I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:SmallAnt. Thanks! -- NotCharizard 🗨 14:30, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the feedback! Could I just ask you a couple of questions about better ways to verify, other than the primary sources? - I'm quite new here, sorry.
The early beginnings of SmallAnt's career, and his personal life, is mostly mentioned by SmallAnt himself talking about it - on stream, as well as online. The part talking about how he streamed LittleBigPlanet - maybe I should verify that with a statistics website source? I could maybe verify that he started by joining a Super Mario Odyssey speedrunning tournament by linking to the tournament itself, but I don't know if that counts. But the part about SmallAnt's personal life - I can't really think of any way to verify that besides primary sources, because he's the one saying the information. Does that mean it's not notable? How would I source these pieces of information?
Thank you, and sorry for my inexperience. (Also, does this mean the submission has been rejected?) ArjunQM (talk) 16:03, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The purpose of Wikipedia is to summarise what reliable, secondary sources say about a topic. I would remove what can only be cited by primary sources, as it is contrary to the purpose of wikipedia.
If there aren’t enough secondary sources, SmallAnt may not be wiki-notable enough for an article.
The article has been declined, which means you are welcome to continue working on it and submit it again (on wikipedia we use “rejected” to mean there’s no hope and you can’t resubmit). -- NotCharizard 🗨 02:40, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, thanks for the clarification! I'll remove the bits supported by primary sources. I do think SmallAnt is definitely wiki-notable as I have cited other independent secondary sources too. Thanks for your reply - I will continue working on the article and resubmit in the future. ArjunQM (talk) 09:17, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
