05:19:54, 11 April 2016 review of submission by Dmacfady

[edit]


Dear Bradv/Wiki Editors Thanks for looking at the article. Could I please ask what constitutes peacock terms in the article? I have no professional connection to the artist in question and remain very uncertain of which terms are not proper. Without a list of them, I'll be guessing forever. Thanks very much for your expert insight. Once again, I would really appreciate a list, otherwise I'll remove the text from Wikipedia, since it doesn't seem proper in this context.I've already been trying for two months to submit two paragraphs. If we're talking about the "stature" of the newspapers quoted, the paper-based publication industry in Ukraine, Georgia, etc was decimated after the end of the Soviet system––and all publication subsidies ended. All news is therefore online and in venues we might in the West take to be "fleeting." I'm presuming the reviewers know the languages and social issues at hand, so that, I hope, is not the matter. I take, as suggested, the key issue to be inappropriate language, hence my initial query. I would be extremely grateful for detailed help.

[edit]

Hi, i'm trying to submit an article for a very good and quite famous composer here in the UK, Gavin Higgins. I'm new to Wiki and followed all the rules when siting references and creating the article, however, it has now been refused twice due to 'notability issues'. This can't be right surely? He's won international awards, all cited and referenced, and had commissions from some of the World's leading ensembles and Orchestras, also referenced.

Could you please shed some light on this? Thanks.

I can't find the page in your current IP's contributions log so please give us a link to the draft about Higgins so that we can give you proper advice. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 10:49, 11 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Please can someone help? The page 'House of Marbles' has been declined... This is not for the purposes of propoganda but should have a page as it is a visitor attraction and site of historical interest in Devon. I have re-written the article to try to meet the requirements stated but it has still been declined! I need a bit more guidance on how this can be fixed if anyone is able to help please?

You can see the draft at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:House_of_Marbles

Many Thanks,

Katy
