Jidu Auto

Hi Matt - I just peeked at Draft:Jidu Auto and I am sort of at a loss at why this was not approved. The Wired reference meets all four references, bolstered by articles from Reuters and CNBC. Could you perhaps clarify the sort of reference that will be required? I am aware of Jengtingchen's earlier issues with copyright, but that all seems to have been pruned. Best,  Mr.choppers | ✎  18:06, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Help with request for 3rd opinion

From what I have read, we are allowed only a limited number of attempts at WP:3O for the same reason. Will it be fine to format my request for a 3rd party opinion thus: I want to add, "Zina has been reported from every province of the country", in the "Prevalence" section with a source cited already - the source says, "Zina has been reported from every province of Afghanistan". Another editor is objecting to it - see this discussion. Is it acceptable??-1Firang (talk) 12:05, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

Sounds fine to me, go for it! Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 12:37, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Quincy Carroll

Hello, Mattdaviesfsic. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Quincy Carroll".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Hey man im josh (talk) 11:50, 10 July 2023 (UTC)

Stationmasters

Thanks for putting the correct link in. The previous one didn't link to the discussion. Personally I'd put them in but I see the point. They were most interesting where they showed where their last and next appointments were.. Spinney Hill (talk) 07:54, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Third opinion

I saw that you removed my request for a third opinion due to a misunderstanding. There was indeed a disagreement between me and another editor on that issue. — AFC Vixen 🦊 15:20, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Fair enough, thx for letting me know. Happy for you to revert my edit there if you wish Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 15:29, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
A third opinion came nonetheless, so fortunately I have no need to revert! Just be sure to double-check before removing third opinion requests in the future, yeah? — AFC Vixen 🦊 15:48, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Regarding PROD tag

Hi. Regarding your PROD rationale at Laura Cano ([1]), I would like to point you to WP:NEXIST (Notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate presence or citation in an article); this is the entire point of why conducting a WP:BEFORE search is important. Cheers. Curbon7 (talk) 20:04, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
