Template:WelcomeGNG
Discussion concerning the article you created[edit]
Hi WelcomeGNG. Welcome to Wikipedia! I'm ExampleUser, an editor just like you. Thank you for your contributions to the article you created. We'd really love to expand our coverage of important topics, so your help is really appreciated! However, on Wikipedia, we have certain guidelines to determine what is appropriate to cover. A big part of that is determining if a subject is talked about a lot in reliable sources. You can read WP:GNG to find out more. In the case of the article you created, it doesn't appear there is a lot of coverage in those types of sources, so I'm not sure if this article meets our guidelines. I've started a discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ , so other editors can look it over and see what they think. You're welcome to contribute to that discussion too! If the article you created isn't notable enough now, that's okay. As soon as there is enough coverage in reliable sources, we can create the article again. In the meantime, there are plenty of other articles in the same topic that need improvement! Let me know if you have any questions, or if I can help in any way. Thank you! ~~~~
