Your submission at Articles for creation: James Kennedy (Musician) (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 Mattdaviesfsic 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:

Needs more sources to establish notability.

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:James Kennedy (Musician) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Draft : James Kennedy (Musician)

Hi Matt, thanks for reviewing my submission and your feedback (and Happy New Year!). There are lots of other sources from the mainstream media that fit the criteria you outlined but I didn't use them because the nature of the articles etc wasn't relevant to the 'biographical' info for James and I was trying to keep the page strictly biographical and not in any way promotional sounding. There are features in US Weekly and the Daily Star that fit the notability criteria for example but not for reasons that contain any biographical information that is useful in creating an impartial entry. Some of the info I used (birth date etc) was taken from his autobiography which is in book form and so I wasn't sure how to cite that as a source. There is a ton more information I could add but in trying to stay within the criteria, I have tried to keep it strictly relevant to direct biographical essentials but I'm sure that once the page is up, other contributors will add further details. What should I do? Thanks again Matt, I hope you are well. Planck321 (talk) 13:59, 9 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
