Your submission at Articles for creation: Katy Derbyshire (February 28)

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

The content of this submission includes material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations. Please cite your sources using footnotes. For instructions on how to do this, please see Referencing for beginners. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft is good - the subject is clearly notable, and you have a lot of sources already. The only thing which is not sourced is the sentence where you say which authors she has translated - there are no sources for any of that. Since we are making statements about living people, we need to ensure that anything we say about them is verifiable - if you can add sources to that sentence to demonstrate that she has indeed translated those authors, I believe this would be good to go.

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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Most of this is good - the subject appears to be notable, but we'd need better sourcing for the biographical details - Wikipedia pages aren't considered reliable (see WP:RS, specifically WP:UGC). The German article might have some sources that you could use to expand this and source it reliably. Also, note that we have an article on the German Book Prize - you could include a wikilink to that article. Cheers

Your submission at Articles for creation: Peter Richter (May 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Kvng 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 (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 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:

Cited sources are mostly book reviews with some incidental coverage of the author. [1] appears to be the best source about the author but it is not clearly WP:RELIABLE. Couldn't find better sourcing in the German version.

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:Peter Richter 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:Peter Richter, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" 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.
