Hi, Kirsty. Please read the notability guidelines.Deb (talk) 15:16, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
But how comes similar websites/magazines can have entries? Kirsty36 (talk) 15:23, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
- I would agree, there is not much to choose between the article on Pulse and the one you created. To that end, I have tagged it for proposed deletion. The difference between them is that the Pulse article has been in existence since 2008 and our rules on referencing were not as strict then. People tended to go on whether they thought something met the notability criteria rather than whether it could be proven to. As for the other website you mentioned, I could not find an article on it - can you point me to it?
- To answer your second question, yes, it would certainly help if you added independent references to the article. But you should also be aware of the guideline on conflicts of interest.Deb (talk) 16:51, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
