December 18

[edit]

I wanted to confirm that the newly edited post for Life Architecture has been submitted for review. Can you please verify?Bivkovic (talk) 07:19, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission has not been queued for review. It has, however, been declined multiple times and still does not cite any reliable sources. I have had a search for sources myself and cannot find any (most hits are for the "Woods of Ypres" song "Modern Life Architecture"), so I can't see it passing submission any time soon. I think at this stage you should find another article to edit, I'm afraid. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:26, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Just wondering what the status is of the latest submission of the article 'Folk2Folk', submitted December 10?

Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.155.201.162 (talk) 12:38, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've just checked and it wasn't submitted on the 10th December, it was edited but the editor removed the two decline templates which made it effectively invisible to the AfC project. I've replaced the templates so you can submit it again, although in the current state it has too much positive language. The tone of a wikipeida article needs to be much flatter and more matter of fact than this. Rankersbo (talk)

Thanks, will review now... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.155.201.162 (talk) 13:02, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My main issue was with the phrase "a new concept"- which while possibly true sounds a bit too promotional. The fact it's on the first line may colour a reviewers picture of the rest of the article. "How it works" doesn't seem to fit with an encyclopaedic article, but that may just be my opinion. Rankersbo (talk) 13:07, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I received an email stating that my page may contain "Copy Righted" material for my page Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/440th Civil Affairs Battalion (United States)

Could i please have the specifics so i can change them.

thank you

Usually the page (and/or sections thereof) would be flagged themselves, with a link to the source being copied from. I don't see that here. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:31, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello to who wants to help in a positive way. For some time now I try to make a page about the Leavitt bulldog. But because our references is basically provided by webpages it is hard to deliver other sources.

But now for some moderators this is third party information .

But to me (yes newbie) this clearly shows I provide information to see that this exist. And isn’t any link in a references a third party link Also our dogs share the same history as the Old English Bulldog this is no secret but sins 2006 we went our way and now everyone can see we have other dogs but with an early same history as the OEB. Can some please help me with the right information so that our Leavitt bulldog can be accepted with his own page Please read my article and let me know how or what to change so my page can be approved Thank you very much in advance Gr Barry Schutte (freedombulls) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Freedombulls (talkcontribs) 20:17, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your sources are not the only problem. Wikipedia is a general encyclopedia, and so we don't want information only of interest to enthusiasts. You have too much detail in the article. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 21:20, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just completed of article Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Traveling salesman humor I'm unclear as to whether or not I needed to do something further to bring it to your attention for review. Ronald D. Solberg (talk) 20:45, 18 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Ronald D. Solberg, you submitted it correctly, I reviewed it, and I have declined it for the reasons listed in the pink box, and in my written comments below the pink box. Please carefully read the comments, and if you have a follow-up question please come post it here, and let us know what you'd like clarified. Thanks!
