Ceres Football Club-ManilaDear FoCuSandLeArN, Thank you for your advise in how to improve my article. This is my first contribution and I am still struggling with the formats and all. I will search the Help section for the referencing you suggested. In this regard, can you give me a short guide or example on how to make in-line citations? Thank you. Wpolido (talk) 14:19, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
Many thanks. Wpolido (talk) 16:49, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
Anyway will keep improving the article. Hopefully other contributors from Quezon City would notice this and add to it. Regards. Wpolido (talk) 17:24, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

Ball Possession and Possession With PurposeHi, I'm not tracking the suggestion of merging this article into Ball Possession; is the suggestion to cut and paste the entire article in there? If so I can do that - does this also mean including the references as well as other attachments? Would this also mean the title changes from Ball Possession to "Ball Possession With Purpose"? All the best, ChrisChrisGluck (talk) 18:19, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi, just a quick courtesy notification about further comments I've made over at User talk:ChrisGluck following the recent edits at Ball possession. --nonsense ferret 22:45, 21 March 2013 (UTC) The Signpost: 18 March 2013

Submission declinedYou declined my submission for Articles for creation/No More Sad Refrains: The Anthology because it wasn't adequately supported by reliable sources. Why are these sources not adequate. Is the format of the reference inadequate (not enough information), the type of reference (Official Sandy Denny webpage and Allmusic.com Sandy Denny entry), or some other reason? Wikizenji (talk)
Dendrotek 22:00, 25 March 2013 (UTC) Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Raymond VanierHi thanks for reviewing the above. I understand the need to Wikify the citations, which I intend doing. I have already drafted and included some reputable and strong References, to which I will form in-line cites. However I am surprised that you seem to have flagged up questioning whether Vanier is "notable." As a colleague of Didier Daurat, he was one of the first pilots of l'Aeropostale (subsequently Air Blue, Air France, now Air Bus Industries) and as already stated in my draft, founder of Barcelona International Airport. The pair of them went on to pioneer routes throughout Europe, Africa and across the Andes into Chile. They are the basis for characters in novels of Saint-Exupery too Vanier once rescued him!). Hugely significant for the development of European civil aviation and airmails. There are entries for both Vanier and Daurat in French Wikipedia, but this article on Vanier will be better and subsequently I may improve the English Wikipedia article on Daurat too, if not too discouraged by reviewers! Perhaps you would be kind enough to re-read the draft in terms of its content rather than its observation of Wiki editing rules. Best Wishes, Dendrotek 22:00, 25 March 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dendrotek (talk • contribs)
Dendrotek 23:23, 25 March 2013 (UTC) Cheers - I've copied the draft into my Sandbox to do some Wikifying.

I included external links and references to two opera houses who presented this opera, the publishing house who published it, and the composer and the librettist of the opera, plus a few article reviewing the premiere. I thought these were going to be enough sources to make the information verifiable. Please let me know how could I improve on that matter, thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GiavanniCors (talk • contribs) 23:34, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
Crow hailerHi there, I have a dilemma I hope you can help me with... the BBC have posted a biog page for the music band I represent (Crow hailer) but I can only upload a biog from Wikipedia. Can you please advise me how I can edit my article to make it acceptable to Wiki? They have played many concerts in France and the UK and released an album in 2012 (available on iTunes and Amazon). They have been played on BBC 6 Music and reviewed by various journals including Electric Harmony. The band is made up of 'seasoned' musicians who have been playing for decades and been in other successful bands. They will be touring this summer and have already been confirmed for a number of festivals - shortlisted for Glastonbury just today. Please can you help? I am fairly computer savvy and consider myself reasonably smart (I have a PhD in molecular biology) so I can find my way around most websites but this has thrown me a bit as I can't quite see what I am doing wrong... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Justbut&diff=next&oldid=546980715 Many thanks Justbut (talk) 23:43, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
Matt Sergott post requestHi! You denied my submission based upon notability and references. I included many references from independent sites like IMDB which are industry standard and easily verifiable. Could you please tell me which references you find unacceptable since so many were included? Also, if notability is a problem, is that something that can be corrected? If you just do not feel Matt has made adequate professional contributions regardless of my references, could you please let me know so that I do not waste both our time with further references? Thanks, Ann
Declined submission: NASDAQ OMXYou declined submission because of unsourced material and unreliable sources. I am just a student learning about stock market and want to contribute to wikipedia in this area and about my country's stock market. Official website of stock market is best and very reliable source since they are required by law to provide only correct and verified information. I believe this applies to all stock market information in all countries, since based on this information investment decisions are being made. I will gladly add more citations and sources, but can you review your position on official website as unreliable source? thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dainiusblynas (talk • contribs) 09:52, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
AfC submissionI became aware of your decline of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Carna Botnet because I have User:Lowkeyvision's page on my watchlist. Could you please expand on your reason for declining the article? All you said was "original research", but I don't see how that's the case here at all; the information is verified in several reliable sources, and while the article may be perfect, I don't see any major information that isn't in those sources.

