Hello JoshuaAnderson15, welcome to Wikipedia. I'm an administrator here who spends more time than most on investigations relating to our
Regarding your article, Mathias le Fèvre, it has been nominated for a deletion discussion (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mathias le Fèvre) because another editor has reviewed it and believes that the sources presented in the article fail to demonstrate notability. It looks like you started this article as a draft and had a rejection from a reviewer already, and by sidestepping the review process you've now exposed the article to deletion. Drafts can be left for you to work on, but articles must meet guidelines or they are deleted.
On Wikipedia, notability is not a popularity contest or a head-count vote, it's based on a set of criteria that our community has developed over nearly 20 years now, intended to reflect the real-world "importance" of a topic based on coverage outside of Wikipedia. The very basic broad rule is the
Since that rule is meant to apply to every conceivable topic, we also have a wide-ranging set of more specific "supplemental" notability guidelines; the one for fashion models is located at
I also have to advise you that if you are receiving any kind of compensation to write about a topic on Wikipedia, you are
I'm going to suggest in the discussion that your article be moved back to the Draft: namespace so that you can work on improving it (add more sources that demonstrate encyclopedic notability and fewer that are just images and passing mentions) and making it read less like an advertisement and more like an encyclopedia article. However, AfD is a community discussion and other editors are allowed to express different opinions, and somebody who has not participated will determine the outcome in a few days. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 15:57, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
response to SPI follow up
Hello Ivanvector, thank you for welcoming me to Wikipedia and for following up on this thread. Your gentle way of handling the issue relating to
Regarding my article, (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mathias le Fèvre), I understand that more sources are necessary to demonstrate notability of the subject. While finding these sources, would you suggest that I move the article back into a "draft" page or will this be decided and handled by the user determining the outcome?
To be completely transparent, I am not in any way being compensated to write this article. I am a journalist with a focus on the fashion industry. I have been wanting to contribute to Wikipedia for a while as I feel that there is room to contribute on this type of pages.
I look forward to your answer. Many thanks, JoshuaAnderson15 (talk) 15:57, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
