00:01:07, 5 May 2020 review of submission by Cdg1072
Dear editor,
Concerning this article, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:The_contradiction_of_Poetics_chapters_13_and_14
only one editor (out of several) was supportive of the article I submitted, and he suggested what changes he thought would make it sound more objective and free of any synthesizing or opinion that was my own. I incorporated his changes and resubmitted (it had already seen a few previous submissions). But since that one editor, the last two have both tersely stated that the article seems "non-neutral in tone." It has at this point received a "stop" notice, presumably indicating that more advice should be sought before resubmitting, or do not submit again at all.
My article does not, in fact, contain my opinions or original research, and it is neutral. It only contains the opinions of people who are experts on the topic, which is appropriate for Wikipedia. Wikipedia articles contain many opinions, but never strictly the opinions of the individuals writing articles. Every opinion mentioned in Wikipedia is mentioned as a fact, the fact that someone holds that particular view of the topic. In other words, many topics covered in Wikipedia lack a single consensus view of the issue, whatever the subject is. Some topics do enjoy a consensus, of course, and perhaps those are easier to report on. But some topics are still under debate, so that multiple views and positions have to be mentioned. This is not against the rules of Wikipedia, on the contrary, many of its articles exhibit this feature.
If the editors are right, then, there must be some expressions in the article or long-winded passages that make it look like it is a new opinion, of the person submitting the article. But that is a distorted view of the article. So to solve the problem, it is necessary to either decide (1) that the topic is too esoteric and obscure for Wikipedia, or not important enough to be found in an encyclopedia. Or (2) Wikipedia editors should try again to state what specific things in the article actually make it look like original research (which it is not). What are those things, so that they can be changed? I personally cannot see anything in the article that strongly gives this impression. It all looks objective and neutral to me.Cdg1072 (talk) 00:01, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

- Cdg1072, The article has been rejected which means it will not be considered further. Creating a new article is one of the most difficult tasks on wikipedia. I would recommend working on existing articles first to get a better idea of the tone and structure we look for in an article. Sulfurboy (talk) 00:21, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
I've never been interested in creating a wikipedia article, per se. I have 1000 edits on Wikipedia articles, a few of which are not minor. That experience, while not extensive, has nothing to do with the change of fortune paradox. I only created the article because it is a very notable topic that's 500 years old. I have no idea what you mean, by talking about this article being different from other Wikipeida articles on similar subjects. You suggest looking at other articles in Wikipedia? Well, I've been reading them for 20 years. I could look at other articles, like the one on Theories of Humor, or Theory of Descriptions, forever and not see a difference. It's exactly the same. The tone and structure is exactly the same, and if you could show otherwise, you would. But you can't, and I don't care -- thanks.Cdg1072 (talk) 00:53, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
02:59:07, 5 May 2020 review of draft by Whisperjanes
Is there a way to withdraw an AfC submission that I submitted? Although I think the subject is notable, I don't think it's obvious from the article at the moment and the article as a whole could use more work. I don't want to have a reviewer put in time reviewing it right now and I rather not have it rejected at the moment, since I think it would be good to work on it longer in draftspace.
Also, additional question: If I want to leave a comment on the draft for future reviewers, is there any specific way I should do it? Thank you!
Whisperjanes (talk) 02:59, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

05:25:30, 5 May 2020 review of submission by Qaasid
The reasons to why my contribution was rejected are vague to me. My request is, as I am new to this and as perhaps this may be my only contribution for a while, that someone either post this for me or explain specifically and explicitly what is still required. If someone can help, that would be awesome; I can provide authentic sources and references and help in any way possible, but I'm just not tech savvy enough to continue. And I find it extraordinary that it hasn't been covered already.
I look forward to hearing back from you!

I'm asking for re-review, this draft article was got deleted in the first and second attempt to publish it , for the reason of sock puppetry. How can we appeal when we already blocked and don't know where to ask assistance or advice what to do. I thought you don't bite newcomers? Why the article is always getting deleted by the same wiki admin? I hope someone can help me on this matter. Thank you and take care.

