We already have a DAB page at Douglas Stewart and it seems you have copy pasted that to draft space. There's a redirect from Doug Stewart, so that leaves your draft redundant. We do not list people the way you have listed Doug (Lawrence Douglas) Stewart in your draft. Is he mentioned in any articles in main space? Sam Sailor 17:04, 3 March 2018 (UTC) (please

mention me on reply)[reply]

Hi Sam, yes he is referred to on the ralliart article https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralliart But his name is unlinked as there is no article yet. Should i edit the Douglas Stewart page to add him and then create the article? I was trying to go the other way around and used the copy of the Douglas Stewarts link in an attempt to disambig but now have deleted that from the article Can you please check the draft article again and see if I'm now on the right track? And no, the Doug Stewart article is not this Doug Stewart Australian race and rally driver, founder of Ralliart. WikiLance105 (talk) 10:07, 6 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What you did in Special:Diff/807017244/829062269 is just fine, since he is mentioned in Ralliart. The draft needs sourcing, follow the links I have posted: we need significant coverage in reliable sources. Sam Sailor 21:46, 10 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Doug Stewart (March 10)

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

WP:42 applies.
