Your submission at Articles for creation: Coffee Shop University (February 23) edit

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Hoary was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), 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:

The article comes with a long bibliography. It's not clear what this is -- is it perhaps a reproduction of the bibliography within the book? -- but what is clear is that it's not a bibliography about the book. The "References" appear to be related the author but not to the book. There's also an improper list of links to retailers. That aside, the text seems merely promotional. Sample taken at random: "Relentless, unconventional and independent; these successive experiences yield immense benefits for personal development." Who says these experiences are relentless, that they're unconventional, that they're independent, that they yield such benefits?

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:Coffee Shop University and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Draft titling and book notability edit

Latest comment: 7 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

"Draft:..." would be the title of a draft for an article titled "...". I don't suppose that you want to create this.

"Draft:Coffee Shop University by Mario Kfoury" would be the title of a draft for an article titled "Coffee Shop University by Mario Kfoury". That's not the way articles on books are titled. Even if there's an ambiguity, it's fixed in some other way. (Cf the articles Nine Stories (Salinger) and Nine Stories (Nabokov).)

The inherent significance of a book is of no concern to Wikipedia. What matters is what independent, reliable sources have already said about it on web pages or in magazines, books etc that are accessible to the public. The vast majority of published books do not have articles in Wikipedia, nor should they. -- Hoary (talk) 05:48, 2 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Never mind Hoary when there'll be reliable sources we shall return and present another article.- Ducati-2007 (talk) 04:26, 3 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
