Your submission at Articles for creation: Hotcakes & Outtakes (Little Feat album) (August 22)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Dan arndt were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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 music-related topics). 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:

Fails WP:NALBUM - Discogs is not a reliable or acceptable source.

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 Draft:Hotcakes & Outtakes (Little Feat album) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

WHAT does " about a musician or musical work not yet shown to meet notability guidelines" Are you saying that Little Feat is NOT KNOWN, or known well enough??

We can't use verified info from Discogs that correlates with actual album boxset book? It is not considered a reliable source?

So we need to find an article or book written about the album, and NOT USE the album or album book itself?

We can't take info directly from a famous album that is 25 years old and transcribe info from album book to Wikipedia notating THAT artist/album/release date?

THANKS for your time. I just don't want to go through this again IF it is of no use. Rklund (talk) 20:36, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It Looks like all the work I did (the page) has been deleted.

- Is their anyway I can see it, so that I can copy the data for my persnal use?

WAS working on an article. Rejected because 'Little Feat' is NOT KNOWN well enough to be in Wikipedia - I guess. Discogs can not be used as source even though better correct data can be found on Discogs than Allmusic. ALL MUSIC is often WRONG.

1) SO, WHAT happened to the DRAFT?

2) WHY can't I access it 2 days after submission?

It was rejected. Thought they could be accessed for 6months?

3) Id like to access the outline and data that I had submitted on the page.

Maybe I will stumble on some link that will automagically get the work back. Rklund (talk) 02:15, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@331dot, why did you G7 this draft? I don't see anything to suggest it was self-requested. Izno (talk) 02:38, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Izno I've already restored it, I saw this comment that I assumed was made by the user logged out which said "you can delete this whenever you choose". 331dot (talk) 08:41, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@331dot, yup, I'd have deleted G7 too. Rklund, don't jerk us around in the future. Izno (talk) 15:28, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Izno No problem. Happy to answer questions about my actions. 331dot (talk) 15:42, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What did I do to be called A JERK?

Thanks for answering the questions I had about why it was unacceptable and deleted.
