01:01:53, 30 July 2018 review of submission by Brahben
Why article is being declined How many references are required to suffice Need formatting assistance Brahben (talk) 01:01, 30 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi . Novice editors are usually advised to cite at least three sources. To demonstrate notability, the three sources need to be independent of the subject, among other things. In other words, they should not be written by the subject, which all of the draft's sources are. It would be highly unusual for an assistant professor to pass Wikipedia's notability criteria for inclusion in the encyclopedia. If professors become notable at all, it usually isn't until late in their careers, after they have written many things that have been widely cited by other academics. The subject does not appear to be a suitable topic for an encyclopedia article at this time. --Worldbruce (talk) 03:16, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

My article submission on the Financial Industry Business Ontology (FIBO) was rejected as being written as a promotion rather than an encyclopedia. I'd be grateful for any advice on how to improve. The copy is below

Financial Industry Business Ontology (FIBO)

The Financial Industry Business Ontology (FIBO) is an open-source, business conceptual model of how financial instruments, business entities and financial processes work across the global financial industry. It was developed as a collaborative initiative by the members of the Enterprise Data Management Council to standardize the terms, conditions and characteristics of reference data stored in the master files of financial institutions, vendors, regulators and others involved in the financial information chain of supply.

FIBO is expressed in the Web Ontology Language (OWL) standard for machine readable inference processing as well as in glossaries, UML diagrams and spreadsheets for evaluation by financial professionals. By taking advantage of the RDF/OWL Web standard, FIBO uses machine intelligence and network graph capabilities to express, classify and link data.

History

FIBO has been under development since 2008. It started as a project by several financial institutions to compare data from multiple sources and create a single point of reference for data mapping. FIBO is a conceptual ontology illustrating the “things in the world” of financial services. An ontology in OWL consists of statements about Classes (i.e. sets of things) and Properties (ways things relate to other things). In this way, FIBO gives meaning to data in any format (e.g. spreadsheets, relational databases, XML documents) that describe the sets of things associated with financial business applications. FIBO considers both Classes and Properties to be Concepts. The languages of Ontologies were originally developed by the US DoD and are codified by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C).

FIBO Maturity Levels

FIBO is published at two levels, each with a complete set of supporting artifacts.

•	FIBO Production – contains content that has passed unit and integration testing. Production ontologies has passed rigorous tests for completeness, consistency and documentation. FIBO Production is published at the end of each quarter

•	FIBO Development – contains content that have passed on minimum scrutiny for referential consistency (i.e. every reference is defined). FIBO Production is published continuously as content is developed.

Accessing FIBO

FIBO consists of 11 core domains and over 400 ontology files. The system of record for FIBO is the Web Ontology Language (OWL). FIBO can be opened with any RDF-compliant tool. FIBO is published in multiple RDF serializations including RDF/XML, Turtle, JSON-LD and N-Quads. All expressions of FIBO are posted at https://spec.edmcouncil.org/fibo.

Language of Contracts

FIBO is a formal model of the legal structures, rights and obligations contained in the contracts and agreements that form the foundation of the financial industry. It is a collaborative process based on unraveling issuance documents, standardizing the legal language of business relationships, expressing the time dimensions of market data and capturing the requirements associated with corporate actions.
