Previous account

Hello! Are you associated with the previous account JSG intern that also created a draft article for Davina Semo?ThatMontrealIP (talk) 23:43, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Thanks for checking in about this. I think I am coincidentally associated with this JSG intern account as when I saw it was trying to get a Davina Semo page up, I decided to help out. I'm from the SF area and learned about Semo's work through her shows here. I've been following her since about 2015 and I think she's a wonderful artist. When I saw that it was trying to make a page for Davina Semo a few weeks ago, I helped edit that initial page. When the Semo page was deleted, I decided to try and make a page for her on my own last week. Hopefully that clears it up. Also, sorry for the late response. I'll be better about checking my talk page from now on. Erica.Mansilver (talk) 17:23, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not particularly believable, but thanks for the effort.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 18:26, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what's unbelievable about my explanation, and I apologize if you feel I've done something wrong. But, if you have any suggestions for how I can get a Wikipedia page for this awesome artist, I'm all ears. I've still relatively new to Wikipedia, and I'd appreciate some advice for how to get information out about Davina Semo.Erica.Mansilver (talk) 19:09, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your "coincidental association" doesn't account for the fact that you're editing from the same IP and device to continue to the same promotional edits as User:JSG Intern. As you are clearly the same individual, or someone working in close association with them, your account has been blocked for abuse of multiple accounts. -- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:19, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:19, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Davina Semo (October 6)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please read the notability guidelines for an artist to have a biography on Wikipedia. It seems that Semo doesn't yet meet the criteria.

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:Davina Semo 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:Davina Semo, 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.

Hello, Erica.Mansilver! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! MurielMary (talk) 08:41, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Davina Semo

I had a look at your draft for Davina Semo. She doesn't meet the notability requirements, yet. If you can dig up a couple more in-depth sources (like the Brooklyn Rail article I added), then she might. Otherwise, you'll need to wait a few years. You also have not answered the COI question above: are you working for her gallery?ThatMontrealIP (talk) 15:26, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again! Thank you for taking a look at this. I will do my best to edit this further. Maybe I can dig up more articles as well. If not, I will wait like you've suggested. And I answered the COI question a few minutes ago. Thank you again! Erica.Mansilver (talk) 17:26, 11 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
