This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not enough independent significant coverage.

Your submission at Articles for creation: McMaster Faculty of Humanities (April 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DoubleGrazing was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

No evidence of notability (independent of the university as a whole, that is). Note that while universities usually are notable, individual faculties/departments/schools etc. usually aren't.

I understand that this particular faculty may not seem notable, however, all the other 5 faculties have their own pages. Only the the faculty of humanities remains without a page, despite it's comparable size and visibility. Even sub-components of the faculty of humanities have their own pages.

It only dosen't have it's own page because education in the humanities to many it is still assumed to, in being a core function of the university, governed by some central authority of the institution -- which of course, it isn't. This page seeks to correct that misperception. AlanFBrooke (talk) 19:35, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion about Pamela E. Swett

Hello AlanFBrooke, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Pamela E. Swett, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pamela E. Swett.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Vanderwaalforces}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
