Your submission at Articles for creation: 2024 Comrades Marathon (June 21)

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

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. 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:

Three of the four sources are from the event website.

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:2024 Comrades Marathon 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.

2023 Comrades Marathon

Hey Whybeetoo - great to see you create an article for the 2024 Comrades. I'm working on a draft of the 2023 Comrades Marathon that I want to move over to the mainspace once ready and try to nominate for Did You Know? on the front page, if you'd like to collaborate.

List of winners of the Comrades Marathon moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to List of winners of the Comrades Marathon. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and page needs fixing. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. CycloneYoris ^talk! 08:53, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Have rectified these issues i believe. Whybeetoo (talk) 13:50, 31 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
