Your submission at Articles for creation: Mike Greene (British Entrepreneur) (May 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 I dream of horses were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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:

We need five sources, give or take two.

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 when they have been resolved.

Mike Greene (British entrepreneur)

Now live. Thanks for starting it.

There's still plenty to work on. Coverage of the E&J empire, together with James Tuttiett for one. We could use a serious article on the freehold rent profiteering problem in England. (Couldn't find one). Also his early business career, a market research company called HIM which he sold in 2012 and was where he became rich. Prior to that, I think there's a bankruptcy too.
