Once posts on my User Talk page become redundant or are dealt with, they are manually moved here. All posts that have ever been posted on my Talk page will eventually end up here.

An article you recently created, D'Angelo Wallace, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) 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.

• Deleted per ((db-g11)) as unambiguous advertising/promotion. – Athaenara ✉ 04:49, 13 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

If you think you can improve the draft to a form acceptable for Wikipedia article, ask the admin (best the one who deleted the page, i.e. Athaenara) to restore it. However, be aware that the comment 'unambiguous advertising/promotion' means the admin sees no chance to improve the article other than completely re-writing it. Advertising/promotion is not a lack of sources (which is itself quite a big issue), but a problematic form and tone. As such it might be simpler just to start over with another attitude to the subject.

I am not an admin and can't restore or even see the contents of the deleted page, so I can't tell you what specifically was wrong with it, but most often 'advertising' manifests in a bit personal and laudatory language with words like 'promising', 'innovative', leading', 'well-known', 'best choice', etc..

So, before you return to the article, either by an un-delete request or by rewriting it from scratch, please see again the most important policies at

• WP:VER
• WP:NOR
• WP:NPOV

as well as the guidelines on

• WP:COI

I do not know it the latter applies to you; please check it yourself, and follow the requierments described there, if so. Anyway it's good to know it, because everyone writes most willingly about things, people, places and events which one knows best, hence some personal attitude is unevitable, and we must be able to identify it and keep it from getting into articles we create.

There are many other guidelines, but those I mention above are IMO the crucial ones for the Wikipedia quality and reliability. Failing to obey any of those will certainly prevent your work from being published. So I strongly advise you to see them, just for you to make a good work and see it eventually published and useful for the rest of the world. Good luck! --CiaPan (talk) 09:22, 13 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

We WP:SIGN our entries at Wikipedia talk pages, be it an article's talk page, a user's talk page, or a general or specialized forum pages like WP:Teahouse, WP:Help desk or WP:Reference desk. A signature as a minimum consists of a user name and a timestamp, and it allows participants to recognize who the author of each entry was, and when it was added. It usually contains also a link to that user's talk page (like mine), some people add also links to their contributions lists.

You can add a standard, default signature to your posts by appending four tildes at the end: ~~~~, either by typing them from the keyboard, or by clicking the icon above the editing area (if you edit in a desktop-like browser). --CiaPan (talk) 09:37, 13 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:D'Angelo Wallace, image of face.png, which you've attributed to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wh-7N1AnhGI&t=125s. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add ((OTRS pending)) to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as ((non-free fair use)) or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Wikiacc (¶) 19:18, 24 November 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
