Hello,

I've made the necessary changes in the article AlignMeter so that it now has a lead section. What else needs to be done for it to be accepted?

Hello,

In the creation of this page, I was notified that the sources are not "independent, reliable, published", but in fact they are all well-known, independent and reliable: www.photonics.com www.laserfocusworld.com thewindherald.com marketresearchperiodical.com www.industrynewsdaily.us

Please advise. Thank you

It was declined because it reads like an advertisement. Theroadislong (talk) 08:04, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

i am wondering why Quick Tv Africa was deleted. Its one of Africa's fastest growing media house and the only one promoting Africa's art and culture globally I want that article restored

Hi Mcvicworld. The most recent version of the article wasn't deleted, it was moved from article space to Draft:Quick Tv Africa because it cites no reliable, independent sources. That's the same reason an earlier version of the article was deleted, see the linked discussion. None of the reasons you've given above ("fastest growing", "only one", and you "want that article restored") are reasons for Wikipedia to have an encyclopedia article on the subject.
You wrote "Victor Vote" on your user page. If you were trying to communicate that you are the founder of Quick Tv Africa, then you have a conflict of interest when writing about the topic, and should plainly declare that on your user page. Editing with a conflict of interest is a supremely bad idea, and is strongly discouraged. See WP:BFAQ#COMPANY for more information. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:26, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

hullo reviewers,

i have been asked by some colleagues to improve this page draft which was declined earlier. i am not entirely comfortable doing so, since i am partially involved with the company itself and am clearly COI-ed, but the person who would be best suited to do so has recently left their position at the institution which understands the sorts of things we work with (and i would not want anyone on the staff of the company itself editing a text about their employer). i did fix some things that were clearly a bit less wikipedialike in style, added some further references, and clarified that some of the references indeed are third-party references and indepedent (which was not entirely obvious). i would rather not work more on the text without some guidance.

it appears the draft was declined by a wikipedian who now has been permanently blocked from editing, and thus i cannot easily ask them to peek at the page again. does the queue move forward even without the original reviewer? Jussi Karlgren (talk) 16:48, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jussi Karlgren (talk) 16:48, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Jussi Karlgren: The draft is in the pool to be reviewed, and someone will get to it eventually. Often each reviewing cycle is performed by a different editor. That gives submitters the benefit of input from people who may have different strengths. --Worldbruce (talk) 18:02, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I was asked to create a page for Ollie Kendall as a duo with Josh Carrott, however they already have one called Jolly and Josh Carrot also has one which is info on about him. As there is not much info about Ollie in wikipedia apart from a little mention from Josh Carrott's page. Is there any way I can try to create a page about info for Ollie Kendall?

Asfabutt2001 (talk) 17:03, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Asfabutt2001: Who asked you to create a page for Ollie Kendall? Editors should not act at the behest of someone else without disclosing the connection. --Worldbruce (talk) 17:52, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
