Rejected article

Hello,

Could you please tell me why my article on Uruguayan writer and poet, Hector Rosales, was rejected?

[ [ Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hector Rosales ] ]

I think the problem is the extent to which it's lacking independent secondary sources to prove the notability of the subject. See WP:42. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 12:30, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How do I submit the page for review? Musedoc (talk) 14:14, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Put, {{subst:submit}} at the top of it.

However, there's no point in doing that until you include appropriate references - see WP:42. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 14:26, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This page is specifically for questions about the Articles for Creation process. You can either read Pythagorean theorem or go to the reference desk to ask your question. --(ʞɿɐʇ) ɐuɐʞsǝp 14:35, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have read your submission, your other edits, and comments left by others on your talk page regarding those edits. Given the number of times your edits have been reverted, I would recommend that you spend some time familiarizing yourself with what Wikipedia is and what it is not before submitting a full-fledged article. In particular, you should become familiar with Wikipedia's content guidelines and policies, especially Wikipedia:Notability, Wikipedia:No original research, Wikipedia:Verifiability, and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. As mentioned in a comment on your submission, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Needle Writing, we need significant coverage in "more serious media." Articles which are created but which do not appear to be on a notable topic tend to wind up being discussed and deleted anyways. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 19:31, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
