Your submission at Articles for creation: Clay Millican (January 7)

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

the sources are not sufficiently complete to be able to verify the content that they support.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Clay Millican (January 12)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by CNMall41 was: This submission is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Continuing to resubmit a draft without making improvements noted in the four previous declines could be considered WP:DISRUPTive. You will need inline sources to support everything the body and it will need to be written in more of a neutral, encyclopedic tone instead of like a book about the subject.

CNMall41 (talk) 03:09, 12 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I fear you are wasting your time continuing to edit this draft, once a submission has been rejected as contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia, it will not be considered further. The draft still reads nothing like an encyclopaedia article, I suggest you get some practice editing in other areas to get a better feel for what is acceptable.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 16:02, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I was told it was not suitable as the person in the article had done nothing noteworthy. I certainly disagree of course and feel he’s a Champion racer. Please tell me what changes I should make so it can be published. Pastormikeu (talk) 16:19, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, Draft:Clay Millican

Hello, Pastormikeu. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Clay Millican".

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. 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!} 16:28, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Liz. I was told the article was suitable for posting as Clay Millican had done nothing noteworthy in their eyes. I disagreed of course to no avail, but Clay is a six time World Champion in his sport. I will resubmit a draft at some point. Thank you again.
