Your submission at Articles for creation: Cher Scarlett (June 21)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Curbon7 were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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:

Twitter and LinkedIn are not valid sources.

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:Cher Scarlett 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:Cher Scarlett, 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.

Hello, Lowkeyorca! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Curbon7 (talk) 00:56, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome!

Hello, Lowkeyorca, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.

I noticed that one of the first articles you edited appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.

To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.

One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)

In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.

GorillaWarfare we are not allowed to edit articles for people we follow on social media? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lowkeyorca (talk • contribs) 01:05, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are not allowed to use multiple accounts in violation of our sockpuppetry policy. Your edits, which appeared to be solely focused on inserting mentions of a singular individual even when not supported by sourcing, were also inappropriate.

GorillaWarfare ok dude I didn't add her to the don't repeat yourself article, the person who added that section did and it annoyed me that it was removed and when I looked into it, they removed every other reference of her too when I worked pretty hard on researching all of that stuff about her and it doesn't feel good to have hours of my time deleted because I couldn't remember my password and made a new account I didn't even know that wasn't ok. I was really mean to her in the past and just wanted to do something good for her and never had an issue with my anonymous edits in the past, and now it seems like I ruined the only valid mention of her on wikipedia because you all think i did this to be abusive to her — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lowkeyorca (talk • contribs) 01:52, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not the place to try to make amends. If you are trying to do so, I would strongly recommend not spending hours digging into what she has shared about her very personal history and compiling it on a very public site. It quite frankly appears like a stalking campaign.

As for the claim that you were not the person who inserted the original mention into the article about DRY, that is frankly not believable. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 02:06, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
