Your submission at Articles for creation: Overtime (sports network) (April 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Deb was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Overtime (sports network) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Overtime (sports network), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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.

Overtime Draft Improvement

Hello, I formerly contributed to the Overtime page when it was up before. I just wanted to know if you have a copy of the old page's content and I could help improve your draft with some of the notable bits of content there, so it can have better chances to be approved. Please share this with me if you have it. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 06:58, 6 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't. It was taken down and I believe deleted. Not sure how to find it. The article I rewrote that's currently in draft status doesn't seem promotional in anyway. Here is the link http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Overtime_(sports_network) Bankrupt305 (talk) 19:46, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I have some suggestions to improve it based on the past version. For the investors, it could help to edit in and put the per round of funding than just jumble up the investors together. I'll be editing that part in myself over the next few days. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 15:02, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just added more details on the funding round to further show the use of third-party sources and notability. I put the funding rounds from seed to Series D for reference. Let me know what you think and if you have other ideas to add, I can help you check them and see if they are fit. I removed the merchandise part of the article as it is too irrelevant to include in the article, see how Bleacher Report and ESPN don't put those in their articles. Same goes for the NFT project, irrelevant like the merchandise. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 16:14, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Word of advice, do not copy paste word per word from articles into the Overtime page, instead, always paraphrase what is written because it would be plagiarism to just copy everything, I noticed that in the Overtime Elite section on the curriculum having just been pasted from the SBJ article, I just edited that part and paraphrased it. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 07:57, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

All of your additions look great. Thank you for taking the care and time to make sure it meets Wiki standards. Is there any way to get this approved? Or do we have to wait many months? Bankrupt305 (talk) 14:12, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So far it looks good to go, I can actually have this go live as an article by myself as I have had approved drafts before so I have that right now. But before I go and have this page go live, do you have any other notable information on Overtime you could add, otherwise, it looks good to go for me. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 14:59, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It looks great. Thank you so much. I guess my question is, how much detail should we add about Overtime Elite? Or should I add that as we go? And so, we launched a 7 on 7 football league called OT7. https://theathletic.com/3462115/2022/07/30/recruiting-overtime-nil-social-media/ Bankrupt305 (talk) 15:06, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would add the Overtime Elite detail as much as you can, provided it's big big news, do not add all the player signings as not all are significant of course, but big news here and there like the Pau Gasol board joining and historic player signings like say players who end up in the NBA would be good. As for the football league, you can add that under the Overtime history and just make sure to cite sources properly, cite a subscription need for access if you'll use The Athletic source. I feel it's good to publish after you add that bit on OT7. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 16:02, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just added that bit on OT7, kindly check, then I think this is improved enough to publish as an article/page. Let me know your thoughts. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 16:04, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's ready to go. The only thing I'd add is that we held our inaugural OT7 Season this June in Las Vegas. The athletic article above could be the reference for that. Then I think you can post. Really do appreciate it. Bankrupt305 (talk) 16:38, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please take a quick look at what I think should be the final version for now that's good to edit. Happy to help as a fan of Overtime and would be open to connecting over email if you are open to that to discuss more on Overtime from a fan's perspective. Will be activating this as a page in a bit if good with you. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 17:10, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is great. thanks again so much for getting this moving and helping us follow the guidelines. Tell me the best way to contact you, and I'd be glad to. Bankrupt305 (talk) 17:32, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, please feel free to email me. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 17:52, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I just uploaded your company logo into the draft, please take a look, I put it under a borrowed license. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 18:07, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I sent you an email.

Draft looks great! Bankrupt305 (talk) 20:20, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Zachary Weiner (February 1)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by AngusWOOF was:

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

30 under 30 / 40 under 40 does not confer notability.

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:Zachary Weiner 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.
