Thanks for your edit there, but we don't generally link to drafts from articles. The correct way to fix the red link was to create a redirect, which I have done at Australian Paralympic FederationAustralian Paralympic Federation. Graham87 (talk) 16:08, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi Graham87, apologies. Thanks for the advice. Have a great day! Sportsguyaus (talk) 01:59, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: North Queensland Sports Foundation (July 30)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Asilvering 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 brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
• reliable
• secondary
• strictly independent of the subject
  

Make sure you add references that meet all four of 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:

Can you please find some more independent references to show that the org is eligible for a wikipedia article? It will also be helpful if you could add footnotes to sentences that don't have them, to show your sources more clearly.

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:North Queensland Sports Foundation 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.
