Your submission at Articles for creation: Peter Hore (July 5)

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

Hell, you are completely misunderstanding how Referencing works here. The footnotes are absolutely not for "I just mentioned a thing, so here's a link to that thinks Wikipedia page or website". Footnotes are for providing evidence that a given fact is true, but citing a reliable media or academic source. I strongly advise you read WP:Referencing for beginners, a great basic guide on how to source articles. Please make your changes based on that, the click Resubmit.

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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Peter Hore (1944-) – naval officer, historian and obituarist. (August 13)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This is a promising draft but is improperly sourced. References in Wikipedia are used for two things:

To demonstrate the notability of the subject by referencing independent sources discuss them (e.g. [1][2])
Allowing readers to verify the information of the article by providing citations to reliable sources that directly support individual passages of text

At the moment your draft uses references mainly to point the reader to additional information, which is what wikilinks are for. You should never reference Wikipedia in Wikipedia, and references to external sites that offer more information on a subject but don't actually support the information in the article should be gathered into an external links section.

If you edit the draft to remove improperly used "further information" references, and add references that demonstrate the notability of Hore and support the information in the article, I've no doubt it would make a valuable addition to 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:Peter Hore (1944-) – naval officer, historian and obituarist. and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Peter Hore (December 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 Onel5969 was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

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:Peter Hore and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
