Help me!
Help me with this matter: I want to add a tool to the article "List of GUI Testing tool" (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_GUI_testing_tools), because I really think it´s a good and valuable proprietary tool. I know that you can edit the list only if the tool you want to add is notable enough to deserve an article entry on wikipedia. On the purpose of heling to compelte the list I tried to write a short article about the tool, but unfortunately it was rejected because it is not notable enough. So I have the feeling I got stuck in a kind of vicious cycle. I checked also the articles releted to the other tools available on the list, and lots of them don´t seem to me to be less or more notable than the tool I want to add.

My questions are: what can I do? How can I get out of this "vicious cycle"? Do you maybe have any suggestion for me?

Thank you very much in advance for your help! Kind regards,

Anele

 * Hi Anele, your draft Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/TestObject was rejected for this reason: "This submission's references do not adequately evidence the subject's notability." That doesn't sound to me that the person who rejected it was commenting on the notability of the tool, rather that the references you provided didn't establish that notability.  The user also provided a link to the general notability guideline (which hopefully you read!)


 * Basically, it's up to you to establish notability. Looking at your references, I see a TechCrunch article that doesn't say much about what the tool is, or how useful it is, (is it the tool or the company?), there are references to the primary source's website (testobject.com), and then a third reference to another primary source, a press kit.  The general notability guideline states "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list."  Three references from the primary source (the company) does not qualify as "significant coverage from reliable sources that are independent of the subject".


 * But fear not, your article is not dead--if you can find reliable independent sources that assert the value and importance of the tool, you can add those references and resubmit your article. And of course, if you have specific questions about why it was declined, you can always contact the editor who declined it, ChrisGualtieri.  Hope that helps.
