Giorgio Blais moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Giorgio Blais, is not suitable as written to remain published. While you've provide a plethora of sources, all but one of them do not have enough information to meet WP:VERIFY. Please see WP:CIT as to what information is needed to meet that criteria. In addition, please see WP:CITEBOMB.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Gresham Life Assurance Society moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Gresham Life Assurance Society, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 23:25, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Since we are talking about a british historical company, I felt as a duty to translate the page from italian https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gresham_Life_Assurance On top of it I've added information from this french page https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palais_Gresham I think that without the help of other fellow wikipedians I will not be able to improve this draft for the time being. Rergards --Ricercastorica (talk) 09:27, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ricercastorica, thank you for translating the page. The difficulty with translating articles from other wikis, other than the translation itself, is that many other wikis do not have the same standards. The single source in the article is simple listing which, while showing that the company existed, does not show it's notability. I do think this company may be notable, but finding sources may be difficult. WP has a policy called WP:VERIFY, and currently there simply isn't enough in the single ref to verify the article's content. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 10:55, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gresham Life Assurance Society (August 1)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Qwerfjkl 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 organizations and companies). 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.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Gresham Life Assurance Society and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Gresham Life Assurance Society, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gresham Life Assurance Society (November 6)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

These are all primary sources. A better URL for the centenary souvenir is https://worldcat.org/title/32105683

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:Gresham Life Assurance Society 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.
