Hi, thank you for your message. I say ABSOLUTELY yes, dive in, be bold and edit! If you see something that needs doing, do it. Some of the administrators can lack a bit of tact so don’t be discouraged, it goes with the territory :) Hildreth gazzard (talk) 13:41, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Man, I just tried creating my first article and the admins are BRUTAL! Their feedback isn't super constructive a lot of the time. They said I didn't have "enough reliable sources" so the publication was denied. Okay...does that mean I don't have enough sources or that I don't have enough RELIABLE sources? What makes a source reliable? I don't know a more authoritative source than the words coming directly out of the person's mouth! BoredNoodleWrecker (talk) 19:55, 4 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gaston Dorren (August 7)[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 DoubleGrazing 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:

General WP:GNG notability requires significant coverage in multiple independent reliable secondary sources. Of the ones cited, only the LARB one comes even close to meeting these criteria (and it is more a book review than an article on the author, per se). Specific WP:AUTHOR notability seems unlikely, but if this is what's being asserted, then please specify which of the four criteria is met, and provide evidence to support this.

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.
