Help me![edit]

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Please help me with... BLPs:

Hi folks, I'm planning on writing my first Wikipedia article soon, about a living person. I've read the pages on BLPs, notability, basics on writing articles, and more. I am confident that this subject meets the criteria for notability, even if they aren't a hugely well-known figure. However, the subject is also my father, which I know can complicate things. My first question is, what is the best way to disclose my relationship to the article subject for full transparency?

Although I feel like understand Wikipedia's policies well, and am confident in my ability and intention to write an unbiased article, I am concerned that once I am ready to publish, that it could be removed (or parts of it removed) without consultation. If anything is not relevant or violates Wikipedia's policies and standards in any way, I want to know about it so that I can improve the article. In other words, I want to know that there will be a feedback loop with the mutual goal of eventually producing a solid article that will remain published. I want to know what's wrong so that I can fix and improve it.

Do any users or admin have any advice for me? Any advice about my questions above or about writing BLPs is appreciated. Thanks!! Shay6485 (talk) 18:18, 12 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WP:YFA is a good place to start, as is WP:PSCOI. I highly suggest you use the Article wizard to write your draft, as it will be reviewed by experienced editors after submission. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Brad Upton (comedian) (May 25)[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 Kaleeb18 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.

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:Brad Upton (comedian) 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:Brad Upton (comedian), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" 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 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.
