Your submission at Articles for creation
Hello Mikewhite.bromham. Having an article at a sister Wikipedia project doesn't ensure that the subject is notable for the English Wikipedia. The projects are run by a different (although overlapping) set of volunteers, so it's not an oversight to not have an article in English for subjects that exist elsewhere. If the subject is notable, I am sure someone will get to creating the article, in due course. Translations aren't necessarily the way to create a new article. In fact, there are ways in which translating an article results in a subpar article compared to if it was created from scratch. Anyone can create an article/draft from scratch without needing to find articles elsewhere to translate from. Perhaps you'll be able to create it yourself when you gain more experience. If you have anymore questions, you can ask here or on other talkpages or at the Teahouse. Welcome, and good luck! Usedtobecool ✉ ✨ 07:38, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
