Indigenous Storytellers Edit-A-Thon

Thank you for working on these projects! I hope that the initial frustrations of wikipedia don't stop you from continuing to tell these stories - they are always evolving. Wikipedia's ecosystem is hard to navigate, but there are many allies. From my experience, in-person meetups are the best places to learn together - I hope you'll organize more, formal and informal.

Feel free to write me a note any time.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Bearcat was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please note that the notability of a filmmaker is not established by citing just one source that mentions her name in passing; notability requires multiple sources, not just one.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Ina Fichman and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Hi, thanks for the notes, I was still working on the page didn't think you'd be so fast! I added a bunch more citations and awards, and I'll continue to add to it. She looks in line for an Oscar nom this year so wanted to get going on it. Shannondawnwalsh (talk) 17:53, 22 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by TheChunky was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
