Your submission at Articles for creation: Harmon Cooper (January 3)[edit]

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), 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:

Needs more independent, secondary sources

It needs to get to the bar of referencing significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject to demonstrate notability - and if it can't do that, it won't get an article. #2 is a self-submitted request blog. #3, #5 and #7 are by the author - and self-published, to boot. #4 allows anyone to submit reviews. #6 and #10 are just from the same random dude's blog. #7 is someone's blog that also takes review requests. #9 is some random YouTube review. #11 also seems to be a case of "anyone can write for this site". I'm sorry to be blunt about it - but none of these sources comfortably meet Wikipedia's definition of a reliable source. The Drover's Wife (talk) 21:13, 4 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
