Your submission at Articles for creation: Kusal Perera (April 14)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by I dream of horses were:

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.

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 people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

No independent sourcing at all.

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:Kusal Perera 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:Kusal Perera, 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.

My submission at Articles for creation: Kusal Perera (April 14)

Hello, I dream of horses. Thank you for the feedback. The person is one of Sri Lanka's most well known political analysts and journalists, writing primarily in Sinhala. So this feedback is interesting to me. I will see if there are ways I can find sources for this to be more suitable for wikipedia. Kpdoe (talk) 05:05, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of Sri Lankan journalists

Hello. Your recent edit to List of Sri Lankan journalists appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 09:07, 14 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

List of Sri Lankan journalists

Hello, Arjayay Kusal Perera is one of Sri Lanka's most well known journalists and political analysts, especially in Sinhala media. There is some circularity to the conditions on this page because one cannot add a name unless there is a page, and if an article is not approved because it does not fit the criteria is not 'notable', then there is some difficulty adding a name. Thank you for the feedback, however, and I will try to figure out the guidelines better. Kpdoe (talk) 05:05, 16 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
