Skandra moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Skandra, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I'd like you to approve/publish this article. The article's sources are fine and it is better-sourced than many typical articles on entertainment-related topics/figures. Articles on contemporary figures in entertainment rely on web postings, blogs, and personal webpages of artists. This is common for quotations as well as for biographical data on the figure. Please reconsider and approve my entry. Thanks. MattBad (talk) 13:57, 8 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

AfC notification: Draft:Skandra has a new comment[edit]

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Skandra. Thanks! Waddles 🗩 🖉 19:48, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your comment on my draft article (Draft:Skandra). I included as many non-interview sources as I could find. There are several interviews in there, but the range of material is rich enough. The artist is real and the references I found reflect the best of what's available. Could you approve the article and move it to the article space? This is the first article I've written here, so I'd like to see it get approved. Thanks! (Sorry I posted this earlier on your talk page; I guess I should have posted it here.)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Skandra (March 10)[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 Liance 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 music-related topics). 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:

Interviews are typically considered to be primary / non-independent.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Skandra 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:Skandra, 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 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.
