Your submission at Articles for creation: Roger A. Ramsammy (November 6)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by GeneralPoxter 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 for academics). 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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Roger A. Ramsammy and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Roger A. Ramsammy, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

AfC timing

At any given time, roughly 8% of AfC submission have been waiting 3-5 months, but none more than 5 months. Be patient (and work on improving the article while waiting). David notMD (talk) 20:18, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much! David notMD Zippylips (talk) 20:21, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Start comments with one more colon than the last comment, to indent. Your refs are weak. Exampels: #9 is written by the person the draft is about; #10 mentions the school, but not him. David notMD (talk) 20:25, 13 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
