Footnoting comment for future reference[edit]

Do not footnote to other Wikipedia articles, simply wikilink them (fixed that for you). Also, don't footnote to his the subject's books (unless you're literally citing a fact about himself he reveals in said book). Otherwise simply list books/albums under "Works" but do not footnote to them.

Overall, nice work. I've admired Power's work, so it's good we have him covered now. I would encourage you to keep your eye open for any further news media or mentions of him in published books that you can add as footnotes to strenghten the article and give more of his history. Every so often more and more materials pop up online, so it's worth revisiting the article from time to time to see if new sources have arisen online which can help reinforce it.

Your submission at Articles for creation: David Ellis (Biographical Writer) (June 14)[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 TYelliot was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Does not meet WP:AUTHOR guidelines, in that there are insufficient independent reviews of him or his works.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:David Ellis (Biographical Writer) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:David Ellis (Biographical Writer), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.
You can also use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
