ArbCom elections are now open![edit]

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Claudia Reh moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Claudia Reh, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The current sourcing does not support notability of this person at this time. What is needed: verifiable, in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources that are fully independent of the person. Netherzone (talk) 16:11, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Now enough sources and references in the article? --Schwijker (talk) 19:10, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Thank you for your response, but it seems that you do not at this time understand what is considered a reliable source for the encyclopedia. Reliable sources are things like secondary sources such as newspaper articles (not press releases, but articles or reviews with a byline and content not based on a press release); magazine articles or reviews (for example in ARTFORUM magazine, Frieze, etc.) or articles in academic journals that are fully vetted and peer-reviewed; chapters in books from notable publishers. Unfortunately none of the citations you added in good faith to the article are considered reliable sources per Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. What are needed are secondary sources that are in-depth, significant coverage in reliable published sources that are fully independent of the person. Below is an analysis of why the current sourcing does not meet WP guidelines:

Not independent: Calendar listing for an event [1]
Not a reliable source: Blog [2]
Not independent: Press release, not an independent article or review about her or her work [3]
Not independent: Calendar listing [4]
Not independent: Festival route map [5]
Not independent: Festival route map [6]
Not independent: Press release [7]
Not independent: Festival bio paragraph [8]
Not independent: Festival participant page [9]
Not independent: User-submitted material, artist’s self-published video [10]
Not independent: User-submitted material, artist’s self-published video [11]
Unreliable source: YouTube is not considered a reliable source and it’s a user-submitted entry [12]
Unreliable source: User submitted content: [13]
Flicker with pictures on it is not a reference [14]
Not independent: User submitted content bio [15]

Here are some links that may be helpful to you as you search for independent significant coverage in reliable sources: WP:N, WP:RS, WP:SIGCOV. What is of critical importance are sources (references) that are high quality, the number of sources is not as important - quality, not quantity is key. Hope that helps! Netherzone (talk) 23:44, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ok, got it. More and more articles in newspapers are behind pay walls. Can they be used anyway? Schwijker (talk)

What is of key importance is verifiability that editors/reviewers can actually read the content in references to check against the content in articles and drafts - this is for accuracy and neutrality. Guidelines are spelled out in the wikilinks in the first message above: WP:RS, WP:IS, WP:42, (WP:V, WP:5. I removed the calendar listing. It seems that one of the remaining refs is a blogger site, these seldom have editorial boards. I encourage you to continue to try to improve the draft and please have patience. It can take a while for drafts to be reviewed. Best regards, Netherzone (talk) 22:40, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

AfC notification: Draft:Claudia Reh has a new comment[edit]

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Claudia Reh. Thanks! Greenman (talk) 06:46, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is personal homepage of the artist reliable enough for that kind of information? --Schwijker (talk)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Claudia Reh (July 21)[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 Paper9oll 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.

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:Claudia Reh 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.
