Hello, Asf4000. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for article subjects for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template)—don't forget to give details of reliable sources supporting your suggestions;
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicizing, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. JBW (talk) 20:17, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Emilie Louise Gossiaux (September 29)

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

I'm sorry but I'm not quite seeing how this person is notable, maybe review the notability guidelines and walk me though it a bit. They sound really interesting!

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:Emilie Louise Gossiaux 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.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

@Asf4000 please feel free to ping me if you need help with anything or if you find anything confusing/frustrating. I'm pretty good at finding sources for articles but will admit that artists are not my strongest area of expertise but I'm willing to help you out in anyway that I can. Dr vulpes (Talk) 17:55, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much! Emilie is actually quite well known as a rising star in the contemporary art world, which is the field where I work. I'm surprised that her article was rejected, because her work and life been covered multiple times in the New York Times, Art in America, and the Brooklyn Rail, which are all significant outlets for this field, and she's been written about by pretty high-profile writers (Emily Watlington and Cassie Packard, who both just got Rabkin awards, see https://www.rabkinfoundation.org/cassie-packard, https://www.rabkinfoundation.org/emily-watlington). She's even been on the Today show (https://www.today.com/video/meet-the-blind-artist-who-has-deeper-connection-with-art-after-accident-791768131835). I appreciate any help and really thank you for your warm welcome! Asf4000 (talk) 06:07, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
