Your submission at Articles for creation: Jacaranda Books (January 11)

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

The founder of the publishing house might be notable but it looks like the house itself is not yet.

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:Jacaranda Books 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:Jacaranda Books, 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 need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Hello, Gatsbimantico! I see some independent refs for Jacaranda Books-

Towards the goal of greater inclusivity, Jacaranda Books have announced a 20/20 campaign.^[1]

Re the album "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin"^[2]

The writer Irenosen Okojie, whose short story collection Speak Gigantular will be out this June, comments that “it’s encouraging to see publishers like Darf, who publish Arabic works in translation, and Jacaranda Books and Influx Press, who are actively looking to publish writers of colour.”^[3]

And ^[4]

Hi there, congratulations on getting Jacaranda Books finally accepted as a wiki article- I'm disappointed it took quite so much time and effort, but it feels worthwhile now! I've been happy to chip in my occasional two ha'p'orth, and I'll gladly have a look at the authors you've pointed me at- hope I can help a bit!