- Joxley Lee, I'm afraid that this subject is not notable. He might be notable someday, but it appears to be too soon for this particular person. Also, if you know this person/are this person you should probably not be writing the article, as that represents a conflict of interest. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 07:18, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

07:40:10, 5 May 2020 review of draft by Glittershield
Hi, I am looking for help in getting the promotional content on my page removed, this page was speedy deleted for promotional content and then was recovered as I am unsure as to what the promotional content is on my page kindly request editors to help me with the page to make it neutral. Any help or suggestions will be helpfulGlittershield (talk) 07:40, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
Glittershield (talk) 07:40, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Glittershield. One view would be that the sentences "In April 2020 this company partnered with Impactguru.com and raised funds to provide meals to the families affected by Covid 19 lockdown in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Noida and Chennai" and "The company has raised venture capital about $526 million from companies like [long list omitted]", and phrases such as "they started BB Daily to supply milk to the public", and "for the public to order fresh fruits and vegetables and other FMCG(fast-moving consumer goods)" are promotional.
- Another way of looking at it is that all of the content is promotional. The mere existence of an article can be promotional if the article shouldn't exist. Allowing an article about Bigbasket would imply that it belongs in an encyclopeia, the way the State Bank of India and BP do, when Bigbasket is nothing like those examples - it is not notable (not suitable for inclusion).
- The other articles you've created in your first few months here, Ridaex Technology and Colive are being discussed at Articles for Deletion. This suggests you haven't yet grasped just how difficult it is to create new articles, especially about companies that are still in business. Revisit the topic in 3-5 years. By then, the company may have gone public, and enough may have been written about it to make it notable. That will also give you time to gain experience editing existing articles, experience that you will find valuable when starting new ones. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:35, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

I have read the guidance for submission and completely understand the initial rejection points. I have since added far more notable aspects to David Selves'life, including as Deputy Chairman to The London Press Club, which is notably one of the oldest press clubs in the world and one of the very few still in existence. I have added references to everything possible and have made it encyclopaedic and straight facts. The article is certainly meant as a history of his life to-date. Are you able to either review the contact and hopefully publish or offer some advice so that I may amend accordingly.
Thank you for your help.

Request on 14:41:37, 5 May 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by LilyRCSRF
Hello,
I hope that you are keeping safe and well. I am writing to ask for help with the publication of a Wikipedia page about our charity - The Civil Service Retirement Fellowship (The CSRF), that is a registered UK charity that has been running since 1965. I have been given the feedback that the one I have submitted is 'basically a promotional press release' and that this is the reason it has been rejected. I know that other charities have Wikipedia pages too, so I was wondering if I could ask what can I do to ensure that our charity can have a Wikipedia page? I would very much appreciate your help with this as it would be wonderful to make this happen as we have been trying to get one published since January and Wikipedia is such a great platform. We do have a lot of history and information that I hoped we could share through the article I submitted. However, if including that history makes the page too promotional, I completely understand, and a basic description page about who we are and what we do would be great! Some of our vice presidents and board directors even have existing Wikipedia pages that we could link to?
Thank you so much in advance for any help that you can provide - I really appreciate it and the comments so far.
Stay safe and well. My kindest regards and very best wishes, Lily

The latest submission has been declined as it feels that I am writing this about David Selves, as himself. However, I am writing this about David Selves from a third person aspect. This is based on my knowledge of David Selves and is in no way intended as a sales publication, just as an encyclopaedic reference to his life. Are you able to give any further advice in order to progress this further? Thanks.

Wikipedia is not a place for people to write about themselves. Please see the autobiography policy.

It is true that a previous link to this book elsewhere on Wikipedia (as just cited in the rejection notice) was removed for being a personal promotional link and not being a bona-fide work of literature however, please know that those reviewers themselves, after actually taking the time to look at the bibliographic details, realized their mistake and reinstated the link. I believe they were so quick to judge primarily due to the "colorful" title of the work as well as the modernist cover photo, both of which defy expectations of what a novel from Iran should look like. It would be more "proper" if the cover had some religious fanatic women dressed in black robes with machine guns but this, whoa, a story about some badass blogger in Iran who talks just like you and me, how can it be?! In fact, this is the very reason I am "promoting" this non-commercial, non-mainstream, alternative work available as a FREE, PDF download. I am trying to overcome stereotypes. The author of the novel is up for the prestigious international Hans Christian Andersen Award (stalled due to Covid-9) yet the general public is unaware such a progressive writer exists precisely because his works are hard to access. Is not Wikipedia's raison d'être to include such works? I would not have been surprised if the article had been rejected due to technical faults (the big publishing houses have a whole staff of tech-savvy experts to promote their books on social media whereas I am just doing the best I can) but I was not expecting that previous rejection (since corrected and accepted) to come back and haunt me. MrConnieGenius (talk) 04:29, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

