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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the general guideline on notability, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

We need more independent coverage of the subject sans interviews, paid-for-coverage and PR pieces.

Dear JCC,

First of all thank you so much for your feedback. But I am at a complete loss for now.

Let me start again by explaining as to why I've taken this long winded project on. So we are a bunch of expat Lebanese guys that are working on updating the - Companies of Lebanon - section which we believe is missing a lot of the "new" Lebanese companies. So there is not any conflict of interest as you are led to believe. And if you can take a moment and check the companies listed under the companies of Lebanon section, you can see that most listed ones have similar and even less references than what I currently included in the Transmed draft page submitted. To name a few: Bonjus, Gebran Geahchan & Sons, New Wave Productions, and many more.

And to confirm again, Lebanon is a very small country so whatever listings you might have and the notability standards that you might use a a benchmark, will not fit with any global standards, therefore can I please ask you to take this into consideration and check the current "Lebanon" related brands and businesses listings that are available on Wikipedia and compare my article to those!

In terms of the content that I have used on the page, I have adapted that to all the online articles that I have researched and found, so I guess you are telling me that I need to remove all that and have a simple stub page with a name listing?!

I really am at a loss here as this has been dragging on for too long. And just having a Lebanese company invest in a UK established business - the Quiqup story - is a source of pride for me and many of my countrymen. Therefore for me this is an article that I feel strongly about and will see through with your and the Wikipedia community help.

Again, thank you.

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

I’m a bit concerned that this company might not be notable enough to qualify for a Wikipedia article. That link goes to a guide, but basically any coverage of a company on here is supposed to be based on being covered in reliable sources, like newspapers, in the form of full articles and not just things like business listings. Evaluating the sources provided, they are basically reprinted press releases or venture funding reports. Unfortunately it could be that the coverage simply isn't there for this company at present. If you find this topic interesting, perhaps you might want to host this content on your own blog or website? Since the article reads like you might be marketing the company, you also should look at this, an automated text on editing if you have a conflict of interest. All the best, any questions just let me know and I'll try to help.
