Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from de:Alfons Zeileis to another page. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. For example: Content in this edit is translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{ translated page}} template on the talk pages of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, please add attribution retrospectively for that also, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. asilvering ( talk) 14:39, 22 November 2023 (UTC) reply

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

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Almost all of the sources used here are primary sources - archival documents, etc. We need sources that establish notability: significant coverage in secondary sources.

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.

Dear Theroadislong,

thank you for your comment. I took those references out.

I also understand, that in a translated article the source should be linked.

Would it be a better approach to provide only a summary of the original article?

I now worked on the citation of the newspaper articles. Would this be acceptable?

Regards

This seems like a solid article and a notable subject but I feel like the sourcing needs to be improved, this isn't really a solid basis for a page.

Thanks for contributing to the article Draft:Alfon Zeileis. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Sam Kuru (talk) 19:21, 4 December 2023 (UTC) reply

Again, you added the same mirror as a reference. Please stop; we cannot use sources that are copies of our own material. Sam Kuru (talk) 01:04, 7 December 2023 (UTC) reply
