Concern regarding Draft:Symposium of Australian Gastronomy[edit]

Hello, Cookbookcollector. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Symposium of Australian Gastronomy, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

Your draft article, Draft:Symposium of Australian Gastronomy[edit]

Hello, Cookbookcollector. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Symposium of Australian Gastronomy".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:19, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Symposium of Australian Gastronomy (June 12)[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 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 passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This could well be notable, but close primary sources do not establish that. Per WP:GNG, we need to see significant coverage, directly of the subject, in multiple secondary sources that are both reliable and entirely independent.

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:Symposium of Australian Gastronomy 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.

Hi there Double Grazing,

Thank you for reviewing the page I submitted on the Symposium of Australian Gastronomy. I will continue to work on the page and attempt to meet the criteria.

A quick question, if you don't mind. The Australian Symposium followed on from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_Symposium_on_Food_and_Cookery and I used this page as a model. The Symposiums are related as much as there are any people who present and/or attend across both. This page lists more published articles than have been written about SAG, but most are written by participants. What appears on this page that I have not demonstrated on the SAG page?

Any help and guidance appreciated. I will also visit the Teahouse.

Thank you, Barbara Cookbookcollector (talk) 23:26, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
