Request on 15:06:22, 25 July 2024 for assistance on AfC submission by Eazuri
Thank you very much for reviewing my draft page! I am requesting assistance because my submission has been declined multiple times before and each time I do my best to correct/implement the points raised in reviews, it seems that I am failing. I could just stop editing, but I am a beginner at this and I put enough effort into this to not leave it unfinished. I know people who know him and we have the same profession, but I do not have a conflict of interest, as far as I can tell. I am rather new to Wikipedia editing, so I thought I would start with an article about a personality that (to the best of my knowledge and according to my personal experiences) is quite well-known in Hungary and that I know a lot about. He has a page on the Hungarian Wikipedia, I translated most of that text to English then added practically all of the trustworthy information I could find on him online (with sources from his universities, organizations that he has taken part in, written media, media programmes that he appears in, interviews with him about himself, etc.). 1. I am usually receiving the feedback that the sources seem unreliable (even though I am using official and well-known, non-partisan sources when I could find them). I used the same ones as the Hungarian Wiki page (I speak Hungarian and have checked each of them), and many more. 2. The other point is relevance. Among my acquaintances in Hungary, most say they know of him. He works a lot with businesses and politicians and (based on what I know of him) he plays quite an active part in shaping policies and public opinion through his consultancy and media appearances. He is active in the Brussels bubble and I thought that writing about him could not only be a good first try for me, but also useful for non-Hungarians who encounter him there. It seems that in trying to prove his relevance, I somehow ended up using promotional language. I have read the guidelines on that and tried to find "peacock terms" and such, but could not point out where I misstepped. The only thing I can think of is "He has gained more and more recognition since the start of the war in Ukraine in 2022." - sourced, because that is what the referenced article says about him. If you could help me with any of these points, point out specific mistakes and such, I would be very grateful. Thank you in advance, I hope it is not too big of a trouble, I just thought you might be the best person to ask for help. Eazuri (talk) 15:06, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Major League BaseballI saw your recent edit (29 and 1) on the subject page and am curious as to what part of MOS:NUM supports your point, because the lede of MOS:FIGURE doesn't and after reading down a couple times through the chaff, I didn't find the section that does.
