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

WP has articles "Greeks in (country)" but not individual cities. Given that this is the 7th largest, not the largest, I don't think it warrants a separate article. Also, all of the references (except the census) are wp:primary, which does not support 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 when they have been resolved.

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

Is Oleske still living?

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.

It was great to see you too at the Wikisalon. Creating a WP event page sounds like a great idea -- I'm not quite sure how to do that. Would you be able to point me in the right direction?

Probably you have seen Wikipedia:How to run an edit-a-thon. It addresses many questions that I don't understand, and briefly mentions the Event Page. For those other matters you can consult experts including @Pharos:, @Rhododendrites:, and @Wil540 art:. Notice that I used the Ping template. This alerts our fellow editors that I'm talking about (or to) them. Event Pages are written by the same method we use for biographies, galaxies, libraries or other stereotypical articles. We find a nice old Event Page, copy it, and replace the specifics of the old event with specifics of the new one. I shall copy the Event Page from Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/February 2023, the one for the monthly WMNYC meeting Wednesday evening. The name for the draft will be User:Dbiunno/Draft for History of Nursing in Newark. We can both edit it and when it's ready, we can move it (I will move it if you are not yet a Filemover) into a WMNYC pagename and make a link to it from the WMNYC list of events.

All right; as usual I munged it a bit on the first try. No problem; every failure can be re-edited. Also I used Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/NYBG March2019 as the source because that's an edit-a-thon. Now I'll add some bits. Certainly it won't be ready when I leave for the afternoon; you should try to do something with it meanwhile. Again no problem if you add more mistakes to the draft; they are easily reversed or adapted. It's a wiki, y'know?

So, some things remain to be added and subtracted. This version invites the general public; I don't know whether you intend this event as a mainly internal affair. If so, the "how to get there" section might simply be deleted; if not then it must be completely rewritten. And various other things but now it's time for me to make a few watchlist checks and get out the door for my afternoon errands.

Thanks, Jim for helping me get started. This is wonderful! I'll begin making edits today. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

I figure the event page is pretty near ready. I've been a bit busy too; a couple hours from now I'll be at Lincoln Center tutoring a photo uploader. Anyway there's a series of tiny paragraphs that ought to be a bullet list. And now it's clear to me that this is almost entirely an insider event, which is fairly common when the venue is academic. Half a century ago most college campuses were wide-open; I could go anywhere without identification. In the new century I have sometimes been stopped by a gate guard who hadn't been told there was an open Wikipedia event that day. Also if there will be other outsiders we'll need more precise simple instructions like where's the preferred entrance gate. When it's just me I generally just wander around asking people. Not all this has to be ready when you say, let's show the event page to all possibly interested Wikians since we want their advice on the whole thing anyway.

Thanks for sharing with me your perspective on this. We'd like to make this event as friendly as possible to folks who aren't part of the university, so good point about adding information about the entrance gate, etc. I'll make those changes and add info about parking too--if there's anything else you think we should add that would be helpful, please let me know. The other organizers and I are still pretty new at this -- so any tips/suggestions you have are welcome.

The other organizers and I are still adding potential resources to the section "list of articles to edit and potential sources". We likely won't be ready to publish until late next week. Hopefully, that's not cutting it too close?

This new software for replies has its shortcomings including it indents too far, so occasionally I do a sourcecode outdent like this. No, it should be moved before these details are all finished. You have cleared out the Botanic Garden junk I left, and the whole job is 80% done, and that's enough to show it to our fellow editors, thereby enlisting their aid. Particularly the list of sources and other suggestions usually gets additions up to event morning and even during the session. So, it's already time to move and, if you have not changed the default Wikipedia header skin, your move function will be under the "Tools" tab.

At least you, Diane, should apply for the Wikipedia:Event coordinator right. Give my name as recommending it. That will mean two of us will have the right to create accounts without running into the anti-sockpuppet local creation limit. If the other organizers are less experienced wikians, then don't bother getting them the right. It's only important when participants show up without first making their account from another IP address, but it's one matter in which usually the majority fail to comply.

So, I recommend moving the event page on Sunday afternoon. To me it seems ready for our fellow Wikians to see, criticize, and improve. Remember, it's a collaborative document like everything else Wiki, and more collaboration is better. Our experienced friends may get good ideas about tasks to be suggested to participants, resources to use, and other issues. Generally an event page is only really finished about a week after event day, when we finish adding results.

Thanks Jim for your help with this. I'll apply to be an event coordinator as you suggested-- and thank you so much for letting me give your name as a recommender. You've been so generous with your time and helping me with this...I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you one more favor: I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to move the page.

Yeah it's kind of complex. I forgot to say it's a move to "Wikipedia Namespace" and c'mon; why does everything have to have a weird name? Well, it does. Don't worry; if we're getting new articles that are up to "Start" standard you and I will be moving them to "Main Namespace" meaning treating them as real articles that are searched by Google and seen by the world. You'll understand it the first time I do it in front of you. So, you having approved, I moved the event page myself to Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/History of Nursing in Newark March 2023 as I said above somewhere. I also did some minor adjustments to the moved page; other oldtimers will chip in and help. With any luck, they'll point out where I told you wrong.

Being in real life a useless old retired fellow with very little on schedule, I am ready and eager to go anywhere within short train distance, any nice day. I haven't been in Newark since the plague started, though I snapped many pictures while bicycling there in previous years. Hmm, can I park my bike safely, or is it better to walk from Penn Station? Not a problem either way. We could meet at the library, or at a restaurant where we might get a little sauce on our laptop keyboards as we demonstrate methods, or elsewhere. The more the merrier; we could make an informal "training the trainers" session. Anyway, any afternoon with good walking weather is good for me, on one day's notice.

After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have temporarily enabled the flag on your account until 2023-03-14. Keep in mind these things:

• The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
• The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
• The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
• Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right.
