Your submission at Articles for creation: Daniel H. Sandweiss (January 12)

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

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Daniel H. Sandweiss and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hi, per the additional notability standards listed in Wikipedia:Notability (people) , I believe this subject should qualify for a Wikipedia article.

Specifically, subjects are often suitable if "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times". The subject has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences in the United States, one of the highest honors (if not the highest) for a scientist in the United States. They are also the current president of the Society for American Archaeology, the leading organization for archaeologists in the United States.

Additionally, the subject is an academic researcher, and according to the guidelines, "Many scientists, researchers, philosophers and other scholars (collectively referred to as "academics" for convenience) are notably influential in the world of ideas without their biographies being the subject of secondary sources."

I am happy to add additional sources discussing the subject's accomplishments, however I would argue that according to these standards the article qualifies as-is. Chinchaycamac (talk) 00:56, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Chinchaycamac, just so you know, most reviewers won't receive your messages if you use the reply button like this - you actually need to ping them. (Known bug, sorry.) Type the @ sign once you've hit "reply" and their name should come up automatically. You're correct, by the way, about the NAS. If your articles are declined for lack of notability and the subject is an NAS member, please let the reviewer know so they can correct their mistake. Thanks for contributing! -- asilvering (talk) 21:16, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
