Hello mentor! My first original article submission was declined. I have responded to the feedback on my talk page. a) Is that the appropriate channel to respond? b) Any advice on next steps? Thanking you! --Jilletegreas (talk) 03:05, 31 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jilletegreas: I've reviewed your talk page. Responding to your questions:

1. AfC reviews aren't really done on a correspondence basis; your primary option when declined is to revise and resubmit.
2. As the draft has since been rejected, there aren't really further steps to pursue on this topic.

A few more notes:

• Please don't use large language models (LLMs) to write your comments for you.
• Please make sure you read the COI & paid editing notice left on your user talk page (feel free to let me know if you have any questions).
• Regarding notability, none of the points you mention in your first response — "Raising ~$7 million from notable investors", "Being the official NFT provider for the BRIT Awards", "Commercial partnerships", "acquisition by an ASX-listed company" — provide any direct support for its notability. You cite the general notability guideline (GNG) and the notability guideline for organisations & companies, but they are almost contradictory to your argument; I suggest you read them — or at least the GNG — thoroughly (and, again, feel free to ask any relevant questions).
• Drafts are declined for reasons. While I cannot view the now-deleted page, there have been multiple comments stating that it was resubmitted without any improvement. Resubmitting without addressing the reason it was declined is not constructive, and takes the time of another reviewer without any meaningful increase in the change of the draft actually getting accepted.

Hello,

Can I change wrong source and promotional links on Wikipedia? --WebFilmNet (talk) 02:37, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@WebFilmNet, you can certainly remove promotion & promotional links, but not replace them with other promotional links. If you are unblocked and have further questions, feel free to ask me. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 17:31, 10 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Assigned? How useful. What do you do when you find an entirely corrupt statement in a major article. The article : “Haredi”aka “ultra-Orthodox Judaism” - the hideously inaccurate claim that Lubavicher Chassidm are Haredi, is on the level of saying “Roman Catholics are Protestants”. 1) No “modern Chassidic” movement can claim to be, or be claimed “ Haredi” - no matter what the movement’s propaganda. Chassidism is a mystical movement of followers of Israel Bal Shem. They practically founded a new faith (as all mystical movements are from their parent religion: primary source on Chassidism and Jewish mysticism, but not derrived opinion, Gershom Sholem, “Major Trends in Jewish Mysticism”, 1959, Schlocken Pub.

@Linguistic Irregular: We strive to ensure that articles are written from a neutral point of view; as part of this, statements are generally given as fact if they are supported by the general consensus of reliable sources. If you believe that a statement in an article is incorrect or non-neutral, you can either boldly remove it (if another editor reverts your removal, it should be discussed on the talk page), or open a discussion on the talk page yourself to seek consensus first. If a change is relatively small and likely uncontroversial, the former may be preferable, and vice versa if the change is more major. If you are changing something that has been established by preexisting consensus (see if there have been previous discussions or related reversions in the history), you should try to discuss before making the change.

Part 2 pick up from “Solomonic-Davidic” … Kings of Judea, there were re always 2 messiahim in Jerusalem, the “King- Messiah” and the Chief Priest Messiah, who, between them, held full political-religious power.Messiah didn’t mean “savior” at all - if one reads the Judaic Holy Scriptures” (the term Bible referrs only to the Christian holy book, calling the Judaic Holy Scriptures “the Jewish Bible” is like calling al-Quran “the Muslim Bible” - it’s not an insult, except to the writer’s knowledge. Calling the first book mentioned “the Old Testament” is an insult, for it is neither considered “old” by Jews, nor is it a Testament to anythung or anyone. The Jews regard their singular deity as the Savior who will review everyone’s life at the End of the World. The angel Gabrial will do the announsing, not a messiah. Judaism has been the source of several “false messiahs” who didn’t say “get ready for TEOWAKI” but led their followers into a lot of earthly trouble - Simon bar Kochba, who led all of his troops into the fortress atop Mt. Masada, was declared a messiah by his followers, and, according to Josephus Flavius war reporter/ historian, and they allegedly violated every Jewish law, Responsa, tradition, by ordering them all to kill themselves rather than be taken slave by Rome. Shabatai Zvi did the same in the Middle ages. Several dozen similar incidents have occurred in the past, making for a series of major corrections. The basic problem: sections on religions need be written from the point of view that author both accepts “common knowledge”and approaches the assignment is a US Christian and interpreters it from learning completely different from the subject and assumes words and concepts that mean one thing among them all, or is defending a minority with the statement made in the start of parr 1 of this plaintive cry. --Linguistic Irregular (talk) 06:00, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I can't tell if you're posing a specific question here or adding more information to the previous one — if these are further changes that you'd like to make, I'd refer back to my previous reply. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 22:44, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I have someone suspecting I get compensation for my edits because of my username is the name of a marketing agency which I was not aware of and am not connected to.

They believe I have been hired by said agency to promote professional wrestlers since I have only edited articles about professional wrestling.

What should I do? --The Marketing Ninja (talk) 07:19, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It seems like this issue has already been resolved through discussion on your talk page; let me know if you have any further questions. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 22:45, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I hope you're doing well. I had a wiki page about Hector Orón Martínez as a draft and I can't find it now. Could you help me? --Joel.oron (talk) 11:52, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi why dont my edits update when i refresh the page and log back in pls? --CleanUp2025 (talk) 02:09, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@CleanUp2025: Your edit to Clean Up Australia was reverted as it was heavily promotional, rather than being neutral and encyclopedic. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a venue for promotion; please do not add advertising or promotion. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 02:42, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have also left a message on your talk page in case you have a conflict of interest with the organisation. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 02:43, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

hi I am trying to update and edit the Clean Up Australia Wiki page from our own data. I work for Clean Up Australia and the information is not up to date or wasn't correct. Have i done the wrong thing or created an account in the incorrect manner? is this seens as a COI? --CleanUp2025 (talk) 03:18, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@CleanUp2025: Yes; this is definitely a conflict of interest. There's more information at the COI page I linked in the message on your talk; I would strongly encourage you to read it fully. Another issue is that your username is against Wikipedia policy, as detailed on your talk; please read the message there and follow the instructions to change your username if you wish to continue editing.
