Hi, EnPassant, I see you tagged my article for deletion because the club is "non-notable". I disagree with this idea because this club is very engaged with both Stumptown AC and CLT FC. as of now, the club is Stumptown AC's only supporters group and has been named as such by the team's official IG account. Furthermore, the group is already in talks with CLT FC to discuss plans of further collaboration. Keeping the article is therefore encyclopedic and within Wikis guidelines. Please let me know if you'd like more sources and I would be happy to provide them to you. Thank you for the work you do! Simpsun728 (talk) 16:58, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Simpsun728 (I assume), I recommend you log back into your account as to make it plain to see where each comment is coming from and not publicly reveal your IP address. As far as the deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/QC Royals goes, it will be closed after a minimum of seven days, during which you have time to continue to improve the article, though I should caution you that I personally don't think it likely that this group will meet the notability criteria put forth at WP:ORGCRIT. AngryHarpy‍talk 17:05, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi AngryHarpy- thank you for letting me know about my ISP. I have removed it. I appreciate the criticism as well. I disagree about yours and EnPassant's assessments about the group's notability because other supporters' groups who have had even less notability than this one have remained on wikipedia, most notably the Dallas Beer Guardians of Dallas FC,[1], who do not hide the fact that they are a social club. I do not believe that this group is any different. Please let me know what sources the community would like for me to provide to legitimate my claims. Thank you! Simpsun728 (talk) 17:20, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
You can find guidelines for the type of sources we're looking for at the link above (WP:ORGCRIT), but I'll gladly quote them here:

Individual sources must be evaluated separately and independently of each other and meet the four criteria below to determine if a source qualifies towards establishing notability.

  1. Contain significant coverage addressing the subject of the article directly and in depth.
  2. Be completely independent of the article subject.
  3. Meet the standard for being a reliable source.
  4. Be a secondary source, primary and tertiary sources do not count towards establishing notability.

Question Regarding Appalachian FC

[edit]

Hi, Simpsun728. I see you put in work on the Appalachian FC new page. I am trying to get one made for Georgia Storm FC, who is in the same conference, but keep getting denied. Were you the publisher of Appalachian's article? I was hoping you could give some advice as they say Georgia Storm doesn't meet notability standards even though they qualified for the US Open Cup. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Georgia_Storm

Hi, Kevinw33. That's strange that it keeps getting taken down. Seems to me that Georgia Storm FC is just as legitimate as AFC is. In your responses to the editors, have you let them know that the team has a website, social media, etc? This seems like a no-brainer to me, so I am just as confused as you are. Let me know how I can help. Simpsun728 (talk) 17:41, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Simpsun728, I heard back that Appalachian FC and North Alabama SC were created using WP:Article Wizard rather than from scratch like I did. They apparently go through a different approval process. I resubmitted using the wizard... we'll see. Kevinw33 (talk) 18:49, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Simpsun728, rejected again... 90% of the NPSL teams have pages but I think I keep getting non-sports fans reviewing my page! Kevinw33 (talk) 14:39, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Mint Hill F.C. moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Mint Hill F.C., is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) (we don't consider Twitter a reliable source) 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, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. JW 1961 Talk 19:18, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for this! I will keep the draft here until I can compile more sources. Simpsun728 (talk) 19:29, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thats great, welcome to Wikipedia and I hope you have a great time contributing here JW 1961 Talk 20:16, 14 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Mint Hill F.C. (April 26)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KylieTastic 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 organizations and companies). 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.
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 when they have been resolved.

Hi KyleTastic. These are all the sources that exist on the club right now. It is still very young. What else would you like me to include? Thanks. Simpsun728 (talk) 17:36, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
