AI slop decline

For the draft of Justin Shetler Alexander Disappearance - can you say what part should be rewritten before resubmitting? Weavingowl (talk) 17:03, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Weavingowl. Literally all of it, nothing is salvagable. Please do not use AI to write articles. qcne (talk) 17:22, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you - I just rewrote it all. Weavingowl (talk) 17:32, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

Just finished rewriting more, should be ready for review now. Weavingowl (talk) 17:38, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

At what point does someone become notable?

I've been trying to get a page going for a relatively new writer of immense promise. Oddly, there is an article about her debut novel on Wikipedia, although there isn't one for the author, yet. (And I am in no way connected to the author, or her publishers.)

I have been trying to add the information and references you're asking for, but I have to concede, given that this is a new artist, that there aren't as many independent pieces about her work as you folks seem to want--YET.

And that last word is the sticking point. There are some independent references, including an entire essay on one of her books on ReactorMag.com, and she's been nominated for and won awards for her work. She seems to be the definition of up-and-coming. And I feel very certain that time will repair the lack of references to her.

So my question: how much do you folks need to decide someone is notable? Dionwr (talk) 19:52, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Dionwr.

Wikipedia has a really weird definition of "notable". When we say "notable" we don't mean "famous" or "well known" or even "has written something really popular". What we mean is "noted in reliable, independent, sources". So to determine if someone merits an article on Wikipedia we usually look for a minimum of three sources that each meet the three criteria of reliable (not a random blog or social media etc), independent (not an interview or press release), and significant coverage of the subject (not a passing mention or, in this case, talking about her book instead of her).

Note this is a super simplified version of notability, the full policy is long and complicated.

Notability also isn't inherited, so even if her book has an article it doesn't automatically mean she merits one. Likewise a CEO might not yet merit an article even if their company does. It all depends on the quality of the sources that exist.

This usually means then that "up and coming" people don't usually merit an article on Wikipedia, purely because multiple sources that meet the above criteria don't exist yet.

I would suggest, in this case, keep the draft on the back burner for a few months and see if any new sources appear. Drafts get auto-deleted after six months of no activity.

Hope that helps, but let me know if you have further questions. qcne (talk) 19:59, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

@Dionwr I marked this draft as "promising" which will keep it around for at least a year and puts it in a category other editors occasionally monitor so it is possible after a while someone else picks it up. Either way, you are welcome to continue working on it. I also suggest looking at the notability guidelines for books and consider if there are enough sources about her other books (specifically reviews by reputable critics/publications) to warrant an article as that might serve as a building block. S0091 (talk) 20:13, 7 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks! I'd figured to just keep the draft, and try submitting again as more articles come out. Dionwr (talk) 16:42, 9 July 2025 (UTC)

Confusion from Lee Bernstein, on behalf of Tony Zefiretto

Hi, Qcne,

Thanks for reviewing my draft. I'm new to Wikipedia and trying to get everything right. I thought I was making improvements by making everything strictly referenced material and removing anything that might sound editorial. I'd appreciate knowing what I should do now. Should I edit and submit again or leave everything as is? Lee Bernstein (talk) 19:11, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Lee Bernstein. You kept removing my decline notices and re-submitting without any substantial changes - drafts should be built incrementally, with each submission retaining the previous decline notices. More pressingly, you used an AI chatbot to write the draft. Please start again, from scratch, without the use of AI. Please also see the referencing tutorial at Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1. qcne (talk) 19:14, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you, Qcne! Lee Bernstein (talk) 20:43, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

Because I only have a few acceptable newspaper articles for references, I rewrote it and shortened it to keep everything journalistic and verifiable. Does it still need to be redone? I did a lot of cutting and pasting. Does that come through as being AI? Also, I used AI to make sure the references were cited correctly. Is that okay? Lee Bernstein (talk) 20:46, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

Please don't use AI to format the references - instead follow the tutorial I linked above. qcne (talk) 09:19, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

User:Hyggemule is blocked, this isn't grave dancing but I was the guy who reported him to WP:AN and he got blocked within 10 minutes of me reporting him, and the discussion was closed before you and 331dot could get your opinion on it. 2606:9400:98A0:92A0:6D82:20DD:2B01:7EE9 (talk) 14:40, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Nah man, this is gravedancing, please stop. And please don't report people to AN when you're not part of the dispute. It makes it look like one of the involved editors is WP:LOUTSOCKing and it's not all that helpful. -- asilvering (talk) 14:44, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @User:EditorShane3456. I did not appreciate you taking it to AN. If the (now blocked) user wanted to take me to AN they could have done so themselves. It was alarming to see a random IP who had no involvement start an AN thread. I understand you were trying to be helpful, but this was not helpful. qcne (talk) 14:54, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Request for reconsideration: Draft:Crestpoint University

Hello Qcne,

Thank you for taking the time to review my submission for Draft:Crestpoint University.

I understand your concerns regarding notability, but I would like to respectfully request reconsideration. Crestpoint University is the direct institutional successor to National Paralegal College, which has had an accepted Wikipedia article since 2007 and remains active under Crestpoint’s structure. The rebranding reflects an institutional evolution, not a new or unrelated entity.

