Help me - I have written a short biography draft on Paul Rantao, a prominent Politician in Botswana. I am not sure how to navigate to an article about another person as opposed to an article about self. I was merely creating my account before I wrote and published the article. Now I am told that I cannot write about myself, which is not my intention. Please help me to title the page appropriately. This page will be open to any editor to add or edit information.

@Bandie Rantao:, thanks for the message. Trust me, I understand how Wikipedia can be confusion, especially when first starting. First, I would steer you to WP:COI, the guideline that talks about conflicts of interest. It is okay if you have one, but it is best to disclose such. Second, review WP:FIRST as this will help guide you in how to start the draft. Currently there are no sources in the draft which is why it was declined by another user. I did a quick search and see the person is mentioned in a lot of sources, namely in Google Books. This would be a good start for sourcing (Google Books that is). Finally, I the notice about it being an autobiography is just a guide for you, not necessarily a warning. It helps inform you of some guidelines and policies to keep in mind if you should be the subject of the page (although it sounds like WP:COI would be the better link based on your above disclosure). If you need help navigating after reading those guidelines and adding sources, please let me know. Good luck!--CNMall41 (talk) 19:13, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi again, I hope you can help me. Where do I go to disclose a conflict of interest? I went to the page WP:COI but I cannot navigate my way to the link for that. Bandie Rantao (talk) 03:32, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,I am sorry I couldn't reply you at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vanvaas in time. I was away for a while. What I meant was, I could feel that notability issue was not there, going through discussion. But as release date was only a few days away, deleting the article altogether could have been avoided. It was there throughout when no release date was even announced, and no one knew when.Awsib (talk) 16:22, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what you are saying. The discussion was closed and then the page was bludgeoned back to mainspace a few days later. This is the reason why I will no longer advocate to draftify pages that don't meet guidelines. --CNMall41 (talk) 17:28, 17 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You marked the request as done without closing the request, next time, make sure to change the "answered=no"(or "ans=no") parameter to "answered=yes" (or "ans=yes"). I have done this for you, just remember to make sure you close requests when you answer them. Shadow311 (talk) 18:25, 16 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Firstly, thanks for response so quickly. As previously this page of Tina Dabi was rejected, i don't know how much the content that page accomodated at that time. So i can't comment on that. But as far as my creation of this page is concerned, it is well structured, cover all the major policy required for the any page such notability, GNG , Varifibility, etc. It has her all government posts , her govt led program, popularity, controversy etc. Probably there is not a single Reputable newspaper of india left who independently won't cover her at different different events. I mentioned all of them at very NPOV. So I request you to please take a time for review this article. i am sure it will definately qualify to be here as a article. Thanks. Much Regards.

@Callmehelper:, Can you list the sources that have come out since the last AfD discussion which you feel cover her in-depth? Notability is not about how well a page is structured, it is about the sourcing. --CNMall41 (talk) 00:17, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@CNMall41 , its me @Callmehelper Its about Tina Dabi Something got wrong here. i can't reply to you . it seems invisible for me. it's not working.

Rbofficial17 (talk) 03:20, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Rbofficial17:, thank you for the disclosure. I am willing to assist in any way I can based on your transparency. Since you do have a conflict of interest, disclosure would be required per WP:COI. I made the disclosure for you on the talk page of the draft. I also left a notice at the task force talk page here as there are experienced editors who will be able to provide a second opinion and assist in the draft.In the meantime I would advise reading WP:FIRST. --CNMall41 (talk) 04:52, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
hi now I have added the Critical response also added there links in it and edited some text which was not grammatically correct and also added the link of the official song released on YouTube Rbofficial17 (talk) 16:54, 20 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The Keep comments annoyed me because they seemed superficially correct, and overlooked the restricted definition of notability and so of significant coverage of unreleased films. I had other things to be doing also, but I thought that one was likely to get through otherwise. At least I didn't have to do machine translation, which I often do on these unreleased Indian films. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:55, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Congrats on the move as well (stalked your talk page). The film space, especially surrounding India and Pakistan is getting very frustrating, especially with many editors overlooking the UPE and SOCK bludgeoning (not necessarily applicable to this AfD). Note that one of the Keep votes is a SOCK and based on this I can tie to them to another sock farm. Just not pursuing as for some reason I cannot seem to get anyone's attention willing to look at behavioral evidence instead of relying solely on CU evidence. --CNMall41 (talk) 18:33, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is a great edit as it reduced the plot. As far as the cast, no issues with adding as long as they are actually part of the cast and can be verified. --CNMall41 (talk) 23:28, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Pacha Group page update
Hi there, hope you're well. I see you have reverted the Pacha Group page due to concerns about promotional tone, thanks for pointing that out. I ran the updated text by one of the other mods (Mean as custard) yesterday, who was confident it was ok to publish. I'm more than happy to work on it some more. Are there any particular parts that need work, or should be removed altogether? Thankyou. Appreciate your input here. Mgoldenbarnes (talk) 08:40, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Mgoldenbarnes:, They did not approve what you wrote as-is. We can keep the discussion on their talk page since it started there. If you would, please address the question that was posed about COI and PAID. Once you do that, we can move forward with a discussion. --CNMall41 (talk) 08:42, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
