Your submission at Articles for creation: Dave Lewis (writer) (January 9)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Dial911 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 guidelines on the notability of people, 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:

Fails as per WP:Notability (people)

Ways to improve Welsh Poetry Competition

Thanks for creating Welsh Poetry Competition.

A New Page Patroller Onel5969 just tagged the page as having some issues to fix, and wrote this note for you:

Please provide references for the information in the prose section of the article. In other words, if you assert something, e.g. "largest of its kind", please reference where you got that information. Nice little article.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can reply over here and ping me. Or, for broader editing help, you can talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Concern regarding Draft:Poetry Book Awards

Hello, Hobobob. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Poetry Book Awards, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Draft space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for article space.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion under CSD G13. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it. You may request userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available here.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 13:09, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Poetry Book Awards moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Poetry Book Awards, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Hobobob. Thank you for your work on Poetry Book Awards. User:Onel5969, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

What you need to show notability is in-depth coverage about the Awards. What you currently have are some mentions of folks who have won the award, and some press releases.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Dave Lewis (writer) (May 11)

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 MaxnaCarta was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: I did not consider this notable. Got second opinion which I don’t normally do for a reject, but given the editor has worked on it for such a long time I thought I would. After many editors have reviewed, including myself, Theroadislong’s comments make me confident my decision to reject is correct. I do not believe this article would pass an AFD due to notability issues which no amount of editing can overcome.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Poetry Book Awards (October 24)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

Nearly all of the cited sources are written by the organizers themselves.

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.
