00:14:56, 22 February 2023 review of draft by ConsKrypt
Hello, my article for the new interim coach for Brisbane Roar FC has been declined due to references not being suffice, I was wondering how they are not suffice as it includes an official statement from the football club themselves addressing the proof of the information to be correct. The page in question is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Nick_Green_(Interim_Coach) that has been declined. This is my first wiki submission in terms of a new entry rather than small edits/corrections to existing articles.

I am looking for tips as to how to help with the article being accepted to reduce the amount of 'red links' on Wikipedia. Thank you for taking the time to read this help request. ConsKrypt (talk) 00:14, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi @ConsKrypt, the club is a primary source. What you need are secondary reliable sources, unconnected to the club and Green that have written in-depth about Green (not interviews or what they say themselves).  Read through the links in the decline message.  S0091 (talk) 15:05, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

I was wondering why my draft submission was rejected, when a similar article (Emily Geach) has been accepted? The same type of sources were used for both articles.Spal07 (talk) 10:17, 22 February 2023 (UTC) Spal07 (talk) 10:17, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
 * That another article exists does not necessarily mean that it was approved or accepted by anyone; there are numerous ways for inappropriate content to get past us, see other stuff exists. It could be that this other article has similar problems as your draft and you wouldn't be aware of this. If you want to use other articles as a model, use those classified as good articles, which have been vetted by the community.
 * Please see the comments left bythe reviewer at the top of your draft. 331dot (talk) 10:22, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

Are you a bot?


 * no, reviewers are not bots. Do you have a question about your draft? &mdash; Ingenuity (talk &bull; contribs) 18:35, 22 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Somaolduin you have a good start on the draft but is there another source or two outside the local area that has written in-depth about the newspaper? That would help.  S0091 (talk) 20:19, 22 February 2023 (UTC)

Hello - I do not understand why you have rejected this addition. The venue hosts hundreds of music acts every year and has for the last 12 years. Any venue that has hosted over 1000 acts deserves to be in Wikipedia. Please explain why this is rejected and why the listed sources are not satisfactory.

 * Please read the links in the decline message you received. Wikipedia doesn't care about how many acts a venue has hosted - sorry. The definition of "notability" here depends entirely on whether the topic has been covered in secondary sources. -- asilvering (talk) 18:13, 22 February 2023 (UTC)
