Hi Pichemist,

Thanks for your message. I'm confused and hoping you can clarify this a little bit. Specifically, I'm comparing the article draft I submitted to existing articles about Chicago-area cemeteries, e.g.:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acacia_Park_Cemetery,_Norwood_Park_Township

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvary_Cemetery_(Evanston,_Illinois)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irving_Park_Cemetery

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montrose_Cemetery

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Olive_Cemetery

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Olivet_Cemetery_(Chicago)

My article already has more references from in-depth, reliable, secondary sources than any of the above. Can you clarify why these articles were accepted, while mine was rejected? I'd love to become a more regular contributor to Wikipedia, so it's important for me to understand the editing guidelines! Rmshaf (talk) 18:57, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
