Heya Masr Draft

Hello, you declined a submission I made for an NGO called Heya Masr, can you please give me the reason why? You said that it seems like self advertisement, however, I have no affiliation whatsoever with this NGO. Also, I believe my article was 100% neutral so can you please tell what was not neutral about my draft? — Preceding unsigned comment added by John koprivne (talk • contribs) 06:08, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The main problem was its wording. For example, you wrote " Through dedicated efforts, Heya Masr actively cultivates strong and enduring partnerships with institutions throughout Egypt, spanning from universities and large corporations to youth centers and orphanages.", which isn't in a neutral tone. Another issue, which was brought up by another reviewer, was that the draft does not cite enough reliable sources, as most of the sources are published by Heya Masr themselves. Please fix these issues, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask here or at the Teahouse. Thanks. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 06:13, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I added more reliable sources that aren't published by Heya Masr themselves as a response to what the first reviewer said. Also, the first reviewer said that starting from 3 outside sources, the article is considered to be in accordance with wikipedia regulations. I included 5 sources that aren't' published by Heya Masr. When it comes to the wording, I believe that the article is neutral as like I said before I have no affiliation whatsoever with this NGO. However, the example you provided, now that I look at it out of context, does seem a bit subjective so I changed it. Please, let me know if you have other specific areas in the article that I should change as I resubmitted the article for review. John koprivne (talk) 06:28, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will look at the draft later. In addition, I see that you asked the initial reviewer on his talk page, but I don't see any mention of 3 outside sources in his answer, nor in the pages he linked. Could you clarify where you saw that response? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 06:34, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It was on his talk page in response to someone else's draft called: Ecuador Women's National Under-17 Football Team. John koprivne (talk) 06:40, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for letting me know. Another reviewer is currently reviewing the draft, so there's not much you and me can do right now. Feel free to ask if you have any other questions. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 06:45, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They just gave up on it for some reason, they didn't approve or deny so please feel free to give me any suggestions. John koprivne (talk) 07:03, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In that case I'd recommend asking about the draft at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk, where other independent editors can help. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 07:16, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would you be interested?

Hello, CanonNi,
I don't know if you remember me, but we both participated in a discussion on the talk page of Black Sea slave trade, and I appreciated your effort in that issue (the problematic user has reappeared there, but I hope and trust they will not be succesful, since the matter seem settled). A similar issue has recently came up. Since you were interested in protecting Black Sea slave trade against attempts of bias, you may also be intrested in the talk page of slavery in al-Andalus; nothing has yet been done, but it likely will be.
A user who have shown what I believe to be bias have been allerted to the article: [1] The first user have adressed valid concerns which I have adressed, but M.Bitton have shown bias in other articles in this topic issue, and from what is said, I am concerned that this article will be subjected to bias editing. You will see my concerns on the article talk page. Since posting that, another user has allerted me that M.Bitton may have been on ANI for bias editing, but I do not know if that is true.
Perhaps you could be persuaded to put the article in your watch list, and adress future bias editing by M.Bitton? I would have done it myself, but I must be honest enough to say that my health is not good enough to engage in such a thing, and I have been blunt enough to explain why in the talk page. But I am still concerned enough to want to at least attempt to do something to protect the article. Of course, there is no need for any action at all at present; but since I know you to be interested in the subject, I would be grateful to know that a non-bias and serious contributor with respect for a non bias view had the article under watch. If you are not intereted, perhaps you can recomend another user to contact? Thanks. All the best,--Aciram (talk) 11:28, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Aciram, and thanks for contacting me. I definitely do remember you, and I appreciate your great work. I will definitely monitor the article, and watch out to M.Bitton and other accounts. Thank you for trusting me, but to be honest, I believe that I'm not experienced enough to deal with things like this, and that my knowledge in the field is not enough to make decisions about the article's topic. I would recommend contacting active members of WikiProjects, such as WikiProject Human rights and WikiProject History. Again, thank you for contacting me, Aciram.

So, there is this new user who recently edited the Thai Airways Flight 261 article and removed some content about what the pilots said. The thing is that it was cited content, however, he says that he was a survivor of the crash and he knows that the pilots said nothing to them about returning back to Don Mueang International Airport. Now I'm not experienced enough to deal with this unusual situation and I know that you have way more experience than me so... yeah. CreatorOfMinecraftHerobrine (talk) 14:32, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted their edit. To deal with situations like this, I would recommend using tools such as Twinkle, which can revert and warn editors with a few clicks. Thanks for contacting me. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 14:37, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up on draft submission declined

Hello, CanonNi. Good day to you. I would like to follow-up on my recent article submission which you have just declined. I'm hoping you would kindly shed light on the reasons why. Based on earlier feedbacks by other editors, I've made significant changes to insert independent and relevant external sources.

I believe the words used presently describe the company as a whole, and they are all factual instead of advertorial. Regarding a comment on COI, I have declared it on my profile and once again, the article draft is purely informational on the company. There are literally tons of big names/organisations out there with similar tone/language on their articles.

Don't mean to sound rude or anything, just curious how to proceed as best as I could because I noticed there are entries facing similar issues. Really appreciate any help I could get on this. Thank you so much. Looking forward to hearing from you. Stevienetto (talk) 06:53, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Stevienetto. The reason I declined the draft is because there wasn't significant improvement since the previous decline. It seems that no new sources were added.
The draft needs more independent, reliable sources to demonstrate notability. Another issue is the external links in the draft. Please see WP:EXTERNAL and remove the links. Thank you for contacting me. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 06:57, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi CanonNi, thanks for replying. To be fair, the previous decline was solely talking about the COI aspect, which I feel doesn't make sense because isn't most articles are created from someone being invested in the subject/object to begin with.
Anyway, not sure how much more external sources I ought to add because most of them are available from the company and it's not "reliable" to be included. Any chance the latest edits are any better (have taken out many website links)? Once again, thank you for the help; appreciate some specifics given compared to the previous figures. Stevienetto (talk) 11:04, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would suggest removing the external links in the body first, such as in the "History" section. In addition, a quick Google search has found many sources, such as this one and this one, so maybe consider adding some? The recent edits are definitely improvements, but more changes can be made. Thank you for asking! '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 11:33, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello there. Appreciate the feedback. Hope the new changes are good enough now. Do let me know your thoughts. Thank you so much for the help. Stevienetto (talk) 04:12, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. I see that you have added new sources and removed external links, which is great. If you're ready, you could resubmit the draft for review, and another editor will take a look at the draft shortly. (I won't review the draft myself, as I also contributed to it) '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 04:19, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Great! Once again, thank you so much for your help. Cheers! Stevienetto (talk) 04:22, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello there. Sorry to bother you, just that you're the only one who has been kind and helpful so far. Apparently the draft has been declined and at this point I'm just so lost and frustrated about the whole process. Feels like every editor/reviewer has their own standards and it's impossible to tick all the boxes, hence a never-ending cycle.
Am wondering if there's a possibility a different editor overseeing my draft instead of the same person if I were to submit without any changes (since I genuinely don't know what else is there to add on)? I apologise for the troubles. Stevienetto (talk) 06:37, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I understand how you feel. Consider asking about the draft at WP:AFC/HD, where other editors can look at the draft and give suggestions. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk|contribs) 06:40, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
