Your submission at Articles for creation: Lin Chambers (May 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 Sulfurboy 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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

We need to see WP:SIGCOV of the subject, not just coverage of the projects they have been involved with. This person currently doesn't meet WP:NPROF so they will need to pass WP:GNG

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:Lin Chambers 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:Lin Chambers, 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, 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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Padlet

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Padlet, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 04:43, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to see you having to deal with this. Seems some people think it's OK to try to delete a person's work just because it relates to a business. I failed and gave up, and I appreciate you building a new page. If I can help let me know.Oblivy (talk) 05:08, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Oblivy! I had seen that you had written a page that got deleted, so I'm hoping that we can avoid a repeat of that this time around. Seems like a pretty straightforward overreach of admin powers. Thanks for your support! Lamacha9617 (talk)

Hi. I see you moved the page out of draft space without getting a review. That's not advisable and the result was that it got tagged for deletion. It's now at Draft:Padlet for you to work on. Deb (talk) 15:53, 5 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Deb - I'm a bit confused. I closely read Wikipedia:So you made a userspace draft before moving this article to mainspace and it says: "Once you feel the draft is completed, you may wish to ask for feedback on your creation first at Wikipedia:Peer review. If you are ready to go live, you can move it to mainspace." This seems to say that autoconfirmed users do not have to go through the peer review/AfC process before moving a draft to article space. If that is not true, then perhaps that page should be changed to be clearer. Do you have any comments on the content of the Padlet page that would deem it inappropriate to live in article space, or is your concern solely with the method of publishing? Lamacha9617 (talk)

Hi. A user only needs ten edits to be autoconfirmed, which is practically nothing, and new users are always advised to practise with small edits before trying to create a new article. It seems like you created this in your sandbox instead of at AfC, which had used previously, but you have fewer than 100 edits altogether, which is very few. Had you had more experience, the fact that an article on Padlet had been previously deleted would have rung alarm bells. So yes, you can move it to article space without review - you have the ability to do so - but that doesn't make it a sensible thing for an inexperienced user to do. Frankly, I'm not even convinced that Padlet meets the notability criteria, which is why I'm not deleting it as advertising but am leaving it to you to submit it for review to uninvolved contributors if you so wish. If you don't want to, by all means move it back into article space yourself and see how things pan out. Deb (talk) 18:55, 5 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking the time to elaborate on this. Though it's a bit frustrating that edit count is used so heavily as a proxy for quality, it's helpful to know that's the way the cookie crumbles. The case for notability seems pretty clear to me, but I'll submit for peer review and see what happens. Lamacha9617 (talk) 19:22, 5 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Padlet Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

Wikidata duplicate

I see you created Q103832703 (which is a duplicate entry of Q102253002 for Peter Atherton). I recommend they be merged but don’t know how. Thanks in advance Adin-Atherton (talk) 14:25, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Adin-Atherton - Huh. I'm afraid I'm not sure how to merge entries on Wikidata either. I see there is a proposed help page on the topic but I'm a bit intimidated by the process. I didn't make Q103832703, I was just the most recent person to edit it - it looks like the duplicate entry was originally created by Pi bot which is run by Mike Peel - maybe they can help with the duplicate? Lamacha9617 (talk) 15:18, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Adin-Atherton and Lamacha9617: Thanks for spotting the duplicates - I've merged them into Col. Peter Atherton (Q102253002). If you come across this again, I suggest turning on the 'Merge' gadget in your Wikidata preferences. It's quick and easy to use that, and it will let you know if it spots any issues before trying to do the merge. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 15:43, 8 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jennah Bell moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Jennah Bell, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. PRAXIDICAE💕 19:09, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Praxidicae - thank you for this message. As I just published the article under an hour ago, I am still actively editting and in the process of adding more sources. Is there a way I can signal this in the future to prevent articles from being moved to draftspace prematurely? Lamacha9617 (talk) 19:11, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You could work on it and source it while it's in draft space before moving it to article space. PRAXIDICAE💕 19:12, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
