August 2017

Hello, I'm 331dot. I noticed that you made a change to an article, MyLifeAsHarrison, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please note that IMDB is not considered a reliable source, as it is user-editable. If you have any non-user editable sources like news stories or reviews, please offer them. 331dot (talk) 22:26, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (August 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by KGirlTrucker81 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.

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 User:Harryjamesfan123/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

References vs. wikilinks

I noticed in MyLifeAsHarrison, there were a bunch of things that looked like this:

People termed him as Instagram's^[1] Rising Star.

^ Instagram

I suspect that what you wanted was not a footnote saying "Instagram", but rather a link to the Wikipedia page Instagram. The way you would do that would be to put the word in [[double brackets]] (known as a "wikilink"), like this:

[[Instagram]]

displays as:

Instagram

Please use the <ref> ... </ref> format for things that actually should be footnotes, such as citations to sources that help prove the statements in the article are correct. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 17:12, 27 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion pages. Doing so won't stop the discussion from taking place. You are, however, welcome to comment about the proposed deletion on the appropriate page. Thank you. 2601:188:180:11F0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 14:41, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My experience here is that when an account resorts to removing the AfD template, they've conceded that the article is indeed flimsy. 2601:188:180:11F0:65F5:930C:B0B2:CD63 (talk) 14:41, 2 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
