How do I insert a picture of the individual in the article?

Imargo~enwiki (talk) 09:02, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Imargo~enwiki. The answer depends on who holds the copyright to the picture. Assuming that you are not the photographer, carefully study copyright and the image use policy. When you understand those, you'll know whether or not you should proceed.
Adding an image is a two step process: first upload it, then use it in on a page. Use the file upload wizard to upload an image. Then the picture tutorial can guide you through how to use it in an article. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:02, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Delete account. In short, accounts cannot be deleted. Wikipedia:Requested articles is the place for requesting that someone else write an article about a topic. Enterprisey (talk!(formerly APerson) 16:28, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Actually the information about the property development division could be added to the already existing article of the "group" company -Joyalukkas. It has the "advantage" that separate notability does not need to be proven. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 18:44, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

whats you saying joyalukkas is a jewellery and Joyalukkas_Developers its an construction (real estate development) company.Those 2 companies is entirely different under one owner Joy Alukkas. before adding this i had done detail study regarding that i also given more than enough reference.most of the other company profiles with sub companies also showing in Wikipedia.I think its not the problem , Old Wikipedian only have the right to add new article i think they dont like any articles come from a new dedicated users, so i just requesting i dont need any article come under my name or anything, I request you to add Roger (Dodger67) please — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bibinmohan (talkcontribs) 05:09, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My article was accepted, but some of the information and reference links have been removed. Is there anywhere where I can see a reasoning for this or was it a mistake? Will I be able to add this in now that it has been accepted? Thank you.

Yes, I remoced it because it consisted of unacceptable information and then unacceptable sources such as focusing with his business activities, those things were not necessary; particularly, having someone donate to his program alongside going into details about his business activities or his career history seems advert-like.

I've just tagged it for multiple problems. Quite frankly I would have declined this quite blatant hagiography. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:44, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hmariez you simply click the blue "Submit your draft for review" button in the grey box at the top of the page. That will put it into the queue to be reviewed. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 19:48, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I submitted my draft over a week ago and it has not yet been reviewed. Any advice?

Tn90210 (talk) 21:11, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Tn90210, some drafts have been waiting for up to four weeks. See Category:AfC pending submissions by age - your turn will come. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:46, 9 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Also, it would help to address the original review comments, which said that the draft appeared to be written to praise the subject rather than to describe him. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:55, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
