Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (February 29)

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

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Skinneh1738/sandbox 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 User:Skinneh1738/sandbox, 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 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, 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.

Hey, feel free to drop me a message here if you'd like to talk!

Or, you can message me on Reddit at: https://www.reddit.com/user/skinneh1738

Howdy, I saw that you replaced the ranks of several Chernobyl firefighters with just "firefighter." This seems less informative than their actual formal rank. Also, it would be best to retain the citation of Higginbotham's book, rather than replaced sourced information with unsourced.Sredmash (talk) 14:14, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I thought it'd make it simpler to put "firefighter" as the role, the rank of the fireman can be seen in the information box next to it.

About the unsourced information - Higginbotham's account of events that night is highly dubious at times. All of the edits I made to the firefighters' information largely comes from eyewitness accounts, Leonid Telyatnikov being the main one, as well as diagrams formulated by surviving firefighters which directly contrast Higginbotham's book. I'll do my best to state my source however the majority of it doesn't come from a published book, rather memoirs from survivors given across interviews etc. Skinneh1738 (talk) 22:50, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
