Your submission at Articles for creation: Students Organising for Sustainability United Kingdom (SOS-UK) (March 20)

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments1 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 Mako001 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Of the four notable sources, all are from The Guardian, which is well known to publish a lot on climate action groups, and yet only two of the articles even mention this organisation at all, and neither focus on this organisation specifically. One of the four is actually an opinion piece. What I mean is, If anyone was going to publish anything about this group, it would be The Guardian, and the lack of coverage from them is quite telling. In addition, there are some occasional WP:NPOV issues with the article as well.

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.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Hammersoft 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 (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). 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:

As with User:Mako001, I'm still not seeing significant coverage in reliable sources. There are a lot of sources noted here, but almost all of them mention the organization in passing. Some of the sources are to the organization itself, or to people who work for or are related to the organization/acting on behalf of them. These constitute WP:PRIMARY sources and do not support claims of notability. Ok sure, this organization exists, but it doesn't seem to have attracted significant attention in reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the organization. I'm leaning towards rejecting this rather than declining it. I'm declining it, but please find better sources to support notability of this organization.
