Hello Marcus,

Suggestions noted. Can you just tell me what seemed like fluff to you so that I can remove it?

Thanks. DKas321 (talk) 09:35, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @DKas321, in my opinion, everything south of "Writing & Organizational Techniques" is not encyclopedic. I wasn't going to delete it for you because you have references in there, but you need to ensure that you are citing to references that demonstrate the subject of your draft article (here, a specific type of essay) talk about the subject in depth and are secondary to any purpose the author or publisher of the work might have, such that it sufficiently demonstrates the subject of the article is notable, a requirement for any article on the project. Again, this is my opinion, but university instructional material on "how to write" a compare and contrast might not be sufficient in demonstrating WP:Notability, but I would concede other editors might differ on this opinion.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. Cheers, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 13:32, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for all your feedback on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Ronalds_Gonzalez We would really appreciate if you can take a look at it now and check if now we comply with your recommendations. The recommendations were the following: Does not presently appear to meet WP:NPROF. Written in a promotional tone, not using objective and descriptive language. WP:Bare URLs require cleanup, see WP:REFB for more information. microbiologyMarcus [petri dish·growths] 19:45, 12 June 2024 (UTC) Marquezronald (talk) 16:11, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Marquezronald, who is "we"? microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 16:50, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @microbiologyMarcus me and a friend from Venezuela Daniel Calderon (who studied with Ronalds Gonzalez), We believe that Ronalds Gonzalez is one of the Venezuelans that can be highlighted as one of the top researchers in biomaterials from our country. I am from Universidad de Los Andes, the same University where Ronalds Gonzalez graduated. Marquezronald (talk) 17:02, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would you please answer to our previous question? "We would really appreciate if you can take a look at it now and check if now we comply with your recommendations." Marquezronald (talk) 17:03, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Marquezronald you and your friend need to both make your own unique account as this account is a violation of our WP:SHAREDACCOUNT policy. microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 17:07, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sharing an account, after you asked for more information, I had to ask Daniel Calderon other details (who knows him), for example city of birth, etc. I would really appreciate it if you could take a look at my answer to your recommendations. "The recommendations were the following: Does not presently appear to meet WP:NPROF. Written in a promotional tone, not using objective and descriptive language. WP:Bare URLs require cleanup, see WP:REFB for more information." Marquezronald (talk) 17:11, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Marquezronald have you reviewed WP:NPROF and do you believe your draft article currently demonstrates that the subject satisfies one of the criteria? Second, do you have proper citations to previously published sources for the personal information you have given above. Personal knowledge is both WP:OR and, given the subject, a violation of our WP:BLP policy if you do not have proper WP:V for that information. microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 18:15, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Some of them are worth reviewing, and some of them are not worth reviewing. Thanks for reviewing them. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:28, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Robert McClenon: Very cryptic, but always happy to help. I definitely find reviewing good, quality articles more rewarding but sometimes you gotta go through the clean-up categories as well. I know I appreciated when someone cleaned up my first draft.

Cheers, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 21:09, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What happened is that you and User:KylieTastic and I had a race with the items for review in user space, and some of them were crud. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:43, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MicrobiologyMarcus, thanks for your work on Wikipedia.

I wrote the Stefan Pastine draft entry you reviewed and rejected today. I added several external citations (SBIR/NSF, MIT Technology Review, Simems Gamesa Report). I'm just wondering whether those aren't sufficient as credible outside sources and/or if you feel like there needs to be more of them?

Thanks again

SC Seamus Costello (talk) 18:24, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Seamus Costello, a small clarification: I didn't reject your draft, I declined it. As such, you are encouraged to make the necessary changes required for a mainspace article before resubmitting. At the top of the draft, the individualised instructions I left were "Inappropriate external links in text. See WP:REFB to understand how to convert these to inline citations." You'll notice that in the draft article, there are links that are not formatted as citations but external links. These will need to be corrected. Cheers, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 18:28, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Appreciate that @MicrobiologyMarcus. Ill reformat those links.

