Declined Draft
Hello @Sulfurboy:, you’ve declined a draft named ‘Yahşi Baraz’. The reason was that it sounded like an advertisement and the point of view wasn’t neutral. I took a quick look at the draft and didn’t see anything that sounded like an advertisement. Could you explain why you deleted it? Thanks, Rodrigo Valequez (talk) 08:41, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
Hello @sulfurboy you declined a draft named Jeff J Hunter because it wasn't notable, may I ask why you felt that way? The biography has articles written by staff writers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Visualreverb (talk • contribs) 11:56, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

Sulfurboy (talk) 07:19, 23 February 2020 (UTC)Sprave Repeating Bow
Yo, can we talk about this one?
https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Sprave_Repeating_Bow
It seems to have been declined due to a lack of sources confirming its existence or a lack of significance. I would challenge that either Wikipedia's ruleset is poorly written if direct sources are not sufficient, or that you must not be familiar with archery if this is not considered a significant invention.
Would you argue an article on the Repeating Bow should not exist? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ImpetuousTerk (talk • contribs) 07:09, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

requesting review of article
Dear Sulfurboy,
I submitted an article on a study centre at the University of Cambridge (England). I am requesting your review. I had submitted an article on a smaller organization a couple of weeks ago simply to "practice" for other articles. It was unfortunately rejected, but perhaps I was setting my sights to low! I am a historian by profession and enjoy writing little pieces here and there when I come across something I know a little about that is not found on wiki. I think this is the link you are looking for: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User_talk:Leo_Dei_III. If not, the article is simply titled Cambridge Centre for Christianity Worldwide under my user name.
Thank for your consideration,

Request on 18:23:05, 23 February 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Eleduc60
Thank you.
I would appreciate more specific assistance in how I can get this article published...or even if it is possible. I have revised it with assistance many times from its original and am not sure how to proceed now. I am uncertain as to what you mean by "advertisement". I thought most of the sources (references) I gave were independent and reliable. Do you not consider published news articles and government publications independent and reliable in this context?
Thanks for your help.

Maryna Tkachuk article
Just a quick note for you. I'd kindly ask you to stop vandalising the article with the absurd edits/deleted, especially since you were the one to approve the draft in the first place. You genuinely seem to have no idea what you are doing. What you claim to be "absurd fluff language" is a Ukrainian title the person in question bears and which is mentioned in every official context. What you claim to be "unsourced information" either comes from philosophical vocabulary or the NaUKMA website which allowed to use this information in Wikipedia. When the information is used a direct copy then it is marked "advertisement", when I try to produce a quality rewrite it is renamed into "unsourced information". I also don't understand this proactivity while you personally have no knowledge of the subject or the language the most sources on the subject are. Why are you disrupting work in process and removing activities without a link while I'm actually in the process of adding them? Why am I under such pressure to add them like this is the most important article in the world? This was only recently undeleted, just come back and look at it in a week or so. Seriously. Or are you just doing this to feel self-importance? Flchans (talk) 15:50, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- Flchans, You added a lot of unsourced information after it was approved. The article in the state I just found it would never have been approved. I would advise you to review the policies of WP:BLP. All information in an article about a BLP must be supported with inline citations. Sulfurboy (talk) 15:55, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
Instead of talking with a wall and wasting even more nerves trying to convince people who have no idea what they are doing but somehow assume they know better, I simply reverted this to rev 22:18, 23 February 2020 by Dreamy Jazz. Basically same thing you approved. If they like it, if you like it, then I couldn't care less trying to improve it further. If you want more links or cites or anything, please go ahead and be my guest. You obviously have more knowledge about this. Anyway, I'm done with it. Flchans (talk) 16:08, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
What amuses me the most is that the presented article is literally almost a copy of what existed for over a year on Ukrainian Wikipedia. Not a single editor or administrator ever challenged the significance, notability or validity of that information, because most of that is information cited and available in sources in language editors here simply don't know; and other information is literally common knowledge that is available from Google even. Why do you guys claim to know more about this than your Ukrainian colleagues? While Wikipedia is no bureaucracy and rules aren't firm and should be ignored if they are in the way of the greater good I consistently face the examples of exactly the opposite mindset throughout my experience with English Wikipedia. Flchans (talk) 16:31, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
DeMarcus Covington
May I ask what is wrong with my sources for the DeMarcus Covington page? Because I only state facts not a single opinion is on the page because I just say what Teams he has coached and that he has a kid Bigmike2346 (talk) 17:32, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Request on 18:37:24, 24 February 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Ilanabel
Hi there! Trying to get my first article published and wondering if you can go into any more depth with your feedback?
Your feedback 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 organizations and companies). 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."
But the subject has been written about in CBC (super reputable), Narcity and MobileSyrup -- and it's more than a passing mention.
Let me know so that I can edit properly.
Thanks so much! Ilana
Ilanabel (talk) 18:37, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- Ilanabel, I don't see the CBC nor the Narcity references. I don't know what MobileSyrup is, but it wouldn't be considered a reliable source. Even if it was, the article is just part of WP:ROUTINE coverage and is likely a press release. Sulfurboy (talk) 18:41, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- Sulfurboy Ok - appreciate the feedback. Though wondering where you are located? MobileSyrup is well known in Canada. Shruti Shekar, who wrote the piece, has also been a telecom reporter at The Hill Times and she is now with Yahoo Finance.
Ilanabel (talk) 18:37, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- This is moot. Whether the source is fully reliable or not, the problem still remains also that the coverage in the article is just WP:ROUTINE

