Your submission at Articles for creation: Chris Oliver (coach) (April 20)

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

The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.

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 for sports persons and athletes). 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.

SlamWrestling.net

Hi,

In June 2020, SlamWrestling.net was started, and all the references to the old SLAM! Wrestling website at either www.canoe.ca or www.canoe.com became broken links

If you type this into the Wiki search:

"canadian online explorer" wrestling

you will quickly realize that we are talking thousands of references.

Many of the stories were NOT ported over to the new website, but many were.

I have done a few by hand, but have come to the conclusion that it's almost impossible to do by oneself and that it is a much bigger job given all the broken links.

Is there someone who might have an idea how to approach this?

Thank you.
