Your submission at Articles for creation: Louis Wright (November 19)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Calliopejen1 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 and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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:Louis Wright 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:Louis Wright, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

== Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Draft:Louis Wright a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Louis Wright (Digital Operator). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Louis Wright (Digital Operator)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Louis Wright (Digital Operator), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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.

The "speedy deletion" template has been removed. However, it is likely that it will be nominated for deletion in the next few days if the issues raised on the talk page aren't addressed. If it is nominated for deletion, there will be a week-long discussion period. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 18:33, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Louis Wright

This page will automatically be replaced with a WP:REDIRECT as part of the WP:History merge which I requested on Louis Wright (Digital Operator).

A history merge is the most straightforward way to comply with Wikipedia's legal WP:Attribution requirement. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 18:32, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Correction, the administrator doing the history merge chose not to leave a redirect behind. You can find the page with the merged history at Louis Wright (digital operator). davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 22:19, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please be careful not to remove or change maintenance templates without saying why

In this edit you made some content changes, but you also removed some technical instructions that I added to the {{history merge}} template. Those instructions, along with the rest of the template, will be removed by an administrator once he merges the "page history" of the draft-article page into the "page history" of the article page. I have restored the instructions and tweaked the wording. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 🎄 19:08, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
