From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to my study. Before making an article in the name space, I’ll come to re-read the Wikipedia policies.

To get started on Wikipedia, endeavour to read:


YFA

I picked a point that three sources that talks about the article — wholly makes it notable. It states thus:

We generally judge this by asking if there are at least three high-quality sources that a) have substantial discussion of the subject (not just a mention) and b) are written and published independently of the subject (so, a company's website or press releases are not OK).

GNG Criteria.

  • "Reliable" means that sources need editorial integrity to allow verifiable evaluation of notability, per the reliable source guideline. Sources may encompass published works in all forms and media, and in any language. Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability.
  • "Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected. Sources do not have to be available online or written in English. Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability.
  • "Independent of the subject" excludes works produced by the article's subject or someone affiliated with it. For example, advertising, press releases, autobiographies, and the subject's website are not considered independent.


For RS

WP:SCHOLARSHIP & WP:NEWSORG — these two are the pillars to me.

For Biographies Read

WP:YOURSELF

Citing

WP:CS:EMBED, embedding links rather than using the <ref> tag is an offense!

AFC

According to here the AFC states that:

We do not judge an editor who does not want to register, and AfC is a process by which their contributions can become Wikipedia articles. AfC is also the only accepted way for an editor with a conflict of interest to write articles about subjects they are associated with, or paid to write. AfC works as a peer review process, where autoconfirmed users either accept and create an article submitted by an anonymous editor or decline the article because it is unsuitable for Wikipedia.
