Deletion discussion about Anne Quito

Hello, Drowneded,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Stevey7788 and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Anne Quito should be deleted. Your comments are welcome over Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anne Quito .

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Stevey7788}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

{{Re|Stevey7788}} Hi Stevey7788,

Thanks for starting the discussion. As you may have guessed, I'm relatively new to Wikipedia. So there may be existing discussions about this elsewhere of which I'm not aware, but it seems slightly less than welcoming to mark an article for deletion, as opposed to, say, recommending improvements. I understand the issue of having too many of the references be the subject's own work, however they're all sourced from different sites, and are representative of her range. With that said, I've added several more references and citations from outside sources, and hope that that will be enough to prevent deletion. I would hate to have one of the first articles I've taken time to create be deleted. That seems like a recipe for discouraging new Wikipedia users from continuing to participate.

Some baklava for you!

Hi. We're not unfriendly, just rule bound - for excellent reasons. Such as the fact that folks constantly try to use WP as a free advertising billboard. E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:54, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Here are 2 tips: 1.) Tell us something about yourself and your interests and expertise on your user page. the one you get to by clicking Drowneded. 2. If you are in the process of creating a new page, it's OK to do it live instead of in you sandbox. But if that is the approach you choose, you will find it handy to place the Template:In use at the top of page. You build the page to the point where it will satisfy WP:GNG, then remove the tag. You'll find it more convenient than having a page you just started creating brought to deletion discussion. Cheers, and welcome.E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:59, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Amanda Kolson Hurley (June 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Scope creep 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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Amanda Kolson Hurley 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:Amanda Kolson Hurley, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" 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.
If you need any assistance, 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.

COI check for Curbed

Hello. Do you have any connection to the real estate website Curbed? MrsSnoozyTurtle 03:32, 30 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. No, I do not. I do read a lot of their posts, though. It looks like you've taken down a post that I spent a lot of time improving at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Alissa_Walker - this is frustrating. The person in question had been deemed not notable. I made an effort to flesh out the post and prove notability. Now the post is removed again because of concern over fan POV? This seems like an unwinnable battle: Don't write enough and the person is deemed not notable. Write too much and you're branded a fan, thus whatever you've written is dismissed out of hand.

I'm struggling to see any news articles about Walker (rather than by her, or interviews where she's talking about something else). Is she possibly a notable author? i.e. has her book received multiple independent journalistic reviews?
