Your submission at Articles for creation: Wiregrass Blues Festival (May 4)

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

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. 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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Wiregrass Blues Festival 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:Wiregrass Blues Festival, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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.

Not sure if this is independently notable from Wiregrass Blues Festival. There are many more results about the festival, while it appears the society is mainly known for operating the festival. (t · c) buidhe 01:42, 22 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Wiregrass Blues Society (July 23)

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

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

A complicated AfC submission with various issues such as advert (a little bit), tone as well as essay. Please read other similar articles on Wikipedia as well as WP:EPSTYLE and address the issues accordingly.

Speedy deletion nomination of Jay scott

Hello HollyBells,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Jay scott for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

I apologize - it seems I had a bit of an itchy trigger finger with flagging this for deletion. A second look at the source and I found that it was indeed CC BY 4.0 licensed, so it is okay that it was copied to Wikipedia. I have therefore removed the deletion tag from the article.
