like I was getting contradictory advice. This essay reflects how I felt. Because I just did a Google search for it, I also just found [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:An_unfinished_house_is_a_real_problem] which I haven't read before. Now if you could have shared with me an essay like that, instead of your comment to my request for a better understanding of [[WP:NEXIST]] it would have helped. Amirah talk 21:00, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The article I published was more at the stage of architectural plans than an unfinished house, but since it was put back to draft I have been working on it, and I feel it is beginning to take shape. I will refrain from moving it to mainspace again before it is ready. Amirah talk 21:16, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Theroadislong, what should be done with this article? Was it one of the Upwork ticketed articles? If so, should connected contributor (paid) be added to the talk page with the user banned tag? I'm also pondering if we need to scrub it out for neutrality or whether it's more likely to be AFD'ed. AngusW🐶🐶F (barksniff) 18:27, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

AngusWOOF I don't know if this was one of the Upwork ticketed articles, I accepted it as borderline notable, happy for it to go to AFD or be hacked back, not sure what policy is on undisclosed paid editing, once the article has been accepted? Theroadislong (talk) 19:11, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If you're convinced the person is notable and that the sources provided are balanced, then it can stay and we can scrub and hack it for promotional tone. It certainly seems like there is coverage in reliable sources; I'm just not sure if it's mainly the good parts that are being covered. If UPE is rampant, then even if the article is scrubbed, it would go to CSD/AFD, and I don't want to waste my time scrubbing if that will happen. I've been burned by that before, scrubbing one of them pretty nicely, but because the other main contributor was paid, it got AFD'ed Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Deborah_Smith_Pegues. AngusW🐶🐶F (barksniff) 21:53, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Normally, the paid editor would self-disclose, and then make edit requests after the article goes into mainspace, no longer directly editing the article. During the draft phase I usually let them keep editing unless the tone indicates they can't do that neutrally. AngusW🐶🐶F (barksniff) 21:57, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No Source

What do you mean no source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by YouTubeGamer17 (talkcontribs) 20:44, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia only publishes articles for topics that have received significant coverage in reliable sources, your draft has none. Theroadislong (talk) 20:52, 2 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

translation

hi thanks for your reply back there in "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:%D9%85%D8%B7%D8%A7%D8%B9%D9%85_%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%85%D9%88%D9%86%D9%87" i believe that now i am ready to translate the page from arabic to english, but can you please guide how to do that? for me to use translate tool i have to become Autoconfirmed first, also please guide in how to show the page in multiple languages 'i will take care of translating myself'.

looking forward to hearing from you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abodiiyi (talkcontribs) 09:06, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I do not speak Arabic so would not be confident in advising you, but a sample of the text translates as "In order to continue the success and excellence and meet the needs of the customer, it has several branches in the city of Riyadh" would indicate that it is NOT appropriate content for an encyclopedia article, being very promotional. Theroadislong (talk) 09:19, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

can you please check if anything is good enough then i may proceed with the submission. as this is the first time for me to create an article here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abodiiyi (talkcontribs) 09:47, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

sorry no the draft Draft:مطاعم ليمونه] is entirely promotional and unacceptable. Theroadislong (talk) 10:24, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

checking on draft

since "Draft:مطاعم ليمونه" is not very suitable, as a company where we can post our own business information? isn't Wikipedia creating pages for restaurants and companies? im really confused at this point i had to change this article 73 times and still not suitable — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abodiiyi (talkcontribs) 11:24, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You can't I'm afraid, that is NOT what Wikipedia is for. Your draft does not show with significant coverage in multiple published independent reliable sources how this organisation meets the Wikipedia definition of a notable organisation. Please review the criteria. Please also read WP:COI. Theroadislong (talk) 11:54, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 18:12:04, 4 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Trail972


I am trying to de-orphan Wikipedia page Walter Boardman Kerr by linking it to another Wikipedia page, Philips Academy, where WBK is listed by name on a list of notable alumni. I clicked on the link button in my sandbox thinking that would do it, but apparently I need to do something else. Can you assist me? Thanks. Trail972 (talk) 18:12, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Trail972 (talk) 18:12, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Trail972 When an article is tagged for being an orphan, it means there are no other articles on Wikipedia that point to it. Walter Boardman Ker is linked to Philips Academy, and vice versa, you create a wiki link by placing two square brackets in front and behind the word you want to be link, it's not something you need to submit a request for just be bold and do it.