Request on 19:05:38, 24 February 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Rio65trio
Hello Sulfurboy,
you declined a draft I submitted named Blitz Club. You referred to Wikipedia:ARTSPAM (submission appears to read more like an advertisement) and Wikipedia:Reliable sources (independent, reliable, published sources).
In the draft, I used reliable third party sources such as articles in news papers, news magazines and specialist magazines, all of which are independent of the subject. Before the submission I also spent a lot of effort to improve the tone and neutral point of view of the article by removing questionable phrases.
I would appreciate it very much if you could help me with a little more specific information about where you identified non-neutral content, so that I can improve it accordingly.
Thanks, Rio65trio (talk) 19:05, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
- Rio65trio, Upon re-reviewing this, I'm okay with it. There's some questionable things (particularly the overly detailed descriptions of the venue), but I'll et the eventual reviewer of the mainspace article decide whether or not anything needs to be done. Sulfurboy (talk) 19:21, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi Sulfurboy,
I saw a new message you left on the page Draft:Toppr "Looks like the page creator created and alt account and attempted to move this page into the mainspace. It should no longer be assumed that the page creator is acting in good faith."
I am not sure about this. Can you explain little bit more on this? I have not created any alt account. Please help me out here. Sonu92112612 (talk) 19:03, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
- Sorry, but I simply don't believe you. I don't believe that someone randomly created an account just to move one obscure draft page into the mainspace. I've never seen that happen in thousands of articles of reviewed. However, what I have seen is someone who gets frustrated with the AfC process and then decides to just move the page to mainspace or create another account to do so. I would recommend focusing on the links previously provided to you on how to improve your article as it is nowhere near ready for mainspace (if it will ever be). Sulfurboy (talk) 19:06, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
Sulfurboy, Okay. I respect your decision to not believing me. But I am not at all frustrated. I completely understand this will take a lot of time, and I will improve my article, will really appreciate if you can guide me on points where I have to improve more.

