This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Hi! Thanks for your response. There are other journals with far less information, and this is the only journal in the world dedicated specifically to the academic scholarship of Africans on African languages and whose articles are double-blind peer-reviewed by Africanists. I can understand why I'm not impartial toward the subject, but it also seems hasty not to include this on Wikipedia. Tspier (talk) 17:09, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
