Draft:Kristiana Chan
| Submission declined on 27 July 2022 by Missvain (talk). 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.

Comment: Hi. I’m sorry, but the sourcing here isn’t helping the subject meet our General Notability Guidelines nor WP:NARTIST. It appears her work is not held in any major collections and the sourcing doesn’t show she’s received in-depth coverage about her work. The only source that does is the Examiner article. The other sources are passing mentions, primary sources, non-notable media outlets (“Withitgirl”) or a press release type article in TPG. We need *significant* in-depth objective coverage (that is independent of the subject - meaning no promotional pieces, government websites, university/company websites, event websites, social media, press releases, paid coverage) in notable major media outlets or by notable publishers about Kristiana Chan. Examples include: magazine and newspaper reviews and features about Kristiana Chan specifically; books or peer-reviewed white papers written ABOUT Kristiana Chan and radio features ABOUT Kristiana Chan. Frankly, if the subject isn’t passing WP:NARTIST they may not be eligible for an encyclopedic article. Also see WP:RS for additional guidance on what reliable secondary sources are.If those are available, please improve this submission. If not, then it might not be the right time (WP:TOOSOON) for Kristiana Chan to have a Wikipedia article. I hope you will consider improving existing Wikipedia content about other subjects of interest! If you have any questions please ask them at WP:TEAHOUSE. Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia!
