Your submission at Articles for creation: Internet Vikings (May 5)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by 331dot 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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Internet Vikings 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:Internet Vikings, 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 tagged for G13 deletion.
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.

Hello Sofia.pavlivna. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Sofia.pavlivna. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Sofia.pavlivna|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. 331dot (talk) 09:47, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The disclosure has been added. What are my next steps? Sofia.pavlivna (talk) 10:00, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The sources used in the draft are exclusively brief mentions or announcements of routine business activities; these do not establish that this company meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. An article about a company must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a company, showing how it meets that definition of notability. Wikipedia is not interested in the mere reporting of the activities of the company or in merely documenting its existence, but in summarizing significant, in depth coverage that goes beyond that from sources that have chosen on their own to write about it(not based on any materials put out by the company such as press releases or announcements). Please read Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 10:04, 5 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello :)

I`ve been looking for the relevant links to prove the company is notable on the internet, and here are the links I found. There are many more, just want to be sure that I`m looking for the right ones.

- http://us.acrofan.com/detail.php?number=651891

- https://www.gamblinginsider.com/connections/1363/internet-vikings

- https://www.igamingsuppliers.com/vendor/internet-vikings-ab/

- http://momathandscience.com/news-and-events-on-science-and-events/services-offered-by-internet-vikings/

- https://sbcamericas.com/2022/03/07/internet-vikings-kicks-off-igaming-hosting-operations-in-indiana/

Could you please help me with defining which ones are reliable sources?

There is also one thing I didn't mention before; since the company is operating in Ukraine, there is an article about it on Ukrainian Wikipedia. Does it make the company notable if the other Wikipedia branch decided it is? Here is a link - https://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Vikings

Thank you for your assistance :) Sofia.pavlivna (talk) 11:46, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
