), so that I will be notified.Hi @Pythoncoder , thank you for reviewing my draft on Ant International. I noticed that the submission was declined with the reason that it contains promotional or advertising content.
Could you kindly help me understand specifically which parts of the article or which sources were considered promotional? I’d like to revise it to meet Wikipedia’s neutrality and sourcing standards, but I want to make sure I correct the appropriate sections.
Your guidance would be greatly appreciated. Apriliantosetyadi (talk) 06:08, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Pythoncoder,
Thanks for your time reviewing the intiial entry for Coleman Douglas Pearls - much appreciated! I've removed any unreferenced content and made the article objective and non-promotional based on your guidance. Please take a look and let me know if there are any other issues whenever you get a chance.
For context, I write blog posts and web content for the company and have been asked to write a Wikipedia entry as a one-off project. I will update the conflict of interest in my account now.
I was wondering if you could help with another issue regarding referencing. A lot of the sources we do have are physical copies of things like magazines and newspapers. Is there any way we can use these as references for additional information, such as scanning them or uploading pictures? It would be a shame not to include many of the company's historical successes.
Thanks

Hey PythonCoder!👋 I've made several updates to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Eclipse0 based on your previous feedback regarding in-universe tone and style!
Let me know if the current version addresses your concerns, or if there are any remaining areas you'd recommend polishing before it's ready for approval.
Thanks again for your time and guidance :)! WilliamManchuria (talk) 10:20, 15 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
What can I improve for the Sharky Wikipedia Page to get it accepted?

Hi,
Thank you for the work you do.
I've worked on the article and would like you to take a look before I resubmit it for review. I'd appreciate to hear what you think of it.
Thanks for help. Iamwizzy (talk) 09:04, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your feedback, Pythoncoder. I may have used AI in modifying wordings and citing references,but that doesn't change the fact that my work is provable, fact-checkable, and linguistically and authoritatively backed by early documentaries.
I will work on a refined version; one that has no traces of AI or any of its influences.
I will be patiently waiting for your reply. Thanks in anticipation 🙏 Gemini22jnr (talk) 11:17, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Origin of the word “Oga” Gemini22jnr (talk) 09:38, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Pythoncoder,
Thanks for your feedback. I’d like to take a moment to clarify that my edits are not Original Research WP:OR. Each claim I added is supported by a single, reliable source WP:RS — specifically, authoritative and published dictionaries that include: Samuel Àjàyí Crowther’s Vocabulary of the Yoruba Language (1852)
Thomas Jefferson Bowen’s Grammar and Dictionary of the Yoruba Language (1858)
The Church Missionary Society’s Yoruba Dictionary (1913)
Kay Williamson’s Dictionary of Onicha Igbo (1972)
The Oxford English Dictionary
Each of these references explicitly records the word “Oga” or its relevant cognates, especially in the context of the Yoruba language. I made sure not to interpret or combine information from multiple sources; every statement is directly cited from a single, verifiable source.
I also want to respectfully note that sister projects like Wikipedia and Wiktionary really should not present conflicting etymological claims on the same word — not unless both are backed by solid, published linguistic evidence. Presenting contradictory information without reliable support can hurt the credibility of Wikimedia projects, particularly when it concerns culturally and linguistically significant terms like "Oga."
At present, the article seems to favor an Igbo derivation, but this position appears to lack strong linguistic or historical support. In contrast, multiple authoritative sources — including Crowther (1852), Bowen (1858), the CMS Dictionary (1913), and even the Oxford English Dictionary — directly trace the term “Oga” to the Yoruba language. Even Kay Williamson’s Dictionary of Ọ̀nìchà Igbo specifically and explicitly annotated that the word is of Yorùbá Origin not Igbo .
The encyclopedia should remain anchored in verifiability — not interpretation or editorial speculation. Claims, especially those concerning word origins or derivations, need to be backed by reliable, published linguistic sources. This isn’t about dismissing any language or cultural contribution; it’s about protecting the integrity and reliability of the resource.
If there's a particular sentence in my contribution that seems unclear or that might resemble synthesis, I’d be more than happy to revisit it constructively. As it stands, however, everything I've included adheres to Wikipedia’s core policies on verifiability, reliable sourcing, and original research.
Thanks again for engaging, and I look forward to resolving this collaboratively.

