14:14:42, 28 August 2014 review of submission by Bemporad[edit]

Dear Helpdesk,

I just submitted a few minutes ago a new article titled "Metaphonia". Nevertheless, the right title should be "Metaphony": the reason why a changed the title is the need for a disambiguation page about the therm "metaphony". In fact, the article I wrote decribes a new theory of music harmony named "Metaphony", wich is totally different from what described in the existing page on Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaphony) dealing with historical linguistics. Please let me know how to proceed.

Sincere regards, Alessandro Bemporad

In order to avoid confusion I have renamed your drat thus Draft:Metaphony (musical harmony). If this name proves to be imperfect that is fine and can be changed at any point in the future. I regret I do not have the skill to review this draft myself. In order to help readers are any of the references ones where there is an online version? Adding a link will be especially helpful, though not mandatory at all. 14:20, 28 August 2014 (UTC)Fiddle Faddle

Request on 14:32:54, 28 August 2014 for assistance on AfC submission by Linkdata[edit]


I'm trying to get some help on how to get my page approved. I'm working on "Draft:Link_Data_Security".

Yes I know this is a company and I'm not trying to make any commercialing, but I think that Link Data Security has a mentional history. Though Link Data has been a 3th party distributor, they have been on the edge of development when it comes to hardwardware(CD/DVD) recognition, and got more than 30 years in copy protection.

I don't clearly understands what the last reviewer was telling me to update, as I believe I have already done so? I wan't to make the best page possible without any commercializing involved, please help me.

Best regards, Frank Jelstrup

@Linkdata: I have doubts about the independence and reliability of Tape-Disc Business magazine, which you use heavily as a source. It's possible it's a well-known trade periodical in your industry. Chris Troutman (talk) 15:25, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

18:01:30, 28 August 2014 review of submission by Nicoler2014[edit]

I would like to know why the article I wrote was rejected and what I can do to improve it so that it won't get rejected again. Thank you.

Nicoler2014 (talk) 18:01, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your ideal first step would have been to follow the advice "Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer" on the notice declining the draft and looking at the messages left on the draft itself, where a useful message has been left. If you don't understand this message please come back and ask us, or ask the reviewer who declined it, or both. Fiddle Faddle 19:08, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I created all the content of the article. Please direct me what directed you to believe this is not my work... For I worked long hours to create the content of my article. Sincerely, Windsor Lindor.

We need to know what the article is, please. There are no articles currently associated with this IP address. Fiddle Faddle 19:18, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did not login when I posted my initial question and not sure if it was posted. I worked long hours to create my article and many hours editing my work for your review. What did direct you to determine that my article has copyrighted info? Please advice... Wlindor (Windsor Lindor)

Wlindor (talk) 19:10, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The article was deleted for the following reason: "19:46, 28 August 2014 Hut 8.5 (talk | contribs) deleted page User:Wlindor/Windsor lindor (G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement: http://windsorlindor.com/AboutWindsorLindor.html) It is rare that we are mistaken, but it can happen.

20:03:08, 28 August 2014 request for review by Goldmgmt[edit]


Hello, I'm wondering why my submission for celebrity tattoo artist , TV personality and international cover model Lea Vendetta was not accepted. Thank You.

Goldmgmt (talk) 20:03, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Good lord. It was declined 3 months ago today! It seems you have not looked at it. When you do you will see why. If you submit articles for review it is quite useful to follow through more often than at 3 month intervals. Fiddle Faddle 20:34, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is, however, a copyright violation of http://leaslounge.com/ and will soon be deleted if it has not been already. Fiddle Faddle 20:42, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

20:04:06, 28 August 2014 review of submission by 91.156.198.112[edit]

I'm working on a draft for an upcoming indie video game. I've done my share of anonymous editing, but this is my first time creating a new article, so I would like to see feedback from experts in case I've missed any key points. No copyvios, wiki syntax is ok, notability is established with diverse gaming journalist coverage (no unreliable blogs), article text is easily verifiable with inline citations of second- or first-party online sources. I'm mostly worried about the overall style and tone of my writing, or perhaps something I've missed completely. Let me know if there are any glaring issues! - 91.156.198.112 (talk) 20:04, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your article layout and formatting is great. Whether notability is established, I will leave to the reviewer. Just because something is not a blog does not automatically make it useful for proving notability. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:10, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I'm aware that the videogame journalism isn't a well-established industry and notability is often questionable, but I tried to include sources listed in WikiProject Video games/Sources as reliable. - 91.156.198.112 (talk) 23:21, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

20:52:27, 28 August 2014 review of submission by Mjschiff[edit]


I just submitted a proposed page, and it says that it will take quite a while to be approved. I would like to work on another new page, but when I go to my sandbox, it refers me to the information page that tells me about my submission. What do I need to do to get to my sandbox again?

Mjschiff (talk) 20:52, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There is an infinite number of sandboxes. Let's assume your new article is called "Foo", you can create User:Mjschiff/Foo by clicking the link and work in it at once. Fiddle Faddle 21:03, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

22:56:45, 28 August 2014 review of submission by Politics & Sci-Fi[edit]


I'm newly signed up and this is the first page I've written. I put in a reference on the editing page and I then saved it. But when I looked at the preview page, the reference had been replaced by this: tags, these references will then appear here automatically --> and the rest of what I'd written after that was missing. Is this normal for a preview page, or have I done something wrong? Politics & Sci-Fi (talk) 22:56, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You forgot an angled bracket. Please view the history of that page to see what I changed to fix it. Also, please don't submit a draft for review until you have added independent reliable sources that evidence its notability. WP:42 might help. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:04, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
