Can you put a line (----) between these references, or something? I'd be happy to try to format them correctly, but I can't tell where one ends and the next begins. Belbury (talk) 12:55, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

I have put a line under all references on the draft page.

thanks again in advance for your help. Box32 (talk) 13:20, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Notability

All the sources appear to be primary sources (newspaper accounts). What secondary sources discuss this club? Secondary sources would not be accounts of fights etc. They would be sources analysing the club, or providing a history of it. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:33, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

Primary sources are perfect. New papers, television etc Box32 (talk) 06:19, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Have a read of WP:N. In establishing whether a subject is notable for a page, you need secondary sources covering the topic. This is because Wikipedia itself is an encyclopaedia and thus not a secondary source. Wikipedia is a tertiary source. See the section of that page, WP:WHYN for more on that. Also see the section on WP:GNG which states, inter alia,

Availability of secondary sources covering the subject is a good test for notability.

and

"Sources" should be secondary sources, as those provide the most objective evidence of notability.

Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 08:19, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

However, sustained coverage is an indicator of notability, as described by notability of events. New organisations and future events. Sustained media coverage / television / books / newspapers over period of 1912 to 2024, is a sustained period of coverage from representing the country / team GB and involvement with Olympic squad. Box32 (talk) 10:53, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

The key word there is "events". An event is notable if it continues to be covered long after the fact. Sustained coverage. Events, not organisations. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:16, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

These are the applicable guidelines: WP:NORG. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:20, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

No it Includes organisations and events and new events.

National events such as the England Boxing national championships have been held at the club over sustained period.

Never the less it is also notable under other reasons and factors.

it’s under review so it’s not for us to assume.

This is a ongoing article and please feel free to add to it. Box32 (talk) 11:49, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Secondary sources involve generalisation, analysis, interpretation, or evaluation of the original information. Some primary sources maybe secondary, some of the news paper article are secondary and the mentions in books are secondary. Box32 (talk) 06:23, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Which articles do you believe are secondary sources? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 08:20, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Which articles to you feel are not secondary ?

feel free to add any information to the page. Box32 (talk) 10:43, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Per WP:PRIMARYNEWS, all of them. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 11:13, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

The mainstream media newspapers and television bbc1 news all mention the club in both primary and secondary sources. Box32 (talk) 11:51, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

What secondary source coverage have you found? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 12:23, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Multiple sources,what secondary sources have you found ? Box32 (talk) 13:38, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

This is going nowhere. As I have stated, I have found none. You have not identified any either. This won't get through review if you can't find any secondary sources. I am trying to help you with what is needed here, but at this point I'll just leave it there. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 14:08, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

There are multiple secondary sources already cited. Box32 (talk) 14:19, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia articles should be based on reliable, published sources, making sure that all majority and significant minority views that have appeared in those sources are covered. Box32 (talk) 10:59, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

All 3 news shopper articles are secondary.
