Your submission at Articles for creation: Gerhard Gerlich (October 5)[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 is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Likely notable as an elected state-level legislator, but that claim needs to be supported by a reliable source. Also, too much of the other content is unreferenced, eg. the 'Education' and 'Family' sections don't have a single citation — where is that information coming from?

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:Gerhard Gerlich and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

I basically just tried to do my best to make a translation of the German page for Gerhard Gerlich with some reorganizations to make it more readable and logical. I can take the time to add these in where necessary, though. Jazzertyy (talk) 15:45, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, yes I assumed it was a translation from de.wiki; please see my additional comments in the draft.

It can be tricky translating from other language versions into en.wiki, because the referencing and notability requirements are stricter here than in any other language version (that I'm familiar with, at least). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:47, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, didn't see those, I'll consult them going forward. Thank you for taking the time to look at this all and help, I'm still incredibly new to this. Jazzertyy (talk) 15:50, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