− NG AGM (talk) 07:19, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- @NG AGM: Every time you click "Publish changes" on Wikipedia you grant anyone and everyone the right to copy and modify what you've written. Many websites copy content from Wikipedia. Wikitia is evidently one. It is probably set up to copy all content automatically, but no one here knows or cares how or why Wikitia copied the page, because we have no connection to Wikitia. If you want more information about their operations, you should ask on their website. --Worldbruce (talk) 13:59, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Edit Request
Please remove the notice of speed deletion on Draft:Amit Bhadana (yutuber) made by me. this is not right. This is an Indian YouTuber article which is the most subscribed YouTuber in India. Do not look at this from the perspective of advertising. I am very sad. I gave the correct reference. There is no reason to delete an article that was previously deleted. Whoever has done this may be jealous of India. Only then does one delete that article repeatedly. I request you to keep that article on Wikipedia. Many Indian YouTuber articles are available on Wikipedia. While there are not many good references among them, they are still on Wikipedia. And I have seen many articles which are without reference.
Mary urges you to contribute that article - and keep it on Wikipedia. Because maybe I made a mistake. I request you. Please edit that article. And remove the notice of deletion on it.

- @Luke Seeber: I see a bunch of problems here:
- this draft has zero reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Therefore, it currently fails WP:N, in particular WP:NCORP. WP:42 and WP:V may have additional information about why we are requiring this.
- this draft currently tells from the company's point of view. Wikipedia articles should maintain a neutral point of view.
- If you are affilated in any way with the subject or expect compensation for your edits, you need to adhere to WP:COI and WP:PAID and make the appropiate disclosures. The latter is a Terms of Service requirement of Wikipedia. The Wikimedia Foundation has an FAQ on this at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Terms_of_use/FAQ_on_paid_contributions_without_disclosure. For the english wikipedia there is FAQ you might want to read at Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations. Pinging @Theroadislong: as the last reviewer if he want's to add something.

Thanks. Will try to find some reliable and independent sources.

Themajidi (talk) 13:21, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Themajidi for your topic first look at Wikipedia:Notability (music) mostly the criteria for WP:SINGER - it currently does not look like that match any of these. The subject could also pass via Wikipedia:Notability (people) or WP:GNG. Apart from specific music criteria such as charting etc, most come down to requiring significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources to show notability. The two article included as references are a good start but not quite enough for notability. See if you can find any-more coverage. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 16:09, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

This entry presents a theoretical/conceptual model that aids organizations in dealing with and managing complexity. It is a new conceptual model and has been supported in a various publications (refereed and non-refereed). There is no advertisement of any company or product in this entry. This entry is not commercial, especially when compared to a number of currently published wikipedia articles. I could list more that a dozen here as I did in my last entry. This is not a commercial article, it is an article introducing a new conceptual model that has been supported by both industry and academia.
Why not let the community decide? Isn't this what wikipedia is geared toward, letting the public edit and alter as they see fit? Also, if there is a way to edit the submitted article please provide details. I can edit but I have gotten nowhere being redirected to a list of indexes on questions as they have not provided any information related to the comments received in the rejection of the submitted article.

I scrupulously followed all editorial advice and provided numerous sources, including secondary independent sources. I see that another post with very few references that does not respect the advise I have been given as reason for rejecting my post has been approved within days of its creation. The post approved is The Europeans (podcast). The subject has less coverage and subsequently less external links and sources. Half of the references are to their own content, at odds with Wikipedia's policy that I have been communicated. I have been asked to review my posts for motives and requirements that were clearly not applied in the case of this new post for The Europeans (podcast). This was a lot of hard work and I take the Wikipedia policy seriously therefore I am very disenchanted to see double standards applied. Queenofboston (talk) 17:30, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Additionally, I have added more references to evidence WP:INN as requested and beyond what has been provided in approved articles I have used as reference.

Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue).

Having done that I am totally unsure of how to delete the Citation Needed maintenance flag. Rather than do something totally erroneous, could I ask an experienced editor who fully understands these things to please do it for me, as I don't really suffiiciently understand this aspect of Wikipedia.

