re: Wikipedia talk: Articles for creation/Jack Curran

[edit]

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Jack_Curran I did not know how to leave a message for numbermaniac. I left this message on his talk page but I'm not sure I did it correctly. Perhaps someone can help me? Thanks.

re: Wikipedia talk: Articles for creation/Jack Curran

Hi Numbermaniac, You reviewed the above mentioned submission and rejected it due to the fact that "the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Jack Curran instead." That Jack Curran is "John Joseph "Jack" Curran". This article is about "John Bernard "Jack" Curran". So editing the "John Joseph "Jack" Curran" article, as suggested, will do no good. What do I need to do with the "John Bernard "Jack" Curran" submission to have it approved?

Sorry about this, the reviewer should have checked that properly. I've moved your article submission to Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Jack Curran (broadcaster) to avoid this happening again. You should try re-submitting it by clicking the blue Resubmit button. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 14:18, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I put an article to the sandbox and proceeded for edition. Now I want to create another article, but my sandbox is full. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wingelmayer (talkcontribs) 07:40, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I want my article to be reviewed. I click "Save Page" and it goes back to the "This article is not pending a review" page. I don't understand. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Canadacreate (talkcontribs) 10:29, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Put {{subst:submit}} at the top of the page, then save. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 20:06, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Actually Jéské Couriano, all the page needed was a "Clean" to move the current submission templates to the top of the page.

Hello! Something is wrong. Rikio Sugano is not about Rikio Sugano, but on another person which is clear in the article. I am not quite sure why this happens. Please teach me how to solve the problem. I think this article is worth an article, if the theme is correct. --Ichiro Kikuchi (talk) 13:44, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It look like one of our administrators has fixed this problem for you. Bellerophon talk to me 14:10, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

re: Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Fanchants.com

Hi there, my article has been rejected due to notabilty, despite it being the only archive of it's kind in the world and sources such as The New York Times refercing it in more than one article. I am finding it difficult to know what other sources i can include or if i am jsut getting the writing style wrong? Any help would be very much appreciatred!

Thanks in advance

Your first, sixth, and seventh references make no mention of the subject what-so-ever. I cannot assess the second reference, but it appears to be a name-drop and thus unusable as a reference. The third and fourth references are name-drops. Please read WP:Notability. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 20:04, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
