Your submission at Articles for creation: Stratford Caldecott (April 8)

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:

Currently not easily gaugeable for notability, so it would help to focus with adding all additional significant sourcing and also use WP:Referencing for beginners#Manual referencing.

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:Stratford Caldecott 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.

Caldecott

I should be pleased to assist to the extent that I may. In the interim, I have added a notice to the WikiProject Middle-earth Talk page, in the event that others there may be familiar with his work. Mannanan51 (talk) 18:35, 23 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think there are enough citations now to establish notability. (Many of them were there already, but in an inline format, which I'm given to understand is generally discouraged.) Of the nine articles listed as mentioning Caldecott, the ones that have a significant bearing could be listed under the See Also section, but you probably would not want to overdo this. (An example would perhaps be the Hail Queen of Heaven, the Ocean Star article which quotes Caldecott, and ties to his essay "The Lord & Lady of the Rings".) Once the article is accepted, then it would be a good idea to go to the listed mentions and wikilink to the article, so its not tagged as an "orphan". I would suggest re-captioning the Bibliography as Works, as a bibliography is often a list of writings "about" a person rather than "by" them. (-compare the page on Chesterton.)

I re-arranged a good deal of what you posted, but believe I kept almost all of it. I think his studies in Tolkien are important because (1) it demonstrates his interest in the nexus between faith and culture, and (2) it broadens interest beyond the circle of Catholic intellectuals. (It is in fact where I first came upon him.) Thank you for the article. Mannanan51 (talk) 19:12, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
