Proposed deletion of Susan Wijffels


The article Susan Wijffels has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no reliable references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp/dated tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. David. moreno 72   04:19, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

Follow up
It appears that you're participating in the Wikibomb2016, an editathon for Australian women STEM academics! Welcome to Wikipedia! I see someone has already posted a welcome template on your user page (above), but I wanted to welcome you and say that if you have any questions I'd be happy to assist you. One thing I would recommend you and your fellow Wikibomb2016 editors look at is WP:PROF which is a notability guideline specifically for academics. Unfortunately, not everyone is considered "notable" enough to have their own Wikipedia article (see the general notability guidelines as well). Figuring out Wikipedia's rules and bureaucracy can be frustrating, so feel free to ping me by using  when you reply to this message or you can come to my user talk page at User talk:EvergreenFir if you have any questions.

Susan Wijffels article - some thoughts
Hello, thanks for writing this! The article's been kept and edited to match Wikipedia's manual of style.

As a few recommendations, if creating an article for the first time, it's best to look at featured articles - supposed to be Wikipedia's best - on similar topics to give you some ideas on what to aim for, also look at the notability guideline - Wikipedia's guideline on good subjects for articles. Few suggestions on what to aim for next time: Otherwise best wishes, let me know if any questions or thoughts. Blythwood (talk) 21:03, 17 August 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) If you're writing an article and you're not that experienced, keep it short. Six sentences is normally a good target.
 * 2) Add some inline citations and a reflist. An article should have about five citations, no more than one or two self-authored.
 * 3) Aim for at least six categories.
 * 4) Don't bother with a publication history, it'll be out of date tomorrow. If a scientist has written a really famous paper that might be worth citing, though.

Hi
After all that above - another one - If you have any difficulty, all the above is generic and not Australian - in Australia we have an editing community that is very supportive and editors who are keen to help and speak.

Please never be discouraged!
