Your submission at Articles for creation: Katherine Elkins (July 12)

Latest comment: 2 days 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 Cabrils was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs to

meet any of the eight academic-specific criteria
or cite multiple reliable, secondary sources independent of the subject, which cover the subject in some depth

Make sure your draft meets one of the criteria above before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If the subject does not meet any of the criteria, it is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:ANYBIO, WP:NPROF) but presently it is not clear that it does.

As you may know, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see the articles ‘Your First Article’, ‘Referencing for Beginners’ and ‘Easier Referencing for Beginners’. Please note that many of the references are not from sources that are considered reliable for establishing notability, including articles written by the subject, as opposed to articles about the subject. Additionally, the draft tends to read too much like a CV, which Wikipedia is not. The draft does not appear to show that the subject has any notability beyond the average coverage for similar academics (see WP:ROTM). Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements, then please make the necessary amendments before resubmitting the page. It would help our volunteer reviewers by identifying, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject. It would also be helpful if you could please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:NPROF criteria #3, because XXXXX").

Once you have implemented these suggestions, you may also wish to leave a note for me on my talk page and I would be happy to reassess.

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:Katherine Elkins 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.

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

The subject may be notable per WP:NPROF if she has a full professor appointment. Can you explain whether or not that is the case? Please also remove any external links from the body. Best, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 16:41, 13 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks again for the quick reply. Yes, Katherine Elkins is a full professor at Kenyon College with the title "Professor of Comparative Literature and Humanities". I forgot to mention that she has been the Director of the "Integrated Program for Humane Studies (IPHS) for years although she has been on sabbatical this past year (2023-2024)

https://www.kenyon.edu/directory/kate-elkins/.

Here is the link announcing her elevation to full professorship by the Kenyon College Board of Directors:

https://www.kenyon.edu/news/archive/full-professors-2/

"Katherine Elkins is the Director of the Integrated Program in Humane Studies and co-directs KDH, Kenyon's Digital Humanities Collaboratory. Her research focuses on the role of memory and emotion in the embodied structure of experience, on the long conversation between philosophy and literature, and on the ways in which computational approaches can help us understand language and creativity."

I also forgot to mention that Elkins is faculty in Computing and is listed under the official Kenyon College Computing Program here:

https://www.kenyon.edu/academics/departments-and-majors/computing/computing-faculty/

I'll convert all the external links in the body to citations per your directions after sending this email and add the two salient facts I missed above (her "Director of IPHS" and position as "faculty in Computing"). J2000ai (talk) 19:35, 13 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
