icon Hello, I'm B.J. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Michael Shapcott seemed less than neutral to me, so I removed it for now. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ‎ — B.J (talk) 12:55, 7 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Information icon Hello, I'm Vydrakk. I noticed that you changed content about a living or recently deceased person on Matt Montgomery (cricketer), but didn't support your changes with a reliable source. Wikipedia has strict policy on how we write about living people to keep such articles accurate and clear, so your change has been removed and archived in the page history for now. If you think I made a mistake or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my talk page. Thank you! Vydrakk (talk) 06:55, 11 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I simply added the fact that the player was born in South Africa. This is already supported by this page , which has already been cited. Tufflikethat (talk) 07:11, 11 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: Durban Preparatory High School (July 8)

Draft declined
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.
Feedback
The reviewer, Qcne, left the following feedback:
This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for schools. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:
  • provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like sports results, league tables, government inspection reports, and listings in databases or listicles;
  • are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
  • are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

Individual faculties, departments, and student clubs are rarely notable on their own. You could add this content to the main educational institution article if one exists instead.

Next steps

  • Edit Draft:Durban Preparatory High School to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
  • When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
  • If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it may be deleted.

If no human author is given, the fields should be removed. (Fix | Ask for help). Below are the references causing this error:

This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for organizations and companies. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:
  • provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like product launches, staff appointments, or financial reports and listings in databases or listicles;
  • are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
  • are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.
Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.
Primary sources do not establish notability per WP:ORG, we need to see significant coverage, directly of this school (and not of related matters such as events held there, or the performance of their sports team) in multiple secondary sources that are reliable and entirely independent of the subject. This draft cites no such source.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Gobioclinus gobio, a link pointing to the disambiguation page Pore was added. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ  Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
