Your submission at Articles for creation: Lisa Christie (July 10)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft has tone issues as well as notability issues. Please do not make statements like "Lisa is one of the nations top fitness experts!" in the voice of 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:Lisa Christie and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Comment at Teahouse

I wanted to let you know I removed your comment from the Teahouse due to the multiple personal attacks you had in it towards an editor. Please when asking your question refrain from making such attacks, and allow your question to focus on the issue you may have. RickinBaltimore (talk) 18:06, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I'd be more than happy to discuss what the article you created may need in order to be published, feel free to reach out to me if you wish. RickinBaltimore (talk) 18:08, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I noticed your question in the Teahouse history, and though I had nothing to do with the situation, I thought I’d try and clear something up for you: Lisa Christie, or anyone else, does not have to do anything to be deemed worthy of a Wikipedia article. Notability has nothing at all to do with the person herself. It has everything to do with reliable sources reporting on the person in some significant capacity. That is, publishers and academics and the news media, not Wikipedia editors, decide whether someone or something deserves an article. In this case, it appears that while Christie is involved in a notable news story, Christie herself is not notable outside of that story. I encourage you to carefully read through our notability guidelines at Wikipedia:Notability for more information. Take care. —67.14.236.50 (talk) 01:58, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Lisa Christie

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Lisa Christie, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Nicole Bilderback, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 18:16, 12 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment to Joseph2302

Hi Knowledge searcher 1, a warning: I just stumbled upon the rant/attack/threat you posted on Joseph2302's talk page here: [1]. I don't know why he didn't slap you with a warning right away; I assume he's just busy with actually improving the encyclopedia and/or gets to see a lot of these acts and has developed a thick skin. However, let me tell you that this kind of behaviour is completely unacceptable on Wikipedia. You do not get to threaten other editors in this way. If this happens again, I do not have the slightest doubt that you will be immediately banned from editing. - Best of luck with the article. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 12:31, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agree with Elmidae, don't threaten other editors. For what it's worth, I stopped reading after the first 2 lines as I was busy, but most of what you posted was plain wrong. I don't only accept articles from friends and people who pay for it- I, along with most Wikipedians, are strongly against paid articles. Also, Wikipedia doesn't have staff, it has volunteers- volunteers who tend not to bother helping people that just abuse them. Good luck with the article, which I didn't delete anyway, but make sure it meets Wikipedia's notability criteria and is neutral tone- these are the two ways in which articles on Wikipedia are judged.
