Your submission at Articles for creation: Linda Proud (March 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 JSFarman was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

To establish notability, references via reliable, independent, sources which provide extensive coverage of Linda Proud are required. The sources used provide trivial coverage (or listings), or are not independent of Linda Proud, or are from publications which would not be considered reliable. Are there reviews of her books? Anything from a national or regional publication? Also, the tone in places is a bit hypey. Also, this needs to be substantiated via a reliable source. "Proud is renowned for the quality and depth of her research, which is often based on primary sources.[4] As a result, her work is deeply rooted in historical fact, and she has a strong following among the academic communities of both the United Kingdom and North America."

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.
