Your submission at Articles for creation: Melissa Turner Drumm (November 30)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by JC7V7DC5768 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). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please provide at least somewhere around 4 sources or more from reliable media (newspapers, books, magazines) that mention Melissa more than in passing (and isn't a press release and is independent of her) If you need help, see WP:IRS.

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 Draft:Melissa Turner Drumm 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:Melissa Turner Drumm, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Rand Fishkin

Hello, Spaught,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username MrClog and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I have tagged an article that you started, Rand Fishkin for deletion, because it seems to be an article that has been already decided by a consensus decision to be unsuitable for inclusion.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|MrClog}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Deletion discussion about Wil Reynolds

Hello, Spaught

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Scope creep and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Wil Reynolds, should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wil Reynolds.

You might like to note that such discussions usually run for seven days and are not ballot-polls. And, our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Scope creep}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!
