Typo in Article Headline and URL

My first ever submission was pushed to the article space today and somewhere along the way the heading acquired a typo and now the url does too. The article subject is Martin A. Nisenholtz, with an "h" but the heading now reads Martin A. Nisenoltz, as does the url. How can this be corrected? Thanks for your help. Mzimbalist (talk) 02:57, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed User:DGG moved the page to the correct title. The incorrect name redirects to the correct version. The URL, however, will stay incorrect if you search using the incorrect name, if you search for th correct name, without any redirects, it will be the correct URL. That is a technical thing and can't be helped. In any case, I hope this helps. Michaelzeng7 (talk) 03:11, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Thomas Kunze

Dear Wikipedia,

I am still wondering why my article about Thomas Kunze (http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Thomas_Kunze) was rejected - you can already find him in Romanian, Russian and German wikipedia. Unfortunately, there are mainly German sources about him. If I add more sources, would the article be approved?

Thanks!

In this case I think it would. I suggest you simply put the German sources back in – although English sources are preferrable in terms of people reading the English Wikipedia being able to access them, there is nothing to say you can't use non-English sources, or that an article has to have any English sources at all! joe•roe^t•c 09:58, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Airwalk Skateboards

History Airwalk was founded in the year of 1986 in Denver,Colorado.The founders are Bill Mann,George Yohn,and Jess Lagunda.This company sponsered famous skateboarders Tony Hawk and Jason Lee.n the mid-90's, Mann left the company. After his departure, the decision was made to "go mainstream" and focus on a more general audience rather than just creating shoes for sport enthusiasts. There was a brief rise in sales, but some people loyal to the brand found the mainstream designs questionable.

In January 2004, Collective Licensing International was formed around the purchase of the Airwalk Brand. They claim their focus was to purchase iconic action sports brands and return them to their roots by re-introducing past product design and focusing on the Youth board sport culture. Purchasing brands such as Vision Streetwear, Sims Snowboards, and several others, Collective Licensing began to market the 'new' Airwalk aggressively in print magazines and online.

In March 2007, Collective Licensing International was acquired by Collective Brands International, owners of Stride Rite and Payless Shoe Source, though the Airwalk brand is still being managed and maintained autonomously by Collective Licensing International.

According to their dealer locator, the brand can be found in hundreds of various specialty shops, retail chains, and countries around the globe.

In 2009, Jeff Staple of Staple Design began working with Airwalk on a line of 80s and 90s inspired, limited run sneakers for both general release and in collaboration with brands such as The Hundreds. Their products are now sold in Sports World, a British sporting goods retailer.

Recently they have announced a product line containing many of their original styles including several styles in the 'Prototype' line, the 'Jim', and several other classics to go along with more recent styles.'Bold text' — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marcopolo987 (talk • contribs) 23:17, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've copied this content to the draft, but there are no reliable sources for any of it. We need significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, such as newspaper coverage or articles in trade magazines, both to establish the compay's notability and to allow our readers to verify the article's content.
