Your submission at Articles for creation: Dan The Man (March 25)[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 Liance 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:

Only one source is independent and demonstrates significant coverage, consider citing more of the sources listed on Metacritic to meet WP:NGAME? YouTube is not a reliable source and should not be cited.

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:Dan The Man 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:Dan The Man, 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, 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.

Hello, G-Toasty! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! -Liance^{talk/contribs} 05:35, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Liance Okay. I can work with this, but on the topic of YouTube, those videos are official, and are where the developer primarily provides information about the story. G-Toasty (talk) 13:59, 25 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey G-Toasty. At first glance I would say that the subject you are writing is notable considering coverage on Metacritic, and it would be able to pass WP:NGAME so I encourage you to keep working on the draft. Just make sure to cite those sources to meet the notability criteria.

As for your question about YT videos, we tend to avoid citing YouTube as non-user generated sources are preferred but if the videos are reliable (in this case, published by the developer) then they are OK. Generally gameplay and plot summary does not need citations so long as they do not state any contentious material, but citing the videos is fine. Hope this helps. -Liance^{talk/contribs} 01:25, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Liance It very much does, thanks you so much G-Toasty (talk) 05:12, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Dan The Man (March 27)[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 Zxcvbnm was:

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The game is clearly notable, but the plot summary needs to be cut down a lot while the reception could stand to be expanded.

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.
