Speedy deletion nomination of John Darnell (Musician)[edit]

Hello Jdarne01,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged John Darnell (Musician) for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Kavdiamanju (talk) 18:34, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia & autobiographies[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but it appears you have written or added to an article about yourself, at John Darnell (musician). Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you.

Your submission at Articles for creation: John Darnell (April 16)[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 Dan arndt 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 music-related topics, 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:

This is border on the author's own vanity page. The article should address the criteria under WP:NMUSICIAN. It needs to cite multiple independent verifiable secondary sources. The two references cited are photos of John Darnell, which establishes nothing other than he exists. Personal websites, YouTube, Facebook, BandCamp and SoundCloud are not considered to be reliable sources.

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:John Darnell 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:John Darnell, 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.

Hello, Jdarne01! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

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!

John Darnell[edit]

Based on your username, the fact that you have only edited this one subject, and the number of preceding comments by other editors it is clearly that everyone has assumed that you are either John Darnell or somebody closely associated with him. As previously stated by others writing your own biography or the biography of someone closely associated with you on Wikipedia is actively discouraged - see WP:AUTO.

In addition in order to establish notability any biography of a living person needs demonstrate significant coverage in multiple independent verifiable secondary sources - see WP:ANYBIO. Social media websites, personal websites and blogs are not considered to be reliable independent sources.

Finally in the case of a musician in order to establish the artist’s notability the article should address at least one of the criteria under WP:NMUSICIAN. I hope that this advice clarifies my position in respect to your draft article. Dan arndt (talk) 11:57, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (January 24)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Dan arndt were:

The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.

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 music-related topics). 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:

Fails WP:ANYBIO and WP:NMUSICIAN - all information should be supported by inline citations to independent reliable secondary sources. Amazon, Apple Music, Spotify and other music retail websites are not independent or reliable sources.

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.
