Your submission at Articles for creation: Cupcakke (January 19)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister 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 music-related topics 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:

Deleted before for concerns and what's here is simply not significant to satisfy our standards and suggest this is better acceptable now.

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:Cupcakke and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

User-generated content

Hi there, re: this edit, Genius.com is a user-generated website, which means that users contribute to the content found there. We should only be using reliable published sources that have established reputations for fact-checking and accuracy. Other examples of insufficient user-generated sources: discussion forums, unverified Twitter accounts, IMDb, even Wikipedia itself. It's also pretty clear from the phrasing at the source that they are mirroring content found at Wikipedia, which would make it a circular reference. Anyhow, the birthdate has been removed until someone can find an unimpeachable reference. Thank you and regards, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 01:57, 2 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
