Your submission at Articles for creation: Vangelis Vlahos (June 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by S0091 were:

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.

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Most of the content is unsourced and sources provided are largely primary or not reliable. There is also several external links which need to be removed. If they are meant to be sources, then cite them but like noted above primary sources are not helpful for notability and should only be used very sparingly and the beginning of the biography, which isn't a biography, is list cruft and needs to be entirely removed or severely trimmed along with most the content.

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:Vangelis Vlahos 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.

Thank you for the comments. I think I did the necessary changes citing sources and removing external links. My sources are major international art magazines,major museum mages and international exhibitions pages. Are these considered reliable sources? If not what other sources do you propose for a contemporary Greek artist? Since Wikipedia does not list many contemporary Greek artists it would be helpful for me to know more and add more artists in the future. About the work section do you find the citations long? Would you prefer a shorter mention without putting quotes like "writer Stephanie Bailey" or "in an interview the artist has stated" etc? As for example in Wikipedia page for FYTA.

Thank you in advance. 46.190.72.218 (talk) 19:28, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Melissa Hatzopoulou. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. S0091 (talk) 21:16, 15 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message. My sources are major international contemporary art magazines, major museum pages and international exhibitions pages. Are these not considered reliable sources? If not what other sources do you propose as reliable sourses for a contemporary Greek artist and what should one avoid? Do you refer to the citations in the Work section? Would you prefer a shorter mention without putting quotes like "writer Stephanie Bailey" or "in an interview the artist has stated" etc? As for example in Wikipedia page for artist duo FYTA. Since Wikipedia does not list many contemporary Greek artists it would be helpful for me to know more and add more artists in the future. Thank you in advance.

Hi, and how are you doing?

I have reviewed your draft again and like before, meets WP:NARTIST. However, AFC is to help avoid badly and non notable chunks already on mainspace, hence I will help you and clean it up and search for better sources myself. I have started already and would want you to follow up from the page history, to see what I removed and why and how and lastly, the end. Cheers! Safari Scribe^{Edits!
