Your submission at Articles for creation: Experimental Biology meeting (April 9)[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 Joseph2302 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 general guideline on notability 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:

No evidence it passes WP:NEVENT. We need evidence of significant, independent coverage in reliable sources, per WP:GNG.

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:Experimental Biology meeting 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.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello! Geoffhunt3, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that 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! Joseph2302 (talk) 21:34, 9 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome (again)[edit]

Following your post at WT:MICRO, a belated welcome! It looks like your previous foray into Wikipedia could've gone better, so I think we can get you off to a better start this time. I've moved your draft to mainspace, so it now resides at the title Microbiology Spectrum. I left some comments for you at Talk:Microbiology Spectrum as well. Feel free to respond any time.

More importantly, I'm glad to see another microbiology-interested editor around. We are currently too few. You mentioned that your edits are part of your role at ASM. I'm sure there are places where ASM's interests align with Wikipedia's. If you need help working in those places, or finding those places, let me know any time and I'll help how I can. Most importantly, I hope you're staying well during these crazy times. I'll see you around. Best, Ajpolino (talk) 21:26, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Ajpolino! I'll go over your questions on Microbiology Spectrum with the editorial team and get them addressed right away.

As I mentioned, I'd also love to get members of ASM contributing to microbiology topics on Wikipedia. My first thought is organizing an edit-a-thon, but I’m open to other ideas as well. If you have thoughts or could help me set something like that up, let me know and we can connect by email.

Sure, I'd be happy to help. You can email me through Special:EmailUser/Ajpolino any time. Ajpolino (talk) 04:19, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Grandmaster Recorders (May 19)[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 Lopifalko 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 organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and 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:

Doesn't have the required reliable sources with significant coverage of this as a studio.

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:Grandmaster Recorders 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:Grandmaster Recorders, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to 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.
