Please help me with... making my article live on wikipedia. I wrote an article on Sh. Nathi Singh, a nonagenarian and a renowned Indian politician from the state of Rajasthan in India. I followed all the best practices and the article is still not live. Can you help in someway please. There is a large audience that is keen to know about his life's work and would be interested to know about the his background and work. Aparnasingh.99 (talk) 09:59, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello - it's not live because you've not submitted it for review at articles for creation. I can submit it for you if you would like, but there are a couple of aspects that should be fixed first to help your chances. One is to remove external links in the main text of the draft - you have some going to pdfs, that if relevant, should be added either as citations or as external links at the bottom of the page. The other is things like the term "freedom fighter", that are inherently non-neutral terms. Let me know below when you'd like me to submit it Nosebagbear (talk) 12:28, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for the suggestions. I have made edits accordingly. Can you please submit this for creation now? Aparnasingh.99 (talk) 18:01, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As you appear to have moved it directly to article status this isn't necessary at this point. Nosebagbear (talk) 15:07, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I moved my article 'Nathi Singh' to the mainspace 8 hours ago but i still cannot find it when I search for it. Can someone please highlight why it's not visible or how long does it take? Aparnasingh.99 (talk) 03:52, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Aparnasingh.99 - normally posting on your own user talk page will not have anyone see it to answer your questions. I only saw it because I had watchlisted it to see your response above. If you have questions go to WP:Teahouse.

It is not searchable until it has been patrolled- checked by an experienced user to see that it passes the minimum rules. This can take some weeks. Then it will take however long for google to index it (normally a day or two after it's been patrolled). Nosebagbear (talk) 15:08, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As an experienced user, would it be possible for you to patrol-check it and move it to mainspace if it meets the minimum rules? Thanks in advance Aparnasingh.99 (talk) 17:50, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
