Hi Dan,

My page was a draft so I was planning on adding more citations. Are the ones that I have added acceptable?

Thank you for your help.

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

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.

Hi Jannatulbaqi,

His books are noted by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society as being of such significance that they collected all editions as a set in their library. Could that not be enough to establish him as important enough to have a page? He deserves to be remembered. Thank you for your help.-Amy ALG Larch (talk) 12:34, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
