Your submission at Articles for creation: Mike Salvino (March 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Kashmorwiki were:

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.

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This is a case of WP:REFMOMB. Some of the sources are giving the subject some trivial coverage. The rest is not needed here. This draft should be resubmitted after removing all the unnecessary citations

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:Mike Salvino 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:Mike Salvino, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" 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.

I've made some coments--I think the article can possibly be rescued--as the continuation of the Rockefeller family office it is not run of the mill. SInce I'm interested in this corner of the financial industry, I've decided to edit it. Naturally, I'm removing excessive use of the firm name, details of the board of directors, and unreliable references. If I complete it to my own satisfaction, I'll accept it, and if necessary defend it. If you want to help, remove about half the references--everything not essential to the notability . As I've said, if I'm interested in the subject, I will work with anyone who will work with me. Emphasis on the with/ . (se also my comment on Fleming). DGG ( talk ) 04:20, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DGG, thank you very much for your assistance on RCM. I see you have already trimmed the article and removed a number of citations.

Is there any assistance that I can be? Would you like me to remove further citations?

Let me know, and thanks again. TerryBG (talk) 06:31, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would like you to remove all unnnecessary citations from all. your articles and drafts. If there are several references for aparticular point, keep only the best. If the ref. is a press release, remove it--if there's no other source, consider removing what it references. DGG ( talk ) 06:48, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Will do, thanks. TerryBG (talk) 06:59, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DGG, I have trimmed the citations further on Draft:Rockefeller Capital Management, so that there is no more than one citation per fact. If or when you are able, please take a look at it and let me know if I may be of any further assistance. Thank you very much. TerryBG (talk) 08:05, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Trimming the citations is all very well, but you need to engage with the advice, not just with the advisor. The quality of the remaining citations is poor. We need quality of reference, not quantity.

We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS please. See WP:42. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact referred to, that meet these tough criteria is likely to allow this draft to be accepted. Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the topic is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today. Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 13:48, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