In the updated draft, I included multiple independent, reliable, secondary sources, such as:

• Recognition by the **National College Credit Recommendation Service (NCCRS)** for both Crestpoint and its LawShelf division
• Listing in **MERLOT**, a curated academic repository for peer-reviewed OER
• References in **college LibGuides** (Tacoma Community College, University of the Incarnate Word)
• Inclusion on **eLearning Industry** and **Credly**
• Professional program recognition by the **New York State Department of Health** for licensure eligibility
• Academic partnerships with **Southern New Hampshire University**, **Sophia Learning**, and the **Sara Schenirer Institute**

These sources demonstrate significant academic integration, recognition, and credibility. Given the existing article for NPC and the continuity of accreditation, administration, and program offerings under the Crestpoint name, I hope this additional context supports restoration under WP:NCORP and WP:GNG.

I’m happy to continue improving the draft if any adjustments are needed. I greatly appreciate your time and consideration.

Sincerely, Sthaas76 (talk) 15:56, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Sthaas76. Private Universities must satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) requirements. I don't think the National Paralegal College meets that criteria either! None of the sources you provided above meet the criteria linked above.

My rejection therefore still stands.

Are you connected or employed by the college? qcne (talk) 16:00, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for reviewing my film submission

I realized that the article was a bit promotional and speculative at times, so have revised to be more neutral in tone and fact-focused. Thank you. Mamidnight305 (talk) 16:03, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks @Mamidnight305, I have declined again (without prejudice) and left a comment on what you can do to continue to improve. qcne (talk) 16:07, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Request for Help Creating a Biographical Article: Firas Aljazzar (Qusay Noor)

QusayNoor.Sy (talk) 19:59, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Request for Help Creating a Biographical Article: Firas Aljazzar (Qusay Noor)

Hello,

I would like to request assistance from experienced Wikipedia editors to help create and publish a neutral, well-sourced biographical article about me, Firas Aljazzar, a Syrian journalist and photojournalist. For over a decade, I have worked with several international and regional media organizations including CNN, BBC Arabic, Anadolu Agency, The New Arab, and others, reporting extensively on the Syrian conflict—particularly from Eastern Ghouta and Damascus.

Between 2011 and 2018, I reported under the pseudonym Qusay Noor for safety reasons, due to the dangers of publishing material documenting government actions during the war. I have since publicly revealed my real name and continue to work in journalism.

I have drafted a version of the article written in accordance with Wikipedia’s content and notability guidelines, and I am happy to provide verifiable sources and references to my published work for review.

Here is my personal website, which includes links to published reports, photojournalism, and TV packages: [Insert website link here].

Could someone kindly assist with reviewing the draft and help move this forward toward publication, or advise on next steps for getting the article published properly?

Thank you very much for your time and support.

Best regards, Firas Aljazzar (formerly known as Qusay Noor)

Amble band article

Hi, I'd like to clarify some things about the draft's notability.

1. They clearly meet WP:NBAND criteria number 2, as they have charted in both the UK and Ireland.

2. I have created several musician articles, one of which even passed DYK. The reason for the usage of interviews is because these are often the only sources available for many artists, even those who are obviously notable. It's simply the nature of music journalism nowadays to do interviews over any other kind of feature. wizzito | say hello! 21:07, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

@Wizzito You're completely correct. That was a bad decline on my part, I was focusing purely on criterion 1. I will move to mainspace for you now. qcne (talk) 21:10, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks. wizzito | say hello! 21:11, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Indexing Question

Hi!

Thanks once again for helping with the article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantic_Business_Football_Club). I saw that it has a "no index" tag in it. Is that normal for new articles in mainspace? Rynere (talk) 23:13, 11 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Rynere, new articles are indexed by search engines either after 90 days or if they are reviewed by the New Pages Patrol - whatever is soonest. qcne (talk) 12:27, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

Oh I get it now. Thanks. Rynere (talk) 14:24, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

Article Resubmit

Hello qcne,

Apologies for the previous draft submissions for my article. This is my first go at submitting and I appreciate your patience and attention. I just resubmitted my draft with changes that I hope align a little more with a factual informative approach. I would be happy to make further adjustments if needed. Thank you! Ashleyraeashley (talk) 00:58, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Ashleyraeashley, that does read better tone-wise. But still has some issues:

> "The opening was widely covered in local media, noting that" noted by whom?

> "Media reports noted" noted by whom?

> "the success of House of Eternal Return helped establish Meow Wolf as a prominent name in immersive experiences" source?

> "Commentators credit Meow Wolf’s approach" what commentators?

You can see it's still a bit marketing speak. qcne (talk) 12:29, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Qcne,

Thank you so much for your feedback. I completely understand where you're coming from, and I really appreciate the time you've taken took to help me get this article in a good spot for publish. I’ve made some revisions based on your suggestions, specifically adding reputable third-party sources to support the statements you flagged. I hope these changes align more closely with Wikipedia’s guidelines on verifiability and neutrality.

Here are the updates I made:

Added a citation from Santa Fe New Mexican regarding the opening and lack of guides or paths.

Cited CBS News to support the claim about House of Eternal Return becoming a popular attraction in Santa Fe.

