Recent edits to Singapore American School[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Singapore American School, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

JustBerry, Can you please explain why you replaced my revisions with the previous information? You left me a message that I hadn't cite a reliable source. In fact, I added over 20 citations, from websites, books, and school publications. I also removed links that no longer work, or only work if you are a subscriber to that source (such as the "Good Schools Guide"). Before writing, I looked at other cites for similar organizations (large, nonprofit independent schools) and they all cite similar sources, such as the school's website, annual reports, and admissions information. If you let me know which citations were not acceptable, I will try to change them, but I don't think replacing the entire revision with old information (that several users, above, agree is out-of-date and incorrect) is the way to go here.SingCDS (talk) 07:55, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

February 2016[edit]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Athletic Conference of Singapore International Schools, from its old location at User:SingCDS/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. /wiae /tlk 14:08, 17 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Athletic Conference of Singapore International Schools (March 8)[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 Mz7 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 organizations and companies 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 they left was:

The sources you've provided are affiliated with this conference. To show notability, we need to see evidence of coverage in third-party sources, which are sources that are entirely independent of the subject. Look for news articles or books that might discuss this conference and add them as references.

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:Athletic Conference of Singapore International Schools and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Adding non-notable names to articles[edit]

Hello. Your recent edit appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.
