Swocker1. I've had a look at your draft, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Hampstead Village Voice, which was rejected yesterday. I've done some pretty major copy-editing to a part of it and added four references. I've left further detailed guidance at the top of the draft, primarily for you, but also for future reviewers. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 15:30, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There's no context on the article itself, and no sources whatsoever. It won't get accepted. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:33, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Madam/Sir,

I received a message directing me to this page in order to ask why my recent article has been rejected. Please let me know so that I can correct any deficiency.

We don't accept primary sources (i.e. sources tied to the subject) as the only sources in an article, especially not a biography of a living person. You need to find multiple third-party sources with editorial oversight and no tie to the subject to prove the subject's notability. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 20:47, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
