[edit]

Why was my submission declined? https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Niall_Sheehy_(actor) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Karin Phan (talkcontribs) 01:41, 25 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It has been accepted and is now at Niall Sheehy (actor). There are a few tags on it indicating problems that need to be fixed, in addition I noticed the article refers to various people (not only Sheehy) by their first names, please change those instances to surnames - once a person has been first mentioned by their full name (with a wikilink where relevant) you should use only the surname when referring to them again. So the corrections should be; "Niall Sheehy did this..." and "Andrew Lloyd Webber said that...". Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 07:18, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the old content it is all in the history if it is wanted. The object is to include only what can be supported by proper citations. DES (talk) 06:42, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dear User:DESiegel I can understand. I am Amna Nasir Jamal and in freelance writing. You can google my name.Actually I had once wiki account which I losted means I dont remember anymore my ID and email [got hacked]. I can understand but I found this ID 'whitepearl' easy to remember so I did. So should I re-launch ID and re-submit this autobiography? Kindly guide me. I am obliged that you are assisting me a lot. --Whitepearl1 (talk) 06:28, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Whitepearl1, there is no need to re-launch the draft. You can go through changing user names or, since you have only a few edits, you can simply create a new account and stop using User:Whitepearl1. But your new account should be clearly just for your use, and not look like a corporate account. It need not include your legal name, unless you wish it to do so.
The most important things for the draft Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Malik Muhammad Jahangir is to add citations to reliable independent sources for all the major content, with enough discussion of Jahangir to establish notability (see WP:BIO and WP:GNG), , and to make sure that the whole article has a neutral viewpoint, describing things factually, and not including any opinions or value judgements unless they are clearly attributed to someone's published words, with a a proper citation that confirms that attribution.

And by the way, please don't create a new section if you are posting on the same topic, simply add to the existing section. I have now combined the various sections on this topic, Whitepearl1. DES (talk) 06:45, 26 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
