So, I got rid of the YouTube links, even though I fail to see how referencing a video interview by linking to the video interview isn't "reliable." Also, I've used as many if not more credible references than many accepted podcast pages, but can't see how the one I created is somehow unacceptable, particularly by comparison. For instance...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_Sack
They use four references, all of which internal.
I hope I don't sound bitter in tone because I would honestly like help on this article/page. I am particularly confused by what appears to be inconsistency in accept/reject decisions, and I don't know what I am doing "wrong." Thanks in advance.

Hello, I received a message saying the article I created for Paul Bojack was not accepted.
However, Paul Bojack is notable because under your guidlines for Creative Professional -- 4 c) "the person's work has won significant critical attention". Mr Bojack's work has received strong reviews in major publications such as The New York Times, Variety, LA Weekly, Film Threat. This is significant critical attention -- The New York Times is the most famous newspaper in the world. Variety is the most important trade publication for movies and entertainment. In addition, the article includes references / links to these publications and reviews. These are reliable, independent publiched sources.
In other words, the notabilty and significance of the person is established (Mr. Bojack's work has won significant critical attention) and this notablity is supported by independent sources (the actual reviews from The New York Times, Variety etc). — Preceding unsigned comment added by SummerOlympic2012 (talk • contribs) 04:43, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

I don't understand the resistance behind allowing awesome open source software projects described on Wikipedia. Given the arguments against this article I could as well put down the Mediawiki info. Can the awesomeness of FOSS projects be judged by experts in open source/software development? Requiring FOSS to be published in international magazines not by authors/contributors instead of technical evaluation of the features/completeness/popularity and scope first is kind of very-very strange. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Techtonik (talk • contribs) 08:02, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi! I need your help badly. Please, tell me how to add more info about a person? I'd like to add the birth day/month, country, citizenship etc.(I didn't find the template). This info is usually on the right side under a photo. And I also have problems with describing this photo. I managed only to insert it. Please, help. Thanks a lot.

Morning. I need some help with the above article. The Association (UKHKA), to which this article refers, used to be called the British Hand Knitting Confederation (BHKC). There is already a Wiki for the British Hand Knitting Association but this should be changed due to the name change. So I'm trying to generate a new article under the current name of the association without much luck.
I initially generated the article in much the same format as the original but with a bit of additional information from the UKHKA website. That was rejected for not having any citations. The original BHKC doesn't have any either so I assume the rules have changed since that was put on.
So I added some citations but now it's been rejected because it 'reads more like an advert' and also that there should be citations from independent, etc sources and "not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed"
Geez, I thought this would be so easy for my first dabble at Wiki!
So, I need a little help.
With regards to it 'reading like an advert', I'm a bit stumped with this but I'll go back over the text anyway. Not sure which bits are like an advert but I'll re-write in a different style in any case.
But I am a bit stumped with the citations and the "materials produced by the creator of the subject". I hunted around on the internet and found various articles that other organisations had written about the Assoc - universities, the Guardian, etc - mainly about the Awards that the association runs each year. So these aren't 'materials produced by the creator of the subject' but articles written by organisations about the awards, etc. So I'm a bit stumped as to what is needed here.
Thankyou for any assistance you can provide :-)

Difference between FRP AND GRP CABLE trays?

Hi!
Im in urgent need to get this article published. Is there any way to get it published first with a disclaimer on top based on the reviewer comment? As long as the article is up for public viewing and reachable when being search. Really need to get this up and off my hand.
Some one please accept it Umerali2204 (talk) 12:14, 16 February 2012 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Umerali2204 (talk • contribs) 12:07, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
This is a pathetic excuse for not releasing an article...
"The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Spectre R42. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you."
Need more information about what is "Sufficient" content for an article. In time people will see this article and update it themselves. It's kind of the point of having wiki. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stew2000 (talk • contribs) 12:39, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
It's a very interesting problem.
To me, even though the R45 is an updated version it is different to the R42.
I could merge it into the R42's article. however it could possibly make more sense to create a new article called Spectre Cars Ltd which would highlight the history of the company and have a proper place for both the R42 and R45.

I asked several moderators about this article, and they advised me that the article would not be accepted in its current form. I am curious to know whether this would possibly be accepted:
I would revise this article and details to form the article as "A List of Anti-Christian Quotes"?
The article would contain only quotes which explicitly say something contradictory to the Christian faith. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bmfriess (talk • contribs) 16:20, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
article for review "mini rover rov" was declined. article was edited and submitted for new review and declined because there had been "no changes".
i followed the instructions on the page that stated: "When the submission is ready to be re-submitted, click here and press the Save page button to request a new review". i clicked on "click here" and the page that displayed did not show the edits i had made.
it displayed only the text below:
Please don't change anything and press save
SUBST:submit
so, i didn't change anything and pressed save. no edits were saved. what did i do wrong? i have submitted the article again by clicking "save page" and not clicking "click here" as instructed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Geraldtjr (talk • contribs) 16:54, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Dear Help desk, I would like to add a few images to the article, a photo of an original Schaffer-Vega Diversity System, an advertising from a music magazine in the late 70s and a collection of scanned music magazine articles from the 70s, three images in total, available here: http://www.banane.at/svds-wikipedia/ . I just don't have adequate access rights for this (yet), but the images are needed to complete the article before I submit it for review again.

Hello I put in a request to change the username of Vancouverdrugman to Vancouverpolicymaker yesterday morning. I am not sure what the status of the change is...I can not login under that username. Does that mean that the change request has been denied?
Also, I have four indpendent reliable website links that back up the information stated on Donald MacPherson's wiki page. Why are they being rejected?
Thank you Jasmine — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vancouverdrugman (talk • contribs) 23:55, 16 February 2012 (UTC)