Referenced Artnet News to demonstrate how the success of the exhibit helped Meow Wolf establish itself in the immersive art world.

Added a quote from Los Angeles Times to show how Meow Wolf's approach influenced the trend in large-scale interactive art installations.

I hope these sources help resolve the concerns you raised, and I would be grateful for any further guidance you have. Thanks again for your valuable feedback. Ashleyraeashley (talk) 20:47, 14 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks @Ashleyraeashley. I see it's been submitted for review - I won't review it again as I've reviewed it twice, but some phrases that still stand out to me as not quite written in the voice we expect of a neutral encyclopaedia.

> "all interconnected by secret passageways and portals. Visitors enter through a Victorian style house façade and discover that everyday objects hide surreal destinations, for example, stepping into a refrigerator leads into a day glow forest, and a living room fireplace opens into a glowing crystal"

> "the success of House of Eternal Return helped establish Meow Wolf as a prominent name in immersive experiences"

> "playful environments"

> "Its main entrance looks like a normal Victorian family home, but visitors quickly discover hidden portals to other dimensions" qcne (talk) 07:43, 15 July 2025 (UTC)

Bigpooz post about Paul Robinson

Yes, I used ChatGPT to convert my Word document into a .wikitalk document. Then, after editing, I uploaded the result. Bigpooz (talk) 15:36, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

@Bigpooz There is no such thing as a .wikitalk or .wikitext document. ChatGPT made it up, because AI chatbots often hallucinate. It is impossible to convert a Microsoft Word document into a filetype suitable for Wikipedia - you have to re-create your text in Wikipedia directly.

@Bigpooz because the result is not okay. Is the "draft" that ChatGPT created at User:Bigpooz/Sample page ? It's a completely unsourced biographic article, breaking Wikipedia's #1 core policy of verifiability. ChatGPT cannot write for Wikipedia. qcne (talk) 16:11, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @QusayNoor.Sy. Have a read of Wikipedia:Notability (people). What specific criteria do you think you meet? qcne (talk) 10:02, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

I believe I meet all the criteria, I have attached all the links that prove it, and they are all from reliable sources. QusayNoor.Sy (talk) 11:17, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

@QusayNoor.Sy you meet every criteria? Please don't lie and actually read the policy above, it's impossible for one person to meet every criteria. Try again. qcne (talk) 11:45, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

You just rejected my draft, I don't know since day one you've been trying to ban me from using the platform here. I've read all the terms and conditions here carefully even though my account is new I still read and research here. QusayNoor.Sy (talk) 12:05, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

No one has been trying to ban you. I didn't even reject your draft, merely declined it. qcne (talk) 12:07, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

I have placed more than 80% of the links from reliable and international news sites, and I added some YouTube links. you left the majority of the links, and you placed and told me that YouTube is not a reliable platform. All the links I published are from channel accounts, the first of which is CNN. Do you mean to say that CNN accounts on social media are not reliable? QusayNoor.Sy (talk) 12:09, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

@QusayNoor.Sy None of your sources meet the criteria of significant in-depth coverage of you. qcne (talk) 12:12, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

These are my works that I wrote on these news sites. I also put several diverse links, which are from important media channels in the world that talk about me or share the news that I publish or make statements for, and they also put them on their own news site. Do you need more articles about me than these, and also the other section of links is for my own work?

Hi again! Would you mind looking at my draft. I tried to make all the edits we spoke about. Let me know when you have done so, thanks! Isabelfrye151 (talk) 19:48, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

this is for Draft: Martin Picard Isabelfrye151 (talk) 20:42, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Isabelfrye151. This is looking a lot better! Some feedback:

- you have a bunch of citation errors on references 4 to 14. These will need to be resolved. It looks like you've created a named reference value but haven't actually defined it. I'd recommend converting these to in-line citations using the tutorial at Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1 which means you won't have to make named references.

- Remove all the external links after each of the publications. You can cite them instead, as we don't allow external links in the body of the text per Wikipedia:External links. Likewise, reduce the Externa Links section to just two max appropriate links. qcne (talk) 08:59, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you! I appreciate it.

I will go and fix citations 4-14, I know what happened there, simple fix!

As for the external links in the publications, should I just edit every single citation (like in the ones in 'Research Contributions') and remove the URL? Isabelfrye151 (talk) 16:21, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Yep, you can do that. Or if there is a single publication repository you can cite to at the top, that works too. qcne (talk) 16:38, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Okay! I will do that.

I want to touch base on the other things we spoke about previously to make sure I made those revisions. Let me know if there are more revisions that need to be made in these areas.

1. slim down the article and include on factual encyclopedic relevant information
2. remove promotional/emotional language

Isabelfrye151 (talk) 16:46, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

I still think the Research Contributions section can all be reduced down to just the essentials- if the reader wants to look at the study in depth they can go to it. Maybe a sentence or so max, bullet point form, would work better?

I also think you can get rid of the paragraph at the bottom of Awards and honors, which is non-notable.

