Question from Bdas.in (01:14, 11 May 2024)[edit]

Hi Mentor. I need your help in publishing an article. Please have a look at this drafted article, and guide me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bdas.in/sandbox --Bhajan Das (talk) 01:14, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Bdas.in! Sorry for the somewhat late response. I’m currently swamped at work and have to finish a project, but I just wanted to let you know that I’ve seen your message and intend to offer some feedback on your draft over the weekend. ◇HelenDegenerate◆ 02:19, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bdas.in Okay, here are my thoughts. I think you’ve done a good job of finding sources to use and breaking the article into sections. What I would do now is skim through the whole thing and look for two things:

1) Any language that could potentially be construed as promotional in tone. For example, I’d suggest removing the word ‘prominently’ from the ‘Work in the Parliament of India’ section.

2) Sources that are closely affiliated with Jyoti, or that don’t have significant coverage of her. This would fall into the first category. If there are sources like these, see if you can replace them with third-party sources.

When you feel that the draft is ready to submit, you can either move it into mainspace yourself, or submit it for review by adding {{Userspace draft|date=May 2024}} to the top of your sandbox and following the directions there. ◇HelenDegenerate◆ 23:56, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Hiebe (23:30, 16 May 2024)[edit]

Hello I saw a broken link could I replace it with a new one? --Hiebe (talk) 23:30, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Hiebe and welcome to Wikipedia! Yes, if you see a dead link in an article, it’s generally acceptable to be bold and replace it with another one. Just be careful to avoid spam. :) ◇HelenDegenerate◆ 19:47, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
