14:35:03, 28 July 2017 review of submission by Koreaforeign[edit]


Hello, I`m the chairman and the principal of the Korea Foreign School in Seoul. Name of Rainbow International School, Seoul changed to Korea Foreign School on June 28, 2017. So I try to make a new Korea Foreign School page in wikipedia and connect it Korea Foreign School`s Google Plus Page. Can you please help me?

@Koreaforeign: Hello, Mr. Principal. Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. Our apologies for the great delay in response. I see that, since your posting here, your submission has been declined a second time, this time for not establishing the encyclopedic notability of your school. I regret to say that I share that assessment. Your submission contains nothing that can't be found on your school's web site (except for the listing of after-school activities). Such submissions tend to be viewed here on Wikipedia as mere extensions of the school's web site and, as such, are viewed as "promotional" or as "advertising". But regardless of "promotionalism", there remains the fact that you have not demonstrated that the world at-large has taken notice of your school, as might be evidenced by in-depth coverage of the school by reliable third-party sources. And without that evidence, it is unlikely that your submission will be accepted for publication. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. NewYorkActuary (talk) 20:05, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
