New York Times Non-Fiction Best Sellers of 1999

edit

My apologies for not getting back sooner - sometime real life has a habit of getting in the way.

There are certain basic standards for articles on Wikipedia - including that the subject should have significant coverage in multiple independent verifiable secondary sources. Having an article about a list on the New York Times, with the sole reference being from the New York Times (which is a primary source) doesn't satisfy that basic criteria. Just because there are other similar articles, which lack independent references, is not a sufficient reason to substantiate your article (refer Other stuff exists). That is not to say that your draft article isn't notable it just needs supporting sources/references.

If you need any help/clarification let me know. Dan arndt (talk) 07:00, 24 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
