May 2024[edit]

Hello, I'm JeffSpaceman. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 2022 Þingvallavatn plane crash, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. JeffSpaceman (talk) 15:17, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your user page may not meet Wikipedia's user page guidelines. It is intended for basic information about yourself, your interests and goals as they relate to editing Wikipedia, as well as disclosures of conflicts of interest and paid editing. Although a lot of freedom is allowed in personalizing your user page, it is not:

a space for self-promotion or other advertising
a CV, resumé or lengthy autobiography

The user page guidelines have additional information on what is and what is not considered acceptable content. Please use your user sandbox or the draft article space to practice editing or to create new articles. Thank you. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 19:18, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you are related to the person you are writing about, then we are truly sorry for your loss. However, Wikipedia is not a memorial site to write about someone who is recently deceased. A person must meet Wikipedia's notability requirements to merit inclusion. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 19:27, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thank you. I thought being victim of the 2022 Þingvallavatn plane crash was enough. Maxalings (talk) 19:29, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i thought under the 'People notable for only one event' Maxalings (talk) 19:32, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm really sorry @Maxalings, no evidence that your relative meets the WP:BIO1E criteria. Qcne (talk) 19:49, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Tim Alings (May 7)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Qcne were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I'm sorry, but there is no indication this person is notable enough for a Wikipedia article. Please see WP:NOTMEMORIAL.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Tim Alings and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Maxalings! Having an article draft 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! Qcne (talk) 19:47, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please also have a look at the conflict of interest guide. Writing about someone close to you - a relative, friend or colleague - is very difficult because of your personal relationship with them. It will be difficult for you to write from the required neutral point of view and use information only published in reliable sources. We prefer that users create or edit articles about topics where they have no personal or professional connection. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 20:02, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
