00:39:15, 21 May 2019 review of draft by Isaac Omar

Isaac Omar (talk) 00:39, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am having issues with your editors or reviewers regarding my posts. So, what do I need to include in my post if I am writing about the subject maters that I know. such as the place I born at, about the city where I grow up. The places I visited. What reference do I need if there is not that many written material available about the area that I am writing about?

@Isaac Omar: - so personal knowledge isn't suitable for any Wikipedia article (not only could you not verify my personal knowledge, editors reading the article wouldn't be able to check whether statements were justified).
My suggestion to find some sources is to look at the other articles on the administrative zones ([see here]). Lots of the sources in them look like they might also contain content on the Dawa zone, and other sources will have counterparts for the Dawa zone (e.g. instead of the Afder zone census figures, you'd use the Dawa zone's figures).
The draft doesn't need to be as long as these ones, but some additional content probably would be worthwhile - I imagine you'll come across it while looking at the sources.
Hope that helps - this draft would be filling in a gap so looks promising Nosebagbear (talk) 10:23, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Moses devoss

i have several times submitted moses devoss page, but all in vein. i have tried to follow instructions but still nothing comes out, the subject doesnot have enough reliable sources. Mn films (talk) 01:30, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Mn films: - the subject just doesn't appear to have enough suitable sourcing at the moment - not everything warrants a Wikipedia article. For Moses' primary areas (filmography and his songs), the works themselves would need to be notable, and I don't believe that they are Nosebagbear (talk) 10:28, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This help desk is my only option to publish the article for review. Anyways, websites that are referred are reliable. The biography stated on this draft page is legitimate as there are sources for that which includes the Crime That Changed Serbia documentary film. There aren't much sources on websites but are plenty in videos like YouTube. TravisGTAGamer (talk) 08:39, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to edit my first attempt at a Wikipedia page. What would you advise me to do to ensure that what I write or what I present is more relevent?

Thank you again,

Ian

My declaration of conflict of interest appears on my Draft: Paul Vinelli, but it does not state what article I am declaring the COI on. How do I add the specific article Paul Vinelli to the COI declaration? The conflict is that he is my father.

GVTeg (talk) 12:14, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@GVTeg: - hi there. That COI box would go on your userpage, but I've put one on the draft's talk page which will work in its stead. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:36, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Wikipedia Mgbo120 approvedRonmun (talk) 20:50, 21 May 2019 (UTC) “The ROADEX Project” for publication on 19 January 2019 and I have been intending to improve and update the page with new developments and diagrams where possible since then. As part of this I have periodically revisited the page to see anyone has offered contributions. On my last visit (today) I see that the page was moved to Draft on 4 May. This has puzzled me as I am not regular contributor to Wikipedia, more like a well-meaning novice. Can you let me know if something has happened in Wikipedia that has resulted in the page being downgraded to Draft, or is it just a case of someone else having a different view to Mgbo120? Any information that you can give will be gratefully received. With best regards Ron.[reply]

Ronmun (talk) 20:50, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ronmun. Mgbo120 was caught doing things they shouldn't, they were blocked indefinitely, and some of their actions were reverted. You may resubmit Draft:The Roadex Project when you are ready. --Worldbruce (talk) 21:47, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

21:06:25, 21 May 2019 review of submission by 82.187.36.133

edit


An article on Oye Gureje, an academic, was declined on the basis of not sufficient evidence of notability was provided. We now want to resubmit and include an important piece of information that was omitted: listing among the 1% most highly cited researchers in his field in the Web of Science. Given that some of his colleagues who are listed in Wikipedia and who are highly cited do not have this information in the articles on them, it is unclear whether this information is to be included in the article on him or whether there is another way of bringing this to the attention of the editors. This lack of clarity was the reason that information was not provided with the initial submission.

Please advise.

Including the information would help the draft. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:12, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It was also written by User:Oye Gureje, BTW. Bkissin (talk) 18:52, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
