Your submission at Articles for creation: Bengt Gustaf Olsson (September 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 Theroadislong 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 (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:

not enough independent coverage, private communications and discussions are of no use either all content needs to be published.

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.

How do you know Bengt Gustaf Olsson? —SmokeyJoe (talk) 07:20, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

He was my father BeowulfSE (talk) 07:34, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. That’s a clear cut Conflict of Interest for you to make neutral edits or additions. You should not edit the article directly, but instead make suggestions on the talk page. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 08:05, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll keep my hands off! BeowulfSE (talk) 08:12, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the article COI tag (apparent), and applied a talk page tag that gives your username and relationship.

Feel free to make suggestions on the talk page. WP:Ping me of no one notices. The same advice applies to adding links to him from other articles. They are very desirable, but not for a COI editor to add themself. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 08:19, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

OK understands this better now. Thanks for your help. Hopefully others will chip in with more information about the subject! BeowulfSE (talk) 08:34, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please do try to add information to related topics. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 09:30, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
