== Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/List of films shot at the British Museum == |
|||
Hello, |
|||
I was a little surprised to see that you declined the request at [[Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/List of films shot at the British Museum]]. I am not aware of any policy that says "we only have articles with a list of sources" - in fact, we have loads of articles which list no sources at all. The test is whether the information in an article is verifiable, not whether it lists its sources. Whether a given film was shot at the British Museum is certainly verifiable. If this article already existed, it wouldn't be deleted as being unverifiable; so why shouldn't it be created? Regards, [[User:The Land|The Land]] ([[User talk:The Land|talk]]) 10:08, 23 December 2010 (UTC) |

Shortcut on wp:inline citationFYI-the shortcut you added didn't go to the pg, it went to the WikiProject instead, so I removed it. --Funandtrvl (talk) 18:10, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
I have partially undone your decline, because I am of the opinion that declines with the reason "hold reason unaddressed" or similar are inherently unhelpful to the submitter, who is not likely to know to look through the history to see the hold reason. In my opinion, the 24-hour period of grace is a guideline for reviewers more than for submitters, and should not be the primary reason something is declined. (By that I mean that if the hold reason is sufficiently trivial, like "format bare references using {{cite web}}", then it should just be fixed.) If you disagree, or I'm acting against project consensus, do let me know. Cheers. sonia♫ 05:29, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Help with dashesHi there, I thought I'd take you up on your offer for help you noted on my talk page. I'm trying to create several new articles for Phoenix Suns seasons. I can see there is a sort of double dash used in anarticle that already exists, such as here. I found the "mbsp;" markup may be the key. I've already created several seasons' pages, such as this one and would like to get this corrected before the pages are possibly deleted. Any help would be much appreciated!Zepppep34 (talk) 08:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi. Please add the promised sources as soon as possible to avoid AfD. This is a brand new start up band and the article (whether the band is notable or not) currently clearly fails at WP:BAND. Thanks. --Kudpung (talk) 03:09, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Communications Interop ArticleThanks for telling me how to move my new article to mainspace. I named it Communications Interoperability and Mutualink. I think I followed all of the steps properly but I cannot find the article. I would like to obtain feedback on it as well have colleagues be able to view it for accuracy and content. Where can I find it and how can I get feedback. Telecom881 (talk) 12:59, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Gangstar: Miami VindicationHello Gfoley4. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Gangstar: Miami Vindication, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: A7 does not apply to software. Thank you. -- PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 23:56, 18 December 2010 (UTC) Help with an article
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs_(online_personality) The words (online personality) in the title of the article should be removed and it should just have as the title, Jon Jacobs, since it seems from the text of the article since this article is based on a real life person, an English filmmker and businessman, seen here in this New York Times link: http://movies.nytimes.com/person/190840/Jon-Jacobs The "online personality" is a person by the name of Jon Jacobs as can be read about in this BBC article, this is a real person, not an online personality: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-11795098 Thanks!98.151.53.27 (talk) 07:55, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
VestexHello, You declined my article titled Vestex and wrote "I'm sorry, but your article appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. If you still feel that this subject is appropriate for Wikipedia, please rewrite your proposed article in the form of an encyclopedia entry. Encyclopedia entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of published, verifiable sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the item being discussed." I would like to resubmit but I'm confused because in my reference section I list over 30 publications that are verifiable sources that were not written by the Vestex company. These articles are published in scientific journals and have nothing to do with the company. What other verifiable sources do you need? The use of Nanotechnology as part of an infection control approach is important and I would like to publish an entry on this so I would appreciate any suggestions you have. Thank you S2kelam (talk) 14:07, 21 December 2010 (UTC)
Help with two Wikipedia articles!
Could you change this article's title to this: Jon Jacobs (writer): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs Instead of just Jon Jacobs, please the word (writer) to the article name. The reason for this is this Jon Jacobs is best known as being a writer that there is another Jon Jacobs listed on Wikipedia as: Jon Jacobs (actor) or Jon Jacobs (online personality) but neither actor or online personality fits since this Jon Jacobs is more of a jack of all trades and not really just an actor or musician or an owner of an online personality or businessman or film director, this person has MUCH more sources that the writer Jon Jacobs listed above and is more notable: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs_(online_personality) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs_(actor) So the word (actor) in their aritlce title doesn't really do this Jon Jacobs justice or is very descriptive. It makes more sense for this Jon Jacobs' article to be called: Jon Jacobs (writer) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs And it seems more fitting for THIS other Jon Jacobs just to have an article title that is simply: Jon Jacobs Since this other Jon Jacobs is much rounded and know for different things than just being a writer or just an actor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs_(online_personality) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Jacobs_(actor) Thaanks, sorry for any confusion!12.196.37.227 (talk) 16:54, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Huntington RailroadSo my article on the former Huntington Railroad isn't a stub after all. Cool. I must've done something right, but I can't think of what. I had a harder time making this one than I did with the Ocean Electric Railway. Sadly, I'm concerned that I may have to rename both articles someday. ----DanTD (talk) 00:54, 23 December 2010 (UTC) Note on vandalism warningsYou should not warn established users, or good faith reverts for that matter.
