03:14, 13 October 2023 review of submission by JoshJeg247

[edit]

The submission was rejected. Kindly help with suggestions on how to improve it to Wikipedia's acceptable standard. JoshJeg247 (talk) 03:14, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@JoshJeg247: precisely because it was rejected, which means the draft cannot be submitted again, there is nothing to improve. Suggest you leave it and find something else to write about. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:27, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I need assistance to resubmit this article in the right format. Abialic (talk) 08:31, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Abialic The draft has been rejected, meaning that it will not be considered further. There is nothing more that can be done. 331dot (talk) 08:35, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi, My page I submitted got rejected. I was wondering if there's anything I can do in particular to make it more acceptable? Or it is just the lack of references? Thank you, Jennifer MoreSteamer (talk) 19:49, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

MoreSteamer I fixed your post to provide a link to your draft(you had "Page Rejection" there instead).
I see that you claimed the image of the logo as your own personal work; this would mean that you personally designed the logo and want to make it available for anyone to use for any purpose with attribution(which could include, for example, printing it on clothing and selling it). Did you design the logo? Logos are typically uploaded under "fair use" rules to this Wikipedia directly(which new accounts cannot do themselves, but may use WP:FFU)/
Wikipedia is not a place to tell about a productand what it does- a Wikipedia article(not the broader term "page") must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the product, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability. For products, that usually means summarizing reviews from professional reviewers. 331dot (talk) 20:02, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thank you! MoreSteamer (talk) 20:05, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
MoreSteamer Please answer the question about the logo. 331dot (talk) 20:10, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I did not it design myself. It is a logo of my company's, so I suppose it would qualify for the fair use? I thought the draft wasn't being published anyway? MoreSteamer (talk) 20:23, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
MoreSteamer The draft was declined, not rejected. Rejected has a specific meaning, that a draft may not be resubmitted. Declined means that a draft may be resubmitted.
You must immediately request deletion of the logo from Commons; Commons only hosts "free" images in terms of copyright. Unless your company wants to make the logo of its product avaiable for anyone to use for any purpose(I wouldn't if I were the company), it needs to be uploaded to this Wikipedia locally(see WP:FFU) under fair use rules. This does carry some restrictions(fair use images cannot be in drafts).
Images are not relevant to the draft approval process, which only considers the text and sources. You don't need to worry about images until the draft is accepted. 331dot (talk) 20:35, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
OK, great, thank you for the explanation. I appreciate your help. I will request deletion. MoreSteamer (talk) 20:41, 13 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
