Review of Articles for creation/Blood Ceremony (band)
Hello, My article for the band Blood Ceremony has been rejected twice because I've failed to establish their notability, but I believe I have shown that the band meets at least three of Wikipedia's notability criteria:

1.Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself.[note 1] This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, books, magazine articles, online versions of print media, and television documentaries[note 2] except for the following: Any reprints of press releases, other publications where the musician or ensemble talks about themselves, and all advertising that mentions the musician or ensemble, including manufacturers' advertising.[note 3] Works comprising merely trivial coverage, such as articles that simply report performance dates, release information or track listings, or the publications of contact and booking details in directories. Articles in a school or university newspaper (or similar) would generally be considered trivial but should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

- I have provided at least two articles from online publications that are independent and reliable (The Quietist and The Torontoist).

5.Has released two or more albums on a major label or on one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years, and with a roster of performers, many of whom are notable).

- The band has released two albums on Metal Blade Records, one of the premiere labels in heavy metal for the past 25-30 years.

7.Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city; note that the subject must still meet all ordinary Wikipedia standards, including verifiability.

- The Torontoist calls the band "Toronto's most original band"

In addition to these, I have shown that the band has toured extensively with two of the most influential bands in the subgenre of doom metal (Electric Wizard and Ghost), and has been reviewed and interviewed on reputable online magazines.

Please help me understand what I need to do to get the article to pass Wikipedia's requirements. Thank you.

My article has not been approved... please can you tell me which section needs to be edited. Thank you very much — Preceding unsigned comment added by Juliahuiemartin (talk • contribs) 21:51, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Articles require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Right now, there are no sources at all in your submission. Please add reliable, independent sources and resubmit. Nolelover Talk·Contribs 22:03, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Someone has recently deleted a photo (Oliver_Publicity_Photo_2012a) that my company owns the copyright to. Please let me know what I need to do in order to have this photo added back to the Wiki Commons, and what I need to do in the future to avoid being incorrectly flagged
