Your submission at Articles for creation: Stephen Williams (August 12)

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft has no references.

See WP:Markup for how to mark up headings.

This draft will require disambiguation from the other people named Stephen Williams.

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:Stephen Williams and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Hello Editors,

I was wondering when my latest revisions to my draft (Stephen Williams)will be reviewed? Will I be notified? Am I looking in the right place? Is my work in vain? I resubmitted the article back on August 22nd, and I did the best I could to cite references. Please advise at your convenience. Thanks,
