Sources

Hey,

My name is HickoryOughtShirt?4 and I am an WP:Admin on Wikipedia. I noticed your edits on BCG and unfortunately, I have reverted them. All the sources were linked to the companies own website and came across as quite spammy. To be frank, Wiki doesn't care that BCG thinks they "fosters a collaborative culture and offers career flexibility and global mobility." We care what third party sources think of them.

@HickoryOughtShirt?4: Sorry, just saw your message! Didn't know about this talk function. I completely agree and am laughing at how propagandist it looked. I've changed it a bit - let me know what you think.

Looks a lot better, thanks! Also, pings only work if you add four ~ at the end. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 20:21, 6 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kevin George (September 11)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Praxidicae 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 appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Kevin George 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:Kevin George, 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 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, 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.