Request on 08:39:19, 27 February 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Klara29
Hi, I'm writing to you because I'm getting really frustrated. This draft was declined for the third time and sorry, I don't get it. Other institutes of the Leibniz Association also have an article in Wikipedia. These institutes are
completely comparable to the GWZO, see e.g. https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Leibniz_Institute_for_the_German_Language, https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Institute_of_Contemporary_History_(Munich), https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Centre_for_Contemporary_History
Actually, I just translated this draft, this article already exists in the German Wikipedia. For years. See here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leibniz-Institut_für_Geschichte_und_Kultur_des_östlichen_Europa So why is this subject suitable for the German Version but not for the English one? There are, of course, published, reliable and secondary sources about the subject, but to be honest, not in English, but in German or some Eastern European languages. Therefore I decided not to use them. See here e.g. https://detektor.fm/serien/forschungsquartett-wissenschaft, https://www.lvz.de/Leipzig/Bildung/Geisteswissenschaftliches-Zentrum-in-Leipzig-wird-Leibniz-Institut, https://www.bmbf.de/de/geistes-und-sozialwissenschaften-152.html, https://www.l-iz.de/kultur/ausstellungen/2020/01/Studierende-der-Kunstgeschichte-zeigen-in-der-Alten-Nikolaischule-was-aus-Leipzigs-Stadtbild-alles-verschwunden-ist-312850 … So should I use these sources in the draft? I would be so grateful for a little help. Klara29 (talk) 08:39, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
- Klara29, What other articles do or don't exist doesn't matter. WP:INN The guideline you need to pass (as already explained on the draft page) is WP:GNG. This draft currently does not do so. And there's no restriction on the language of the sources you use. What matters is having secondary sources that show significant coverage of the subject that is not either WP:ROUTINE or WP:LOCAL Sulfurboy (talk) 14:14, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
Please advise on rejected draft
Hello! Thanks for reviewing my draft article on Alpine Quantum Technologies (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Alpine_Quantum_Technologies). I would like to improve the article and was hoping you could let me know what parts of the article you consider subideal and expect to be addressed to make the article suitable for publication. In particular, I would like to inquire what part of the article you consider not neutral. Further, I am wondering if it is the nature of the sources that trouble you. Among the references are Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and Neue Züricher Zeitung, two major European newspapers, and Der Standard, a major newspaper in Austria, which I thought would meet both the verifiability and notability criteria.

- JohKof, There's no issue with the sources. The problem is lines like "Several of the founders’ academic contributions over the last decades are considered major advancements". You want to avoid puffery language like this at all costs. If they have indeed made major advancements, then those will be self-apparent. Sulfurboy (talk) 14:20, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
I want to learn more about the proper wikipedia format and in particular, parts of my submission that are improper.
Hi. Thanks for your comments. If possible, I would like more feedback so that I can learn and make this submission in keeping with the Wikipedia format. I have done a fair amount of reading on Wikipedia, so I understand some basic requirements. My intention is only to provide simple facts about this non-profit, the Mother Earth Project, and its accomplishments and activities. Only that. Perhaps you could give me a few examples in my submission that you are particularly concerned about?
I look forward to your response! Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Barnfamilytrappe (talk • contribs) 15:34, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
- Barnfamilytrappe, You need to link to your article. I would check out WP:MOS if you have questions about formatting. Or you can visit the teahouse which is linked on your talk page. Sulfurboy (talk) 15:37, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
Request for further explanation on what would be a "reliable source"
Dear Sulfarboy
My article on "Maha Al-Saati" has been declined due to "unreliable references", and I would like to know why those articles I used as references are considered unreliable. The link to the post is:
https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Maha_Al-Saati
Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by IndieSaudiFilm (talk • contribs) 15:50, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
- You were provided with the necessary links on the draftpage to learn more about reliable sources. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you didn't read those articles, because if you did it would be readily apparent what sources used are very problematic (eg, instagram, wikipedia, etc.).

