Artist bio declined due to sources

[edit]

Hello, I would like to create a Wikipedia page for the artist I work for Matteo Messervy. He is a well known contemporary artist, exposed in major galleries and museums as well as projects world wide with leading architects. I gave a link to the artist's website where there is a PRESS section, he has been featured in many major publications over the past years... I am not clear what you require me to add or verify so that I can have my submission accepted. If I know what you want I am almost sure I can provide the proof/validity. Could you please tell me what I need to do ? Thank you, Kknightly — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kknightly (talkcontribs) 08:57, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hiyas there Kknightly,
Every article needs to pass the notability criteria before it can be included on Wikipedia, and this notability should in turn be verifiable trough reliable sources. While the previous statement is entirely true, but i doubt it will help you any further without an explanation as to what it actually means. What the article lacks right now are references that can be used to verify individual sections of the article. Take, for example, the following line:
  • The Srizbi botnet is the world's largest or second-largest botnet.
Right now that is a valid claim to notability, but there is no indication who claimed that, or any indication if that is even true (i could equally write "Excirial is the world's largest or second-largest botnet", which would of course be nonsense). This is where references come in - references are web pages, newspaper articles, magazines or anything else considered reliable which state the same thing as written in the article. References themselves should be placed after the line they verify (This is also called "Inline citation"), and this reference should specifically link to a page where the information is contained. I see you mentioned that the website has a press section. This is often a good area to check for sources, but the actual reference should link the press article itself, rather then the press releases section.
For information on how references work, i would point to the beginners guide to referencing, or the shorter but more to-the-point page available here: User:Chzz/help/ref. These should get you started on the basics of referencing for your own article. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 10:53, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
