AfC notification: Draft:Lee Kuan Yew Global Business Plan Competition has a new comment[edit]

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Lee Kuan Yew Global Business Plan Competition. Thanks! Usedtobecool ☎️ 08:22, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for your feedback! I was referring to the Slush event article on wiki as a reference, which described the event, key participants, and event highlights and figures. To improve, do you think I should remove the 2023 edition mentions to keep it more generic? Junieparker (talk) 08:53, 23 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lee Kuan Yew Global Business Plan Competition (February 2)[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 Cabrils was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:EVENTCRIT) but presently it is not clear that it does.

As other reviewers have noted, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’. Please note that many of the references are not from sources that are considered reliable and should be removed (including blogs, company websites, Twitter, YouTube). Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like a promotional website, rather than an encyclopedic entry: WP:PROMO. The draft does not appear to show that the competition has any notability beyond the average coverage in trade publications for similar competitions (see WP:ROTM). Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page. It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject. It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:EVENTCRIT criteria #3, because XXXXX").

You may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page and I would be happy to reassess.

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Lee Kuan Yew Global Business Plan Competition and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Possible sources[edit]

Can use this as a source [1], will help with sources if I come with any other more. ~~Reliable sources will require mostly non primary sources like SMU or various universities.~~ Reliable sources will require mostly non primary sources, sources from SMU or various universities are considered primary sources which are not suitable for most cases. They are only suitable for referring to basic facts but not suitable for establishing notability. News articles are most preferred like the one I linked above. Articles which are 90% about a team and just mentioned they participated in the competition are considered passing mentions as the article is about the team, not the competition. Hope this is clearer for you. ~ JASWE (talk) 04:12, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Will bear your feedback in mind 122.11.214.18 (talk) 04:16, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NewspaperSG has most of the old articles [2] which you can use. For articles that you can view directly, just click on article and use it as a reference. For those not able to view and in microfilm only, either walk over to National Library building and view from there or via NewsLink. If SMU does not have an account for you to access NewsLink, you can get a NLB membership (which is free), go to [3], login with the NLB membership, and click More under the Database section, finds Newslink (should be on second page, listed as number 30) and click through. ~ JASWE (talk) 04:33, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I have strike through an erroneous sentence I wrote earlier and updated with 2 new sentences. Feel free to ask me any questions at my talkpage or here (please ping me by typing @User:Justanothersgwikieditor.) ~ JASWE (talk) 04:46, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Got it thank you!! @Justanothersgwikieditor 122.11.214.18 (talk) 05:56, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
