10:47:06, 28 September 2016 review of submission by Jonas96313[edit]

I need to find out why my article about a basketball player is getting declined. The reviewer said that i need some reliable sources, even though i had added them

Jonas96313 I'm afraid an interview of the subject and a Youtube video are nowhere near compliance with the standards for independent and reliable sources. Please read the guidelines at those two linked pages and also the Referencing for beginners guide. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 11:07, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So you are telling me if that player played for more than 10 clubs during his career, I need to go and find all the articles from those teams, to prove that he played for them? It is not a big problem, but i have never seen a wiki article about a basketball player where in the reference section there would be more than 5 references — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonas96313 (talkcontribs) 12:37, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Did he play for any of the leagues listed in the basketball notability guidelines as fully professional? If so, please indicate which league and provide a reliable source. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:24, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

13:49:13, 28 September 2016 review of submission by Vincent L Gilbert[edit]


Looking for clarification on why the page Vincent_L_Gilbert (Username Vincent L Gilbert) was declined. The reviewer suggested reviewing the "What Wikipedia is not" section which I have. I did notice that an advisement given to another user stated "Wait for someone else to create the article", I am assuming this is the reason. If this is the case, I am confused, the article here Wikipedia:An_article_about_yourself_isn't_necessarily_a_good_thing begins "Are you planning to write an article about yourself? Before you proceed" which is a strong indicator that the practice is allowed, of course lower down it does state "No auto biographies"...thus the confusion. I followed the COI policy very carefully, my page is factual and not biased. Certainly I am not the most notable musician to have been involved in the 80's metal explosion, but I am one of the few keyboardists, I am mentioned in multiple books recently published as well as films, and several of the people I am playing with at this time have Wikipedia pages. At one time I toured with what was at that time one of the biggest bands on the world. There is no self promotion, it is really simply a history. My page was annotated, far more than existing pages of individuals I know personally. So is it a matter of content editing, or am I not allowed to start a page?

Thanks in advance!
