Your submission at Articles for creation: Dirty Sound Magnet (December 26)[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 S0091 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 music-related topics). 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:Dirty Sound Magnet 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.

Hi Chunky, I wonder if you could help me. I’m struggling to figure out how to improve references. I got advice to use sources that have a Wikipedia page themselves where possible, as that would help with the ‘reliable, secondary sources’. I have found press coverage in national press and on national TV and radio. Switzerland is frustrating, as it is very de-centralised and speaks 4 different languages. Is there any advice you can offer me, or suggestions as to what would count as an adequate reference? TIA for any help you are able to give me. Best wishes Thorcouper (talk) 19:54, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Resubmit and I will accept it. There's enough to establish at least "borderline" notability. S0091 (talk) 20:06, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That’s great. Thank you for help and advice Thorcouper (talk) 22:55, 17 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep your eye out over the couple weeks or so because it will go through another review and that reviewer may disagree with my acceptance who may either send it back to draft or nominate if for deletion. I did find another Le Temps article here that is a review of III. You may be able to actually access the article and expand the draft with a summary of the review. I found it on Proquest but was unable to access it directly online. S0091 (talk) 16:08, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for your help. I will try to add more in. Thorcouper (talk) 16:18, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

FYI - it passed the second review. Granted articles can be nominated for deletion at any time but given at least a couple editors thought it met notability suggests that in unlikely to happen. S0091 (talk) 18:54, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Amazing! Thank you. I've added in more national TV stuff that I found, too. I really appreciate your patience and help. This has been fun. Thorcouper (talk) 18:59, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, S0091 (talk) 19:08, 19 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
