Ways to improve David Allan-Petale

Hello, Lazzylazza,

Thank you for creating David Allan-Petale.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The article is unbalanced, being mainly about one work, not about the writer. Where is there substantial coverage of the writer in reliable independent sources? (see WP:RS).

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Paul W}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Cindy Solonec moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Cindy Solonec, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Paul W (talk) 11:45, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. How is this different from the other article i created which was not moved to draft? Any help very welcomed. Larry Lazzylazza (talk) 05:47, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Both articles should ideally be incubated further in draftspace, but I couldn't move David Allan-Petale as there is already an article called Draft:David Allan-Petale (their content should be merged, with one draft then developed and the other discontinued and deleted).

Writer biographies should be based on substantial coverage in reliable independent sources (not fleeting mentions, and not material largely sourced from PR/marketing, etc, by the author's publisher), and should ideally give some information about the author (birthplace, family, education, career, other works, etc); book reviews and author profiles may help in this respect. See also WP:AUTHOR for guidance on author notability. Paul W (talk) 14:35, 7 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Cindy Solonec (July 23)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Innisfree987 was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please see WP:NPERSON for more information on how a person qualifies for a Wikipedia article. If significant secondary coverage is available, please add it and resubmit. Thank you and happy editing!

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Cindy Solonec and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

A lengthy welcome

Hi Lazzylazza. Welcome to Wikipedia. I've added a welcome message to the top of this page that gives a great deal of information about Wikipedia. I hope you find it useful.

Additionally, I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily in collaboration.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose of Wikipedia and the neutrality required in articles.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

If you work from reliable, independent sources, you shouldn't go far wrong. WP:RSP and WP:RSN are helpful in determining if a source is reliable.

If you find yourself in a disagreement with another editor, it's best to discuss the matter on the relevant talk page.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Hipal (talk) 01:50, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Cindy Solonec

Hello, Lazzylazza. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Cindy Solonec".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
