@User192828: where did you get the information that is currently in the draft? Cite that source. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 04:52, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I had a note after review

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 for sports persons and athletes). 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.

Can somebody help me? Why is the reference not reliable?

Alexandrsashin (talk) 07:47, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It probably is reliable but that is all you have, and we require more, at least three usually which cover the topic in-depth with significant coverage. Theroadislong (talk) 08:14, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I try to add more references. Alexandrsashin (talk) 12:25, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

how should i do refferencing so that my draft can be accepted and published

Mwenye mudzi ndimi (talk) 09:23, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Mwenye mudzi ndimi: you need to clearly cite reliable sources (see WP:REFB) to support the draft contents, and those sources must establish that the subject is notable per WP:GNG; your draft currently does neither. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:27, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

can I add something to the drwft title please? [to differentiate from others with exactly same name]. also- how do I upload pictures please.

Don't worry about the title, if/when the draft is accepted, it will be moved to its correct title (probably Mike McNeill (guitarist) as that is the least amount of disambiguation necessary).
As for uploading images, see WP:FUW. Please ensure you comply with copyright rules. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:49, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Much more importantly, your draft has zero independent, reliable zero sources, and that is what we base articles on. The subject would need to pass the criteria at WP:NMUSICIAN to be accepted. Theroadislong (talk) 17:39, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
