Hello, I saw your message to Fastily. It was moved to drafts by per WP:DRAFTIFY by @Asilvering:, probably as undersourced. Hope that helps. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 09:17, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, I wrote a comment on the Talk page of the article. Sorry for not sending you a ping, @RoyalAce, I just assumed you'd see that. -- asilvering (talk) 18:40, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- Ah, thanks for letting me know. There's already quite a dirth of source material on the subject, but I'll have to try finding more. Thanks for getting back to me. RoyalAce (talk) 19:17, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- Oh dear. A dearth of material isn't a good sign, since the general premise of WP:N is that we write articles on topics that have plenty of secondary sources about them. I figured this was likely to have some sources, since you'd managed to write so much about it in the draft. How do you know about the modifications, for example? Not from a secondary source you could footnote? You'll probably also get at least one source out of
her wreck has become popular with technical SCUBA divers
- an article in a diving magazine? -- asilvering (talk) 22:52, 1 December 2023 (UTC)- I should clarify a dearth of easily accessible sources. I cited the main source I used for the information on her modifications from a book written by Peter Collings, one of the initial re-discoverers of the wreck. When I visited the area on a dive trip, I also received recommendations on source material from dive guides and others who had dove on the Rosalie Moller previously. I would not have created the article without believing it would not meet the general notability guidelines. There's definitely secondary sources to be found.

- Glad to hear it. If you can put that book by Collings in a footnote on that section, it will be a big help. -- asilvering (talk) 23:46, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
