Ygnacio Palomares (person) moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Ygnacio Palomares (person), is very incomplete, and does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. . I've moved your draft to draftspace as Draft: Ygnacio Palomares where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

  • Hi Robman94! I wanted to see if you had any recommendations for Jcsalguero on his draft. He wants to create a new page for Ygnacio Palomares independent of the page for Rancho San Jose. My recommendations were to work on further expanding his draft, fill out the empty sections, and add more sourcing, especially those that focus on Palomares. Do you have anything to add? He wants to turn this from a redirect into an article. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:37, 14 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
The main thing you need to do before you create a new article is gather up citations from reliable sources because there are folks who monitor the new page log and they will flag pages without citations for speedy deletion. Once you've got the sources, extract info from them to build the page. If you know facts personally and want to include them, Google them first and find proof that your facts are indeed true. If you can't find too many reliable sources for your article, it might just be that the subject doesn't warrant an article yet. Robman94 (talk) 21:04, 14 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi Robman94. I actually made many changes last night over a 5 hour period in my Sandbox, but the changes did not stick. I had doubled the citations, included 5 different pictures and expanded each of the sections by a good amount. Those changes are not there and I'm hoping to be able to recover them somehow. Is that possible? The thought of reproducing 5 hour of work seems overwhelming and maybe unnecessary if someone at Wikipedia can retrieve my work somehow. Please advise. Ygnacio Palomares definitely deserves his own page and I worked diligently to prove as such. Thank you for your time. Jcsalguero (talk) 21:16, 14 May 2019 (UTC)jcsalgueroReply

I don't know why your changes wouldn't stick, my guess is that you didn't actually save them. Maybe you kept using the "Show preview" button and never actually saved them. I sometimes experiment with syntax in my sandbox and the changes don't disappear. But regardless, the sandbox isn't the right place to do this coding, you should do it in the Draft:Ygnacio Palomares page that DGG created for you. Robman94 (talk) 22:18, 14 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Jcsalguero:, I have updated the draft article by combining duplicate references and adding several more references, I also added a little bit of content where needed to justify using a new ref. If it were up to me, this is easily good enough to be an article in mainspace. I see that the decline notice says "Please note that if the issues are not fixed, the draft will be declined again" but it doesn't list the issues, and the tips are just a generic template, so I don't know what more they are looking for. I see that you've added some photos that you've taken yourself, so I'm guessing you live in the area. If that is so, I wonder if you could take some pics of the murals mentioned here?
