- Hi Kirukp, I saw your question at the Tea House and thought I would give you an update: as of now (the date and time after my signature), there are 302 articles in the queue altogether, and yours is about no. 100. Another day or so, perhaps two. David_FLXD (Talk) Review me 03:24, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
- Thats nice, thank you :) Kirukp (talk) 14:23, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
Review Raja article
editHi Kirukp, I took a look at your article (now about no. 65 in the queue, before you ask!). There is no doubt that Review Raja is notable, so that is good: Wikipedia will want to have an article about him. Your sources are very good (except YouTube!); the three Indian newspapers are excellent sources. (Overall, your sources are FAR better than we usually get on a new article first time out!)
However, the article is a little short, and does not follow the guidelines for a biography of a living person. You should have a clearer structure for the article, and you should include an Infobox. Last first, the easiest way to do the infobox is to make a copy from another bio page. Any person's bio article, go into edit and COPY the whole infobox from {{ to }} and paste it into your article. Then just edit all the info for the person who is your topic. If there is anything you don't know, just leave it blank and the infobox will automatically not display that line. Secondly, structure. Your lead paragraph is good, it explains why Review Raja is notable. After that it is usual to say something about the person's early life and education, then something about their career, especially as it relates to why they are now notable, and then perhaps list some of the awards or recognition that they have been given.
I suggest you keep on working on it rather than just let it sit in the queue untouched. When it comes to a reviewer, it should look better than it does now, then it will have a better chance of being accepted. If you need to know anything more, you can ask me on my talk page.

- Hi David_FLXD, I really appreciate it. Your inputs were very helpful indeed. I did try some additions like infobox/ image but I am afraid I don't have anymore info to add. Whatever details I have provided were collected from the Internet itself. However I would get more details from the person(Review Raja) himself once this article is online. Please advise if I could do anything else.
One more thing, I can't figure out how to take this discussion into your talk page. I clicked the talk page link but its confusing. Please help.Kirukp (talk) 12:35, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Messages from Anne Delong
editDear Kirukp: I saw the discussion at the Tea House about your Review Raja page. I checked out what you had written, because I had recently tagged the other Review Raja page for being more like a fan site than an encyclopedia article. I notice that there are some items and references on your page that aren't on the other one - for example the information about the rickshaw contest. I hope that you will contribute to the other page, because it could use some rewriting. —Anne Delong (talk) 19:40, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Anne Delong, Thanks for writing. I was at first heartbroken to find that someone already published the same article. But while reading it now I think it is much better than what I had prepared. Yes, as you said there were some additional references in my article. I had deleted my article few days back. However I will try and collect those links again to contribute the existing page.
- I am a beginner here so trying to explore few things like 'how to add photos to an article?', 'what sort of photos are allowed?' etc. For example can we add photos of Review Raja meeting celebrities, his visit to a film production house, etc., ? Regards,Kirukp (talk) 12:22, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
- Hi again, I did some edit in the Review Raja page and it is now online. Doesn't anyone review my edit before making it online? I am trying to understand how this works. Please advise.Kirukp (talk) 13:22, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

- Dear Kirukp: Even though you have deleted the text from your Review Raja page, it is not really gone. You just have to look back in the page history. Here's a link:[1].
Anyone can edit Wikipedia at any time, unless he or she has been blocked for bad behaviour. Of course, that means that anyone can undo other people's edits at any time, too. When you edit a page there's an option to "watch" the page. So, if someone is watching "Review Raja" and feels that your addition is incorrect or improper, they can remove it. That's why it's important to have references to back up what you enter. So go ahead and edit some articles! Just make sure that you back up what you add with references, and use the "show preview" to make sure that you aren't messing up the format.
Anyone with a login and password can create a page without going through the review process. The problem is, if you don't know what you are doing, your article may be deleted very quickly by other editors. Going through the review process is usually enlightening; if there hadn't already been an article with the same name, the reviewers would have told you what you needed to do to be sure that your article was acceptable. I sometimes still submit an article to the review process if I'm not sure if the subject is "notable" enough. Hope this helps.—Anne Delong (talk) 16:43, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Photos
editDear Kirukp: When uploading photos, you can't use anything that's copyright. If you took the pictures yourself, or if the photographer donates the photo to Wikipedia, your are okay. Otherwise it's not legal and the photo will be deleted. By the way, I realize that I added my original message to your User page instead of the talk page. Since you may want to use your page for something else, I'm going to move this whole thread over to your talk page. —Anne Delong (talk) 16:53, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