Key thing to remember is that Wikipedia isn't hosting his academic biography or academic resume, we're just really interested in the key facts that have been summarised from existing sources. qcne (talk) 17:30, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Okay! I will work on these and reach back out when I'm done. Thank you! Isabelfrye151 (talk) 17:50, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

I actually have one more question: How do I put in images? And I'm guessing these can only be ones found online/have sources of their own? Isabelfrye151 (talk) 17:52, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

@Isabelfrye151 Images are... complicated. Wikimedia Commons (which is where most images are stored) can only host copyright-free images or images with a very specific public domain license. The absolute easiest way to add a photo would be to take a photo using your own camera, then donating the copyright to Wikimedia Commons and uploading it. The vast majority of images are copyrighted and therefore cannot be added to Commons.

Okay I have done that, then used the link it provides me to paste into my draft, but then the images get deleted after? Isabelfrye151 (talk) 18:15, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

ChatGPT

RE: this comment. Man, is that what's going on? I've seen a ton of spam articles recently that are just filled with dead refs. The URLs look legit, but dead on click-through and the article titles are nowhere to be found on those sites. Good lord. Thanks for leaving that note there. Sam Kuru (talk) 14:52, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Yup, the user came into #wikipedia-en-help and confirmed they used ChatGPT to generate references! qcne (talk) 14:56, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Sid Kohli

Evening Qcne - What would you say jumped out in terms of the referencing on this one? Unfortunately, proof of various published A-list interviews conducted by this broadcaster live on official Instagram and LinkedIn links. Any input on how to potentially mitigate this stumbling block would be greatly appreciated. Cheers BroadcastTalent (talk) 21:16, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @BroadcastTalent. The issue is that interviews don't count towards our criteria for inclusion. We're looking for a minimum of three secondary sources not based off interviews with him and not from Star Sports Network, that provide some sort of in-depth critical commentary of Sid as a person and a presenter. Please see Wikipedia:Notability (people) which outlines this in more detail. Your sources did not provide evidence that Sid actually meets our criteria for inclusion. qcne (talk) 21:18, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Huge thanks for the clarification, here are at least three independent and mainstream media sources that clarify his position as a notable TV broadcaster. It must also be noted that he's not only in the public domain at the moment (not least because of Wimbledon 2025) but there's ample evidence to suggest people are actively seeking out his Wikipedia page. References 29, 30, 35 and 41, among others should substantiate this. Linked them below, for easy-access:

Goes without saying these are very well-known mainstream media outlets, independent of both the Star Sports Network and Kohli himself.

Very keen to get your thoughts. Thanks once again BroadcastTalent (talk) 21:40, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

I've looked at all four of those - none really give that significant coverage we're looking for. A few are literally just a mention/credit. We need something transformational: some sort of review, discussion, critical analysis, debate, commentary, etc. The news24online source does that a little bit with the "Who Is Sid Kohli?" section- but it's still very brief. qcne (talk) 21:43, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Noted - with thanks. There's of course ample biographies online including IMDB, as seen here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm15560188/bio/. With that said, if Kohli's the face of Wimbledon on a major TV network, would that not warrant a notable status? Only wondering because he's done it two-consecutive years now and his footprint at this stage, at the very least, would need centralised and transparent information. Let us know, alternatively, there will be sources one could supply I reckon. BroadcastTalent (talk) 21:48, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Unfortunately IMdb isn't a source we can use. The only thing that really matters is if he has been featured in a minimum of three reliable independent secondary sources that provide significant coverage - we have special criteria for creative professionals at Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Creative professionals but I don't think he meets that. As such, we default back to Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria which, using the current sources, he doesn't yet meet. qcne (talk) 21:53, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Will take your word for it, of course. Could this draft be re-reviewed, or be given a second opinion? Only because Kohli's recent notoriety is significant across several metrics, particularly in certain geographies (which is where perhaps the demand comes from) - even if you deem the News24 story to be the only one that meets the notability criteria, while the other 3-4 are credits or a more brief reference to him. Not doubting your take in the slightest, it's just more a case of us being privy to his enhanced mainstream footprint. BroadcastTalent (talk) 21:58, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

Also, quick one, Qcne - a couple external links have also been removed, just for better housekeeping and a cleaner reference list. BroadcastTalent (talk) 22:16, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

@BroadcastTalent It's in the review pile, so will be reviewed in due course. You still have loads of external links to other Wikipedia articles throughout the body of the text: please remove these and convert them to Wikilinks. qcne (talk) 08:54, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Yes of course, will have those corrected imminently. If this is the last bit of interaction we have for now, one must commend your commitment to the highest standards and your professionalism. All the best BroadcastTalent (talk) 11:15, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you - best of luck with the draft. Do let me know if you have any further questions though. qcne (talk) 11:19, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

For what it's worth, I reckon the Wikilinks should now all be in place. Many thanks BroadcastTalent (talk) 11:29, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Almost! I see Michael Strahan, Ravi Shastri, Kiara Advani, Janhvi Kapoor.

Some more bids of feedback: Daily Star is a depreciated source so should not be used. I think you will probably get another decline for the amount of LinkedIn and Instagram and Youtube sources - any way of reducing them (even if you delete the information they verify).

