  • Comment: Several rejections later, and still no notability has been shown. SL93 (talk) 00:34, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO) but presently does not. As other reviewers have noted, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable . Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see referencing for beginners. Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft- presently the draft would be (at best) WP:TOOSOON- there's just insufficient reliable sources. If you feel you can meet these requirements then resubmit the page and ping me and I would be happy to reassess. Cabrils (talk) 02:11, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: As MurielMary has commented, the article does not establish notability (WP:NCREATIVE), verifiable via significant coverage about the subject in reliable, independent sources. The article's current references mainly derives from the subject's own work (by her, not about her), from PR/publicity outputs, and from interviews/podcasts (Note: interviews are primary sources – Wikipedia requires secondary source material). This may also just be WP:TOOSOON. Paul W (talk) 15:37, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: Thanks for creating this draft – you need to make a statement of your conflict of interest on your talk page and on the talk page of this article. Also the subject doesn't meet the notability criteria for a writer to have an article on Wikipedia. MurielMary (talk) 23:55, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please abide by Wikipedia's WP:NPOV policy and remove all external links from the article body. Best regards, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 22:25, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
  • Comment: not clear how they pass WP:NWRITER and we don't use external links in the body of an article Theroadislong (talk) 08:26, 8 October 2021 (UTC)

Jessica Urlichs (born 30 November 1987) is a New Zealand poet and author[1]. Her first three self-published poetry books were based on motherhood. Her first of two children's books was based on emotions and reached number one on the best seller children's book list in New Zealand in April 2021, followed by her book on parenthood "You Hung the Moon", which also reached number one in Australia and New Zealand in 2023.

Publications

[edit]

Her first book From One Mom to a Mother was written during the COVID-19 Pandemic in New Zealand, followed by her second book All I See is You. Her third in the series My After All was released later in 2021.[2]

In April 2021, Urlichs' children’s book about emotions The Rainbow in My Heart,[3] published by Hachette and illustrated by Rebekah Ballagh, was launched at the Christchurch City Council's Libraries.[4] This became the number one Children's Book in New Zealand for one week in April 2021[5] and in October that same year, it was included in the Whitcoulls New Zealand Kid's Top 50 books for the year gift-giving guide.[6] Her second children's book My Superpowers was a change of theme from her previous book, which demonstrates and enables conversations with parent and child about non-cognitive skills.[7] In 2023 her book published by Hachette NZ[8], named You Hung the Moon, became a number one best seller in Australia and New Zealand in 2023. In 2024, Urlichs teamed up with award-winning illustrator Minrui Yang, to release Let me be Frank and her most recent children's book Patrick and George, published by Wildling Books.

In late 2022, Urlichs has been signed by Penguin UK[9], and in 2024 reached best seller status with her book Beautiful Chaos, a selection of Urlichs best poems from her three self published poetry books on motherhood.
