Your submission at Articles for creation: Brian Weil Draft (July 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 Jamiebuba 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.

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:Brian Weil Draft 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.

Hi Dr Carrotflower!

I'm the grumpy old editor who reverted your work on Sara Flower. If you have any questions about it, please contact me. There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers.

I checked up on a later edit, the subject with which I think you were more comfortable. I guess Sara Flower was something thrown at you with the injunction "improve it". Anyhow, on to the current topic, which I won't touch, but offer a few tips.

"Curly quotes", as in “The Way West,” are deprecated. Change them to the straight quotes, as on a computer keyboard. "The Way West". And I don't think there would have been a comma in the title of the PBS series. Logically not.
And when you invoke a wikilink, check that it does not inadvertently lead to an irrelevant article or to a disambiguation page. The Jungle Book links to the Rudyard Kipling classic, not the Walt Disney film or one of several live-action films. Presumably not the "dab page" as some old Wikipedians call the list of related articles.
Oh, and another thing: titles of major works: films, books, albums. They are italicized, using two single quotes, So Handel's Messiah or Queen's A Night at the Opera or the Marx Brothers' A Night at the Opera (but not songs - even grandiose ones like Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus" or Mercury's "Bohemian Rhapsody" - they get ordinary double quotes)

Oh, and I'm not an expert or admin, just someone who felt guilty correcting someone who's probably smarter and almost certainly younger. Doug butler (talk) 07:19, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
