Your submission at Articles for creation: Overleaf (March 6)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiAviator 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:

The draft heavily relies on a single source (overleaf). Also, vimeo and reddit are user-generated content, which could not establish notability.

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:Overleaf 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:Overleaf, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, 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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Overleaf (March 9)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by JavaHurricane were:

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. 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.

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:

Please expand the article and provide more sources to establish notability

I really do not understand. You are asking me to provide more sources on an article that already has 66 references! I don't know what more I can do to fulfil your requirements. I have cited an official page from the UK government to prove when the company was launched. I have cited the original statements from the partners of Overleaf, including some of the top universities in the world. Please let me know specifically which statement is not properly supported in this article?

I understand that some of the sources used in the draft page for Overleaf are coming directly from the Overleaf website. But every single claim in the draft is supported by several independent sources, always including reliable sources. So as long as the information is confirmed by independent sources, I do not see why it is not allowed to cite the Overleaf website.

If you look at all the other companies listed on the Comparison of TeX editors, they barely have one reference, if not zero outside from their own website. If you want to be fair on this, please remove all these pages from Wikipedia. I do not see why those pages meet better the requirements for publication than the extensive collection of information I have provided here. Please let me know how I can this page published finally. I have already spent several days on it, and I do not see any way to fulfil you requirements.
