The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure. Note to reviewers: do not leave copyright violations sitting in the page history. Please follow the instructions here.

AfC notification: Draft:Thomas Ainslie (colonial official) has a new comment[edit]

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Thomas Ainslie (colonial official). Thanks! Robert McClenon (talk) 17:33, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I also fixed the incorrect link to Thomas Ainslie in Thomas Ainslie Young. The link incorrectly linked to Thomas Ainslie, Scottish rugby player. I inserted Thomas Ainslie (colonial official) as placeholder. cgyoung (talk) 18:03, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gilbert Ainslie Young (barrister) (May 29)[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 Bearcat was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and 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:

Please note that neither lawyers nor writers are inherently notable just because they existed. For example, you do not make a writer notable by referencing his book to itself as evidence that it exists, you make a writer notable by referencing his book to third party critical analysis about the book in media as evidence that its existence has been externally validated as significant. But the only sources here are his own book and some genealogical records, which is not the kind of referencing it takes to get a person into Wikipedia.

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:Gilbert Ainslie Young (barrister) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Gilbert Ainslie Young (barrister), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to 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.
