Question from SarahHunnings24 on Draft:Currensea (14:12, 29 July 2024)

Hello, I have recently posted three questions that I need replies to, if you could answer at your earliest convenience? Thanks --SarahHunnings24 (talk) 14:12, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi @SarahHunnings24 - the notability criteria for companies are set out here: WP:NCORP; I still see a lot of material which appears to be the result of press releases and self-publications. The best thing to do is identify three independent, secondary reliable sources that discuss the company with significant coverage; post them here and I'll give you my opinion whether they are enough to satisfy NCORP. Wikipedia holds for profit private companies to fairly strict standards due to the presence of promotional strategies and churnalism that surrounds much of the corporate press. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 00:45, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
In terms of sources, check your sources against the lists here: WP:RSPSS. Multiple, significant coverage in a newspaper of record is almost always going to satisfy the criteria. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 00:54, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello - could you see if this article meets guidelines? --WealthNavigator2024 (talk) 18:04, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi @WealthNavigator2024 - there's no linked draft...? Do you have a specific text? Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 21:51, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
Hi @WealthNavigator2024 - ok, now I can see the draft exists. I will have a look. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 01:07, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
Hi @WealthNavigator2024 - In current form, this would not meet policy or guidelines. There are a number of problems, first, it reads like a tax advice essay for someone in the USA, rather than an encyclopedia entry readable to anyone in the world. Please have a look at the Manual of Style for writing articles. Second, the concept itself does not apprear notable from the sources provided, this looks more like original research, which is against Wikipedia policy. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 01:16, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Question from FuscusSalinator (23:53, 13 August 2024)

Hello. I just edited a page and I cannot figure out how to add the citation. --FuscusSalinator (talk) 23:53, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi @FuscusSalinator - Basically, there are two ways to add a reference, via the Visual Editor or via source (text) editing. For source editing have a look at this Help:Referencing for beginners. For Visual Editor look at this: WP:REFVISUAL. Let me know if I can help any further. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 01:06, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Question from Hussein Mustafa Parmar on Draft:Sheikh Hussein Mustafa Parmar (21:57, 16 August 2024)

How can I put my photo in the page I want to create of myself --Hussein Mustafa Parmar (talk) 21:57, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Hussein Mustafa Parmar - editors are strongly discouraged from editing about themselves. I see your draft has been deleted as it contravened policy. I would encourage you to edit in areas that interest you and where you do not have a conflict of interest. On your talk page is a message with lots of links on how best to contribute. Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 10:29, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Question from Omons345 (01:13, 17 August 2024)

Hello Sugar Valley i wanted to do something new. --Omons345 (talk) 01:13, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Question from R1R1Liii (03:25, 18 August 2024)

Hello, is Grammarly useful for Wikipedia? --R1R1Liii (talk) 03:25, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi @R1R1Liii - I've never used Grammarly and some editors recommend against it: Wikipedia:Don't use Grammarly. (That is just an essay, so it is not policy or guideline, just an opinion). Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 05:03, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for clarify
Kind Regards, R1R1Liii (talk) 05:54, 18 August 2024 (UTC)

Question from Binitjeje on Malakar (22:36, 19 August 2024)

Hello how can I lock my page from vandellism. --Binitjeje (talk) 22:36, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Binitjeje - pages are not usually locked unless there is persistent vandalism. When you say, your page, which page do you mean? Regards, Goldsztajn (talk) 22:51, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
