Zsmithzdlgs2 (talk) 09:34, 24 November 2016 (UTC) I'm confused as to why this article was rejected. A less substantial, and less well-sourced, version of it already exists, and has been accepted, on the Italian Wikipedia. This article uses one of the same sources I used, which in my article was rejected as insufficiently authoritative. Nesbett, being an English composer, is more notable to English readers than he is to Italians, so if the Italian article was accepted then why was mine (which was more relevant and better-referenced) rejected? If someone can explain the difference in policy regarding the English and Italian Wikipedias' different standards for notability and different definitions of a valid source, that would be great, as I currently can't understand it.[reply]

Hello, Zsmith. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. I see that you have already discussed this matter with the reviewer who declined your submission. If we can be of any other help, please let us know. NewYorkActuary (talk) 16:36, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Zsmithzdlgs2, I just want to point out that language is not a factor at all in evaluating the notability of a subject. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 17:36, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My own opinion is that I would have accepted, because I think that anyone who was written about five hundred years ago and about whom the writing survives is notable. That is my opinion. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:26, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Chenzw,

Thank you for you time. I am new here and to my disappointment my article was declined. Although I tried to write it according to Wikipedia rules. Articles is written from a neutral point of view. The sources used are completely independent. You suggested to add more reliable sources. I did it after reading Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners. But I am afraid that I still don't understand why my sources are not reliable. Could you, please, clarify for me what's wrong with them. And perhaps now when I have added one it would be enough.

Best, May!

I'm having trouble finding my draft articles. Is there a quick link to go to my drafts and submissions? Thanks! Mstrudwick (talk) 17:57, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, M. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. A technical question such as this should be posed either at the general Help Desk or at WP:Teahouse. But I can offer a possibility ... . You activated your account more than two years ago, but your contribution history only shows the recent activity on the Scoots Handplanes draft. If you had created other drafts two years ago, they have probably been deleted by now (generally, inactive drafts are deleted after six months). I hope this was helpful.

I have just created a new article and I would like to include an information box on the right side of the article, showing date founded, key people etc. Please can you advise how I go about doing this? I have tried to find out but I'm a bit confused!! Thank you!

Hello, Elizabeth. Thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. You probably want to take a look at the instructions at {{infobox company}}. While you're at it, also take a look at {{cite web}}. I noticed that the references in your draft are unformatted, and the 'cite web' template will be needed to correct that. I hope this was helpful.
