hello. Hebb studios was a business run by my parents Ralph And Jean Walker in the 1940s in Brookvale Sydney Australia. I attempted to create an article (see above link) for wikki. which was rejected on the grounds of inadequate supporting references. - Fair enough. I am very new to all of this, thus, i am not familiar with the process of quoting a reference, nor what reference would qualify. I will attempt to compile some references in the next few days, and (if is ok with you) will ask for your assistance to quote them correctly.

Hello there Rohan,
For a source to qualify as a reliable source, it must meet 3 conditions:
  • The publisher of the source must be of sufficient size. This means that you can quote major newspapers, large websites or otherwise sizable publishing organisations. You can't quote a personal blog or a minor website with 10 readers a year (For example).
  • It can generally be trusted to tell the truth. Major newspapers and large websites tend to have quality control, but some sources such as some tabloids tend to be sensationalist over accurate, so those don't pass the criteria.
  • It is independent of the subject of the article. Simply put: The subject can't have a direct relation with the source itself. So nothing they wrote themselves, or someone close wrote for them. Also nothing that the subject paid for to get written.
Before anything else, make sure that the article can meet the above requirement for reliable sources. Reliable sources are used to establish notability, which is the basic inclusion criteria for Wikipedia. If an article cannot pass this criteria, it cannot be included under any circumstance (So before investing a lot of work in the article, make sure it can pass).