Software companies have been able to list their apps with minimal citations in Wikipedia so users can view their history:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PDF_software
This is not a comprehensive list of all available applications, and articles on the listed software seem to provide minimal information and do not explain the history of the apps. Yet, my article was considered a press release? Should the article be stripped of its citations to press releases, citing version history? Otherwise, there appears to be some favoritism here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABBYY_FineReader https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF_Studio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF_Expert_(software) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF_Signer

The reason for rejection was that the current draft has zero reliable sources and as such doesn't demonstrate Notability of the subject. The bigger issiue sems to be that the draft was indeed copy & pasted from the homepage. Since I'm not quite sure if this would be a straightforward CSD nomination I only have tagged it with a box. Since you claim to be the homepage manager, you might have a look at donating copyrighted material to Wikipedia, howewer, because of the Notability issiue, this step will probbably be pointless.

- TalkativeIndividual130, Be careful about comparing your article to existing ones. Many of the articles on Wikipedia were created before we began the rigorous Article for Creation process. That means a lot of ...honestly junk articles were created, and many of them have slipped through the cracks. We are in the process of finding those and fixing them. Just because another article is bad does not mean yours can be bad. You can read more about the logical fallacies involved in article comparison at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS.
- The reason your article was rejected and then decline was that it was lacking reliable sources to verify its notability. Of the four sources, one is a dictionary definition of concrete, and another is a list of street names. Those are not sources that establish the notability of the subject. If you could provide three quality sources that discussed this housing development, we might be able to write about it. But otherwise, it is not notable nor suitable for inclusion.

- Emilyeeelie117, I believe you can just type <ref name="auto1">. Replace the 1 with the already numbered footnote. If that doesn't work, duplication is fine, it'll be fixed when someone runs reflinks (which fixes that issue). Also, for technical help with stuff like this the WP:TEAHOUSE is probably the best place to go. There you will find some incredibly helpful people who have a lot of experience in helping new users.

- Lamacha9617 (talk · contribs) (TB)
Hi, big wikipedia fan here. I decided to take a foray into article writing, but my first article was denied. User:Sulfurboy cited that it didn't meet the guidelines for N:PROF -- but I'm confused, because I believe the subject explicitly meets multiple criteria.
N:PROF states that either of the following constitute sufficient notability:
2. The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level.
3. The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers).
The subject of this article both (1) has been named a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science - which I believe satisfies N:PROF criterion 3, and (2) has received a medal from NASA sufficiently prestigious as to be authorized as military decoration, which I believe satisfies N:PROF criterion 2.
Am I missing something? Thank you! Lamacha9617 (talk) 01:49, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
Lamacha9617 (talk) 01:49, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Lamacha9617, Being awarded a medal from the subject's own employer wouldn't be considered particularly prestigious or notable. It's even less notable when you consider it's not even the highest honor NASA can bestow on one of their employees. For fellow status to be considered under prong 3 it needs to be highly selective. In 2015, the year the subject got fellowship, they awarded 346 other people fellowships that year. A society that awards hundreds of fellowships a year wouldn't be considered particularly selective. Sulfurboy (talk) 01:56, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Sulfurboy, Hmm we're clearly running up against highly subjective definitions of prestige and selectivity here. I understand the issue about an award coming from your own employer, thank you for clarifying. But to bring some numbers to the table, the society that is specifically mentioned in the N:PROF example for prong 3, IEEE, states that up to 0.1% of its members can be named "fellow" in one year. With over 420,000 members, that would mean up to 420 fellows per year - fewer than AAAS named in 2015. Indeed, in 2019 the IEEE elevated 282 members to the level of fellow. So I would argue that your reasoning about hundreds of fellowships precluding selectivity does not hold up, given that the N:PROF example for "highly selective" fellowships itself names hundreds of fellows annually. Lamacha9617 (talk) 02:16, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Lamacha9617, Okay, your persistence has paid off. I did some digging and found an old deletion discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pierre Baldi which found being a fellow AAAS as being enough to establish notability. As such, I will be approving the article. Cheers Sulfurboy (talk) 03:16, 9 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I created a page for Faizal Kottikollon a couple of weeks ago. I was provided feedback that the language used wasn't in line with Wiki language. I have made substantial changes to it and was wondering if this is more in line with the wiki standards? Could you please take a look and advise me please? Thank you!
Vathsalak (talk) 04:10, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Vathsalak, That page is just a full on advert for the subject. It is nothing like the dispassionate, formal and neutral tone required for an article. Nearly every paragraph has some form of puffery or promotional tone. It very well could be your conflict of interest in being a paid editor is making the WP:NPOV issues hard to see. Sulfurboy (talk) 04:38, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Sulfurboy, I can assure you that there is no payment that is being made for the edit. If it were, I would have definitely disclosed it. The issue is that this is the first time I am making a submission. I will revisit the draft and try to make changes. If there is anything that you could point out in the direction of how I could make this better, it would be extremely helpful.

