Your submission at Articles for creation: Marcus Conrad (October 30)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by 331dot was:

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:

Did you personally take the photo of him as claimed?

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:Marcus Conrad 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.

Hi,

I am not quite sure, I understood what happened. Was the article declined? Marcus Conrad is next to Brent Stockwell (Researcher at Columbia) one of the discoverers of ferroptosis, a widely observed cell death modality. What should I do to improve? Oysterperpetual36 (talk) 09:20, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You only have one source. Every substantive fact about a living person must be sourced(see WP:BLP). Articles must primarily summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a person, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person.

Did you personally take the image of him, as claimed? 331dot (talk) 09:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ok will adapt. And yes photo is not protected by copyright 2A01:598:B9B0:317:58D8:A279:E03C:2B33 (talk) 09:23, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Remember to log in when posting. That's not what I asked- I asked you if you personally took the image as you claimed. 331dot (talk) 09:27, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Oysterperpetual36! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! 331dot (talk) 09:16, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Oysterperpetual36. 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 organizations 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);
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. 331dot (talk) 09:16, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have provided additional references as suggested. I think this benefits the tractability of the article.
