@Searcher7799: Hi, as I understand it, the issues with your drafts are the lack of reliable sources and promotional language. I can't speak on behalf of the reviewers, but adding reliable secondary sources certainly wouldn't hurt, if these subjects have entries on Farsi Wikipedia you might use those references. Shellwood (talk) 17:01, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Jubiliance3829 (17:31, 19 November 2024)

[edit]

I've identified two bad links on references to this page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dibasic_ester

References 1 and 3.

How should I identify this gap and try to resolve?

Thanks, --Jubiliance3829 (talk) 17:31, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jubiliance3829: What do you mean by bad links? You can't open them? Shellwood (talk) 18:10, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Reference 1 is a web page with a header but no content.
Reference 3 is a dead link (error 404). Jubiliance3829 (talk) 19:19, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see, as for reference 1, I'm not familiar with the website and I don't know whether a subscription is needed to access it. These links were retrieved a long time ago, so it should come as no surprise that they are not working. The other reference can be viewed here:[1]. If you have knowledge about this topic, you are more than welcome to add new references to the article. Shellwood (talk) 19:33, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I've updated with a current reference for #1 and marked #3 as dead link. Jubiliance3829 (talk) 22:12, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Fenrirtheyapper (20:27, 26 December 2024)

[edit]

Hello, I have several questions about reliable sources. If I am trying to fill in a page that has not been updated for years, and the subject is not well known, what kinds of sources or websites are reliable? Also, how does the process of adding a new page work? --Fenrirtheyapper (talk) 20:27, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fenrirtheyapper:Hi, it's hard to say without knowing what article you are referring to, this is a general list of sources that can be used and those to avoid:WP:RSPSOURCES. As for your second question, if you are wondering about how to start a new article this guide will help you. Shellwood (talk) 21:00, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your quick response. One example was this article: List of dirt track ovals in Canada
Is it acceptable to simply use google to try and find more examples from each province, and check their website for an address? How formal does something like finding a location/address/reference date need to be?
Another example is this video game: Crossfire (1981 video game)
I found a small website which had the PDF of the instructions attached, is that enough of a reference to use as a citation? Fenrirtheyapper (talk) 21:05, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Fenrirtheyapper: Secondary sources are preferable here. These can come from a website, using Google is fine, and so is adding a PDF as a reference as long as it's reliable. As for formality, when adding a new reference, just fill in the author, the publisher, the date the source was published and the date you retrieved it. I'm not familiar with that video game, so I can't comment on that. You are more than welcome to expand those articles, good luck! Shellwood (talk) 23:02, 26 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
