Your submission at Articles for creation: Charles Wijewardana 1948-2005 (May 23)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Theroadislong 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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Charles Wijewardana 1948-2005 and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Charles Wijewardana 1948-2005, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 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 Thanks thanks for putting this up but actually the way Wikipedia has spelled the surname is wrong and several information is wrong, I can provides the sources if you need but I don’t understand properly to link it on Wikipedia,hope you can help me out this right Imeshwijewardana (talk) 09:58, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The spelling of the surname needs to follow the article title and the article title needs to follow the spelling most commonly used in reliable sources. Having looked at the sources in the article they all spell it Wijewardena which isn't the spelling you used.

I can help with adding links but you need to provide the content. Most of what you added was a repetition of information that was already mentioned in the article. And any content you add must be in your words, not copied from elsewhere. Please also note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a tribute site for dead relatives.--Obi2canibe (talk) 11:43, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it is a common mistake to use e where a is supposed to be used and the topic even goes further to add an h to it if you need I can share the National ID card or passport and or death certificate as in Sri Lankan name the way the spell are different from blood line to family origin Imeshwijewardana (talk) 11:46, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't matter how official sources such ID cards spell the name, what matters is the spelling most commonly used in reliable sources. If you are not denying that you are related to the subject of the article, then my original notice applies - you shouldn't be editing the article.--Obi2canibe (talk) 18:44, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
