Your submission at Articles for creation: Robert Spekkens (April 9)[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 DoubleGrazing 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 for academics). 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:

Does not demonstrate notability per WP:GNG since the sources cited are works authored by the subject, plus two primary sources. If WP:NACADEMIC notability is instead being asserted, please specify clearly which of the criteria 1-8 in that guideline is satisfied, and what evidence supports this assertion. Thank you, --
