Your submission at Articles for creation: Arthur H. Miles (October 28)

Latest comment: 4 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 Hoary 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:

How does Miles meet WP:ARTIST? Also, there are digressions. Also, much is unreferenced. Also, most of what references are provided are formatted idiosyncratically -- and many are obscure, for example, is "Community Link. Pentrych Community Council" a pamphlet, a web page, or what? Also, much else is formatted idiosyncratically. Even if the subject matter somehow met WP:ARTIST, rearranging and reformatting this draft into a presentable state would take a prohibitive amount of time. The creator is not obliged to perfect it before publication, but should considerably improve it.

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:Arthur H. Miles and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Arthur H. Miles, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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, Gwaelodian. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Arthur H. Miles".

If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗plicit 01:27, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
