Draftification of "Pink Theater"[edit]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. A page you recently created, Pink Theater, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines for new pages, so it has been moved to Draft:Pink Theater where you can continue to work on it. Please consider using the Article Wizard or the Articles for Creation procedure. For more information about creating articles, you may want to read "Your first article". You may also want to read our introduction page to learn more about contributing. Thank you. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:06, 29 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Pink / Ridge Theater (January 31)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by TechnoSquirrel69 were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Pink / Ridge Theater and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Cleverdisguise! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 02:53, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for that friendly message, TechnoSquirrel! I've found the Wikipedia process to be really complex -- But as a user, I'll always be grateful to Wikipedia for being such an awesome resource. Thanks for all your efforts. I have permission from a photographer whose photo in Vanity Fair I plan to include with the article -- he's figuring out how to do the Creative Commons release. And there's another photo I'm trying to find ownership of. I have a Village Voice review, if I can figure out how to attach that, too, or at least the accompanying photo. As far as references go, I think I'm still unclear on "references" as opposed to links to other Wikipedia articles. Any thoughts you may have would be very welcome. Thanks!
