Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to The Passion of the Christ. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 14:28, 14 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Wonderful Dizzy (July 3)

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

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Wonderful Dizzy and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Wonderful Dizzy, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Wonderful Dizzy (July 14)

The comment the reviewer left was:

I still don't see enough here to establish notability (at least from the sources given). Most of the sources are simply game summaries/reviews. Also, they need to be careful with WP:NPOV, as phrases like "with the blessing" and pointing out that it has significant graphics improvements over it's predecessors can make it seem like the information is not being added from a neutral point of view.

Hello, I'm Cerebral726. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person on Bill Watterson, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Cerebral726 (talk) 15:37, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. No harm done. I was warned that the first citation was not from a reliable source and so i added a second one (for which i did not receive any warning!).

Still, i think it's for the better that you removed it. Soon, after submit it, i recall how much the artist praises it's privacy and as such it's better this info is not available in a place like wikipedia. I will not resubmit it. :) thank you!

Keep up the good job :) Merlinux (talk) 14:48, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
