{{help me}} Hi Gaijin42 thanks for your message. Why can the article Culturescapes not be retained? I did look at the Your first article page and I tried my best to make a good start to the article. Please be aware it is not finished yet, but I ran out of time. I spent quite long on it and would really appreciate it if it was not deleted. Can you tell me what's wrong with the article so I can fix it?
Thanks --Morgemonster (talk) 17:57, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
- The main issue is WP:NOTABILITY. You have in included 3 references in your article. All of these are WP:PRIMARY WP:SELFPUBLISHED sources. We need 3rd party WP:RELIABLESOURCES to ensure both WP:NOTABILITY and WP:VERIFIABILITY. If you are aware of good sources (preferably independent books, magazines, in depth newspaper articles etc) you can add them to the article, which may result in the article being kept. If the article is deleted, you may ask the deleting admin to userfy the article for you, so you can continue to improve it in your userspace. After that I would suggest Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation as a good place to get feedback on the article to see if it is up to standards before it gets moved back into article space. Let me know if you have further questions. Gaijin42 (talk) 18:04, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
Hi Gaijin42 Right, I see. I do have third party sources (newspapers etc.), but did not have time to add them yet. I can add them tomorrow. Thanks for your answers and advice! --Morgemonster (talk) 18:18, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Gaijin42
- I've edited the article and included more third party sources. Is it ok now? If yes, how can I get the deletion tag to be removed?

The article no longer qualifies for WP:SPEEDY deletion, but is still generally borderline. The basellandschaftliche Zeitung and time out Israel references are good, but that is pretty much it for refs that qualify. The badische-zeitung ref is really about the play, not Culturescapes so doesn't show much WP:NOTABILITY. The vast majority of the sources used are WP:PRIMARY documents that are WP:SELFPUBLISHED by the group itself (Also, since so many of the sources are that way, it raises the possibility of a WP:COI issue, re you associated/employed by the group?). Others are press releases, or from sites affiliated or cooperating with the group and therefore failing the independence test. The BDS item is a also WP:PRIMARY (Although kudos to the program for standing up against BDS)
For now the page won't be deleted, but in its current state it is likely to be deleted in the future. Wikipedia is not a marketing brochure. If the information is not WP:VERIFIABLE from WP:SECONDARY sources, it should be removed. The article should be repeating the content made in WP:SECONDARY WP:RELIABLESOURCES if there are only two, its likely to be nominated for deletion again in the future.

- Hi Gaijin42
- I thought for my first article, it would be easier to work from an existing wikipedia article in a different language (German), to get used to all the formatting etc. I know there are a lot of self-published primary sources, but some I included to expand on the individual festival programs. (Festival edition listings). Of course the Badische Zeitung ref is about the play being performed as part of the festival. That reference is specifically about the Frljic play, which is why the foot note is placed just after the name of the artist. There is also a ref by the swiss government (DEZA, SPD in English) and the Chinese Embassy, but I will try to improve the article by finding more secondary sources... Many thanks for your help.

Jurriaan Cooiman moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Jurriaan Cooiman, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your draft article, Draft:Jurriaan Cooiman
[edit]Hello, Morgemonster. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Jurriaan Cooiman".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 03:30, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
