You may want to have a look at our guideline on conflicts of interest; writing an autobiography is strongly discouraged. Your draft doesn't cite any reliable third-party sources such as newspaper articles or reviews in reputable music magazines. Without such sources we cannot accept the draft. Furthermore you have multiple copies of the draft on the page; you should remove all but one to avoid confusion. Huon (talk) 17:02, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Can you please explain to me why my article was not accepted for creation?

My problem is quite straightforward - I own a website called 'www.scoutyoursport.com', for which I would like to create a Wikipedia page. You seem to be making this process extremely convoluted and difficult and redirecting me to a different page every time I have a query.

Can you please give me the step-by-step layout of how I should proceed to create my page called 'Scout Your Sport' so that I don't have to keep facing rejection from Wikipedia and it's representatives?

Thank You.

Regards,

Dipen Arya

You mean Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Scout Your Sport? Short answer is you don't. First the subject does not appear to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines, see WP:WEB; second, even if it did, you are strongly advised not to write it as you have an insurmountable conflict of interest.--ukexpat (talk) 16:25, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I submitted a photo for this page and I had the rights owner of the photo submit their permission. Will the photo be added once it has gone through the review? I have submitted this page for review as of today but just want to make sure that the photo and the page get connected again. Please let me know if I need to do something else.

No, because all you appear to have done is add a link to an image located somewhere on the internet. For an image to display on Wikipedia it must either be uploaded directly to Wikipedia (if the image is Non-free but there is a legitimate claim of fair use) or uploaded to Wikimedia commons if it's free (not copyrighted) or compatibly licensed. Try Files for upload. Pol430 talk to me 19:14, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Once an article is submitted to be published, how long does it take for the article to become published? Juliana172.4.209.254 (talk) 21:51, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Re: Review of Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Prime Minister's Science Prizes (2)

My creation of a new talk page titled: Prime Minister's Science Prizes was declined by Dodger67 with the following answer:

Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Prime Minister's Prizes for Science instead.

Dodger67 is getting the Prizes mixed up with the Prime Minister's Prizes for Science - which are the annual AUSTRALIAN prizes. I am writing about the NEW ZEALAND annual prizes, the Prime Minister's Science Prizes. They have different names, and are run in DIFFERENT countries. The names are similar, granted, but NOT IDENTICAL. Can you please review and allow the talk to be published on Wikipedia.

Thank you.Leaky55 (talk) 23:33, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your article should have contained an "about" tag. I added one for you. I noticed that you do not have any inline citations, and I had difficulty verifying some of the statements. You will have to resubmit. Thanks for your contributiion. Wikfr (talk) 01:29, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
