Notice

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has enacted a more stringent set of rules. Any administrator may impose sanctions – such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks – on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Proebsting's law (October 2)

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

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. 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:

This draft stub does not contain enough information to be encyclopedic. At present, it is less than a dictionary definition because it does not even say when optimization is not useful.

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Proebsting's law and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Do you have a specific concern with that site? It appears to be a fairly reputable site used for public communication by many different funeral homes, the specific funeral home posting that obituary certainly seems to exist (via Facebook and other search results), and both the domain WHOIS and archive.org trace the obituary site's history back to 1999.

While I concede it would be possible for someone to troll the security community by hacking this site, I don't think that's very likely--do you? demize (t · c) 00:59, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We also have confirmation from SecurityWeek now, which is a reputable third-party source, so I've added in that citation and restored the information regarding his death. demize (t · c) 01:13, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've not checked your sources but i trust your good faith. I think being a little late on wikipedia is better than being fooled. a good thing we've made (talk) 03:15, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
