05:16:31, 20 October 2016 review of submission by Grenouille Älva

edit

My submission was rejected because "the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Indigenous feminism instead". I was not intending to create a new article, but to edit the article that MatthewVanitas rightly directs me to. I thought I had submitted it as an edition, not as request for the creation of a new article. My question is then: how can I submit my draft as an edition of an existent article?

Your help will be greatly appreciated,

Hi Grenouille Älva You do not submit edits to existing articles, you just do them directly. Only entirely new articles are reviewed. If you are not sure about your intended edit you are welcome to discuss it on the article's talk page. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 05:26, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I submitted an article of my background and experiences on September 13, 2016, it seems as though it has been rejected. I don't understand why, and most of all I don't know how to correct the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello, Michael. The person who can best answer the question of why your submission was declined is the reviewer who looked at it. You'll find the reviewer's name and talk-page button at the top of your submission. I did take a quick look at your submission, and I agree with the reviewer's statement that your submission is not in an appropriate format. For an example of an appropriately-written article on a medical researcher, see the article on Alexander Fleming. NewYorkActuary (talk) 10:27, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good morning, and thank you so much for your response in the article on Alexander Fleming. I'm trying to analyze the the problem I think is distinctly possible I haven't given the proper title to the article. What I'm trying to illustrate is nothing more or less than a lifetime of experience. with reference to Alexander Fleming's article, he is a researcher I have created and operate a research company. We are a statistical research company that simply evaluates the claims of the manufacture. We are not researchers, we created the methodology to do medical research. I hope this is of some help in resolving my obvious mistakes? Thank you for your time and for your. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michael Burgio (talkcontribs) 11:40, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Read the autobiography guideline and the conflict of interest guideline. Writing an article about yourself is discouraged. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:38, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I need assistance for writing the information about the company Paprsky services private limited. Kindly let me know how can I include this article in Wikipedia. I would like to know where the things went wrong. Please help.

@Paprsky: Welcome to the Help Desk. As I see it, there are three problems here, the first of which is fixable. The other two are probably not.
  1. Your username is the same as the name of the company about which you are writing. Wikipedia prohibits the use of usernames that unambiguously represent companies, as well as usernames that suggest that the account is shared by multiple people. You must now change your username so that it complies with Wikipedia policy.
  2. Since your username is the same as the company name, it appears that you may have a conflict of interest due to a possible connection with the company. Conflict-of-interest editing is strongly discouraged on Wikipedia; the vast majority of people find it incredibly difficult to write neutrally and objectively about a subject with which they are closely connected. This leads to my third point:
  3. Wikipedia isn't an advertising repository or a place to host "get the word out"-style information about newly formed companies. We collectively allow articles on companies that meet the corporate inclusion criteria, which requires that the company have been discussed in significant detail by a variety of reliable sources of information that retain functional independence from the company itself. (On Wikipedia, we call this standard "notability".) To demonstrate that the company meets Wikipedia's "notability" threshold, high-quality coverage in newspapers and other such sources is desirable, but not a mere listing in a corporate database or a link to the company's own website. Put another way, Wikipedia requires proof that the company has been found to be noteworthy by independent sources, not just that the company exists. The draft doesn't include any of the desirable sources, and a quick search online doesn't reveal much of substance. Without these sources, I'm afraid the draft stands no chance of acceptance.

The draft in question is User:Corecomuk/sandbox. There is no need to copy the entire submission into your question. It was declined because it lacked reliable sources and notability. JTP (talkcontribs) 13:44, 20 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
The quality of the English is also poor. If English is not your first language, have you considered contributing to the Wikipedia in your first language? There are more than 200 Wikipedias in different languages, not only in English. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:34, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
