Your submission at Articles for creation: Hunger Relief International (October 22)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by K.e.coffman were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for 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:Hunger Relief International 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:Hunger Relief International, 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.

I fail to see how the HRI article reads like an advertisement. I worked a long time to get it neutral and in large part believe I accomplished this. If it wasn't neutral in select areas, perhaps a contribution could have been made rather than a summary rejection and tag that it was unworthy to be posted on a user-generated wiki? I'm fairly new to wikipedia and want to learn more and help out as much as I can. But I'm completely flummoxed how some pages can get approved while ones like mine can be dumped.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_the_Hungry has almost zero content and it was accepted. ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed_the_Children contains 6 out of 14--or nearly half of all references--going back to it's own website (obvious self-promotion). HRI has only 2 of 8 references going to its website (for financials and charitable work referencing).

In addition to Feed the Children's roughly 50% of links promoting their homepage, FTC lists charity watch organizations like Guidestar and two local news channel websites. (Those two news references, by the way, were about the fraudulent activities of the president and founder of Feed the Children--not for anything great they were doing).

Hunger Relief International only has 25% of references pointing back to its site (again: for financial info and charity work), but then goes on to list charity watch groups like Guidestar, followed by CNN, Forbes, and two separate non-profits.

I have no part with HRI--neither as donor, volunteer, employee, contractor, member, user, etc.--but if FTC and FTH's article is passable, how does HRI get a "nein?"

Thank you and I appreciate your help.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.
