Need help with making an entry for American Fashion Podcast

[edit]

I previously created a page tracking all the episodes of American Fashion Podcast, but it was deleted "because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic." I spent several hours figuring out how to post and inputting all the information, so it was really frustrating to have it deleted. Most of what I compiled did get rebuilt as the Episodes List page on the AFP site.

That was several months ago, and the show is now up past 60 episodes with a ton of interviews with both famous designers and lesser known behind the scenes artists, entrepreneurs, and educators. There is now press coverage from Harper's Bazaar, Huffington Post, Bustle, American Manufacturing, and Put This On.

I'm admittedly not very good at editing Wikipedia, the complex syntax really throws me. I would like to get some help in putting it together again, but right this time. added by Fashiontechguru 9pm EST, 22 August 2015, updated 11:30am on 23 August 2015

Assessment of Farid Chenoune

[edit]

Could someone please assess this stub for

  1. whether it is a Start-article yet, and
  2. how important this is to your project.

Thank you in advance. Bearian (talk) 00:48, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I assessed it as a Start, but it still needs assessing as to importance. Bearian (talk) 19:34, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This article has a major issue with defining the house in terms of its contituity and whether the original house is different or the same as the 2014-founded house. Zanahary 03:21, 18 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Kayali

[edit]

Hello! On behalf of Kayali, I have drafted a Wikipedia article for the cosmetics company at Draft:Kayali (company). The business was launched by Huda Kattan and Mona Kattan under Huda Beauty but now operates independently (owned by Mona and General Atlantic). The Huda Kattan, Mona Kattan, and Huda Beauty articles all mention Kayali; the General Atlantic article does not but could probably use an update to mention co-ownership. Additionally, I've identified a few other Wikipedia pages that could mention Kayali if the draft was taken live.

I've tried getting the article placed via Articles for Creation, but the draft has been declined twice. The first time, it was declined for having too much information about products, which has since been removed. After two editors confirmed their concerns were addressed, I resubmitted the draft for review. This time, the draft was declined for notability purposes, despite having 20+ Wikipedia-appropriate sources that I think demonstrate sustained interest in the business over 7 years. I think the draft demonstrates notability and serves as an appropriate fork of the Huda Kattan, Mona Kattan, and Huda Beauty articles, but so far editors don't seem to agree.

Before I go the route of submitting individual edit requests to update the Huda Kattan, Mona Kattan, and Huda Beauty entries with claims about Kayali, I was hoping to get more editor feedback regarding content appropriateness and notability, if any WikiProject Fashion members are interested in weighing in on the Talk page discussions. I'm posting similar requests for feedback at WikiProjects Companies and United Arab Emirates.