I'm a bit confused as to why the article was rejected. When submitted, it said it would take months for it to be reviewed. Since it's a Superfund site, there are literally several million government records. In this case, there are also news articles, documentaries, much more than pretty much every Superfund site in the country. Since I thought I had months, I only added a few sources.
- @Rightventracleleft: Drafts are reviewed in no particular order by revierwers in their (sometimes rare) free time. As such, reviews can indeed take a few months.

Therefore, please make sure that your Draft is, apart from minor issiues, ready for mainspace when you submit it. Secondly, your submission was delined, not rejected.

Hello,
I do not understand how my sources are not enough for the article on CIMLS to be published. I believe people didn't look at my sources before making this decision. Some of them are only mentioning the topic in passing, but others are full secondary sources about the topic. In particular the legal issues source is entirely about CIMLS. My first source used is also a business profile page, not just a source mentioning it in passing.
Also, there are many similar companies that I modelled this page after who use similar sources to the ones I did, and all of them were approved. Some of their sources are even very outdated or non-existent anymore. Please help me understand.

13:18:19, 10 May 2020 review of submission by Georgeko
Dear Wikipedia,
The reasons given for rejection are extremely broad. In order to consider an appeal or a rewrite, it would be helpful to understand what specific criteria the reviewer relied on to conclude that the article must be rejected.
Thank you.
Georgeko (talk) 13:18, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
- Hi Georgeko. To know what was in the reviewer's mind, you really would need to ask the reviewer directly, but I'll try to explain what may have factored into their decision.
- Websites under sites.google.com are self-published, without editorial oversight. It is not clear who the author of the cited one is, what their credentials are, or whether they have any reputation for accuracy and fact checking. So it is not a reliable source and should not be cited by the draft. That leaves two sources: a page from a book, and a primary source research article in a journal. The general notability guideline advises that, "Sources should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability. There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected." The reviewer indicated that the topic is not sufficiently notable to justify a stand alone encyclopedia article. They may have reached that conclusion because the draft cites a single secondary source of unclear depth.
- Being unsuitable for a stand alone article doesn't mean the topic can't be covered within an article on a broader topic. It might be suitable, for example, to say something about the variety in Penny (Australian coin). How much emphasis to give it there would best be discussed on that article's talk page or at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Numismatics.
- Rejection is meant to be final, to indicate that reviewers do not intend to review the draft again, no matter how much you revise it. There isn't really an appeal mechanism, because Articles for Creation is an optional process. You are asking for the advice of experienced Wikipedians. If you don't trust that advice, then as long as you don't have a conflict of interest, you're free to create the article directly in mainspace. Of course if the reviewer was correct, it will more likely than not be deleted, but that's the risk you run. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:53, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello,
I am a relative newcomer to Wikipedia, and have only completed one full article. I recently submitted a new article for review, and received a message indicating that another article with the same title (created by a different user) is waiting for review. That article was submitted about two months ago and rejected. (Here is the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Dewey_Johnson_(musician).) Given that the existing article has not been revised or resubmitted since being rejected, and since the article I am proposing contains the information in the existing article (plus a great deal more), what can I do to move things forward? If the person who created the existing article does not revise and resubmit it, does my article remain in limbo indefinitely? (Here is the link to my article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Helen_Puffer_Thwait/Dewey_Johnson_(musician)) Is there any way to communicate with the creator of the existing article in order to ask if they plan to revise it?
Many thanks in advance for your help. I apologize for the "newbie" questions!

So my article was first declined because it didn't contain enough citations, now it's declined because you can't use social media as reference even though that is where I got most of my information. Guess I'll just use the interviews, because what other people say about the band is better info than what the official band biography on their website says, but I guess yea, not my rules, this will have to do now. Am I wrong for thinking this doesn't make any sense?
I can give you a list of similar pages to the one I want to create that literally have 3 references, of the same kind as mine. I feel like my article is just dismissed because the reviewer is too lazy to actually read and inspect my changes. I would not be so insistent with this if I didn't put so much work in it. I just want to create good content and I feel like I am not taken seriously.
Thank you!

