<big>'''Wait! The single most common answer here is that you need more [[WP:reliable sources|reliable sources]] to demonstrate the subject is [[WP:notable|notable]] and to support the claims made in the article. You must find reliable sources needed for your proposed article ''before posting here''. You may wish to read [[Wikipedia:The answer to life, the universe, and everything|this page]] before posting as well. These links may help in finding sources:

*For a simple outline of what a Wikipedia article requires, see '''[[WP:The answer to life, the universe, and everything|The answer to life]]'''.
 
*For guidance on writing good articles, see '''[[WP:YFA|Your First Article]]''', '''[[Wikipedia:Article development|Article Development]]''', '''[[Wikipedia:The perfect article|The Perfect Article]]''', '''[[Wikipedia:Writing better articles|Writing Better Articles]]''', and the '''[[WP:MOS|Manual of Style]]'''. You may also find the '''[[Wikipedia:Article wizard|Article Wizard]]''' useful for starting a new article.
 
* For established articles that may be almost ready for [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|Featured Article Candidacy]], you should request a [[Wikipedia:Peer review|Peer Review]].
 
* For new articles that are currently in your [[WP:USERSPACE|userspace]], or that you have a [[Wikipedia:So you made a userspace draft|draft]] of, please read Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:N|notability guideline]].
 
* All articles need to have [[WP:V|verifiable]] information shown through the use of [[WP:CITE|footnote citations]].

'''To post a new request for feedback on an article:'''
 
#'''[[WP:CHEATSHEET|Link]]''' to the article you want feedback for when asked in the box below.
 
#'''Write a brief summary''' of your work, but do ''not'' post the whole article here.
 
#If you have rewritten an existing article, you may wish to provide a [[WP:DIFF|'''diff link''']] from that article's history that shows your changes.
 
#'''Check regularly''' for responses to your request. You might consider <span class="plainlinks">'''[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|action=watch}} adding this page]'''</span> to your [[WP:watchlist|watchlist]].

* Remember people helping you here are volunteers and their time is scarce, so if you haven't already, please take the time to read the help available to you before posting here, for example [[Wikipedia:Tutorial]], [[Wikipedia:Your first article]], and [[Wikipedia:Writing better articles]]. You could also review [[Wikipedia:So you made a user subpage draft]] before posting – this offers good advice for improvement even if you've already posted your new article live, especially if you haven't used the [[Wikipedia:Article wizard|Article Wizard]] (carefully).
 
* <font color="red">Please note that this page is patrolled by volunteer editors just like you and it may take several days or longer for us to review your request.</font>