I have also gone ahead and formatted all your references properly for you. qcne (talk) 11:35, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Also, added two Citation needed tags where you have no sources. qcne (talk) 11:36, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Ah, another issue @BroadcastTalent. The three photos you have included in the draft - you've uploaded them all as Own work to Wikimedia Commons. That means you personally hold the copyright to those photos. Is that correct? You personally took the photos? qcne (talk) 11:37, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Indeed - these photographs are wholly owned by ourselves, no third-party publications, agencies and/or photographers involved. BroadcastTalent (talk) 11:43, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Standby for the other changes you've kindly suggested - including a handful of pesky WIkilinks! BroadcastTalent (talk) 11:46, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Alright, this means you have some sort of conflict of interest. Please make the conflict of interest / paid editing disclosure immediately by following the tutorials at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure - failure to do so is a breach of the Wikimedia Terms and Conditions. qcne (talk) 11:52, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Wikilinks should now all be in place; apologies! The Daily Star, too, has been removed as a source - as Manchester Evening News is a worthy substitute. As for the LinkedIn, YouTube and Instagram links, one will look for more third-party links but such is the nature of social media and TV interviews that those links, at times, are the most accessible and verifiable. That said, point taken re Wikipedia's way of assessing sources BroadcastTalent (talk) 11:54, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Very happy to address this - there's no direct conflict of interest and we've done our level best to be as neutral and unbiased as possible. Our main areas of focus is to make information for which there's demand centralised, readily available and transparent. BroadcastTalent (talk) 11:58, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

@BroadcastTalent What is the nature of the conflict of interest? You must have one if you own the copyright to the photos? qcne (talk) 11:59, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

None as such, I'll likely be creating pages for other sports (and entertainment) broadcasters, especially newly-established and some potentially up-and-coming ones. Perhaps more likely, it'll be a case of collating information from the internet for those one has had the chance to watch up close and personal at sports tournaments or major awards events. BroadcastTalent (talk) 12:07, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Additionally, the 2024 image of Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani and Vijay Amritraj alongside Kohli appears extensively in the public domain - which likely means it was used under fair use/fair dealing or was licensed by one of our staff to publicists (unlikely for it to have been a commercial agreement). Worth changing the copyright info on that particular photo? BroadcastTalent (talk) 12:10, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

"One of our staff". One of whose staff? Are you employed by Star Sports Network? A PR Agency? A photographing firm? qcne (talk) 12:11, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

No, not at all. In order to be crystal clear and leave no room for ambiguity: Not employed by the Star Sports Network (or affiliates), not a PR or Photo Agency either. I suppose what one meant by "our staff" was the fact that as I am not Getty, AP, PA or a comparable agency, photographs often change hands at tournaments via WhatsApp groups, sometimes as favours, but more casually than commercially. Said photos then end up getting picked up by various social and mainstream outlets - who simply credit the source and use them, once again, as fair use/ fair dealing. So, there really isn't much meat on the bone here, from a direct conflict-of-interest standpoint. The rest, one will leave up to your discretion, Qcne, and those of your fellow editors, I suppose. BroadcastTalent (talk) 12:21, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Just to clarify the situation, is this account used by a single person, or are multiple people replying?

Regarding fair use, it is very restricted on Wikipedia, and copyright status should be made explicit even if you assume it would be valid under fair use on other platforms. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 12:34, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Very much one person replying from start-to-finish and the same can be said about running this account. If copyright appears to be a stumbling block, one can revisit it and make it Wikipedia-compliant of course. BroadcastTalent (talk) 12:39, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Also, to @Qcne's point - they're rightly pointed that the citations need more mainstream media sources. Given Kohli's recent rise - I would imagine that's a matter of when, not if, those are made public - which should hopefully get this article in a publish-worthy state in the coming weeks. As for myself, that's not a concern as this piece of work isn't time sensitive and/or commercially driven. BroadcastTalent (talk) 12:45, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

I think we need to clarify some things here.

Of the three images in the draft, you marked them as Own work. Two have the note "screenshot", and one was taken by a Sony ILME-FX30 camera.

File:Sid Kohli presenting Wimbledon 2025 on Star Sports.jpg - Wikipedia where did this image come from?

File:(L-R) Sid Kohil, Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani, Vijay Amritraj.jpg - Wikipedia where did this image come from?

File:Sid Kohli x Virat Kohli - Wimbledon.jpg - Wikipedia did you take this photograph with your Sony camera? qcne (talk) 12:45, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Sure: The first is a still from a feed, which was subsequently edited by myself - please clarify if "own work" does not fit the appropriate criteria.

The second image (L-R) was a photo that was forwarded by myself, this may well be a copy and not the original file.

The third image was taken using the camera of a colleague, effectively commissioned by myself, and subsequently edited and published.

Full-disclosure - there may well be gaps in one's understanding of image copyright guidelines on Wikipedia, in which case these images could be taken down, and re-uploaded using the correct (and accurate) labels. How would you suggest one best proceed?

In any case, this particular article doesn't look like it'll see the light of day anytime soon. That said, best practice and meeting high editorial/compliance standards is incredibly important (even to myself) so any help here would go a long way. BroadcastTalent (talk) 13:05, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Stills from feeds do not count as "own work" – the copyright is most likely held by the news agency who published the feed, and they are the ones able to release it under an appropriate source. Without explicit indication from their side, you should assume that it is connected.

