Thank you so much @Hoary, I have minimised some of the Exhibitions and Awards that I couldn't find any related information online. Thank you again for your time in reviewing my first Wikipedia creation. Hopefully more to come! Hongkongart (talk) 18:52, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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

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 after they have been resolved.

my apologise if the draft that I researched and wrote gave you that feeling of COI but I personally do not have connections with Howard, except I did ask for his consent for writing about him out of respect, met him a few times on exhibition openings and he did kindly offer helps on this if i ever need one, such as helped me found 1-2 refs, images copyright issues etc. most of the items that I have written could be found online, his sites, art archive organisations and news outlets.

May I know what could I do to avoid this impression? rewrite the draft? delete his websites? once again, I was hoping he is my first subject and many more to come to let people know more about Hong Kong art and artists. Thank you so much for your help and reviews! forgive my newbie’s stupidity 🙏🏻 many thanks! appreciated any advices and guidances 🙏🏻 Hongkongart (talk) 10:26, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
