The Wayang Kids moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, The Wayang Kids, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The article Girl Giant and the Monkey King has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Fails WP:NBOOK. Does not appear to have significant coverage.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 12:54, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

The article Van Hoang has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:36, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
Sure, I will try improving the article by having providing the evidence that this is a real person. Meiwuzhang (talk) 12:42, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

[edit] Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Book article sources
[edit]Hi there, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for writing Girl Giant and the Monkey King and starting the Van Hoang article! I'm sorry that one of your first Wikipedia experiences has been having your articles put up for deletion discussion, but I think both of these are likely to be kept, so don't worry too much. You might want to have a look at those two deletion discussions to see the evidence that editors are raising there: the simplest way to show that a book or an author is notable, and therefore qualifies for a wikipedia article, is to show that it has been widely reviewed. (See WP:NBOOK for more info.) Because the general rule of thumb is that a book qualifies for an article if it has received two or more substantial reviews, it's very helpful to make sure that you have at least two reviews used as references in every book article you make, from the very first edit. This should keep people from trying to delete it.
I see that you've used Goodreads as a source for both of these articles. Because Goodreads is user-generated content, it isn't usually considered a "reliable source" (see WP:RS). Likewise, blogs and social media posts are typically not considered reliable sources either. Where you can, you should use sources like the reviews that people are bringing up in those Articles for Deletion discussions - mainstream publications, like (national) newspapers and magazines. You can use some of these now to further improve the two articles you've published, if you like!
Again, welcome, and good luck editing! Feel free to ask if you have any questions. -- asilvering (talk) 05:47, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
Advice on drafts
[edit]Hello Meiwuzhang, I noticed that you have started some articles on The Wayang Kids and The Dragon Warrior that are currently in draftspace. I wanted to encourage you to keep working on them as drafts, focusing on linking WP:RELIABLE sources like published reviews. I wasn't able to find any reviews of The Wayang Kids but I found two reviews of The Dragon Warror ([1][2]) which are enough to make it eligible for an article if you wish to write one. For the movie, I notice that the movie itself is in Chinese, so the reviews may also be in Chinese. Non-English sources are allowed for English wikipedia articles, so if you happen to be able to find and read reviews in another language, you can use them for the article. Again, if you have any questions or would like any help, feel free to ask! ~ L 🌸 (talk) 05:52, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
- Actually, I also notice that you may not have gotten a response from other editors when you wrote back because you did not "ping" them! To make sure someone is notified that you are replying to them, you have to use a template like {{re|USERNAME}} to get their attention, like so: @Meiwuzhang:. The "re" template adds the @ sign and the : automatically; you can use {{u|USERNAME}} instead if you don't want that. For the other person to get alerted that you are talking to them, you have to make sure to sign your comment with ~~~~. Happy editing! ~ L 🌸 (talk) 06:04, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

- Hi @Meiwuzhang, it looks like you've got the problem with the block quotes sorted out? They're working right now for me, at least. The article will still be rejected at AfC, however, because it doesn't show that the book is notable according to the criteria at WP:NBOOK. The type of review we're looking for for this are the kinds of review that were added to Girl Giant and the Monkey King - well-known, reliable sources like Kirkus, not reviews on user-generated websites like Goodreads (these you should not link to at all), or on promotional sites like the publisher's or bookseller's website. -- asilvering (talk) 08:35, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Asilvering Understood. Thanks! 🐵 Meiwuzhang (talk) 08:43, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Asilvering Oh, and quick question, are these soruces listed here acceptable?
literaryheist.com lilbluebottle.com supercoolbooks.com singaporewritersfestival.com Meiwuzhang (talk) 08:49, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Asilvering The blockquote problem is actually not sorted out, but I think I can try to get used to the fact I'm still not seeing blockquotes but I will assume that everyone can see it. Meiwuzhang (talk) 08:56, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- The first three: no, they're blogs. The writer's festival one - probably, depending on what you're using it for. -- asilvering (talk) 08:58, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Asilvering thanks. 🐒 Meiwuzhang (talk) 09:09, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Asilvering Hi, my submission got declined for tge third time. I decided to remove the source from goodreads but when I published it, there was no change. I think it is tge same peoblem from earlier again, this time not regarding the blockquote. Meiwuzhang (talk) 12:43, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Meiwuzhang Your edit went through fine. I removed the one remaining Goodreads link for you just now. What device are you using to edit? Maybe your mobile browser isn't refreshing the page correctly...? -- asilvering (talk) 03:37, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

The fact is, I actually edit on my phone through the app. Meiwuzhang (talk) 15:37, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
Sometimes Is would use my tablet. Meiwuzhang (talk) 15:37, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
- I don't use mobile to edit so I'm afraid I don't have any further help to offer there, but if you keep having problems with it, if you tell people what app/browser and that you're using a phone/tablet that might help people find a solution. -- asilvering (talk) 16:36, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

- @Liance I understand but there is this technical problem I have. Every time I make a change and after I published it, the article looks like it is not changed at all. Please look into this matter, thank you Meiwuzhang (talk) 04:22, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
- Could you check the History tab at the top of the article and see if your revisions are being saved? You could try asking editors at the Teahouse for help with technical edit-related issues if you continue to have them. Best, -Liancetalk/contribs 04:26, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

- Unfortunately I'm not quite sure what causes the technical issue either! As an alternative, you could list all your sources (including those that you say are not showing up) on your draft's Talk Page and leave a note at the top of the article for next reviewer before resubmitting. Hope this helps. -Liancetalk/contribs 22:58, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
