The Article was declined because its sources were not reliable but the sources cited are one of the most reliable in the country. Kindly guide on how to improve. Tobi19 (talk) 09:10, 19 November 2017 (UTC) Tobi19 (talk) 09:10, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

No, the issue is not reliability. The article was rejected because the independent sources cited do not include in-depth discussion of the subject. The first and fourth are directory entries. The second and third mention the subject but do not discuss it. Maproom (talk) 08:29, 20 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I can't seem to get the references working properly, it's been a long time since I've been here. I would really appreciate it if someone helped out with them or told me where I'm going wrong. Thanks heaps!

@Selwynr: I've done with the references what I think you meant. See Help:Referencing for beginners for more information. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:08, 19 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello,

so my article has been moved now, instead of answering me to what I had to say about being it the second time rejected. After all the history with my article, I suppose it was a punishment for starting to argue with two moderators. But then I guess I should never have admitted that English is not my native language. My article has no political problem, I do not attack anybody, I stole no text, if I copied, I did my own work, I use no slang words, but still the article gets rejected two times. If I may say so, I would love to know why the article is now called: Catherine (1963 novel) - and not "Catherine (Juliette Benzoni)". No one will connect this article now with the author Juliette Benzoni and her first international Bestseller.

So it is only good enough for a C rating thank you very much - and I find this on the page: This section is in a list format that may be better presented using prose. You can help by converting this section to prose, if appropriate. Editing help is available.

So please,if there is anyone out there, who would like to support my article, please be so kind. Also, explain to me in words what is meant with "may be better presented using prose! I would appreciate it very much. Best Laramie1960 (talk) 17:13, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
