SLHS-SLEHS Rivalry moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, SLHS-SLEHS Rivalry, is not suitable as written to remain published. An article needs more information and citations from reliable, independent sources to remain in the mainspace. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline, has suitable content and thus is ready for mainspace, click the Submit the draft for review! button atop the article.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lakes Valley Conference (April 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 Qcne was:

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 passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet 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.

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:HisConn/Lakes Valley Conference and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 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.

September 2024

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Michigan State Fair, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 02:38, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Remember that we cannot draw conclusions. Witnesses stating they heard gunshots does not mean there was a shooting; it means they heard (what they thought were) gunshots. —C.Fred (talk) 02:48, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was about to add that the shooting is unconfirmed, but reports online (not by news outlets, from first hand sources) report a shooting. Its also reported someone is dead, but thats unconfirmed HisConn (talk) 02:49, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In other words, there are no reports from reliable sources that there was a shooting, so the article should not mention it. —C.Fred (talk) 03:06, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Would Scanner broadcasts count as reliable sources? Also, MDN (Metro Detroit News) posted about a shooting on Instagram. (https://www.instagram.com/p/C_W6-ogNQIH/) - Reports over scanner say the same thing about a victim in the fairgrounds parkinglot. HisConn (talk) 03:13, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If the scanner broadcasts are published and logged to where they can be verified after the fact, then they may be usable, but they're primary sources. TMDN...I can't find enough on them to make a clear call on whether they're reliable or not. However, in cases like this, we usually wait for multiple sources to report information, so that would include a major Detroit newspaper, metro Detroit TV station, or national or network news service. —C.Fred (talk) 03:17, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Copy that. Few other sources are reporting (MDM, Click On Detroit) police are reporting an incident... but nothing further. Clear something happened, but we don't know fully yet. Will continue to monitor. HisConn (talk) 03:23, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And in cases like this, we are generally the last to post about it, because we're an encyclopedia, not a newspaper. There's a point where we want to wait and get it right. And I was admin on the editing scene when the Gabby Giffords shooting happened, so I have a bit of experience with waiting for the full story to come in and for the media to get their stories consistent. —C.Fred (talk) 03:25, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Few updates, including a city spokesperson that confirmed the shooting.

Going to wait until 2 or 3 outlets confirm that the city spokesperson confirmed to update the page, as only WXYZ has reported that its confirmed. But considering the massive police response, SWAT, and road closures, and the fact there were 2 victims, it is heavily suggesting a shooting.
