I'm trying to publish a Wikipedia article about model and activist Isabelle Boemeke, but it looks like my submission was declined, even though there are relevant and significant secondary sources about her, such as Vice, Highsnobiety, and Grist, who all wrote features about Boemeke. If I remove primary sources and sources where Boemeke is merely mentioned, will this article be approved? What can I do to get this article approved?

 * You don't seem to understand the concept of reliable sources, a category which does not include gossip sites and trash media like Highsnobiety, far less TikTok videos. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  13:00, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

This company is notable enough for inclusion in Wikipedia based on Notability guidelines for organizations and companies. Here is some significant coverage by prominent national publications about the company and its products:

Hello, I recently started a page for a person (Draft:Brian Cha) and submitted it for review but was rejected with the reason being that "This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article". I've looked at pages of similar people who also achieved a Guinness World Record such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sultan_K%C3%B6sen and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandra_Bahadur_Dangi and saw most of their sources were also from news sites such as The Independent, The Daily Telegraph etc. whereas on this page that I created, I've listed sources from the official Guinness World Records website and similar reputable news sites such as the South China Morning Post (SCMP). What kind of other sources is required in order to this page approved? What do elements do these other pages have that mine does not that lets them become approved? Please let me know, thank you.
 * Unless the articles you refer to are classified as Good Articles(see the talk pages) they probably are not the best guides to use. It could be that these other articles have the same issues as your draft.  As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible to get inappropriate articles by us; we can only address what we know about.
 * The Personal Life section is completely unsourced; if that were sourced, it might help. The sources that you do offer seem to offer little beyond merely telling what he has done- we need sources with significant coverage of the subject.  Please see Your First Article.  The good news is that the draft was only declined, meaning it is at least possible for it to be improved. 331dot (talk) 08:25, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

The submission I made states that there is another submission that has not been reviewed. But I am not able to see this previous submission in my sandbox. There is a button to resubmit. I am not able to understand if I should resubmit or wait till the previous submission is reviewed as it has been over two weeks. Kindly let me know what can be done.

Request on 12:33:10, 29 July 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Nirdis
My submission get declined, I don't know how a poor article like this one below get accepted. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dasun_Madushan Nirdis (talk) 12:33, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Neither do I, it should probably be deleted! See other poor quality articles exist. Theroadislong (talk) 13:22, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Answer: It wasn't. It was created directly in mainspace and never went through the Articles for Creation process. (AfC wasn't made mandatory until Feb 2018; this article was created October 2013.) —A little blue Bori  v^_^v  Jéské Couriano 19:50, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

In the review of my page, I was told I would need additional references showing significant coverage before resubmitting. How many more should be added? A.H.L17 (talk) 12:38, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
 * The problem is not quantity but quality. ANYTHING from the subject of the article is useless. Anything which looks like a regurgitated press release is worthless. What we need is links to substantive press coverage from reliable sources, publications of note with a reputation for sound journalism within their field. -- Orange Mike  &#124;  Talk  12:55, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

 * How many of your sources actually discuss Nyirinkwaya and are independent of him? —A little blue Bori  v^_^v  Jéské Couriano 17:46, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

I am requesting help to make my article more neutral and to get help on showing significant coverage about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. The article I need help editing is here: Draft:Assaf Biderman

 * Your draft just tells about the person and what they do. Wikipedia articles must do more, they must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about a person, showing how they meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. Significant coverage goes beyone brief mentions or merely telling what the person has done; they are in depth discussion of the person that is not prompted by the person themselves(not an interview or press release) You will need to gather at least three sources with significant coverage to summarize. If no such sources exist, this person would not merit a Wikipedia article at this time. 331dot (talk) 11:20, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
