Draft:Computer Education Leaders in San Mateo County

My submission was rejected because the reviewer thought we were not notable. Computer Education Leaders of San Mateo County is a consortium of computer science teachers in the county on the northern-most edge of Silicon Valley. Why are we not notable. Thanks.

Hi Brycemartens. The notability of a topic is evaluated on the basis of the extent of coverage of that topic in independent reliable sources. An independent source is one that has no personal stake or involvement in the topic. A journalist who is not involved in a story except in their capacity as a reporter, for example, is independent. A member of an organization is not an independent source about that organization. Unless there is significant coverage of an organization in multiple, arms length, reliable sources, Wikipedia should not have an article dedicated to the topic. Wikipedia is not for publicity, promotion, or public relations. You may wish to explore alternative outlets that have different inclusion criteria than Wikipedia. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:54, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