Denial of page for "Miles Power"You declined my article today for not having reliable sources. Sorry I'm a noob, but I thought I did a decent job making this page about my friend Miles Power so if you can help steer me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. I submitted with two cited articles about him (one from 850 KOA radio station web site, and one from the official "Denver Broncos" website blog). I also cited the video clip of him being on "The John Fox Show" which is a local TV show broadcast in the Colorado area on CBS. I could not find any "article" about him being on the show, just the clip from the show itself which is the best cite I have really. Sorry that is all I can find right now, but I thought those three cites were more than enough to validate the simple purpose of his Wiki page. Thanks!

Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Bharat Vikas ParishadHello Harry! My article has been declined for not being "adequately supported by reliable sources". I need your guidance to proceed further. Could you kindly specify, to begin with, some points in the first few paragraphs of my article where it is absolutely critical to have sources? I would work on them and it may give me confidence to proceed further. Incidentally, I find that one Hindi language page for the same topic is already on the wikipedia at http://hi.wikipedia.org/s/1di May I submit that the article as "skeleton" may be permitted to which further meat could be added - which fully meets the criterion of third party reliability.

Article Denial / TearpalmYou declined my article "Tearpalm" (about Serbian post-industrial band)on grounds of 'non-notability' and 'lack of reliable sources. I'd like to point out that your first argument is at best arguable, because notability in that respective genre (I haven't heard of any international hits by Rapoon or Cisfinitum, and yet they are on Wikipedia) and region (Balkan) cannot be bluntly measured against notability guidelines, since it's not pop music. Your second argument is absolute balderdash: sources include main popular music portals in Serbia and Croatia, as well as radio of Stanford university and WFMU's branch Free Music Archive. There are other bands from Serbia with just as much (and equally reliable sources), and those articles are still here. Now, I understand that not everything that any of us finds worthy reading about does necessarily belong on Wikipiedia, but the fact that You haven't heard of something, don't understand it or do not care about it should not be the reason enough to delete it.

Comment regarding your articlesHigh FoCuSandLeArN, I've found a number of problems in articles you have created and have raised those concerns, as well as the topic of your autopatrolled flag, at User talk:Ironholds#Pull an autopatrolled tag?. Ryan Vesey 19:15, 29 March 2013 (UTC)}
Slow the heck downI initially looked at your articles because of your massive acceptances of Doncram's articles. First, I'd like to request that you don't review any of his articles,you review far too many and there are many errors. Consider Marlborough Tavern, your most recent one of his, and the sentence "In 1978 it was operated as a restaurant, the Marlborough Tavern.[2] and 1978.[3]" The error in this case was inserted by yourself, not Doncram. Now consider this copyedit of Kingsville, Texas and the statement "According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 13.9 square miles (36 km²), of which 13.8 square miles (36 km²) are land and 0.04 square miles (0.10 km²) are (0.22%) water." First, {{convert}} should have been applied. Second, it is still not grammatically correct. Now we have 135 articles that are no longer tagged as needing a copy edit, and I have no confidence that a single one of them was copy edited correctly. I recently had to clean up some of your sloppy work at Paniyiri Greek Festival as well. So please, slow down in everything you do and focus on doing it right. Ryan Vesey 21:00, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

