I was advised that copyright material is not accepted, but its my own material? Also, under the heading INSURANCE classes, there is no class calssified as "Environmental Insurance" and I wanted to get that put in as a definition? How can I proceed to gain acceptance?

This page is for questions about the Articles for creation process. Please consider asking this question at the Wikipedia:Reference desk. They specialize in knowledge questions and will try to answer any question in the universe (except how to use Wikipedia, since that is what the Help Desk is for). Just follow the link, select the relevant section, and ask away. You could always try searching Wikipedia for an article related to the topic you want to know more about. I hope this helps.

Hello,

My entry for FISH - Forum on Information Standards in Heritage - has been rejected but I don't know why. I would be most grateful if someone could point out my mistakes and how I may improve it for a resubmission.

Many thanks for your help.

Kind regards

The rejection comment for my submission about an online gaming site is: "Need to have discussions and reviews about the game from third party sources. Nothing indicates that anyone knows about the existence of the web site or the game"

Would really appreciate any help with how to include this - the site has several thousand players, so do I need to get some quotes from some of them and include them in the general content area/description of the various games and features? Or are they looking for references on other websites that can be linked to?

Many Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zwooper (talkcontribs) 11:22, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We're looking for independent, reliable published sources (like newspaper, news websites or magazine articles). Sionk (talk) 22:40, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please review my submission for article Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Elsa Cladera de Bravo --Nadezhda Bravo Cladera (talk) 12:37, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to submit User:Nadezhda Bravo Cladera as a draft article, you should put {{subst:submit}} at the top of it. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 16:08, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I've been trying to fix this article (on and off) for months, and I feel like I've googled the hell out of it and can't see how it could have any more references... What can I do? I'm sort of worried about having totally wasted my time. Are there lines I can just cut? THANKS! Markmarkai (talk) 14:18, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's a bug. If there is a box saying it is submitted, then the box saying it is not submitted is wrong and can be ignored. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 16:05, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Wiki editor,

I have created an extensive article on "Walt Odets" which was rejected due to minor formatting issues. I have now made revisions per the Wiki editor's suggestions and (urgently) wish to resubmit the article. The editor ("Hasteur", I believe) deemed the subject worthy of a Wiki article.

Please advise how to resubmit. It is currently on the "Talk" page in my account; confusingly, it now appears as though it were an official Wikipedia article, though it is not accessible through the site (i.e., if one searches "Walt Odets").

Please advise as to how to resubmit this article and move toward final acceptance.

To submit it for review, add {{subst:submit}} at the top of the page. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 08:25, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello I would like to reference some wikipedia articles about Dr.s so I can get some ideas to model for my own Dr.s article submission. LewisDavidson (talk) 20:44, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You could look at the articles in Category:Endocrinologists. The very first thing you need to do is add sources to prove Dr. Comite is important enough for a Wikipedia article. Sionk (talk) 22:31, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
We have more than a dozen listed Wikipedia Good Articles about doctors at Wikipedia:Good articles/Natural sciences#Medicine; these would be good examples to model your article from. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 11:55, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is this submitted for review or not? I have clicked the right buttons, but it is still marked Not currently submitted for review.

What am I doing wrong?

No it is not currently submitted for review. To submit it for review manually, add {{subst:submit}} at the top of the page. Arthur goes shopping (talk) 08:24, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

how do i remove the article from the aricles for creation review process and move it directly to publication? With over 1200 articles awaiting review, I don't want to wait several more weeks. Thank you. Hudsonscg (talk) 23:26, 23 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

no Declined. See comment therein. Pol430 talk to me 17:02, 24 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If you moved it to mainspace in its current state it would be deleted very quickly - the current draft does not comply with WP:Notability. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 06:44, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
