User talk:Dan arndt: Difference between revisions

Every time you read an article on Wikipedia, remember that the only reason it exists is because someone gave enough of a damn and two thoughts about what you care about to put it there.

Welcome!

Hello, Dan arndt, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your unnecessary contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay till I get angry and chase you away. Here are some pages that you might find NOT helpful:

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to Yoshitha Rajapaksa when you modified the page, you introduced unknown parameters. Just because you specify |some_param=some_variable does not always mean that variable will display. The |some_param= must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance.

Thanks for your review on Draft:Reaching For The Stars (J.A.I. Cover album). The references that I was only able to find were from Instagram, Apple Music, and YouTube, as those carry proof that this artist and their album exist somewhere, and the article doesn’t really rely on notable references, just proof that both the album and artist exist. I resubmitted the draft because of this specific reason. (Talk) 20:25, 11 October 2025 (UTC)

Request to review

Hello Dan,

Thank you for reviewing my draft earlier. I’ve now made major updates to address your feedback regarding WP:NJOURNALIST and WP:BIO.

The revised version includes several new independent secondary sources:
• Two detailed features in *HELLO! Magazine* (2021 and 2023)
• A 2023 *HMAG Pakistan* profile highlighting my work as a British-Pakistani journalist
• Recognition in *The Muslim News* (Ibn Battūta Award for Excellence in the Media, 2025)
• Additional coverage in *Asian Standard*, *DESIblitz*, and *Entrepreneur* about my 2025 Achievement in Media award

All claims are now fully cited with inline references from reliable, editorially controlled sources.
Would you be kind enough to take another look at Draft:Emb Hashmi for reconsideration when you have time?

Thank you again for your guidance and for all the work you do with AfC reviews.
Warm regards,

Hi Dan! Hope you’re well–just wanted to bring your attention again to Draft:5 Baruch which I’ve thoroughly expanded and more extensively cited. I’d love to see if this is a good starting point for new articles since I’d like to take many of the same resources cited here and use them to make pages for other literature of Beta Israel. For a comparable page already in the namespace, I used the Ethiopic Apocalypse of Ezra as a template.

Thanks! — Gonel4117 (talk) 22:59, 7 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Drones ep.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Hi Dan, Thank you very much for the review.

The page does not rely on LinkedIn or on YT to establish notability. The page relies on three well-known schools: the Ancient Languages Institute, the Paideia Institute, and the Polis Institute, which is an accredited degree granting school in Jerusalem, specializing in ancient languages. These three separate schools each have employed the page’s topic and have printed bios of him on their web sites, clearly explaining his notability.

The main body of the page refers only to those three schools, and to one video posted by one school, the Paideia Institute, on their own independent channel, which provides independent and direct video evidence of the subject’s notability, during their yearly public event in NYC.

Can you let me know if the Polis Institute of Jerusalem, the Paideia Institute of New York, and the Ancient Languages Institute count as reputable and independent sources?

Thank you very much for your time and efforts. It’s much appreciated.
