Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Legacypac was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

I'll note that AfC is voluntary. If you feel this person meets WP:AUTHOR you can move the page yourself and defend it.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Vicky Mochama and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Vicky Mochama, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
• If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
• You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

An article you recently created, Archives Association of Ontario, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Please note that citing the association itself cannot be used to establish notability, though it can be used for citing facts. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. DannyS712 (talk) 21:13, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@DannyS712:Thanks for the note. I created the article in the main space for a reason - the association is the only professional association for archives/archivists in the province and has a number of Wikipedia pages that (red) link to it. To have it marked for speedy deletion in less than half an hour is, needless to say, disappointing. In the grand scheme of questionable notable content, I'm not convinced this is one of them. --Dnllnd (talk) 21:20, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Dnllnd: I can understand that it is disheartening to have your article marked for deletion. However, I want to point out that I just moved it to draft space, rather than seeking to delete it. I moved it because most of the sources used where references to the association itself, which does not count as independent. I don't object to this being an article, but only to it being an article in its current form. Hopefully this answers your concerns --DannyS712 (talk) 21:26, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@DannyS712:Disheartening isn't the issue so much as an overly strict interpretation of notability given the role of the association, the number of pages that red link to it, and how unlikely it is that multiple mainstream publications are going to write about type of organization to meet the notability rules against which it is being judged. There are myriad association pages in the main space with the same tyoe of sourcing that haven't been deleted or moved to the draft space. I understand your decision and the thinking that led you do it, though I disagree with it. Regardless, it is what it is. Thanks for your time! --Dnllnd (talk) 21:34, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Mjs1991: Thanks for the update. Can you expand on your decision? At least three of the references focus solely on the artist. Is the issue that they're not North American sources? --Dnllnd (talk) 17:20, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dnlld, The references used in this article were the same references used when the article got deleted, as it was discussed here here. Also this website [1] shows what references were used as that site was copied from the original mainspace Wikipedia article. Currently she isn't notable per WP:MUSICBIO. Has she released albums or singles? You could add those if she has.--Mjs1991 (talk) 22:31, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Mjs1991: Hi, there. Thanks for the additional info. Can you have another look at the page or add a note that it should be looked at by another editor? I added additional references in March, and several of them go beyond passing references. I also rewrote most of the article since it was declined in September of 2018 so that it's encyclopedic in tone. Women from the global south are underrepresented on the site. That she's recognized in multiple news pieces for being one of the only female rappers due to the genre being viewed as male-only is notable.

To be clear, I'm not the original creator of the deleted page or this draft. I clean up GC13 articles and resubmit them. I found the page on that list, so another editor had already flagged her as potentially notable before I did any revisions. The changes I made address several of the earlier reasons for deletion, etc. Given the changes and multiple references, I'm not clear on why it was declined again. --Dnllnd (talk) 17:53, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Dnllnd. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Rosa Ree".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! Bkissin (talk) 14:47, 7 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Kelly Goldsmith requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kelly Goldsmith (2nd nomination). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

@Noidaabc: Hi, there. I've contested the nomination as the criteria you used doesn't align with the current state of the page. Can you please consider removing the tag so that the page can be fairly assessed rather than caught up in an outdated deletion discussion? Alternatively, explain why you think the current version of the page doesn't meet notability? Much appreciated. --Dnllnd (talk) 18:06, 10 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There's a lot on her online, so I may end up adding something. She also has a somewhat active Twitter account, so I think that would be worth adding to an "External links" section. If I have some time, I'll try to add in a little more. Cool that you work at University of Waterloo’s Special Collections & Archives (SCA) department! I currently work at the National Security Archive and I got my MLIS from University of Maryland about a year ago, specializing in Archives & Digital Curation, so its always great to see more archivists on here! I've done some editing on the Archival appraisal page in the past (which probably needs some work), and I have some notes here for an upcoming page I'm tentatively titling "Archivists in popular culture". I probably need to edit some more archives-related pages myself, as I've mainly been doing editing in other areas. So I just thought I'd say hello and thanks for your edits on Wikipedia.

@Historyday01: Hey! Thanks for the kind works - it's nice to meet you. :)

Nice to meet you too! --Historyday01 (talk) 23:12, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
