12:10, 1 October 2023 review of submission by Chiaseanlim

[edit]

I have tried to edit the draft to meet requirements such as providing more references but seem still not yet fulfill. Please advise for more details that I missed out. Thanks. Chiaseanlim (talk) 12:10, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Chiaseanlim: this draft has been rejected and will therefore not be considered further. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:15, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

12:38, 1 October 2023 review of submission by Henrybardklein

[edit]

My original submission in April was sent back for better documentation. I supplied this in an an article about Mary Conway Kohler on June 20, but have heard nothing. Can you tell me the status of this submission. Henrybardklein (talk) 12:38, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Henrybardklein: this draft has not been resubmitted since it was declined in April. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:45, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for getting back. Boy am I puzzled by that. Ok, I'll get back to you. Henrybardklein (talk) 15:39, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It wasn't submitted because you didn't pick the "Resubmit" button, probably because you deleted it when you ignored the message Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted. ColinFine (talk) 20:48, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

16:23, 1 October 2023 review of submission by Saxofun200

[edit]

hi!

this article has been flagged for not having sufficient sources-- I've been adding other sources which are very similar to sources i've been using for other articles of similar topics. Please advise how I can get through this to make sure my page is published! Saxofun200 (talk) 16:23, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Saxofun200: if you're confident that you've sufficiently addressed the reasons for the earlier decline, then you can resubmit the draft, and in time a reviewer will assess it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:51, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

21:22, 1 October 2023 review of submission by 84.18.98.249

[edit]

Why are the sources in the article not reliable enough? 84.18.98.249 (talk) 21:22, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's going to be very difficult for a reviewer to judge the reliability of the sources, as they are in Russian. 331dot (talk) 21:36, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Are there restrictions about the link language? 84.18.98.249 (talk) 22:36, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, sources can be in Russian, but it's going to be difficult for a reviewer to evaluate them unless they know Russian, which probably few if any reviewers do. It might help if more of the sources were online. Have you published this on the Russian Wikipedia? 331dot (talk) 23:11, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, of course, the article is in the Russian Wikipedia. 84.18.98.249 (talk) 23:24, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Although both offline sources and non-English ones are acceptable, you could help the reviewers a lot by giving better indication of what the sources are that you're citing. I understand that publication names may need to be in the original language, spelled in Cyrillic script, but there is no reason why the meta information (eg. "Стр" for 'page') has to be. You could also provide an English translation of the title, and possibly a short quote of what the source says. ISBN numbers should be entered correctly so that they become easily searchable. And if there is an online version of the source available, please cite that instead. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:38, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I fixed it 84.18.98.249 (talk) 18:54, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
