Your submission at Articles for creation: Gorilla channel (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 SeraphWiki 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.

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:Gorilla channel 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:Gorilla channel, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and save.

The way forward

I suggest you keep developing your short article, but don't try to include it anywhere yet. It's currently a stub, and may remain that way. Who knows? Keep finding RS to use, format all the refs properly, and develop more. Give it some time to see if this is a minor blip of attention, or if it gets more coverage. It is indeed humorous, and some articles, such as Vox, describe how the current climate in the WH and Trump's notorious behavior and habits, make it easier for people to believe such a story. That should be included. I don't know if Poe's law is mentioned in this connection in any RS, but if so, that mention should be included.

There are already enough RS to potentially qualify this as an article, but some editors may not think so, so keep finding more. The problem is that it may be so temporary that it's discarded as a violation WP:NOTNEWS. There is no rush, so just keep working. Feel free to contact me for advice. This is a good way to learn how to create articles. Have fun and go for it. -- BullRangifer (talk) 15:50, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