Vizzini (The Princess Bride) subimission deniedHello, i'm the author of the Vizzini (The Princess Bride) article. You said my article was not supported by reliable sources. I'm not sure if you have seen The Princess Bride, but another character of that movie, Inigo Montoya, has his own wikipedia article. That article only has ONE reference. That reference is the original book manuscript. I used that same reference, having seen the movie and read the book, and I also used quotes from IMDb. So I am asking you to relook into my article because I use the same source as Inigo Montoya, and more. JoshBlitz (talk) 20:46, 27 March 2013 (UTC)JoshBlitz}
Alright, i'm fairly new to wikipedia, even though I used IMDb, I only used it for quotes. The rest were ALL from the book refernece. I'm not sure if you've read the book or seen the movie. Also, how come Inigo Montoya was aproved even though it used the same reference I used? Also, you explained something about having an article moved into wikipedia space without the AFC process. How do I go about doing that. JoshBlitz (talk) 22:23, 28 March 2013 (UTC)JoshBlitz
Alrighty then, how do I submit my article without going through the AFC process? Also, if I do somehow get my article into wikipedia space without going through the AFC process, would it get deleted? One more thing, if I need a LOT of references to show the subjects notability, then how come the movie/book this character is from already has a page for two of it's characters; Inigo Montoya, Dread Pirate Roberts; a page for the original book; written in 1973, by William Goldman; and a page for the movie adaption, directed by Rob Reiner, in 1987. If that doesn't show the notability of this character then I don't know what will! Also, the character is portrayed by Wallace Shawn, also the voice of Rex in Toy Story! JoshBlitz (talk) 23:01, 28 March 2013 (UTC)JoshBlitz
But how would I get reviews for a movie character? Also, the Inigo Montoya page does not have reviews... JoshBlitz (talk) 22:09, 29 March 2013 (UTC)JoshBlitz

Please assume good faith; defend yourself against unjust accusations as necessary, but don't assume that other editors are out to get you. As reigning Queen of the Typo, my use of the preview button before every save spares me untold embarrassment. And while it's nice to amass barnstars and such, it's about quality, not quantity; I think the GOCE has a good reputation at the moment and if that's lost, it's hard to regain.

Hi, you left a message on my Talk about page about deleting a William Morris Endeavor client list page (which has since been removed). I contested it, but got no response. My argument is that that CAA has the same thing and their page has no issues. Also, providing a client list is informative to the public and not self-promotion.Thanks Tinywings10 (talk) 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Hello FoCuSandLeArN. Popping by on a courtesy visit to let you know I have made a change to one of your recent taggings on Brandon Bogotay. You had required more citations, but when I looked, I saw that there were no references to begin with, so I have changed the tag to "unreferenced". If I am wrong or acted incorrectly please let me know. Kindest regards to you and many thanks. Happy wiki-ing (MrNiceGuy1113 (talk) 09:43, 4 April 2013 (UTC))
Suggest you delete your commentThis is just one person's opinion, but I think this edit was ill-considered. Yes, you should pursue your discussion with Ryan V, but don't invite the readers of the noticeboard to his talk page to continue broader discussion. If I were you, I would remove that comment. [PS — Unwarranted suspicions and over-the-top criticism "come with the territory" when you we engage with strangers on the Internet. Example: When I first ran across your work, I thought you might be a sockpuppet of a puppetmaster I'm always watching out for. It's unpleasant to have your work second-guessed, but unfortunately, we need to live with some of that.] --Orlady (talk) 16:25, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
