Hi KylieTastic, why is an article from the New York Times focusing solely on Kadia Saraf and Terry Serpico not significant coverage? The whole article is about her and him. The New York Times newspaper is a solid source of independent news. Thoughts? Thanks so much for your help. YN Theyoganinja (talk) 15:27, 29 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The comment the reviewer left was:

There's now one reliable source. It's a start. But by itself, it doesn't show notability. If she's notable, presumably this is for acting rather than for getting married. So where's the substantive discussion, of course from reliable sources, on her acting?

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 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:

Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO) but presently does not. 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. The draft simply doesn't have sufficient reliable sources. It may be WP:TOOSOON. To properly create such a draft page, please see referencing for beginners. Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements then resubmit the page and ping me 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.

Cabrils (talk) 01:25, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cabrils. Thank you for reviewing my page. I don't understand... there are people with WP pages that are significantly less notable than Kadia Saraf. She was in the NYT, in two Dick Wolf shows, with a high imdb star meter (which means millions look her up on imdb). She was in publications here (NYT) and in the UK and France. It seems like notability is a fine line. Can you please advise? thanks so much! Theyoganinja (talk) 09:18, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, TYN! You can read more about how Wikipedia assesses notability at WP:NOTABILITY and WP:NACTOR. Wikipedia doesn't care how many shows a person was in or about crowdsourced sites like IMDb. What we want to see are multiple instances of significant coverage of the subject in independent reliable sources. If you come across articles about subjects who don't seem notable, you can tag them for lack of notability and another editor will come along and check. Or you can nominate those articles for deletion.

Right now the article has a single source that would help support notability, the NYT article. Of the other two sources provided, one is about her husband and the other is a very short piece that appears to be lifted from the NYT piece, so can't be used to support notability.
