Hello, Sindrella409!
Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the
Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the
Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there!

The draft needs to satisfy the requirements of WP:MUSICBIO. One of the main issues when I reviewed the draft was the reliability of the cited references. Discogs, IMDb, and GoodReads, are not acceptable or reliable sources as they are user generated without any independent editorial oversight. In addition, podcasts, interviews and the individual's websites are all primary sources and therefore not independent or reliable either. The Detroit Free Presss website is behind a paywall so can't be accessed or verified. Also the sources require properly referenced inline citations - see WP:REFB. You also need to remove all embedded links to external websites ( WP:CS:EMBED) these should be replaced with inline citations. In addition, there are a number of statements in the draft that lack any sources or references - this constitutes original research and needs to be removed if a source to support it can't be found.
I hope that the above helps clarify my review. I would be prepared to reassess once the issues have been addressed. Happy editing. Dan arndt ( talk) 05:56, 16 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I notice that you carried out a newcomer's copyediting task on Sorcerer's Apprentice (Shah book). I reverted your edit because you removed several useful wikilinks, links to other Wikipedia articles, which rather defeats the purpose of a wiki. I've removed the dead external link that you found, as I checked the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine and couldn't find an archived version. It's best not to delete dead external links, but to check Google and the Wayback Machine first and update the link or tag them instead as dead links. See Wikipedia:Template index/Cleanup. I also copyedited the advert-like text that you had found. Regards, Esowteric + Talk + Breadcrumbs 19:29, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
