Your submission at Articles for creation: Progressbar95 (April 10)

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

To clarify the other comments on notability, the usual rule of thumb to comfortably meet WP:GNG is containing WP:THREE reliable reviews containing WP:SIGCOV from reliable sources of the type listed in WP:VG/S. I can find one for Lifehacker, and Android Central has unknown reliability: you may want to raise it in the talk page of WP:VG/S. Can you find more reliable review sources?

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:Progressbar95 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.

Hello!

Thanks for the suggestions.

Sadly, PB95 is a little niche, which is why there's not many reviews but the following:

- 3 reviews that were on the page in the draft.

- Metacritic user reviews (which are not allowed based on WP:VG/S)

- Portuguese review from a Wikipedia article of PB95 from the Portuguese Wikipedia

- Steam Curator Reviews (which I have no idea on the legality of).

And that's about it. If you could follow-up to me with some suggestions, that'd be nice. Thanks. ThatPB95 Fan (talk) 23:49, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia

Hi there, I noticed that you haven't been welcomed yet, so welcome :)

I'm not experienced myself with the article assessment side of things (the article classes), however you might want to request a GA review by following the process outlined at WP:Good article instead of the peer review. I seldom see many articles getting a peer review nowadays. Many Melbourne and Perth related railway articles have been promoted this way by many other editors who have a lot more time on Wikipedia than I do.

I don't think you need it, but Help:Getting started is a good base to brush up on Wikipedia policies and guidelines and how things work.

You might also be interested in having a look at WikiProject Australian Transport, a group where centralised discussions about Australian transport articles sometimes take place.

Cheers, Fork99 (talk) 00:52, 12 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello,

Thanks for inviting me to join the WP, I've joined and am looking forward to helping :)

I guess you're right about the rarity of PRs nowadays. I'll leave the PR up for 7-10 days and if there are no bites, I guess I'll just go for the GA then.

Thanks, ThatPB95 Fan (talk) 04:12, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Progressbar95 (April 25)

Your recent article submission has been rejected and cannot be resubmitted. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Zxcvbnm was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: I am unconvinced ag.ru constitutes significant coverage. Furthermore the creator's username very much implies they are trying to "force" notability where none exists. While notability may happen later (WP:TOOSOON) continually resubmitting won't solve anything, hopefully you are able to move on until such time that this game is actually notable, if ever.
