Your submission at Articles for creation: Kabobo Massif (January 5)

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

Nowhere near enough sources or information to be accepted.

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:Kabobo Massif 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.

@Mattdaviesfsic how many sources are needed for a geographic site? some other geographic regions, such as the Bakossi Mountains of Cameroon, have very few sources. The purpose of this page is to provide context for the distribution of endemic taxa such as Kabobo Apalis, which was recently misattributed to the nearby Itombwe Highlands in Wikipedia. Buteogallus (talk) 22:34, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There's no hard-and-fast rule on the number of sources, but see the second grey box: it needs "significant coverage" in reliable sources. It needs to demonstrate how it's notable enough for a WP article. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 06:06, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ca ^{talk to me!} 08:02, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the awesome article!

I cannot access most of the book sources, so just make sure you aren't conflating two very different people. The birth date in this, does not match the birth date on the article. Ca ^{talk to me!} 08:04, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much for the catch, this was a typo on my part. 1871 is the correct birth date according to Find-A-Grave.com - I added a citation to this source next to his death location. Buteogallus (talk) 14:16, 7 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Hilry Huckaby III (January 5)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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:Hilry Huckaby III 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.

Paul Vaurie (talk) 05:28, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much for the feedback, Paul. I've worked to make the article more neutral and have resubmitted it. If there's anything else specific you would advise I work on or change, please let me know. Buteogallus (talk) 12:48, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nebraska Ornithologists' Union moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Nebraska Ornithologists' Union. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. JTtheOG (talk) 17:46, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@JTtheOG thanks for the feedback! I'll work on getting some more citations together before resubmitting. Buteogallus (talk) 18:19, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
