Your submission at Articles for creation: Raise Marketplace (May 14)

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

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.

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:Raise Marketplace and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Raise Marketplace (July 9)

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

I did a lot of cleanup but it needs more. Only wikilink when users are likely to need more information (not "cash" or "startup" or common terms). Only wikilink a term once in the article. Only wikilink when the wiki article is the same as what you are discussing - do not create WP:EASTEREGGs. We don't usually list officers since those can change fairly frequently and they usually do not aid notability of the company.

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.

Could you be more specific to why the references from major national and Chicago media outlets that I have sourced do not adequately show the subjects notability? Especially given the massive attention digital/mobile payment has received in recent years (every Apple keynote and Android conference for the past 4 years). Your feedback appears to be highly subjective and vague. Please provide further assistance.

Thank you! Bill M at Raise (talk) 21:26, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

~== Your submission at Articles for creation: Raise Marketplace (July 14) ==

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), 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:

More references are needed to establish notability of the subject involved and verify the claims made in this article.

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.
