Your submission at Articles for creation: Harry Jerome Awards (June 16)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Bearcat 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 organizations and companies). 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 is still referenced far too much to primary sources that are not support for notability at all, and not nearly enough to proper WP:GNG-worthy reliable source coverage in media. Nine of the 17 footnotes here are the awards' own self-published website about itself (which is not support for notability), another is the directory entry of an archival fonds of the organization's own primary source records (which is not support for notability), two are government press releases (which are not support for notability), and one is a non-GNG-eligible WordPress blog (which is not support for notability) -- and of the just four footnotes that come from real media, one is from a recipient's own employer and thus still isn't entirely independent of the claim.
The notability test for inclusion in Wikipedia is not just "the information can be verified" -- it requires the verification to come from third-party media coverage in journalistic sources fully independent of the award's own self-created content.

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.
