Your submission at Articles for creation: North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences, Humanities and the Arts (January 17)

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

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 brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Primary sources do not establish notability per WP:ORG.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:North Rhine-Westphalian Academy of Sciences, Humanities and the Arts and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 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

Hello, how are you? What should you pay more attention to when editing and creating an article for the English Wikipedia? We also hope that English Wikipedia will be the largest source of information in the world? Thank you. Happy editing! (VVWiki8 (talk) 12:29, 25 January 2025 (UTC))[reply]

Some advice I was given on a previous draft of GdiG

Just in case these help! (Also, look at WP:AUTHOR in addition to WP:PROF. People in the humanities often pass by the former more easily than the latter.) Cheers –

I'm confused about what kind of additional sources are needed, however. It's a stub that only makes three claims. The first two are supported by citations, second of which is a scholarly Dictionary of Hegelian Thought (in which GdiG was deemed important enough to be given his own entry). The third claim is supported by the titles of his works, the list of which are taken from his CV, which is linked below and can easily be independently verified.

Sorry if the answers to this are obvious, btw. This is only the second article I created from scratch.

The core question at AfC is "would it survive a deletion discussion?" and my current thinking is that it probably wouldn't. The key policy is WP:PROF and it is not clear that they meet it from the article and references. For example did they hold a named chair? Are they elected fellow of a learned society, etc.? Has their research made and impact? Here are a few things to help you get it over the line:

You would probably be able to find additional reviews of their works which is one way of showing impact.

Hi @Patrick Welsh, Thanks for your suggestions. Is there a way to access the interview you provided? It seems to require some form of institutional access. Xpander (talk) 18:38, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, that's odd. I'd assumed it was for some kind of promotional alumni publication or something. You could try the Wayback Machine. Otherwise I'm not sure what to tell you. (Also, an interview with the subject by his lifelong institutional home is of rather limited use as a source for Wikipedia purposes.)

In all events, best wishes with the draft! There are a few places he's cited with attribution on the Hegel page, and it would be nice to have at least a stub to wikilink. Cheers, Patrick (talk) 18:53, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