- Other inappropriate articles existing does not mean that yours can exist too. See other stuff exists. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible for inappropriate articles to go undetected, even for years. We can only address what we know about. It seems that this band does not meet Wikipedia's special definition of a notable band. If it does, you need to demonstrate that by providing independent reliable sources to show it, and the article should only summarize what those sources say. Social media and interviews with the band are primary sources and not acceptable for establishing notability. 331dot (talk) 20:30, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

If you mean you're going to submit it back to the AfC process, it will probably get declined. The issue is that the subject does not appear to be notable, i.e. he's just an average dude, and thus we have no special reason to write about him. Also, the sourcing is insufficient. His own blog/website should not be used as a source, as it is not independent of the subject. Unless you can find multiple reliable and independent sources that discuss him in more than just passing mention, we cannot write about him. CaptainEek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 09:12, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

This is an encyclopedia, where articles about people must summarize what independent reliable sources like the news say with significant coverage say about people shown to meet Wikipedia's special definition of a notable person. Wikipedia is not interested in what someone wants to say about themselves. It appears that you do not meet that definition, and no amount of editing can confer notability on you. It depends on the sources. In addition, please review the autobiography policy as to why writing about yourself is strongly discouraged here.

I wonder if you would kindly look at the article for creation submission I wrote a few weeks ago. I have tried twice communicating with the editor that rejected the submission, and have gotten no response.
I believe a careful look at these three sources will demonstrate the notability of the subject:
https://www.michigandaily.com/section/soccer/michigan-alum-mission-popularize-soccer-states
https://www.sportsbusinessdaily.com/en/Journal/Issues/2019/03/25/Forty%20Under%2040/Sillman.aspx
The Michigan Daily source is exclusively about Sillman. Yes, it has some quotes from him, but those quotes do not make up the majority of the source. The Bizjournals source is also entirely about Sillman, with just a small number of quotes from him, especially compared to the length of the entire source. The source also contains quotes from other people that know Sillman, but not that many directly from him. The Sports Business Daily is a reliable source. Although it is short, it is entirely about Sillman, and only quotes him at the end with two short statements.
When these three sources are taken together, I believe there is a good case to be made that they constitute significant coverage from reliable sources. Please take another look. I hope you will agree with me that Daniel Sillman should have an article on Wikipedia. SylviaatRSG (talk) 10:12, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- SylviaatRSG, None of those sources are compelling. The first source is a student newspaper of a school that the subject is an alumni of. The second is bizjournals which has questionable reliability as many of their stories are sourced from press releases and in all likelihood it's paid for coverage. The third source I'm not familiar with, but a sports business publication has a very narrowly tailored audience and wouldn't do much in the way of demonstrating notability on a wider level.

- @Bouhlechat: You can resubmit drafts by clicking on the big blue button labeled submit. I see that you made substantial additions to the Draft.. I'm going to ping @Robert McClenon: as the last reviewer if he has something I missed, but from what I see now it looks acceptable. Victor Schmidt (talk) 16:31, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

- This does not explain notability. Unbroken Chain (talk) 14:01, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Joaquim Guttierrez: Websites dzone.com, medium.com, and quora.com contain user-generated content, so they are not reliable sources. The remaining three sources are not independent of Burningwave Core. There are no independent, reliable, secondary sources containing significant coverage of the topic, so it is not notable, and Wikipedia should not have a stand alone article about it. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:11, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Added additional recent source from Fitch Ratings in the history section. https://www.fitchratings.com/research/insurance/fitch-affirms-cno-financial-group-ratings-outlook-stable-on-coronavirus-review-21-04-2020

- Hope samantha Your draft has been rejected after several declines, meaning that there is little to no chance it can be improved to meet Wikipedia standards. Please see the comments left by reviewers on the draft. Adding a Fitch Rating is not the significant coverage in reliable sources needed. 331dot (talk) 15:04, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

I need guidance on content creation on Wikipedia.

- @Bernard Akaawase: That draft was deleted as is was untouched for six months. the "Draft"-Namespace is not for the infinite hosting of material found unsiutable for the encyclopedia. I are no administrator and can't see what was in there, aparently you didn't submit it for review. You can submit draft's for review by adding
{{subst:submit}}
to it while they are still existing. The good news I have for you that pages that are deleted from the Wiki are not technically deleted from the harddrive of the Servers Wiikipedia is running on, they are only marked as deleted in the underlying datebase, and as such, can be undeleted. If you want to have this draft undeleted, go to WP:REFUND/G13 or simply ask here. Victor Schmidt (talk) 16:27, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
