Submission declined on 3 June 2023 by Raydann (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. Declined by Raydann 14 months ago. | ![]() |

Comment: Well done on creating the draft, and it may potentially meet the relevant requirements (including WP:GNG, WP:NCORP) but presently does not. As other reviewers have noted, Wikipedia's basic requirement for entry is that the subject is notable. Essentially subjects are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. To properly create such a draft page, please see referencing for beginners or the article Easier Referencing for Beginners. Please note that the references are not formatted correctly (see Wikipedia’s Manual of Style for help). Also, if you have any connection to the subject, including being paid, you have a conflict of interest that you must declare on your Talk page (to see instructions on how to do this please click the link). Please familiarise yourself with these pages before amending the draft. If you feel you can meet these requirements then resubmit the page and leave a note for me on my talk page and I would be happy to reassess. Cabrils (talk) 02:22, 16 August 2023 (UTC)

History

Shoah Atlas
[edit]The Shoah Atlas-Ukraine Project (2016-present)
Commenced in 2016, the Shoah Atlas aims to create profiles of individual Holocaust killing sites for all regions of Ukraine, present essential information about the Jewish communities in Ukraine destroyed during the Holocaust, and to feature maps equipped with an interactive timeline of the mass killings.
Shoah Atlas-Ukraine is meant to be an interactive educational, research, and reference tool that allows students and scholars alike to learn about the destruction of Jewish communities during the Holocaust. The Shoah Atlas seeks to document many unknown and less researched places in Ukraine, where some 1.5 million Jews were murdered by Nazis and local collaborators as part of the Holocaust.
The Shoah Atlas features profile pages for individual killing sites that present historical data about the Holocaust event at that site, including a summary, photos, and links to comprehensive sources; Jewish community history pages that provide links to information on the history of the local Jewish community, descriptions of Holocaust events in the local Jewish community, victims’ names, survivors’ memoirs, witness testimony, as well as documentary films; and overviews of Holocaust events in each Ukrainian region; a search engine that facilitates easy access to each killing site location, as well as the site’s profile pages.
As of March 2023, TKF completed research in fourteen Ukrainian regions, creating profile pages for some 1200 killing sites and 350 former Jewish communities as of February 2023. In the process, their researchers uncovered over 250 killing sites that had been missed by well-known published sources.
