Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, 〜 Adflatuss • talk 05:18, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kim Min-ji (singer) (July 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 Prince of Erebor 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 music-related topics). 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Fails WP:BANDMEMBER. The subject person does not have any solo works outside of her group NewJeans, and does not have enough individual notability to warrant an independent article.

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:Kim Min-ji (singer) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kim Min-ji (singer) (July 13)

The comment the reviewer left was:

Hi AlexBw0524! I appreciate the effort you have put into composing this article. The current issue is not with your editing, but rather that Minji herself does not have enough individual notability outside of NewJeans.

Sorry for not making my initial comments clearer. I saw that you tried to expand the Endorsements section about her solo magazine shoots. As DoubleGrazing had explained at the Help Desk, the new content is more like trivia and does not relate to her entertainment career as a K-pop idol. I would expect to see her solo works within the entertainment industry, such as solo television appearances or the release of solo singles. For instance, Danielle lent her voice to the Korean dub of The Little Mermaid. You may consider mentioning about Minji as a special MC for Music Bank. However, I still believe her solo career is quite insignificant. So instead of fulfilling the notability guidelines for musicians, we may need to aim for satisfying WP:GNG, the general notability guidelines for biographies. This requires an abundance of secondary, independent, and reliable sources with significant coverage about Minji personally, rather than just as a member of her group. Upon reviewing the sources currently in the article, the J-14 and Lucy Jeong's South China Morning Post sources look promising, as they introduced and covered Minji's life independently. These sources are not yet fully utilized, for example, the SCMP source mentioned that Minji had resided in Canada, but this is not included in the article. Try to incorporate about 5 to 6 sources with this kind of independent coverage to clearly demonstrate her notability. I also have some reservations about the placement of certain content. For instance, the Kalguksu controversy and advertisements for political campaigns may be better suited for a separate Personal Life section, rather than the Career section. (I have already regrouped those stuffs, so no worries about this part. See Tzuyu#Flag controversy if you want to learn how to handle such content in the future.) But the inline citations for awards and controversies have the problem of REFBOMB. Try to limit citations to 2 to 3 per claim, and avoid directly using primary sources like Melon Music Awards and Billboard Japan, as well as unreliable sources like Times of India.

Simply put, you may consider adding some sources with independent coverage of Minji and tidying up the inline citations, the article should be close to being ready for mainspace. Keep up the good work and happy editing!

Hello! Thank you for reviewing the article :) The specific feedback is very helpful so I will try to implement it over the next few weeks (since work got super busy and I won't have as much time in the immediate 2 weeks). I'm still quite new to this so having experienced and detailed feedback is super helpful for guiding this process. Thank you for your time! AlexBW0524 (talk) 14:08, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Alex! I have been a newbie too and I understand the challenges when first editing Wikipedia. Take your time on the revision and let me know on my talk page once you are done so I can take another look. Cheers and happy editing! —Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 07:48, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