Draft:Women's Football at the 2003 South Pacific Games Review
Hello,
Cheers for reviewing my draft (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Women%27s_Football_at_the_2003_South_Pacific_Games).
While I can accept that the subject does not show significant coverage, the additional coverage from the OFC themselves are dead links these days. I'd also point out that the same subject on the men's side has been up for years (and is reliable from what I can tell) with a total lack of sources stated: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Football_at_the_2003_South_Pacific_Games_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_tournament. As this article would then complete all of the articles on the women's football tournaments at the Pacific Games, I felt it was valid of an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ratkiller75 (talk • contribs) 08:06, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
- What WP:OTHER pages exist has no bearing on whether or not your page should exist. You need to show how that particular year was notable enough to deserve its own article separate of the South Pacific Games article. Wikipedia is not just a menagerie of sports results. If there is not significant coverage of that particular year, then you've just answered your own question. Sulfurboy (talk) 14:16, 21 February 2020 (UTC)
Granted, but the issue is not that it wasn't covered, though 2003 wasn't the most prolific year for publishing. The issue is that all the links are dead in the modern day due to website changes.
Modern dead links here: [1] Dead links in the Wayback Machine: [2] Wayback Machine that links to one of the sources quoted: [3] & [4] PNG mentioned as victors as recently as last year: [5] And confirmed in: [6] & [7] Guam mentioned as silver medallists in: [8]
That's just what I can find. If you do not deem that sufficient, then I will accept that judgement, though I think it would be a shame. I can accept that Wikipedia is not here to cater to everyone's whims though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ratkiller75 (talk • contribs) 21:10, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
Re: London Youth Choirs
Dear Sulfurboy,
I politely contest your decision to reject my draft article, as I firmly believe that the subject matter of this article is of sufficient notability to warrant an article. I have included reliable secondary sources from industry recognised organisations such as Rhinegold and the Association of British Choral Directors. The organisation was founded by a highly regarded member of the industry and has patronage from internationally renowned musicians. The organisation appears regularly on national radio and television and appears at internationally renowned concert venues (as is referenced within the article - with references from independent organisations such as the BBC and the London Philharmonic Orchestra). I have ensured that this article is neutral in its composition with several independent references. I would also appreciate it if the article could be reviewed by an expert in the field - I personally don’t see how a member of the Wikipedia community with no expertise in the specific field can accurately judge the suitability of an article.
I appreciate your continued support and work to ensure Wikipedia is the best it can be,
Yours,

Hey,so as my first article I decided to write abput a local track athlete that is "rising" in the sport. My husband had suggested him as he used to be his soccer coach. Anyways, the article like is Draft:Gregoire_Marsot and you reviewed it stating that it was not notable enough. Care to explain why? I read the requirements, and sure the subject doesn't have a boston globe or NY times article (Theyll have one soon in fact), but they have entries on them by reputable sources for the sport. For example, any athlete from massachusetts would know Bay State Running and their interviews. Anyways, I was hoping maybe you could re-review it or even just give me some tips, I'm new to this:) Thanks Shopweston (talk) 03:58, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Shopweston, That subject has zero chance of passing any notability standards at this time. Sorry. Sulfurboy (talk) 04:02, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
Sorry if i'm being repetitive but care to explain why? I did some reading on it, and sure, the person doesn't have millions of followers or has qualified for the Olympics but they have potential and the fact that the boston globe suggested an interview means that they are notable to some extent. In the track world he is very well known, and It's hard to show this in an article that's why I show the facts and times, and qualifications (as well as an interview now), which are meant to show notability. Im simply confused. Thanks:) Also how do i get it to be reviewed again? I feel bad wasting your time... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shopweston (talk • contribs) 04:11, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
- Because the subject fully fails WP:GNG and WP:NTRACK. None of the things you've pointed out will make a difference. The article has been outright rejected which means it will not be reviewed again. Again, the subject is not notable at this time and has zero chance of passing the requisite standards. Sulfurboy (talk) 04:17, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
uhhhh ok. Thanks for your kind words, slightly passive aggressive but thanks for everything:) Shopweston (talk) 04:23, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Need Your Help For an Artist Page
Hi Sulfurboy, I added an artist page below and it declined after your review.
https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Cem_Bayoğlu
I am not so experienced user here so i checked necessary things for "Creative professionals" like Authors, editors, journalists, filmmakers, photographers, artists, architects and i found the requirements below;
- The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.
- The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique.
- The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the primary subject of an independent and notable work (for example, a book, film, or television series, but usually not a single episode of a television series) or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.
- The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.
So, i added a paragraph with references of his unique works to the page again. (His other works and international exhibitions were already in that page)
I would be grateful if you can review again and correct If there is any wrong or missing information attempt.
Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cerrenfly (talk • contribs) 14:39, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Request on 17:31:06, 28 February 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Ronaldo1948
- Ronaldo1948 (talk · contribs)
Thanks for your review.
Advice please....as it is the References section you have issue with rather than the subject matter can I ask what you are looking for?
I need to understand Notability as you see it, as we are looking here at an English band that was a spin-off from probably the most famous folk-rock band in music history, Fairport Convention. Googling Matthews Southern Comfort and their UK #1 Woodstock brings up masses of coverage...are you looking for things like Billboard or Rolling Stone from a US perspective or in the UK the two main music papers Melody Maker and New Musical Express? Is an article about MSC in the major UK newspaper The Guardian acceptable? Are online music sites like allmusic.com or seventiesmusic.com acceptable?
Finally will you be the re-reviewer or will I have to wait months again if I correct the issue you have?
Thanks in anticipation of your help in resolving this Notability thing.

