Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (July 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dan arndt was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), 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:

Lacks significant coverage in multiple independent verifiable secondary sources

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.

New York Times Non-Fiction Best Sellers of 1999

My apologies for not getting back sooner - sometime real life has a habit of getting in the way.

There are certain basic standards for articles on Wikipedia - including that the subject should have significant coverage in multiple independent verifiable secondary sources. Having an article about a list on the New York Times, with the sole reference being from the New York Times (which is a primary source) doesn't satisfy that basic criteria. Just because there are other similar articles, which lack independent references, is not a sufficient reason to substantiate your article (refer Other stuff exists). That is not to say that your draft article isn't notable it just needs supporting sources/references.

If you need any help/clarification let me know. Dan arndt (talk) 07:00, 24 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