You are saying that the second image was "forwarded" by yourself. If you haven't taken the photo and only copied it, you don't own the copyright for it either.

For the third, "effectively commissioned" doesn't mean you own the copyright if the commission wasn't explicitly written, although you can ask your colleague to release it under an appropriate license.

Sadly, this isn't just a matter of reuploading images under the correct label – Wikipedia usually can't accept copyrighted images that haven't been released under a free license, and, if you are not the copyright holder (which is at least the case for the first two), they simply can't be used here. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 13:10, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Noted - with thanks, Enby. In that case, would images from the subject's socials be a better course of action? I can touch base and seek their consent. One of these photos has been used by several media outlets crediting his socials. BroadcastTalent (talk) 13:13, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

The person would have to explicitly upload the photo themselves and release copyright to allow us to host them. They would be giving anyone in the world a license to reuse and remix the photo for any reason including for commercial purposes: quite often subjects do not want that so will not release the copyright.

I still think you have some sort of conflict of interest here. You keep mentioning colleagues and plural us. Does the company you work for work with Sid and/or other sports broadcasters in any way? qcne (talk) 13:16, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Also noting that the license is owned by the photographer, not the subject. This page has more information on what to do. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 13:17, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks - will take a proper look through! BroadcastTalent (talk) 13:24, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

In that case, this has clearly been a misstep our end. And excuse the use of the royal we (or our), here, Qcne. It's a habit one's developed over time (annoyingly so). And rest assured, if concealing facts was the intention then one's command over the language is solid enough to substitute any or all we/us/ours with a simple I. No commercial ties with Sid - and based on one's performance trying to get this article published - I'm clearly not the "man/woman/etc" for this job, it would seem. I'm a massive broadcast enthusiast though, especially television sport and hopefully my subsequent submissions will reflect that. Once again, I appreciate your patience and consideration here. You live and you learn. All the best once again - and who knows, we may will liaise again going forward. Enjoy the weekend BroadcastTalent (talk) 13:24, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Draft Article

Hey @Qcne,

I need help on a source assessment table of a draft article of an artist Draft:NLN (rapper). Cause I feel like this artist does have little bit of like well-known source in Canada to me. But it already has been declined but I feel like I need other perspective from an other Wikipedia user in the talk page of it. 2601:201:8401:EBA0:51B3:7A50:99FE:801B (talk) 23:50, 18 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi IP editor. Your draft has quite a few interview sources, which mean they're not independent of NLN. Do you have three sources which are analysis/discussion/review/commentary of him which are not based fully on interviews? qcne (talk) 08:53, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

Another pass at my article

Hi @Qcne - I am wondering if you can take a look at my revisions and tell me what you think? You declined it in June, I made several revisions and submitted it several days ago but haven't received any feedback yet. Thank you!

Draft:Robert O. Carr Shaysusan (talk) 20:05, 21 July 2025 (UTC)

@Shaysusan Looks like it was declined again today. What would you say are the three best sources that each meet Wikipedia:42? qcne (talk) 08:54, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Qcne - is this what you mean? I think these three sources meet Wikipedia:42 the best.

1. This Forbes article: Aziz, Afdhel. "The Power Of Paying It Forward: How Bob Carr Turned Gratitude Into $100 Million Of Generational
2. This press release from the White House: "President Obama Announces More Key Administration Posts". whitehouse.gov.
3. This article from Business Insider: Feloni, Richard (Feb 28, 2016). "A CEO shares the surprising lesson he learned from selling his company for $4 billion". Business Insider.

Shaysusan (talk) 17:25, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Shaysusan.

1. Unfortunately Forbes is an unreliable sources: it's just a blog hosted by Forbes. See Wikipedia:FORBESCON.
2. The WH is a press release, and we don't consider press releases independent sources. There also isn't any significant coverage of Robert on that press release.
3. The BI is an average source: it's mostly an interview with Carr, so not independent. IT has a little bit of critical analysis.

We have maybe one average source, but the other two aren't any use - sorry. We're really looking for three strong sources. qcne (talk) 15:21, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you so much for that insight. What about these three sources:

• Porter, Madison (4 Nov 2023). "Give Something Back scholarship changed the life of a student at ISU". WEEK-TV. Retrieved 4 Nov 2023.
• Clark, Adam (June 29, 2015). "At cost of $20M, N.J. Man wants to put 1,000 kids through college". NJ.com. Retrieved June 29, 2015.
• Francis, Enjoy (June 26, 2019). “Nonprofit surprises teens in foster care with college scholarships”. ABC News. Retrieved June 26, 2019.

Also, the sources you stated are unreliable (Forbes and the WH press release), should I delete those?

Thank you for your help! Shaysusan (talk) 17:51, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Those three sources are okay - not great, not terrible. Looking at them in detail you'll see there is a lot of quotes and interviews from Carr, so it's mostly him talking about himself. Wikipedia isn't interested in that: we're interested in what other people have to say about Carr. That said, they all have a little bit of journalistic analysis in them, so I would say they straddle the line between being independent or not.

