I have re-written the Wikipedia submission a few times. Currently, i do not see what you mean when you say peacock phrases in the article. Could you please cite an example from my article so that i'm clearer? It would really be appreciated. ≈≈≈≈

Dear, I created the page about Ename as a Draft in my sandbox. Now that I have submitted it for review, I had the notice that the page already exists. I controlled and indeed a page "Ename" is redirecting to the page Oudenaarde. What is the best thing to do now? Do I copy my work in the existing page removing the redirecting link or do I wait for the revision of my page and then you will substitute it to the old page? Many thanks for your help,
Carlotta

Hello, I am trying to create a list of companies that are located in the Richmond Region as there is no list elsewhere that gives this kind of information. I've added many companies that are located in the Richmond Region so I don't see how that could be promotional as there is no favoritism towards any one company. There are other pages like List of companies in Dallas and List of companies based in the Harrisburg area and tons of other cities that have such a page so I am curious as to why it was declined for Richmond but allowed for other cities.
Thank you.
- I'm afraid the draft falls foul of Wikipedia is not a directory, so it cannot be accepted at all, sorry. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 21:25, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

How do I add photos to article (draft)?
PaintbrushArt (talk) 18:33, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
- Hello @PaintbrushArt:, please don't worry about photos until if/when the article publishes. No need to add a complicating factor until the basics are worked out.
- Also, notice that you can't just add photos of his copyrighted works to the page, even if "he says it's okay". Adding a photo has actual explicit legal ramifications, so no you can't just download a copy of his work, label it "own work", and post it as Creative Commons, because that would be inaccurately stating a legal claim that the work is out of copyright. You get the point, it's not a simple process, so just focus on getting the article done first, then we can worry about images. MatthewVanitas (talk) 10:55, 1 April 2016 (UTC)
