Your Sandbox

Do not submit until references are embedded in the text that support all facts. David notMD (talk) 12:44, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See Help:Referencing for beginners to understand that refs need to be embedded in the text following the facts that the references support. References can be used multiple times if there are different places in the text supported by the same refs. That requires naming refs. David notMD (talk) 12:11, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest

If you have a personal or paid connection to WIS, see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for how to declare that on your User page and/or your Talk page. David notMD (talk) 12:21, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

I am here to help you navigate Wikipedia as part of the Mentor program. Please feel free to ask questions on my Talk page.

Here, or at editor and article Talk pages, remember to 'sign' your comments by typing four of ~ at the end.

Format for comments is to start with one more : than the previous comment. The : does not appear, but it indents the comment.

See Wikipedia:User pages for how to create your user page (what can and cannot be put there). A User page is not mandatory, but having any content there, even "Hello", will make your User name appear in blue rather than red. David notMD (talk) 17:42, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

References

References need to be inserted into the text, following the facts being supported. The software automatically creates superscripted numbers and shows the refs under References. David notMD (talk) 09:23, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft...

...will at best be declined, possibly Speedy deleted under G11 (see Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion). The wording is highly promotional: "Despite a short history, WIS has achieved remarkable results, both in the academic and sports arenas. WIS students have entered prestigious top-tier universities such as Yale, Manchester and Melbourne. In sports, our school teams have also attained impressive wins at district and state levels. This encouraging achievements not only reflect the hard work and determination of our students but also the dedication and investments of all WIS educators, be they teachers, boarding house parents, or administrators."

Also, all content needs to be verified by references that are inserted in the text. See any other school or college article as examples. Fix this while waiting for it to be reviewed (which may be days, weeks, months - the backlog is not a queue). David notMD (talk) 06:42, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Westlake International School (April 25)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Westlake International School and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Westlake International School, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Westlake International School

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Westlake International School, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. – robertsky (talk) 20:18, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

April 2022

Your account has been indefinitely blocked from editing because of the following problems: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, and your username indicates that the account represents a business, organisation, group, or web site, which is against the username policy.

You may request a change of username and unblock if you intend to make useful contributions instead of promoting your business or organization. To do this, first search Special:CentralAuth for available usernames that comply with the username policy. Once you have found an acceptable username, post the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with your new username and replace the text "Your reason here" with your reasons to be unblocked. In your reasons, you must:

Disclose any compensation you may receive for your contributions in accordance with the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure requirement.
Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

Appeals: If, after reviewing the guide to appealing blocks, you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal it by adding the text {{unblock|Your reason here}} at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your reason here" with the reasons you believe the block was an error, and publish the page. Bbb23 (talk) 21:05, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

To correct my mistakes from writing incorrect requirement format for wikipedia. I will try my best to prevent the same mistake happend again.

Decline reason:

That appears to be an acceptable username. However, you will not be unblocked to write about your school. If that is your only goal, then this is the end of the line. If you want to make contributions to other articles outside of your conflict of interest, then tell us what they might be in your next unblock request. PhilKnight (talk) 12:08, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That username is acceptable and available, but the issue isn't the format, it's your apparent connection to the school. What would you write about other than that? Daniel Case (talk) 06:25, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Actually i'm one of the staff working in the school. My purpose creating the wikipedia is actually to let user know what is this school about and a few description about us. I had no intention to promote about what our school provided. If there's a description about promoting our school, i can edit and left only description/information about us. Wisedu (talk) 08:11, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please post new topics at the bottom of your talk page. This is necessary to keep the discussions in their correct chronological order. Thank you. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 14:35, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
