My article was [RAMIL LAO GENTUGAYA]
Thank you for your help!
- Hsagulo Hi Greetings to you. I have reviewed your article; however currently the article does not meet the politician notabiity guidelines.
- Being a local politician (a municipal mayor) doesnt not inherently notable unless the subject has received WP:SIGCOV significant national or international coverage which the sources talk about the subject "directly and not mere passing.
- Sources provided currently are primary. Citations of independent, reliable sources (secondary sources) are required from Wikipedia for vitrifaction, sources such as from major reliable newspaper or publications would be acceptable. Thank you.
- Reviewer David.moreno72 did leave you a message on the draft page and also the are messages and links on top of the page (the grey box within the salmon color box) indicated of the notability issues in respond to two of your submission prior.
- Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 04:12, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
Hi! I'm a "newcomer" and I’m trying to create my first article (Draft:Francisco_Reynés) but it seems that it isn't accurate... I have checked and I have noticed that there are Spanish business executives that have an English article in Wikipedia (Ana Patricia Botín, José María Álvarez-Pallete, Borja Prado, etc...), and recently, Gas Natural Fenosa has appointed as the new Executive Chaiman so I think this could be significant and must be included in Wikipedia. Could anyone help me? Thank you in advance! ImTheSpaceman (talk) 15:32, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- It isn't that it isn't accurate, it has been rejected for failure to show notability. You may want to reach out to one of the users (Sir Joseph or MadeYourReadThis who declined the draft to ask what additional information would show notability. Each language wikipedia has different rules on things like notability, so the existence of the Spanish page doesn't necessarily mean that the person is notable.Naraht (talk) 18:00, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you for your help. I thought I could start by following the example of Borja Prado (chairman of Endesa). Does this article demonstrate notability? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ImTheSpaceman (talk • contribs) 11:24, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
- @ImTheSpaceman: No, clearly Borja Prado does not demonstrate notability. If it cannot be improved, it should be deleted. Don't mimic random articles, you can't assume that they meet Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS for more information. If you wish to learn from examples, be sure to use Wikipedia's best. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:58, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

- Hi Tasminabona. Creating a new encyclopedia article is one of the most difficult, time consuming, and frustrating tasks you can attempt on Wikipedia. "Your first article" gives a high level overview of the process and links to many more pages of information, such as who is and isn't notable (suitable for inclusion in the enclopedia), and why independent sources (not him, his company, or organizations he's a member of) are needed to determine that.
- I strongly recommend that instead of trying to create a new article, you spend a few weeks or months improving existing articles. It is essential work, much easier, and will leave you better prepared to create new articles. See Wikipedia:Community portal for ways to help out. --Worldbruce (talk) 00:34, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
