Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by NoobThreePointOh were:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

• in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
• reliable
• secondary
• independent of the subject
  

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Fatimid Wars in Sijilmassa and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Wikiknight7! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself!

Hello, I'm R Prazeres. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Banu Ammar, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. R Prazeres (talk) 17:29, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Banu Ammar. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. R Prazeres (talk) 18:29, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wikiknight7, can you please make sure that you have reviewed Wikipedia:Notability? You have been rapidly creating a large number of articles about battles, but some of them may not satisfy that criteria, which means they could be deleted later. If a battle or siege is mentioned only briefly in references without providing many details about the battle itself, then it most likely does not need its own article. Instead, it could be summarized in an already-existing article (which is also more likely to be seen by readers).

Aside from that, please also remember to provide page numbers in your citations: most of the citations in your articles do not do this. Even when you provide a link (which is still very helpful), those links may become dead over time and then it becomes difficult to verify what the sources say without knowing which page was consulted.

Let me know if you have any questions about this. Thanks, R Prazeres (talk) 03:05, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

hello @R Prazeres, thank you for the advice, my goal from creating those pages is to fill up the Taifa age battles since it was so empty I can barely see 2 or 3 articles, I really did not see the Wikipedia:Notability I apologize, yes it's true that some of my articles do not include many details about the battles, but the Taifa period battles are really limited in details, most Historians talk about the conflict between two kings or more and then the place of it, without that much detailing, am asking you if I can rewrite those articles in the same writing of the Battle of Cabra or Zirid conquest of Málaga since both are from the same period and aren't detailed, maybe removing the "Background-Battle-Aftermath" sections would be useful, but I have noticed that the Siege of Granada (1018) have those sections but not detailed, same as my articles.

About citation, am new here i will make sure to learn about doing what you provided in order to make articles much better.

Thanks Wikiknight7 (talk) 10:52, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reading and acknowledging feedback. Also, to be clear: you weren't doing anything bad, this is just a general instruction so that you spend your time on what's most important and what's most likely to remain a useful part of Wikipedia. Of course, it's normal that some articles are small and we don't expect every new article to be large or exhaustive. As long as there is more information to find in published sources, then articles can still be improved and expanded in the future. Happy editing, R Prazeres (talk) 21:55, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
