Your submission at Articles for creation: 304th Military Intelligence Battalion (United States) (September 26)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

The copyright issues are solved; all copying in this are from PD sources. However, I'm not seeing significant coverage of this battalion by multiple reliable sources that are independent of the U.S. military being cited here, nor can I find them with an online search. See WP:GNG for more information on what sort of coverage is being looked for.

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.

Red-tailed hawk, why would you consider the sources within the U.S. military not reliable. As a scholar and historian, we consider direct sources as the best reliable sources. Secondary sources can be unreliable about a subject, as these are based on the opinion of the author with no direct knowledge of the subject. I’ve reviewed and seen several military organizations within Wikipedia’s database that only use military sources. I am not here to provide a false article about an existing military organization. The manner of this rejection of our contribution feels like an insult to the U.S. Armed Forces, the 304th Military Intelligence Battalion, and soldiers that served with the organization to have their history rejected by a public encyclopedia.

I provided additional sources, and would like to continue working with the Wikipedia team to contribute the historic lineage of the unit. Thank you for your time. ForgingLeaders304 (talk) 19:50, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: 304th Military Intelligence Battalion (United States) (January 8)

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

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.

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Number of sections remain unsourced.
