Your submission at Articles for creation: Daniel Boguslaw (October 22)
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:
It's quite tricky for a journalist to get an article in Wikipedia, if you look around there are some pretty well known names without entries.
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.
The first hurdle is WP:BASIC - we need 3 in-depth profiles of the subject by independent sources, covering much or all of his career.
The next issue is that while there are lots of sources here for what he has written, that's not really the focus, the focus is on what other people say about him. Having a pile up of 9 references is unhelpful to readers, see WP:REFBOMB - a few good quality examples rather than lots of incidental material.
Finally can you clarify if you are the subject, know the subject or have any connection with him? If so then you need to go through WP:COI. The question arises since the photo is marked "own work" and suggests some sort of proximity.- If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Daniel Boguslaw 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.
