Hi Rava77. Thanks for your comment about my question on the Commons: Help Desk regarding Adding an image with consent from the owner. I like your idea about first developing the article in my user space and inviting experienced editors to review it. How do I go about doing that? I generated a draft article, Draft:Athenasphere. Is that the same thing as what you suggested? I don't see where I can invite editors. Thanks in advance for your help. --Adisciu (talk) 18:07, 19 January 2017 (UTC)

You just create a normal article, but in your namespace, e.g. User:Adisciu/Athenasphere, then you edit it as good as you can, be sure to add some references from 2nd-ary sources (not just from the primary source the article is about) See here: en:WP:PRIMARY.

I don't see where I can invite editors - You have to look into the user pages of users you encountered so far and then ponder if they might be helpful, or not, to what you have planed. I know of no other way doing so. Being humble and polite sure would help. Cheers. --Rava77 (talk) 18:28, 19 January 2017 (UTC)
