Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (June 17)[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 Theroadislong 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. 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.

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 User:RWK42oldwiki/sandbox 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 User:RWK42oldwiki/sandbox, 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.

Hello Liz,

Agreed it has been a long time since editing my proposed Wikipedia article on the Offense Efficiency Rating. I got to a point in the Wikipedia process (an unfamiliar process to me) then got Covid which knocked my routines off track. I've been busy with other important (to me) work since. So, apologies.

I would like to complain, though, that my project has not been deemed 'unsuitable'; what I have done is very incomplete and I have much more to add to my sandbox as swell as rewrite according to what I have learned about Wikipedia requirements. My project is just stalled. The Wikipedia process is unfamiliar and I still have things to learn about it; I need encouragement.

Could you please return the sandbox entry by August 14 so I can restart work on it? Thanks so much. 2407:7000:84F2:1400:1DC0:7D0C:D53E:26EC (talk) 23:38, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Liz,

Thanks for your message. I'm so sorry I have not been able to get back to the article. My article is an 'origin story' which basketball coaches, players and fans will enjoy. I need to take care of a few currently priority things. I very much want to finish this article. I have several other references which I can use.

Cheers,