Hi @Pythoncoder I’ve updated the draft for *LawConnect (legal technology platform)* based on your feedback. I removed promotional wording. I’ve just resubmitted it and would appreciate it if you’re able to take another look. Thank you! MarvinFathi (talk) 01:01, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi! Thanks for participating in the Articles for Creation June Backlog Drive! We've done amazing work so far, dropping the backlog by more than 2000 drafts already. We have around 600 drafts outstanding, and we need your help to get that down to zero in 5 days. We can do this, but we need all hands on deck to make this happen. A list of the pending drafts can be found at WP:AFCSORT, where you can select submissions in your area of interest. Thank you so much for your work so far, and happy reviewing! – DreamRimmer ■ 01:34, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,
Thank you for kindly review my draft. I totally get the reason why it was declined, and I've been working on it.
I've removed all the potentially promotional terms in my draft. However, can you please take a look at it and help me review it once again to make sure that the issue is fixed?
Thank you!

Oh WOW, I just saw your note about ToadetteEdit being banned. I did put some more work into the drafts this week, and I'm sure you noticed. Hopefully a more objective reviewer will agree and accept, so thank you for resubmitting the draft for 4th edition. BOZ (talk) 15:28, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I want to thank you for taking an interest in the above-linked draft article. I noticed your note of waiting for the main space (Bite Me (album)) to be deleted, and it appears it has. Just sending a gentle note of this happening; again, I appreciate your time in reviewing the draft space (and seeming to approve it moving to main space)! livelikemusic (TALK!) 16:44, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pythoncoder: Thanks for reviewing my article submission.
You mentioned there are several issues with my submission on "AustChina Institute", including: 1) The use of informal tone: Could you pls give me an example of where I haven't used formal tone? 2) The use of peacock terms: Could you pls give me an example of where I've used a 'peacock term'?
I've also checked these issues you highlighted we two colleagues who also agree that the article that I've submitted is of a professional tone, neutral and should qualify as being in an encyclopedic format. But if you could give me examples of the 2 questions that I've listed above, it will assist me greatly to get a better understanding of your point and view and I'll be able to immediately correct the issue.
Thanks, much appreciated!

: Sorry, I posted this in the wrong place initially. You rejected this article because you said it sounded too much like an advertisement. I am writing an article about a company, and I tried to make it sound as neutral/objective and as little like an advertisement as possible, but that seems to be a difficult rope to walk. Do you have any advice on how to avoid this, or can you point to specific examples in my article that cross that line?
Thanks

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.You have been trouted for: For draft:Rafael (name page), I think it should be accepted because it is a name page so it should not be merged into Raphael (given name). Rapolas and Rafał are name pages that are also article name pages that are versions of "Raphael."

Order of the Lesser Scribe of Wikipedia
This is awarded to Pythoncoder for accumulating more than 350 points during the June 2025 AfC backlog drive. Your dedication and sustained efforts in reducing the backlog and contributions to Wikipedia's content review process are sincerely appreciated. Thank you for your participation! ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 13:20, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]I can clearly understand the guidelines you posted, however I still am unable to understand what independent sources I can add regarding this specific topic. More than about a million people have registered in this specific server, and we can prove that, however according to this niche genre where minimum independent sources write about minecraft servers, I am unable to find a lot of citations except just voting affiliated third party independent linked websites. I need a clear guideline to this specific issue, and with all due respect do not require the same guidelines which tell me to add more sources, I understand that clearly however I think you get what I'm trying to say. Thank you. Help! TNTplayerTNT (talk) 15:11, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It seems that only the Tampabay news article is acceptable, but those people I'm pretty sure got there info from these little sources from organizations and such, and then printed them in main article. These seem to be credible sources that confirm the song, it was played in a Warner Bros. movie, and is used for pop culture references today. Especially if the American film institute catalog confirms this, I don't see why it gets shot down. Gabbeyjoe00 (talk) 04:55, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
