Your submission at Articles for creation: Joan Gibbs (March 28)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by The Herald were:

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.

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Joan Gibbs and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 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.

AfC notification: Draft:Joan Gibbs has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Joan Gibbs. Thanks! 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 20:11, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I deleted the YouTube link from the lead. A New York Times article on a case she argued quotes her as "lead counsel" but is not exclusively "about her": https://www.nytimes.com/1987/12/19/nyregion/police-admit-surveillance-violated-pact.html Is this adequate as a secondary source? Thanks, Elise Elise9876 (talk) 20:40, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It can verify a simple fact of her being the lead counsel, but has no value in verifying notability 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 21:34, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
