Latest comment: 4 months ago3 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 reasons left by 1AmNobody24 were:

The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.

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.

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:Lilia Salgueiro de Simek 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.

Thanks! No problem, this is just a beginners draft... I am quite frustrated because I was not allowed to upload the digital form of an old family photo, nor could find any third-party citations online. It's a complete ouroboros. Can't find online references, therefore I am not allowed to create one! There was just the one college newspaper interview, from 1944, that I found online years ago, but although I have the screenshot, the link is no longer there, so even that could not be used as a reference. Another third-party source is an old copy of a 1944 newspaper. And that's it. My subject, who also happens to be my grandmother, seems to have been erased from history. And Wikipedia doesn't want ME to create the entry because I am related to her. Bah. Maya Iriondo (talk) 08:36, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
