WP:ARBPIA 500:30

What does the WP:ARBPIA 500:30 rule entail? If I can't publish the page myself, may another individual who fulfills the 500:30 demand publish it in my name? Zentarov (talk) 19:07, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

@Zentarov: I see Selfstudier has since added the relevant templates to your talk page which explain the 500 / 30 rule.

To get another editor to review, I suggest following WP:AFC.

Note that there were a number of areas that your draft article will need to have worked on, mostly relating to balance. It read as an advocacy case for one side of an argument, rather than as a balanced encyclopedia article.
