Your submission at Articles for creation: British Culture Archive (January 27)

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

According to this draft:

British Culture Archive is a non-profit organisation and platform for British documentary photography based in Manchester, UK. [...] The British Culture Archive crowdsourced the People's Archive, established in 2017 for crowdsourced images of everyday life in Britain.

But according to britishculturearchive.co.uk:

British Culture Archive is the online resource for The People’s Archive, a non-profit organisation set up to document, highlight and preserve the changes in British culture and society through documentary photography.

Now, it's conceivable that some intern or other harried person at britishculturearchive.co.uk has got the facts the wrong way around, but this seems very unlikely.

Until I edited it, the article said:

The British Culture Archive crowdsourced archive The People's Archive was established in 2017 as an important documentation of crowdsourced images of everyday life in Britain.

I could hardly parse that, and guessed that it meant:

The British Culture Archive crowdsourced the People's Archive, established in 2017 for crowdsourced images of everyday life in Britain.

and tentatively reworded it accordingly. However, this crowdfunding page suggests that British Culture Archive was an organization (calling itself not an "organisation" or an "NPO" but instead a "resource") that crowdfunded itself and (at that point) was only dreaming of a People's Archive.

So what happened? This is a promising draft about what looks like a worthwhile and notable organization/website/archive, but more clarity is needed before launch as an article.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Paul Wright (curator) (October 31)

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

To demonstrate individual notability, there needs to be significant coverage from independent, secondary sources that focus on Wright as a curator of the archive rather than the archive that Wright curates. Failing that, it might be appropriate to redirect his name to the archive. Best

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.