review draft

hi there, i have been talking to Wikipedia administrators to tell me about the rejected draft :"Draft:مطاعم ليمونه", they have guided me to delete the mission and vision and locations as they are considered Promotional, also they guided to add achievements and history of company so i did so, please now review the draft again for approval as now everything is being ligament and also i have created Wikidata page and would like to link them together so i can have the page shown in Arabic — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abodiiyi (talkcontribs) 22:27, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure who else has advised you but the topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia, so it is pointless to re-submit. Theroadislong (talk) 22:55, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

janani krishnamurthy

hi regarding the above-mentioned subject, why has the draft been rejected. Janani Krishnamurthy -she deserves recognition and is Indias top 100 women icon in and has been awarded for her excellence in the field of animal and environmental welfare.No one from south Inida has got this award before that too a person whos from the rural parts of Tamilnadu. Do consider this and let us know what we need to change in the draft for it to be published. regards Kodaikanal spca team — Preceding unsigned comment added by KODAIKANALSPCA (talkcontribs) 16:01, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly your draft Draft:Janani Krishnamurthy is totally promotional in tone, with zero indication of notability, you have a clear conflict of interest, an unsuitable user name (promotional) with undisclosed paid editing and user accounts are strictly for single person use. Theroadislong (talk) 16:25, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

10,000 Takes

Hi! I'm new to wikipedia and wanted to make a page about a media company in Minnesota called 10,000 Takes. I saw back in the summer you declined it, saying it needed more independent sourcing. I went and added some more, is it satisfactory now? If not, what all do you need in order to make it approvable?

I see now that the draft page is gone entirely, what happened?

Request on 05:56:27, 7 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Pilgrimhawk


Thank you for notifying me on the on your review on a draft i submitted. The reference rationale of the draft is as follows: A specific claim is pointed to a credible source that substantiates the claim though the source does not have exhaustive mention of the fact, nevertheless the fact remains undeniable. The citations come from credible media - most of them have their own Wikipedia page. May i request that this draft be considered as a stub - that other volunteers could work on and improve - afterall WikiPedia is a collective enterprise.

I need some more clarification on what are the standards universally and uniformally applied to existing Wiki articles. I found many articles that fall miserably short of any of these standards. Could we discuss on what credibility such articles continue to exist - may be i could learn a few things i missed noticing and do a better job next time. Thank you.pilgrimhawk 05:56, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Bruce R. James

Hi there,

Thanks for your comments on the draft. The use of "distinguished" in the description comes from the fact that Mr. James received two distinguished public service awards that carry that very same title. Therefore, in using "distinguished" it was merely paraphrasing the very awards he has received and been recognized for his public service. How would you recommend then I go about describing it if not using the exact title for which he was recognized? Thank you for you insight and assistance with this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VMVS2021 (talkcontribs) 20:22, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If he received the awards then he might be described as a "Distinguished Nevadan in 2013" you have no source for that though and it doesn't appear to be a notable award? Theroadislong (talk) 20:27, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 01:34:17, 15 December 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by MLGraber


I had submitted a draft of an article on a non-profit organization, The Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine. The draft was declined, and the rationale stated was that it sounded too much like an advertisement. I need some advice on how to address this, as I tried to write it in a very neutral tone, and I included a number of citations to outside content areas that can easily be verified (for example the Society's annual conferences, the Society's journal, DIAGNOSIS). The Society is now 10 years old with a number of notable accomplishments in terms of advancing patient safety internationally.

Thanks for any advice.

Publishing a new Wikepedia entry on THE SOCIETY TO IMPROVE DIAGNOSIS IN MEDICINE

Hi Theroadislong,

I believe you were the reviewer for a draft page I submitted on SIDM, the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine. I am a novice Wikipedia author and would value your help addressing the problems you identified and getting this published.

SIDM is now 10 years old, and as a non-profit organization it now has a lengthy list of important contributions to advancing patient safety internationally. The Society has sponsored annual meetings in the US since 2008, and meetings in Australia and Europe over the past several years. The Society has its own journal, DIAGNOSIS. The Society successfully petitioned the Institute of Medicine (now called the The National Academy of Medicine) to conduct and publish a landmark report on patient safety in 2005, 'Improving Diagnosis in Health Care'. The webpage of the Society has a number of valuable resources for patients, physicians, leaders of healthcare organizations, etc.

It seems like posting an article on the organization would be a valuable thing for people to be able to read.

Any advice would be appreciated on how to move this forward.

Thx....

