09:00:20, 17 May 2015 review of submission by Ksandhu

[edit]


Hi! I am very new to creating and editing on Wikipedia. My first attempt is writing an article outlining the biography of a Dutch Director / Filmmaker using my sandbox ksandhu. It has been submitted for review. Please advise how I ensure this article is placed in the right category?

I would like to submit another article, how do i set up a new draft article to send for review? Appreciate your help. Thank you in advance.

@Ksandhu: I've moved your article to the draft space at Draft:Harold Monfils, which frees your sandbox for another draft article. (You'll see a redirect to Draft:Harold Monfils in your sandbox, but you can delete that redirect and start writing a new draft.) Alternatively, you can start a new draft by using the Article Wizard. A reviewer will be along in the next weeks to assess your article, so you needn't place the article in any categories. /wia /talk 12:12, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for accepting my article. I'm wondering if it appears yet in public searches on wikipedia or if there are other steps i have to take to ensure that happens? Also is there any way I can edit the title to simply remove the comma?

thanks for your time

Hi Ruthratcliffe, to change the title of a page you WP:MOVE it to the new title. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 13:22, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]


Hello,

I recently submitted an article about Roger Machado (Martial Artist). He is a notable martial artist, one of the 5 Machado brothers (Machado family on wiki) who are renowned pioneers of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Every other Machado brother has a wiki page except Roger (please see Carlos Machado, Rigan Machado, Jean Jacques Machado, and John Machado). The article included 4-5 relevant citations as well as links to his iMDB page. Are there any additional citations needed for approval? please offer guidance

thanks in advance,

@8eyes: The draft at User:8eyes/sandbox was declined because it is a duplicate of Draft:Roger Machado, both of which had been submitted. The Draft:Roger Machado will be reviewed in the coming weeks, so stay tuned! /wia /talk 19:51, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
