Your submission at Articles for creation: Ryan Swain (April 13)[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 SwisterTwister was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), 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:

Simply an advertised business profile, not satisfying our simplest policies and sources are only announcements or notices.

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:Ryan Swain and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Hello,

I am a beginner to Wikipedia but it's crucial we get page up for Ryan, as he has just been featured on Britain's Got Talent. Would you be able to help kindly amend the page ready for publication.

Many thanks

Deborah Mcginity Ryan's Manager

Comments relating to your recent editing[edit]

Please answer the following questions.

Does the above message signed "Deborah Mcginity Ryan's Manager" mean that this account is not, in fact, owned by Ryan Swain despite the user name "Ryanswain24", or does it mean that the account has been used by two people?
What connection does the account DebMcgee have to this one? Is that account owned by Deborah Mcginity?

Also, please take note of the following facts.

The article Ryan Paul Swain reads as distinctly promotional, and the statement "it's crucial we get page up for Ryan" confirms that the aim is to use Wikipedia to promote or publicise him. Such promotional editing is not permitted by Wikipedia policy. Also, Wikipedia's guidelines on conflict of interest indicate that neither Ryan Swain nor his manager nor anyone else connected to him should create an article about him. Letting a draft be reviewed by an independent experienced editor is far preferable.
Having created Draft:Ryan Swain you should accept the judgement and advice of the experienced editors who review that draft, rather than ignore them and go ahead with creating the article anyway.
Please don't create duplicate articles under different titles, as has been done at Ryan Paul Swain and Ryan Swain. There are various reasons why doing so is unhelpful. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:05, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Thank you for getting back to me, Ryan uses this account yes and I go on to check it as I do with his social media.

How do I proced to the next part of getting Ryan on Wikipedia?

Many thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryanswain24 (talk • contribs) 14:40, 20 April 2017

You don't "proceed to the next part of getting Ryan on Wikipedia". Wikipedia is not a medium for people to publicise themselves or their clients, and Wikipedia's guidelines on conflict of interest indicate that you should not be creating an article about him. There are plenty of places where people can have self-promotional internet pages, but Wikipedia is not one of them.

What you say makes it clear that this is a shared account, used by two different people, but Wikipedia policy is that an account is only for one person. Also, editing from an account with a name which is the name of a real person other than yourself is not permitted, as it is likely to mislead other editors. For both those reasons I shall block this account from editing.

I would still be interested to know the answer to my second question above. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 08:14, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Ryan Swain (May 15)[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 Biochemistry&Love was:

The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

For a WP:BLP, you need to have inline citations. For example, the statement "Ryan became famous on the social networking site Facebook, where he has had a combined total of 10 million views on his comedy videos respectively" needs an inline citation. The article appears to be very self-promotional, with a clear conflict of interest (see page history). Please read WP:COI.

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.
