Your submission at Articles for creation: Inger Andersson (biochemist) (June 11)
Draft declined
This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for academics. The draft requires either:
- evidence that the subject meets any of the specific criteria for academics;
or multiple published secondary sources that:
- provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements;
- are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
- are independent: not connected to the subject, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.
This draft is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Wikipedia's verifiability policy requires that all content be supported by reliable sources.
- Reliable sources include: reputable newspapers, magazines, academic journals, and books from respected publishers.
- Unacceptable sources include: personal blogs, social media, predatory publishers, most tabloids, and websites where anyone can contribute.
Not very convincing, particularly as her highest cited paper is part of John Spence's work. It looks to be WP:TOOSOON. Major issues with no sources.
Next steps
- Edit Draft:Inger Andersson (biochemist) to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
- When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
