I'm just wondering why my Quadeca submission was deleted. Maybe it's because he's not notable enough?

@Brandnewflipflops: it was declined (not deleted - it's still there) for not meeting musician notability - it needs to meet 1 or more of these criteria
As it's a biography of a living individual, it needs to have inline references, which support specific statements (the little blue numbers). Referencing for Beginners can help with that. Nosebagbear (talk) 08:52, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bolaleh: Wikipedia does not publish personal articles. To have an article, a person must be shown to meet Wikipedia's notability criteria by having multiple in-depth sources. The article is not going to be accepted unless it has such sources, regardless of the writing quality. Please also make sure to disclose any conflict of interest. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 09:07, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi can you help me with publishing ?) Bynewsbyyou (talk) 10:59, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bynewsbyyou: - I can, but at the moment this won't be accepted to be an article. Biographies require several sources that are:in-depth, reliable, independent and are secondary (newspapers, books etc). Currently you only have 1 source and it's to another wikipedia article. Wikipedia can't source to itself (because we aren't reliable and we can end up with circular sourcing). Nosebagbear (talk) 11:35, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) An article needs multiple in-depth sources to be published. This looks like a person's profile page and it is highly unlikely that compatible sources exist to have an article. Without sources, we cannot publish the article, especially when it comes to biographies. —  HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 11:38, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, in the past few weeks, I’ve edited the draft of Aleph Farms based on the comments I saw. I want to avoid unnecessary waiting which in the end the draft will not be approved. Can somebody please may look over the draft and see what I need to change to assure acceptation? Also, is there any way to get the draft review quickly?

עידו כ.ש. (talk) 11:46, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@עידו כ.ש.: - I had just been going to give some advice, but the topic's interesting so I thought I'd review it.
I'm currently holding it at pending while I ask if you either work for Aleph or were hired by them to make the page. If so, it doesn't have to stop the draft being reviewed, but you need to add {{paid|employer=Aleph Farms|article=Aleph Farms}} to your en-wiki userpage very rapidly.

Second request. General guidelines are not helping give better information. Please let me know what I can do to get this published. I have seen many pages with less information and backlinking on Wiki before. Not sure what else to do.

@Frakes928: - less backlinking is good! Backlinking isn't permitted outside an "external links" section. You need to use references - see Referencing for beginners Nosebagbear (talk) 20:45, 19 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
