Your submission at Articles for creation: Julie Bourdon (February 25)[edit]

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

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and 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:

Please note that mayors are not considered "inherently" notable enough for Wikipedia articles. To make a mayor notable enough for inclusion here, it is not sufficient to just offer minimal verification that she exists -- rather, you have to be able to write a substantial article about her political impact (specific things she did as mayor, specific projects she spearheaded as mayor, specific effects her mayoralty had on the development of the city, and on and so forth), referenced to a significant volume of third-party reliable source coverage about her in the media.
But four of the six footnotes here are primary sources that are not support for notability at all, and the two that come from the media just verify her initial election and don't add up to enough coverage to surpass what's actually required.

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.
