dear Admin, kindly guide, with regard to the standard of an article to be published on Wikipedia. again the request has been denied by the wiki admins to publish the same referring to reliable & secondary sources constraints. please resolve the issue.
Warm Regards!

- This has been repeatedly declined, and eventually rejected, for lack of notability. Civil servants are not inherently notable, so they must establish notability by WP:GNG. Please study that guideline carefully, because it applies to the vast majority of articles on Wikipedia. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:03, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- The only way that he would meet GNG is if independent reliable sources report on his work and describe how he is important or influential to the work the government is doing. 331dot (talk) 08:39, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Good day,
can you explain what is wrong with my article "Kama.Sport". What do I need to change?
I took inspiration from Wyscout, because it is very similar to Kama.Sport.
Thank you for your time.

- LucreziaManenti First, if you work for this company, the Wikipedia Terms of Use require that to be formally disclosed, please read the paid editing policy(I've also placed information about this on your user talk page).
- Please understand that Wikipedia is not a place to merely tell about a company and its activities or what it considers to be its history. A Wikipedia article about a company must summarize what independent reliable sources with significant coverage have chosen on their own to say about the company, showing how it meets the special Wikipedia definition of a notable company. "Significant coverage" goes beyond the mere reporting of what the company does and goes into detail about its significance or influence as the source sees it(not as the company itself sees it). Press releases, the company website, staff interviews, announcements of routine business activities, and the like do not establish notability. Please read Your First Article.
- Note that using other articles as a model is not usually a good idea, as those too could be problematic and you wouldn't be aware of this- see other stuff exists. As this is a volunteer project where people do what they can when they can, it is possible for inappropriate content to get by us. We can only address what we know about. If you want to use other articles as a model, use those classified as good articles, which have been vetted by the community. 331dot (talk) 09:22, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- This is my first article, sorry for mistakes.
- Where I can insert the "Connected contributor (paid)"? Now I insert in the "User talk".
- It's important than Kama.Sport be on Wikipedia, as Wyskout (for example). Not for advertising. I will cancell the personal link of the founder. And I will add the Serie A link about the collaboration and the Social Football Summit Awards. LucreziaManenti (talk) 11:00, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am hoping to get a better understanding on what is considered an independent source. I am hoping to get an article about an internet music label (Geometric Lullaby) published, but was declined for a lack of independent sources. I assume this is due to my use of interviews being a part of the sources, but I only did so because there is not a lot of coverage on Geometric Lullaby on news outlets or the likes, mainly discussion on vaporwave pages on Facebook, Reddit, Twitter, and other unreliable sources. I would appreciate any help and clarification to assist in getting this page off the ground. Thank you.

- If interviews with company principals are all you have, odds are there's no chance we can have an article at this time. Bandcamp and YouTube are generally not acceptable sources (the latter's only usable if it's uploaded by a news agency or similar reliable outlet to its own verified channel). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 20:43, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for the reply. What you said makes sense, though I am curious about one thing: seeing that Bandcamp and YouTube are typically not accepted (except for certain circumstances), would the likes of small journals/reviews from unbiased independent sources suffice in the future? For example, if a fan of Geometric Lullaby were to create a review of the label as a whole without relying exclusively on information from the label owner and publish it to their own personal page (like a blog for example), would this be considered a reliable independent source? Thank you again for the clarification!

- No, because that falls under the same issues as Bandcamp does (no editorial oversight). Professional reviews of their music or albums would help immensely here. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 01:14, 5 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Could you tell me what exactly I need to get this back as a new page? I can expand with more details from the article, but things like birth and death and life are not easily available. His importance is the role he played in publishing political cartoons, and I'd like to use him as live link for the captions in images I've created in Andrew Jackson.
Again, I'm not asking for a review, just the minimum to get this back as an article. Thanks. (I don't know if this makes a difference: When I first posted, there was mention of lack of reliable source. I've now posted the JSTOR number, which can be confirmed.)

- To pass this process most reviewers look for at least three sources, you only have one so far. 331dot (talk) 23:31, 4 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
