I also fixed some of the redlinks in the exhibitions section of the article. Netherzone (talk) 19:45, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello! I saw your draft article on Alan Shields. He was a great artist, whose work I have admired for many years. If you are open to hearing feedback on the draft, I would suggest removing the long CV-like list of exhibitions, and instead select 5 or so of the most prestigious solo shows. Each of these should have a citation so that the shows can be verified. It could be then written in paragraph form with a sentence or two on the work in each show. (It's not necessary to write it in prose-style but it's more encyclopedic). The reason for this suggestion is that we see a lot of promotional articles for artists and actors, and I wouldn't want the article to be flagged as promotional content or maintenance-tagged for being resume-like. Just so you know there is a backlog at Articles for Creation, and it can sometimes take weeks to months for a draft to make it thru the process. Just sharing some thoughts as I see this is your first article. Will post a more formal Welcome message. Netherzone (talk) 14:54, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello, Chainsawpunk!
Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Hoary (talk) 22:55, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

I have edited with your suggestions in mind!
Hi, in reviewing the Draft:Marsha Cottrell I noticed that you had uploaded the image used there as your 'own work'. This suggests that you may have an external relationship with the person in question, given that you have been at close enough quarters to take such a photo. I will post another message below with instructions for declaring and dealing with conflicts of interest (COI); please action as needed. Alternatively, it could be that you have no such relationship, and didn't in fact take that photo, but then you shouldn't have uploaded it as your own work, since you may not have the necessary rights to do that. Grateful if you could clarify either way. Thanks, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:19, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Asparagusus (interaction) 22:45, 6 January 2023 (UTC)An article you recently created, Oren Pinhassi, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 14:10, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
