Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue on the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 21:06, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dan, in terms of reliable sources, I have read that this could be in the form of a book, with the author and publisher listed.

There was a book created for the competitions 125th anniversary in 2022 which is available on amazon.

This is the link for it https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mont-Mexborough-Montagu-Hospital-1897-2022/dp/1739226704

There doesnt appear to be any online version of the book anywhere without paying for it

but does state on Amazon that Steve Penny is the author and the publisher is 'Penny for your Sports – Steven Penny'

Would this be enough to approve in your opinion?

Kind Regards

Your submission at Articles for creation: Mexborough Montagu Hospital Cup (November 4)

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

Contains a significant amount of original research
