Your submission at Articles for creation: Jules Howard (April 23) edit

Latest comment: 12 days ago4 comments2 people 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 Drmies 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 people). 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:

Draft reads like a resume, lacks secondary sourcing discussing the subject and their work.

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:Jules Howard 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.

Hello, Flatworm222! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Drmies (talk) 13:48, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Good edit. Keep in mind that notability comes from what secondary sources have said about the topic, not from the resume itself. But before we go on I have to ask about your relationship with the subject. Do you have a conflict of interest? Please see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest--thank you.

Hi Drmies, glad to hear that edit was better. I have read the Conflict of Interest document and I have to confess to you, in the spirit of the worthy aims of Wikipedia and all the positive work that editors like you do, that there is a conflict of interest. I am actually this person. (People say to me often, "Why are you not on Wikipedia?" so I thought setting up a page would be the simple solution, having seen some other author pages). I felt like I have to be honest, after properly reading that document. I can only apologise! Flatworm222 (talk) 18:08, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
