Your submission at Articles for creation: Micheal Nourot (Artist) (January 9)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Zawl 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 guidelines on the notability of people, 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:

Does not appear to meet the WP:ARTIST criteria. The source does not mention that Nourot helped establish Benicia as a center of glass art in California.

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.

[1] is the best reference. Others are not WP:INDEPENDENT. We need to see multiple independent sources to establish notability.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Since the last time this was declined, three sources were added. IMDB is not a WP:RS. The Corning Museum source isn't even a real reference; it's a link to a search page. The NYTimes source is just a name-drop; all it says is, Artists in the exhibition include Dale Chihuly, James Carpenter, Micheal Nourot, Benjamin Moore and Tina Aufiero. Please see WP:ARTIST for what we need in the way of sourcing.

Hi Roy--since I realy do believe that the glass artist Micheal Nourot has sufficient significance to warrant a Wikipedia entry, I am checking in regarding one comment you made above in particular: "The Corning Museum source isn't even a real reference; it's a link to a search page"--when in fact it's a link to an executed search resulting in multiple references to holdings in the museum, as well as interviews and other materials in the Corning Museum relating to Nourot. Would it be better to link to multiple specific results rather than to the entire results page? Thanks. Ddodd (talk) 23:04, 9 May 2018 (UTC)ddodd (David Dodd)[reply]