Gary Nader Article Plagiarism Errors

Hi Theroadislong, I see my last edit to the Gary Nader page was reverted. The only reason I changed it was because apparently a number of lines in the article are plagiarised. I don't recall cutting and pasting anything that wasn't changed to make it unique, but I went in to re-write sections that a plagiarism checking software was indicating as problematic. Is this really an issue I should try to fix, or is it possible that a previous copy of the article is being used as the "original" article to which the current one (basically the same article) is being compared and being declared as plagiarism? Also, there is no sense trying to fix it if all my edits will just be reverted anyway. Please advise, thanks in advance. --Glassdaughter (talk) 02:10, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Need help in creating a wikipage for my firm CRE Matrix

Hi Theroadislong,

Few months back I tried creating a wiki page for my firm CRE Matrix, as I'm new to this, the page got rejected or was held in review as it didn't match the quality standards. Can you help me form the page.

About my firm CRE Matrix, (www.crematrix.com) it's a real estate data analytics firm based in Mumbai, India. We provide authentic data and research reports in the real estate market for brokers, developers and bankers. We have IndexTap (www.indextap.com) and Floortap a product for our regular consumers that provide authentic data for home buyers/sellers and for renting purposes.

Hence, I will be highly obliged if you could help me create a wiki page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aarya.rane92 (talkcontribs) 12:06, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but Wikipedia doesn't host "pages" about companies. Wikipedia is NOT for merely providing information. A Wikipedia article about an organisation must summarise what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about them, showing how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable organisation. Wikipedia has no interest in what you want to say about it only in what others unaffiliated with the business choose to say about it. Theroadislong (talk) 12:08, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Theroadislong for reviewing Michael P. Snyder's page so quickly!

I very much appreciate the feedback regarding links to Wikipedia/Amazon & I am going through the document now to remove these links, replace as many as possible with non-Wikipedia/Amazon links!

Thank you for your response.

Recently, an "editor" opted to delete another user's 4-months worth of work to the discography (as well as any other subsequent changes over 4 months) ), rather than copy edit it to improve the article . It was obvious the original user was not a native English speaker, but it was also obvious that they provided a great deal of insight and information that is now lacking in the page. The loss of information was a disservice to our community.

I looked at the Japanese wikipedia article and it is even more detailed, and the timeline that I asked for review of its translation provided much of the information removed from the discography. Is that translation acceptable for the page? And how do I get the sources to properly copy over?

I am not the user whose work was impacted, but a light user of the page who used the page for information that became no longer there.

You can discuss content issues at Talk:Tatsuro Yamashita, it is not something for AFC to be involved with I'm afraid. Theroadislong (talk) 18:16, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Multiple sources that (1) discuss the subject at some length, (2) have competent editorial oversight that fact-checks, discloses, and retracts as necessary, and (3) have no direct connexion to the subject or their surrogates (i.e. they can't have written or commissioned the source). —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 22:43, 19 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comments. I have a list of references in the external links section. Does it need a lot more? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Keavenen (talkcontribs) 16:35, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:ChonBlia Yang

Hello,

To answer your comment as follow: This appears to contain a lot of content unconnected to ChongBlia Yang? Theroadislong (talk) 13:34, 20 December 2021 (UTC).

Please take a bit your time to read what I am going to explain. I am not sure if I can explain what you want. However, the purpose of my draft page "ChongBlia Yang" is to talk about "ChongBlia Yang and his descendants who lived in Ban Phou Pheun Noi. Who they are and where they were from?

In fact, ChongBlia Yang is my great-great-grandparent. I am the 6th generation of him. This "draft:ChongBlia Yang" is partially related to another Wikipedia page that is "Ban Phou Pheung Noi".

ChongBlia was a Miao / Hmong people immigrant born in Laos, but his parents and great-grandparents were from China. They are part of the Miao / Hmong people living in the south east Asia countries. In this article, I just want to let people all around the world to know where Miao/Hmong people were from and who they are?

Should ChongBlia Yang page deserves to be in Wikipedia page? I think that should be " yes" for the reasons: [1] he is the paternal of the Yang families who lived in Ban Phou Pheung Noi. These Miao peple have been joined the General Vang Pao military troops during the Vietnam war as US allies. Some of them have been killed in front of the battle fight to save the US military people during this war. {2} ChongBlia Yang is a Miao / Hmong people immigrant to Laos from the Southern of China. There, I want to demonstrate who they are and where do the Miao/Hmong people origin from? What is Miao? Why people call them Miao? What is about tribe and how may tribes they were? This is why I use "ChongBlia Yang page to talk about my origin, especially "Miao / Hmong people". These aborigines died for a mean to the US military during the Vietnam War.

I think this would answer a part of the questions that you left in my talk page. Please let me know if you need some more explanations about this.

Thank you.17:21, 20 December 2021 (UTC) NruasPaoYPP (talk) 17:21, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, but it appears that your draft Draft:ChongBlia Yang is about a non notable person in Wikipedia terms. Theroadislong (talk) 17:57, 20 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution.
