Added additional information to show why this person has done enough for Africa to justify a Wikipedia page in his name. He may not be covered in European or American media, but he has done a lot for Africa. There are a lot of non-tricial mentions included from multiple independent sources and news sites.

These are my first steps on the English WP. From the German WP, I have created a draft translation about the global network Ecovis International. Could you please tell me, whether the draft needs any improvement? I would also like to know the proper steps for publishing the draft and how to link it to the original German article. Thanks, Krassissimus (talk) 08:43, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The poster moved the draft to article space. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:19, 19 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you decline the submission, is it because there's not much info?

EPICGAMER890 (talk) 09:02, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@EPICGAMER890: - this was rejected because there wasn't sufficient secondary source coverage that was both reliable and independent. It was rejected rather than declined because the reviewer felt that you wouldn't be able to find enough (not just not enough atm).
For future note, the blue words in the red boxes are links to pages that will explain the words used in the reasoning. Nosebagbear (talk) 10:44, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

My article Draft:Urbantz was denied due to not notable and against WP policy I think that the subject is relevant and notable. I also tried to write the article in the most impartial way I could resorting to viable sources, I might have failed in some points, it seems.

What advice could I get to rewrite the article?

Thank you.

Tproveau (talk) 14:15, 17 July 2019 (UTC) I got this message: Tproveau I have tagged your draft as a copyright infringement, it has been copied and pasted from https://www.vsc-library.org/guidelines/ and https://www.vsc-library.org/about/ Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously. Theroadislong (talk) 12:27, 12 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am working with a group at WHO to establish the wikipage; it's not a copyright violation as I have their approval.

Approval needs to be a *lot* more formal since by definition anything on Wikipedia can be reused pretty much anywhere, please see WP:PERMISSION for the procedures.Naraht (talk) 15:27, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I'm not understanding why PMG isn't a notable topic. We have been on notable websites that I've linked in my description and are part of a growing business area in the low-code platform space. We are equals to similar sites such as Appian. We can add more links to relevant research reports to justify PMG's request for a posting if need be. We have been included in multiple publications stating that we're the top players in the low-code and service catalog industries. Please let me know how I can help!

Best, Sharon

First of all, I don't appreciate the rude tone of the comment left by the reviewer DGG on my page. I'm very familiar with what wikipedia is and how it works so their comment were completely unnecessary. I've provided ample verifiable and independent references for this subject and all of them are NOT just press as the reviewer mentioned. If someone can provide some actual assistance as to how I can improve this article and get it up to the standard to be moved to the live space instead of leaving potentially biased and condescending comments on my talk page, that would be greatly appreciated.

Kc1985 (talk) 15:45, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The topic does not appear to be notable. Interviews, IMDb and photographs of magazine covers are not suitable sources for establishing notability. Theroadislong (talk) 15:57, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

help please, I forgot to add one reference

It looks like you forgot to add any references, and still haven't. Novice editors are commonly advised to cite at least three independent, reliable, secondary sources containing significant coverage of the topic. You're more likely to find suitable sources if you wait until the game has been released. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:58, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Viocox24 (talk) 18:18, 17 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Viocox24. You also asked about this draft on the reviewer's talk page. That is the best place to start. They may say something that you hadn’t considered, or at least give a more detailed explanation that may prove useful. If, after discussing it with them, you think the reviewer was mistaken, then you may get a second opinion by resubmitting the draft. To do so, add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the draft. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:49, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wikipedia editors, I believe AwardWallet deserves to have a wiki page, just read about it and you will see that this is a flagship (pioneer) product in the space of miles and points. I know I am biased, but no one knows the history of the service as well as I do. How can I get outside help to help to get this article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:AwardWallet) published?

@Alexiveresch: See WP:BFAQ#COMPANY. --Worldbruce (talk) 02:41, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
