Your submission at Articles for creation: Musicinfo (June 18)

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Significant independent coverage does not appear to exist.

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:Musicinfo 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:Musicinfo, 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 need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Hei,

Sain sähköpostisi. Miten nuo suomenkieliset lähteet pitää tarkistaa, mitä sivun tarkastaja haluaa tietää niistä? JIP | Talk 19:30, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Moi, firefly haluaisi vahvistuksen sille, että lähteet tukevat artikkelin väitteitä (suomenkielisiä niistä siis vain kaksi), ja että ne vastaavat wikipedian laatuvaatimuksia.BridgeScript (talk) 07:46, 19 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Musicinfo (October 24)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by K.e.coffman 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 organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help). 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.

Hi, you appear to have sent me an email. I prefer to communicate on Wiki, so if you could post your questions here, I'd be glad to respond (I did not want to repost it publicly without your permission). --K.e.coffman (talk) 22:57, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Right! So the message and the question is this: Can you exactly pinpoint those references that do not meet Wikipedia standards for independent coverage? I believe the subject's notability itself is hardly open to debate, as it has been mentioned in high profile secondary sources (e.g., Finland's national public broadcasting company: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yle)

Your colleague "Firefly" who demanded changes to the article's first version said this of the above mentioned reference: "That source you linked is a good one, and would go a long way toward showing notability. I'd recommend working material referenced to it into the article."

And so I have done.

If the problem is that it's a company-related article, I'd like to draw attention to the fact that many companies similar to Musicinfo have articles published about them on Wikipedia, with similar references.

DistroKid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DistroKid
Horus Music https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horus_Music
TuneCore https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TuneCore
CD Baby https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD_Baby

Do you categorically object to the article being published, or do you want changes to the references?
