Your submission at Articles for creation: Eric Leonard (December 26)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by JC7V7DC5768 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). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Fails WP:FOOTY and WP:GNG. Didn't play in a league enough to garner notability for inclusion. Please provide better sources (non routine, independent, more than in passing) .

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:Eric Leonard and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Eric Leonard, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Eric Leonard (December 27)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by CASSIOPEIA was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: G'day and welcome to AfC help desk. First of all Wikipedia strongly discourage editor write about themselves - see WP:AUTOBIOGRAPHY and secondly the subject fails the notability of Football (soccer), see WP:NFOOTBALL, guidelines as collegiate soccer nor Nerang Eagles (it is not one the club of Australia A League) is one of the list in Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Fully professional leagues. Secondly the contained claimed need to supported by independence, reliable source. The source from Goldcoast Bulletin is considered reliable but not independent as it is a interview piece where by the subject provide the information, thus the source is associated with the subject and it would considered NOT independent. When the subject make it to any of the club as per professional list above, then it is welcome to create the article. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA^(talk) 05:06, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
