Your submission at Articles for creation: Barbara Waxman (November 27)

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Nothing at all close for establishing notability and here's why: (1) the sources are all trivial and unconvincing because they are either things authored by her and even authored-published at her own website therefore unacceptable and not independent, (2) I'm seeing she's not notable as an author because she's apparently not held in libraries and that itself would've helped for notability and (3) everything listed is literally something only suitable for her own personal website, because it's simply advertising her, hence it's not an acceptable article. There's also no automatic notability from any publication that spoke about her or interviewed as that alone is not what gets an article accepted.

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:Barbara Waxman and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Barbara Waxman (January 12)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Also relies very heavily on primary sources. Please read WP:42 and WP:SOAPBOX

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.
