Your submission at Articles for creation: Flying Canoe Hard Cider (October 13)[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 Timothyjosephwood was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

One source is to the official webpage. One source is to an individual's Facebook profile. Of the remaining, only one actually mentions the company. This does not constitute the substantial coverage in reliable third party sources needed to establish notability.

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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Flying Canoe Hard Cider (April 2)[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 Bearcat was:

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I've had to strip a number of citations from this article, as either entirely irrelevant to the topic (the general resurgence in the popularity of cider is not, in and of itself, assisting the notability of this brand of cider) or entirely unacceptable (Wikipedia articles cannot be cited as "references" within other Wikipedia articles). Which left this with just four citations, of which one is the company's own webpage about itself and another is a general history of apple-growing in Ontario which fails to name this company at all.

The Ottawa Citizen and Ottawa Magazine citations are a step in the right direction, but they're not enough by themselves; per WP:CORPDEPTH, a company's sourceability has to expand beyond just their local media before they're eligible for a Wikipedia article.

Creator is also advised to familiarize himself with our conflict of interest rules; the path to getting your company into Wikipedia does not normally include writing and submitting the article yourself. That wouldn't be fatal in and of itself, if the sourceability were at the level where it needs to be, but it's important to understand that Wikipedia is not, and is not meant to be, a free advertising platform for new businesses to promote themselves.

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.