Requesting further clarification regarding rejection
Hello,
I see that my submission was rejected for the same reason it was previously rejected. Specifically: "The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes." I was previously told the listed awards and fellowships were not properly cited. I corrected that issue and resubmitted the revised page. Will you please help me understand exactly where the additional citations are required or what I am missing regarding inline citation? Your help is very much appreciated.

Review Draft for Scott Fedor
Hi! Thank you a million for all the help you've been giving me with this draft Scott Fodor. Specifically thank you for clarifying that I needed to remove the NPR and USNews sources and use a better secondary source. I have now added a citation of a nationally published book by Kevin Kilgore that covers Scott Fedor's story. The book has an ISBN and is nationally available on Google Books, Amazon, B & N, Books-a-Million and IndieBound. I hope that will fulfill the need for another national source? Citation 5 from Global Forum and citation 9 from Lehigh are also national publications. What's my next step? Do I need to hit something other than the "publish" button? Do I need to resubmit somehow? Thank you so much again for all of your excellent help! Laurie

Clarification on "Oneevent at best"
Hi, you recently reviewed an article, declined it, saying "This is WP:ONEEVENT at best."
Please forgive me up front for being a new author and asking newbie questions. Are you saying there is a "oneevent" category or way to have the article approved as a "oneevent?" How would I do this? Any further clarification is appreciated.

Article on Peter Doell, second draft
Hi Sulfurboy,
Thanks a lot for taking the time to review my submission and providing feedback. It helped a lot. I've added more sources to support the fact that Peter Doell is a notable mastering engineer.
I would like to comment on the references I used, since the debatable question is not whether or not the subject is notable but rather if I have provided enough published, reliable, secondary and independent sources:
• Billboard Magazines' "Audio/Studio Track": this section's goal is to indicate which artists are producing at which locations and who the engineers and producers are. Thus, the whole section is comprised of passing mentions. The relevance of this source is that Billboard is probably the most recognized magazine in the music business and the fact that it provides evidence for notable highlights of Doell's career. • AllMusic: lists Doell's credits. This source is recognized by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (NARAS). • Music Connection and Mix Online: these are respected trade publications. The articles cited are not just passing mentions. One is, in fact, entirely dedicated to covering Doell. • Pasadena Star News: local newspaper. Dedicates a paragraph to Doell. • The Last Miles, Interview: author George Cole interviews Peter Doell who recorded Miles Davis' album "Tutu". The book "The Last Miles" covers Davis' last decade. • Prince: Life and Times: book that covers Prince's career. Recalls anecdote of Doell when he engineered Prince's "1999" album. • Bobby Owsinski: one of the most published authors in the music industry includes Doell in two episodes of his podcast.
I hope I have proved the need for Wikipedia to include this article.

Further, it is highly discouraged for a company to write about itself. If your company is in fact notable, someone will write about it eventually.
