What do I need to know to get my article published on Wikipedia

Wikipedia is the encyclopedia that anyone can edit.... but you cannot publish just anything and you must cite what you write.

This video covers the main need-to-know information regarding Wikipedia's many policies and guidelines so that any article that is drafted meets the main requirements of its reviewing editors. New Page Patrol editors monitor new articles and check they adhere to Wikipedia's central tenets such as Wikipedia's policy on:

Notability
Verifiability
Neutral Point of View
No Original Research
Avoiding peacock words and weasel words.
Avoiding conflict of interest
and more.

This video is to make new editors aware of what reviewers are looking for and why articles are sometimes told they need to be worked on further, or speedily deleted.
