Draft:SaunaAtlas

Submission declined on 1 January 2025 by Spiderone (talk).

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 web content). 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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.

SaunaAtlas was inspired by the growing global interest in saunas, with the founders identifying a need for a comprehensive resource that not only lists existing and upcoming saunas but also highlights the diverse sauna traditions around the world, particularly in Finland, the birthplace of sauna culture. The core mission of SaunaAtlas is to spread the joy and cultural significance of sauna bathing to a global audience.
