Hi, I saw Samuell1616 (talk · contribs)(One life to live)’s declining the submission. He said: "Improve the article , remove the promotional references, non reliable music reviews etc and add independent references about the subject including the newly launched album."[1] However, I do not think there are "promotional references". Additionally, according to Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources, websites such as Beats per Minute, Drowned in Sound, The Fader, and Pitchfork Media can be used as reliable sources. To me, it looks like Lapalux now meets WP:BAND criteria #1 ("Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself"). Can someone please take a second look?

Need some clarification on the article submittal process. If you use the article wizard does it automatically move it into WP:AFC or does it publish? Alternatively, if I use my sandbox to draft an article and put at the very top is there somewhere I can verify it has made it into the queue to be reviewed? Appreciate any guidance!SusanChana (talk) 18:26, 13 February 2015 (UTC) SusanChana (talk) 18:26, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

@SusanChana: If you see a yellow box that says "Review waiting" either at the top or bottom of the page, then your article is in the queue to be reviewed. If you see a grey box with a green button that says "Submit your draft for review!" or "Submit your draft when you are ready for it to be reviewed!", then you need to click that button and follow the instructions to get your article in the queue. If you don't see either of those (or a pink "Submission declined box") then you need to put the following code at the top of your page:

{{subst:AFC submission/draftnew}}

Save the page, click the green button that says "Submit your draft when you are ready for it to be reviewed!", and follow the instructions to get your article in the queue. --Ahecht (TALK
