Your submission at Articles for creation: 2022 Gary, Indiana Shooting (October 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 Ingenuity 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:

See the notability guideline for events—they must show lasting coverage, which this does not appear to.

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.

Concerns of POV-pushing[edit]

Hey @JPHC2003, I recently reverted some of your recent edits to the pages regarding Ben Shapiro and the Killing of Trayvon Martin. I wanted to let you know that some of what is your basis for those edits seem to advance a personal view not reflected in RS and resembling WP:POV-PUSHING. It's of course important to give WP:DUE weight to both sides, but not reflect the opinionated viewpoint of politically-leaning sources like Mother Jones (it's okay to use them for facts pertaining to a subject, but shouldn't be used exclusively to describe a subject). Controversial topics like the Killing of Trayvon Martin should be approached with caution; I think it would be better to explicitly mention what the sources say instead of simply citing them (i.e. Mother Jones reported that...). GuardianH (talk) 02:49, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, that's fine, sometimes I get caught up. I'm fine with the Ben Shapiro edit because I wrote in a bit of a bad mood. I agree with the need to cite them without a POV, but for the edit regarding the Killing of Trayvon Martin, Zimmerman statements in the recorded video provably contradicts his account of events in police interviews. Perhaps I chose a bad source, but I feel as though it is notable that very little on the internet other than 2 sources I could find (one of them that happened to be Mother Jones). But as long as someone else could point this out in some unbiased way I think that will be fine. I'll also avoid accidental opinion based editing. JPHC2003 (talk) 03:34, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for understanding. It's important to always try to make edits objectively and without bad faith. If you need anymore help in deciding which sources to use or how to word them, you can ping me or another editor — there's also the TeaHouse, which has a lot of editors willing to help.