Remove the Forbes source, the WH press release can stay for now. qcne (talk) 18:02, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you, you are a huge help. I'll do that and resubmit and see what happens. Shaysusan (talk) 18:04, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

claudette groenendaal article

Hello, thank you for your quick reviews. However, I'm confused by the "large language model" defects. I am a high school English teacher, so I find it a little funny that I'm getting accused of using ChatGPT like I've done with so many of my students ;). I tried to take out promotional language (such as use of the word "trailblazer") in my first draft, and more recently tried to tone down phrases like "honored with," though these terms are fairly accurate. I also eliminated a paraphrasing from my first draft ("reversed the order of finish") that I accidentally cribbed from one of the articles cited. Besides that, I'm pretty sure I have a reference for every accomplishment. Is it possible you can point me to more specific defects? Thank you for your time, Christian Cushing-murray English teacher, Century High School, Santa Ana, CA Us183sub4 (talk) 22:12, 22 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Us183sub4.

I could tell you used ChatGPT because two of your sources have "?utm_source=chatgpt.com" in the URL - which means they were sources generated by ChatGPT.

Thanks for removing any promotional phrases in the body of the text.

Could you go through your 15 sources and, especially for the two generated by ChatGPT, ensure they are correct and valid and verify the information you are citing.

Thanks qcne (talk) 08:23, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello again--thanks for the explanation. I didn't understand that the ChatGPT was in the sources, not the body of the article itself. I think I corrected the sources, though I only saw one with ChatGPT. Maybe I'm still missing one?

Thanks,

Christian Us183sub4 (talk) 13:18, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks @Us183sub4. I removed the other while I was reformatting your references. I am not fully convinced this person meets Wikipedia:Notability (sports) so I would have a read of that guidance and make any improvements to the sourcing you can. qcne (talk) 14:21, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you again for your quick reply. The notability category seems a little harder to define for me (this is my first attempt at an article). I've seen other articles on female track athletes (such as Sarah Thorsett and Mary Jayne Harrelson) who seem equally or less notable than Claudette Groenendaal, who won more national titles, more national rankings, and had a better international career, besides being among the best ever NCAA athletes in her event. I added one more source/accomplishment, the 9th U.S. woman under 4:30 in the mile, the relative equivalent (actually more difficult) of sub-4 miles for men. Other than that, I am at your mercy as far as notability.

Either way, thank you for your instruction and time,

Christian Cushing-murray Us183sub4 (talk) 18:38, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Us183sub4. Sorry, I missed this reply. Looking at your resubmitted draft: I still have some concerns about some of the language. Stuff like "to their first ever women’s", "earned a place", "recognized with", are all a bit too emotive for Wikipedia.

The notability may be met, but I would still recommend tightening up the language / prose. qcne (talk) 18:05, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

I deleted "ever"--it was their first, so I assume that's ok? For collegiate track fans, Oregon is the premiere college for distance running, men's and women's, and their stadium/city has earned the nickname "Tracktown USA," hosting more national championships than any other U.S. city. I changed "earned a place" to just "was placed"; I changed "recognized with" to "made the" all-time relay team--hope these work? Thank you so much for your help,

  • Draft:Tableo (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Clarification on Notability (WP:GNG)

Thank you for reviewing this draft.

I'd like to provide clarification on how Tableo meets Wikipedia's General Notability Guideline (WP:GNG), based on independent, reliable, and non-trivial coverage:

• Times of Malta – [Study reveals how Maltese and tourists differ in their restaurant habits](https://timesofmalta.com/article/study-reveals-maltese-tourists-differ-restaurant-habits.1106595): Tableo is cited as the data source behind a national-level hospitality study involving 800 restaurants, commissioned by a major local authority. This is significant editorial coverage in a respected newspaper.
• Times of Malta – [Tableo partners with MICHELIN Guide](https://timesofmalta.com/article/local-company-tableo-partners-michelin-guide-a2.1021243)
• MaltaToday – [Tableo launches free restaurant reservation system](https://www.maltatoday.com.mt/gourmet/restaurants/124673/tableo_launches_free_restaurant_reservation_system)
• Verdict Foodservice – [Tableo and TripAdvisor partner on direct bookings](https://www.verdictfoodservice.com/news/tableo-tripadvisor-restaurant-booking/)

These articles offer substantial, independent coverage of Tableo’s activities, industry relevance, and collaborations — sufficient to establish notability per WP:GNG.

Happy to improve the draft further if needed.

Tamara Naudi at Tableo (talk) 10:47, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Tamara Naudi at Tableo. None of those sources provide Wikipedia:CORPDEPTH. The second source is a Sponsored article! Are you using ChatGPT or another LLM to advice you on Wikipedia policy? It is wrong, if so. qcne (talk) 10:51, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

As a fellow reviewer I also have similar concerns. These sources, while they do discuss Tableo, do not seem especially independent of the company. -- Reconrabbit 10:53, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

I stand corrected. If I had to remove the ones that state "sponsored" article - would it be approved? Are sources like sourcefoorge and capterra considered as valid? Tamara Naudi at Tableo (talk) 11:06, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

While I was creating drafts for a few villages, I came across Draft:Sirihira, which is a notable village located under Sevapuri tehsil in Varanasi district, Uttar Pradesh. It has recently drawn attention as a place being visited by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, adding to its prominence. This visit highlights the region's growing developmental and cultural significance.

