Hello, I'm Mcmatter. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, IT service management, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hi Mcmatter. Thank you for the message. I see that you removed the citation on IT service management. I have a question about why citation 12 in the article is allow to stay? In my opinion, either both should stay or neither should stay. Is it a matter of using the wrong page as a citation and should be using the homepage of the citation's website like https://www.bswi.com/ did, and not the Help Desk page of which the citation is about?

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. [1] MrOllie (talk) 10:30, 30 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: André François van Vuuren (July 9)

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

If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This is promotionally written, likely written by a fan or a paid editor. The subject fails WP:NARTIST and WP:ANYBIO. We need either proof that the subject's work is in multiple permanent collections of notable museums or multiple independent newspapers/books about him. (Interviews don't count.)
