Your submission at Articles for creation: Sonique Drums (June 24)

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

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.

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft is written from the viewpoint of the company, focusing on what the company says about itself. Corporate notability is based on what independent reliable sources have written about the subject. Not every business corporation is notable, and this draft does not establish corporate notability. You may ask for advice about corporate notability at the Teahouse.

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:Sonique Drums and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Sonique Drums

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Sonique Drums, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hello.

The intent here is not for advertisement and this is my first wiki article. I'm more than willing to use the wizard and other sources to ultimately get to the preferred, encyclopedic format. Unnecessary user (talk) 12:54, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hello. I'm keenly aware now of the writing style needed to qualify for a Wikipedia article. However, this is not my company and I am just a fan who noticed that there was no Wiki about them and decided to make one. I'm trying, and seemingly failing to make the distinction that I am not a bad actor, which ironically, goes against the "Assume good faith" ethos on talk pages. But somehow (at least for me) it is automatically assumed that I am a bad actor instead of simply rejecting the draft and informing me that I'm doing it wrong. As I've mentioned earlier, I'm happy to work on this and include proper citations, references, and adjust the writing style but the reaction to the draft submission feels overly harsh and not assuming good faith.

Decline reason:

I am not going to unblock you so you can write about Sonique Drums. If you want to edit other subjects, you should say so in your next unblock request. PhilKnight (talk) 16:30, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request reason:

Hello. I don't think my contributions would be limited to what I just randomly picked as my first attempt so, yes I would agree that my intent is to make contributions to other articles. But I suppose I'm not clear about the desired outcome here. If the goal is to create quality articles about a person, company, band, artist, etc. And these articles are written in a neutral, and encyclopedic format, then I think I understand the underlying mission. But if it's something other than that, then I need more clarification about what should be banned (other than advertisement) so I don't end up in this purgatory again.

Decline reason:

You are apparently so much of a fan of Sonique Drums that you wrote as if you were their employee. You seem to have only provided the company website as a source- that's not what we want. Wikipedia articles primarily summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage choose on their own to say about a topic- in this case, a business- showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of notability(such as a notable organization). Wikipedia is not a place to just tell about a topic and what it does. Writing a new article is the most difficult task to attempt on Wikipedia, and it's highly recommended to first get some experience under your belt by editing existing articles and using the new user tutorial first. My advice would be that you not dive right back into creating articles, or at least that you not create articles about topics for which you are a "fan" of(just interested in would be my advice). Please tell in a new request what topics you might contribute about. 331dot (talk) 08:11, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