@Novaclia Feel free to submit for review by editing out the reject notice. But don't include "This visit highlights the region's growing developmental and cultural significance." because that's just what ChatGPT told you to write. qcne (talk) 12:15, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

How to send for review again? shall I create a new draft for it? Novaclia (talk) 12:45, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

I tried to remove " Reject Notice "

It says " As an anti-abuse measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit. Please try again in a few minutes.

Hi qcne, can you share infobox format for Game ( apps ) Novaclia (talk) 12:53, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Template:Infobox video game - Wikipedia qcne (talk) 12:56, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Can you suggest some good Wikipedia pages about games that I can use as references to start with Novaclia (talk) 13:00, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

I would recommend Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games which may have some good examples. qcne (talk) 13:02, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for suggesting . Novaclia (talk) 13:06, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Draft:Mikhail Ancharov - Wikipedia

Hello. This is my first draft and this is translation from Ukranian: Draft:Mikhail Ancharov - Wikipedia I can add more links, but the titles are all in Russian, and the information provided is 1 link, this is normal.

Original here Анчаров Михайло Леонідович — Вікіпедія How can I add this draft as English version? You can use Google Translator as I have changed almost nothing. AlexVasilevInfo (talk) 17:30, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @AlexVasilevInfo. The English Wikipedia has different requirements from the Ukrainian Wikipedia: they are seperate projects. We require usually a minimum of three strong sources that each meet this criteria. Non-English language sources are fine to use. qcne (talk) 17:32, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

I have added sources from other language versions, his famous book and a link to his web page. AlexVasilevInfo (talk) 18:23, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Great, thank you. qcne (talk) 18:25, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

The problem with other sources listed in other language versions of the page is that they link to each other. At the same time, the main sources I listed contain lists of literature that does not have an electronic version and is only available in central libraries or private collections. This is literature from the 1930s to the 1990s.

What should I do next? AlexVasilevInfo (talk) 15:24, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

We can accept offline sources: the only requirement for a source is that it is published, reliable, and somehow accessible (even if it's not very easy to access).

What we're looking for is a minimum of three strong sources that each meet this criteria, that discuss Mikhail and his work. Pinging @Reading Beans who declined it last. qcne (talk) 15:38, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

I’m fine with your judgment. I usually prefer a set of fresh eyes on articles I decline. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 19:46, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

I can add links to articles on Russian library websites and Russian critics' blogs. But there's a lot of politics and propaganda there. I wouldn't want to get involved with that. AlexVasilevInfo (talk) 20:57, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

I do not understand the issue with the wording

Appreciate you for reviewing my draft. I’m a bit unclear about the specific concerns you raised regarding the wording. You mentioned that it appears to be generated by an AI, but I’ve carefully avoided promotional language, biased terms or anything resembling boilerplate text. Could you please clarify which parts exactly give that impression? I'm happy to make changes and save this important topic since there isn’t an article about it yet. Majid8097 (talk) 13:25, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Majid8097. The phrase "As of the latest available information, Somalia does not maintain a formal or operational air defense system." looked to be straight out of a chatbot's Knowledge cutoff. Was this written with ChatGPT at all? qcne (talk) 17:22, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for letting me know. I didn’t use a chatbot I wrote that myself based on what I found in public reports almost like saying the exact same words as they state(in that paragraph only). I get it might sound a bit generic but I'll fix that. Majid8097 (talk) 19:24, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Fair enough, feel free to re-submit. :) qcne (talk) 21:31, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Speculation about peoples' mental state

Draft:Mike Amon-Kwafo

Hello there. I wrote a draft about my dad with the assistance of ChatGPT. I stated beneath that I had a conflict of interest. Perhaps I made some mistakes which got it declined. Could you help me edit the draft for it to be published into an article on Wikipedia? Metamender (talk) 18:33, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Metamender. Firstly, please do not use ChatGPT to create drafts. Have a read of Wikipedia:Large language models to understand why.

Wikipedia only hosts articles of people who meet our "notability" criteria, which can be thought of as evidence the person has been noted in multiple, reliable, independent published sources in a significant, in-depth way. Wikipedia article of a living person also must have in-line citations to a reliable published source for every single biographic statement.

1. Read our notability criteria for inclusion here: Wikipedia:Notability (people);
2. Read our policy on biographies of living people here: Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons;
3. Read our verifiability policy here: Wikipedia:Verifiability;
4. And finally, see the referencing tutorial at Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/1.

Your draft will require:

1. Evidence that this person meets our notability criteria.
2. A complete re-write to remove any trace of ChatGPT-generated prose;
3. In-line citations for every piece of biographic information from a reliable published source;
4. With a Reference List which will be automatically generated for you if you follow the above tutorial.

Hope that helps, but let me know if you have any more questions. qcne (talk) 18:53, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. @Qcne Metamender (talk) 18:59, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Iam new user for wikipedia

Could you please tell me what the important links that i can add to make my article accepted please. Thank you very much for your efforts. MogeebM (talk) 03:37, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

Hi @MogeebM. I strongly suggest you read Help:Your first article. Let me know if you have any specific questions, though. qcne (talk) 11:58, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
