Hello, Help desk team, I'm having an issue with my draft. I have edited to meet WP:NPOV as a sub. According to the last reviewer, the articles meets notability but written as an advert he says. I have edited the article and I would need assistance from the house to look into the article before I resubmit the AFC for review.

There is no yellow text that indicates whether this page is waiting for review. Please view and publish. Bh00lctathride (talk) 11:42, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bh00lctathride Your draft lacked the information needed to formally submit it for review; I have added this information so you can do so. 331dot (talk) 12:21, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I created and published an article on Feb. 9th, 2021, which was declined right after its publication on the same day. I then modified the article according to what the reviewer had requested on March 4th, 2021. Nothing has happened since then and I wanted to inquire into whether there is another problem or why the article is not going online. Thank you very much. Kind regards

SahBu You have not resubmitted it for review yet. You need to click "Resubmit". 331dot (talk) 15:07, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I have been working on submitting some change on a draft article that was refused months ago (not submitted by me at that time). The link to the draft article is the following : https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Steve_Pascolo

I submitted the revision (with many changes compared to former submissions), but nothing is happening, and it seems that at least one of the two reviewers that refused the first publication is definitely blocked.

Could you make sure that the article could be reviewed by someone? Of course, I am not deeply experienced in Wikipedia, so I might have some corrections to bring upon request, let me know in that case.

Many thanks in advance, Best, Nicolaslemonnier75 (talk) 15:42, 17 April 2021 (UTC) Nicolas[reply]

Nicolaslemonnier75 You have submitted the draft and it is pending. As noted in the submission notice, "This may take 5 months or more, since drafts are reviewed in no specific order. There are 5,590 pending submissions waiting for review." Reviews are conducted by volunteers in no particular order. You will need to be patient. 331dot (talk) 16:25, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Draft:The villa at Parkstrasse 28 (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hello, my submissionbgelent from @Gpkp with this reason "this submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources".

The same article in German, with the same sources was accepted by Wikipedia (GER) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villa_in_der_Parkstrasse_28.

As proofs serve liste: 1 - State Office for Monument Preservation Hesse, 2 - List of cultural monuments in Bad Soden am Taunus.

And book Christiane Schalles, "Chewing Gum and Spa Concerts" and artickl in German Digital Library.

Of course all references are in German!

What else can I do to publish artickl?

BadSoden1 (talk) 17:24, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BadSoden1The German language and the English Language Wikipedias have different inclusion criteria. Even so I think it is likely, but not certain, to pass our notability criteria. Wikipedia:NBUILDING will tell you for certain. It would be worth discussing this with @Gpkp Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^{Talk to me} 17:43, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you @Faddle. It is about a historic building in Germany, which is a listed building. Of course all sources are in German but they are fully linked as proof. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BadSoden1 (talk • contribs) 17:55, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The sources being in German is not an issue. We accept citations to sources not in English. The issue is that de.wp and en.wp have different standards for inclusion, and it's not certain (though it is likely) that the article meets en.wp's standards, as Timtrent says above. —A little blue Bori v^_^v ^{Jéské Couriano} 23:14, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BadSoden1:; The drafts must be reliably sourced (with multiple citations). You can see the AfC guidelines here. There are many articles such as Miscellaneous centre, The New Democrats, Phạm Minh Chính which are created directly with a translation tag, but as far as the AfC review is concerned, it must be as per the guidelines. --Gpkp [u • t • c] 06:51, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your advice. I have re-written an article based on Deelee Dube and would like to know if the subject's official website can be added as an external link within the article? I would also be grateful if you could possibly review the article.

Please advise, many thanks.