Best

Seamus Costello Seamus Costello (talk) 18:35, 17 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw this article moved into mainspace. Regardless of its quality, it's an unattributed copy of the same article on the Ukrainian wiki run through Google Translate (though it is written by the same user), so it may need more than basic cleanup. Reconrabbit 16:40, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Reconrabbit, I've considerably WP:STUB-ified the article. It cited to a product listing and was mostly health benefits and other promotional content. I'm in the process of a WP:BEFORE to determine if the topic meets WP:N or if it should proceed to the next step... You aren't familiar with the topic at all, are you? Any opinion on its notability? microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 16:43, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am of the opinion that it is in the same boat as many food and drink topics - it may be independently notable, maybe in its native language, but good luck finding independent sources on its notability; all you will find are product listings. Maybe it deserves a spot on List of Chinese teas, where you will find other products with similar issues, e.g., Jin Jun Mei tea. Reconrabbit 16:48, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Reconrabbit: fair enough. Seems to be lots of product listings, nothing too encyclopedic in any BEFORE. Suppose the article is fine as is now without any of the frivolous claims and hopefully can be cleanup with the existing tags. microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 16:51, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MicrobiologyMarcus thanks for checking. I was initially just confused at the move history, glad it was put in an acceptable state. Reconrabbit 16:56, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In regards to the unattributed translation, I've left {{uw-translation}} on the author's talk page. Thanks for catching that! microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 16:46, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just noticed that it was the other way around - the article was just translated to the Ukrainian wikipedia today, and their userpage there already has {{Uw-translation}} from January. Reconrabbit 16:49, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I accidentally made two pages about it, please if you can delete the first one and only review this one. Jackhanma69 (talk) 20:03, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jackhanma69, not a problem. Given that the page is now in the correct location and the old page has been corrected, I have removed the declination from the AfC history and done some minor copy editing to the draft while it awaits further review. Cheers, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 20:09, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for your cooperation and assistance :) Jackhanma69 (talk) 20:13, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thanks I appreciate your feedback. Please is there anyway I can prevent the page from deletion? 102.89.22.58 (talk) 21:52, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Editors or authors of pages marked for speedy deletion may contest the speedy deletion by leaving remarks arguing against the deletion on the articles talk page. microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 17:22, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi microbiologyMarcus, You left a note on my Stefan Pastine entry suggesting that the independent citations weren't enough in number. I added another, there are now 4 independent media refs in there.

Alexaner Tulio from C&EN

Will Mathis From Bloomberg

James O Donnell from MITTR

Mike Buetow from Printed Circuit Design & Fab.

Is that sufficient, I can add some others but from my POV those cover the coverage.

Thanks again for you wiki efforts. Seamus Costello (talk) 20:26, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Seamus Costello, did you note my comment regarding WP:External links? At present, your draft still has two inline with the text. My suggestion would be to resolve those as it is likely to be declined again on that basis, but if you feel it sufficient, you draft has been submitted for review. At the time time of writing, the AFC submission template says Review waiting, please be patient. This may take 3 months or more, since drafts are reviewed in no specific order. There are 3,239 pending submissions waiting for review.

Personally, I don't believe WP:Notability has been demonstrated and the article still takes a WP:Promotional tone. Do you have any relevant WP:COI declarations that you need to disclose in accordance with the Wikimedia Foundation's Term's of Use? See WP:PAID. It's fine if you do, these just need to be disclosed on your user page, and you are doing the correct thing by creating the draft article through the WP:AfC process.

I'd suggest you familiarise yourself with the relevant Wikipedia policy, as writing a draft article can be a difficult task for a new editor. See the guidance at WP:THREE as a good place to start

Kindly, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 20:41, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the clean up of my draft. Any insights you could share regarding what I may need to add? Your input would be appreciated !

Mgenzac (talk) 00:04, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Mgenzac: as my concerns with the declination related to WP:Notability, try to demonstrate coverage of the subject in independent and reliable sources. Take a look at one of the WP:SNG such as WP:PRODUCER as it relates to the subject, to see what might be used to satisfy our notability requirement for articles on the project. You might also find the essay WP:THREE helpful. Cheers, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 00:17, 26 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MicrobiologyMarcus - Would you kindly take a look at the amended draft with new primary sources added? Really appreciate it. Rajeevstkt (talk) 13:17, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rajeevstkt, I have resubmitted your article on your behalf. Please be patient while a reviewer gets a chance to review the draft article. I will review it for the improvments I suggested if I get the chance. Thanks, microbiologyMarcus ^{[petri dish·growths]} 13:22, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks 185.26.153.26 (talk) 13:24, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
