Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 17:36, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Chukwuma C. Ogbaga (September 24)

Your recent article submission has been rejected and cannot be resubmitted. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by SafariScribe was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Seek advice first before I can unreject this.

Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 07:40, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Safari Scribe, thank you for your comment. The subject is quite notable in the area of biotechnology in Nigeria and is currently being considered for a top leadership position. I added secondary sources to refer to each point as suggested. Secondly, there are similar subjects that have been included in wikipedia. For instance, https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olugbenro_Oyekan

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Ifeoma_Nwoye

and many others.

Kindly reconsider and unreject this.

Best regards

You have constantly resubmitted and never pay attention to the reviewer's comment. Above is his page at Simple Wikipedia, which has its own policies and guidelines. You should read WP:NPROF to check whether he meets the threshold. Also, if you have any connection with what you write here, you are to abide by the rules at WP:COI and Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure. Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 08:36, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response. He meets criteria 1, 4, 6 & 7. Regarding COI and paid disclosure, I do not have any conflict of interest to declare and definitely not paid to create the page. I attended an Energy Symposium in Abuja and the subject was one of the panelists. He spoke on renewable energy, CO2 emissions and link to biotechnology. I was surprised that he did not have a Wikipedia page and decided to create one. You could advise further if you need additional information. Kindly reconsider and unreject this. Thanks AlexCollins4u (talk) 08:58, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Chukwuma C. Ogbaga (October 12)

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

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and 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:

Thank you for editing the citekill away and for removing the Wikidata item, whcih can be linked to after this is accepted.

I have examined the references. I am not persuaded that he passes WP:NPROF (yet) after a detailed examination. I am going to resubmit on your behalf to "override" the rejection, but I am also going to decline the draft for the reasons that will be stated in the decline box. Please read that together with this comment

It seems to me that we are WP:TOOSOON in his career. You are welcome to ask other reviewers to take a look.

The references are your problem. Read WP:NPROF with care. Your only job is to prove that he passes it, something you can only do with references.

It's not more references that are required, it's better references, ones that prove his notability beyond doubt. He may just be too early in his career, so do not lose hope. 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 21:04, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
