Your submission at Articles for creation: Sarah Abo (July 4)

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

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

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:Sarah Abo and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Sarah Abo, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to 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.

Deleting content

Generally, if content is reliably cited and doesn't violate some policy (like copyright or defamation of living people etc), it's generally best not to delete it. It may be that it needs to go into a different section or be given some context. In particular, information that is no longer current (e.g. the closure of the Gladstone Mater Private Hospital) may need to be rewritten in the past tense and/or moved into the history section (or a history section created to contain it). Obviously exactly what is done depends a bit on the structure of the article. I hope this helps. Kerry (talk) 07:35, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

CapriCon (Australia) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, CapriCon (Australia), is not suitable as written to remain published. It appears there is a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. 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, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. As per WP policy, please do not move into mainspace yourself. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 10:36, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Nate Byrne (October 12)

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

What is he has written or said is not independent so cannot be used to establish notability and need coverage outside of the local area. Please also see the the notability guidelines for journalist.

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:Nate Byrne 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.

DYK for Brihony Dawson

On 22 January 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Brihony Dawson, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that when Australian Brihony Dawson debuted as the first non-binary host of reality TV franchise The Challenge, they decided not to imitate the "ominous" style of the U.S. host? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Brihony Dawson. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Brihony Dawson), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Did you know

Hi, I was thinking about nominating Vanessa Hudson for a DYK hook. If you don't know what they are, take a look at the main page. Every day interesting facts appear on the main page with "Did you know" a small fact about an article subject. I was thinking of nominating Hudson for "Did you know Vanessa Hudson is the first female CEO of Qantas Airways in its 103 year history?"

If I nominate, I feel you deserve credit too given you wrote the article. Good work on that btw. If you wish to co-nominate, ill go ahead and process the hook nomination and list you as co-nom. Cheers MaxnaCarta (talk) 23:31, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
