Please help me with... Hello Nerdies, I am new to the world of wikipediaMedauthor (talk) 09:31, 25 March 2025 (UTC). Although i have been writing blogs and editing other write ups but not much experience when it comes to Wikipedia. I started working on few drafts in history and Health genre. I am not sure if i am on the right track. Can anyone accompany me in edits or may be to publish my first draft. Medauthor (talk) 09:31, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You haven't created anything on Wikipedia except posting the above Help template, so there's nothing for anyone to look at.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:27, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

SO i am currently working on a draft of a noted Doctor and i had few paper clippings featuring him. I wanted to know if i can upload along with the draft or not? These paper clips are from the digital newspaper as well as Print media which are accessible to common public. Medauthor (talk) 20:10, 25 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Bibhakar Ranjan, from its old location at User:Medauthor/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. ~Liance^talk 00:37, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Medauthor. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Bibhakar Ranjan, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template), including links or details of reliable sources that support your suggestions;
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 11:40, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Belbury Thank you for your message. My goal is to contribute to Wikipedia in a way that aligns with its guidelines on verifiability and neutrality. The draft is based on reliable, independent sources that establish notability.

I understand the importance of avoiding any promotional tone and ensuring neutrality. If there are specific areas that need improvement or additional citations, I’m happy to collaborate with experienced editors to refine the draft. I will also follow the best practices outlined in Wikipedia’s COI policy by:

Ensuring all information is well-sourced and neutral.

Using the Talk Page for suggested changes if necessary.

Complying with Wikipedia’s content policies at all times.

I appreciate any feedback on how to further improve the draft. Looking forward to your guidance.

Regards

Please do "disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles" if you have a personal or professional connection to Bibhakar Ranjan. And if he is paying you to write the article then you must declare this under WP:PAID. Belbury (talk) 16:31, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"Thank you for reaching out. I want to clarify that I have no personal or professional connection to Dr. Bibhakar Ranjan, nor have I been paid or compensated in any way for my contributions. My edits were made in good faith using reliable proven sources available on internet to improve Wikipedia's coverage of notable individuals in dentistry and artificial intelligence.

I am happy to address any concerns regarding neutrality, sources, or formatting to ensure the article meets Wikipedia’s standards. Please let me know if any improvements are needed. Medauthor (talk) 16:37, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Bibhakar Ranjan (March 31)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Rahmatula786 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:

Lacks Notability. Promotional contents and tone need to be improved.

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:Bibhakar Ranjan 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.
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.

Dear @Rahmatula786,

Thank you for reviewing my draft and for your valuable feedback. I understand the importance of upholding Wikipedia’s content policies, particularly regarding notability and neutrality.

However, I would like to respectfully clarify why Dr. Bibhakar Ranjan meets Wikipedia’s notability criteria for people as outlined in WP:N. His work as a leading expert in oral and dental health has been widely covered by independent, reliable sources across multiple countries, including Seychelles and India.

International Media Recognition: Dr. Ranjan has been interviewed and featured multiple times by India Today (a major Indian publication with over 20 million social media followers) and The Indian Express (one of India’s oldest and most respected newspapers). His insights on oral cancer, artificial intelligence in dentistry, and preventive healthcare have been sought after by these leading outlets.
National Coverage in Seychelles: In Seychelles, he has authored numerous articles and has been featured extensively in Seychelles News Agency, Today in Seychelles, and Seychelles Nation—all of which are major national newspapers. His interviews in Seychelles Nation have consistently focused on his expertise and contributions over a long period.
Frequent Television & Radio Appearances: He has been a regular guest on Seychelles National Television (SBC), Telesesel, and Pure FM, where he has shared expert advice, not just on dentistry but also on broader public health concerns, including during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Recognized by International Institutions: He was awarded the World’s Top 100 Doctors Award (2022) by the Global Summit Institute, USA. Additionally, he has been appointed Continental President & International Ambassador of the Dental AI Association (DAIA), an esteemed American organization selecting only a few distinguished professionals globally. Given that Seychelles has a population of just around 100,000, which is quite a smaller country in comparison to India, America or Nepal, so this recognition is significant at both national and international levels.

Considering this substantial coverage in independent and widely recognized media, along with international accolades and leadership positions in notable organizations, I firmly believe Dr. Ranjan meets the notability guidelines for Wikipedia.

However, I do acknowledge that I am relatively new to editing Wikipedia pages, and I appreciate any guidance on improving the article’s tone and structure to ensure it aligns with Wikipedia’s neutrality standards. I assure you that my intent was never to make the article sound promotional, and I am happy to refine it further to remove any unintentional promotional language.

I would greatly appreciate your advice on the specific areas that require improvement to ensure the article meets Wikipedia’s requirements. Looking forward to your response.

Best regards,
