Your submission at Articles for creation: PLY (post-nominal letters) (August 2)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at International Paralympic Committee. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Current sourcing is all Primary. Need independent secondary sourcing. Would be better to insert in IPC article as WP:DUE is lower bar and this can be a re-direct title. If the section expands enough, it can become a standalone

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.

See you there! Slywriter (talk) 17:04, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Slywriter.

I am a little puzzled by this decision. This draft article is a mirror of the OLY article about the post nominal letters used by Olympians. The draft article relates to PLY post nominal letters used by Paralympians,

The quality of sourcing is the same in both articles, as is the level of content. Yet one qualifies for a Wikipedia article and the other doesn't.

The policies ought to be applied consistently. TurvyTopsy (talk) 00:15, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
