websites/preferences

It is well worth considering usages that are common in library catalogues, and other external locations of information, internal self referencing of an organisation can be problematic... JarrahTree 05:51, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @JarrahTree,

Thank you for the warm welcome and constructive feedback. I will definitely expand the references used in the articles I have been editing and attempt to find sources outside of the club's websites and publications, as I understand it is not best practice.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Peninsula Field Naturalists' Club (September 12)

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. 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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Peninsula Field Naturalists' Club and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
