Your submission at Articles for creation: Lauren O'Donovan (poet) (February 23)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MCE89 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:
The typical way for an author to meet the criteria for a Wikipedia article is to show that they have published multiple works that have each received multiple professional reviews (or other non-trivial secondary coverage). I wasn't able to find reviews of O'Donovan's collections, but if any exist they would be helpful to add. Given that the Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award is an award for newly published writers, I think it's unlikely to be enough on its own to show automatic eligibility for a Wikipedia article. You could also show that she meets the inclusion criteria by showing that there are multiple independent, reliable sources that discuss her and her work in detail (excluding interviews and other non-independent sources).
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 it after they have been resolved.
