Your submission at Articles for creation: Deron Triff (July 2)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by TipsyElephant were:

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.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Many of the sources either barely mention Triff or don't mention Triff at all. Many of the sources also have borderline reliability such as WP:FORBESCON, WP:MASHABLE, and WP:TECHCRUNCH. There are also promotional claims in the article, some of which aren't sourced at all. If you have a WP:COI please disclose that on the talk page.

Hi TipsyElephant - This is my first time creating an article, so I figured there would be some issues. I've been editing some other pages and kept coming across his name so figured he was significant enough for his own page. I'll work on removing the borderline sources and tightening the article up generally. If you have any other specific suggestions I'd totally welcome them!

Your submission at Articles for creation: Deron Triff (October 7)[edit]

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

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

For a person to have a Wikipedia article, they need to be notable. Part of the notability requirement is that several secondary sources provide significant coverage of that person. None of the sources cited here discuss Tiff in-depth.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Possible (podcast) (December 20)[edit]

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The Signal Award seems promising, but other references here are not independent of the podcast. Could reliable independent sources be found?

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.
