Hi, I got your email, but I prefer to talk about articles on-wiki.

I'm at a loss to know what to do with this draft. In an ideal world, there'd be coverage in BBC News, The Guardian and The Independent, and I'd use those sources to expand the article and pass it for review. But I can't find any reasonable English sources, and a search anything else brings up either blogs, porn sites or just generally undesirable material I don't want to go anywhere near. I appreciate there are foreign-language sources, but I'm just not really up to speed on what's reliable and what isn't outside the major broadsheets like Le Monde and Der Spiegel.

The only other possible person I can think of asking is SoWhy, who is multilingual and good at article rescue (I recall once he rewrote Micaela Schäfer into an acceptable state after I complained it was an unsalvageable mess), and while I can't imagine it's the sort of article he'd normally get involved with, hopefully he can see that the event is done out of a genuine respect for women's rights.

@Ritchie333: (pinged) Not sure why this was declined, the sourcing looks quite good, at least those I can understand:
  • Jolie is a lifestyle magazine akin to Cosmopolitan which I would consider reliable for such subjects (it was at one time led by journalist de:Anja Delastik who went on to lead the German iteration of Cosmopolitan).
  • news.de is a newsportal which according to the de-wiki article has a full journalistic staff which usually indicates that a source is reliable. The article in question was created by a "Voluntärin" (which roughly translates as "intern")
  • Stern is a weekly magazine similar to Der Spiegel or Focus. Their stories are often flashier than those of the other two (cf. We've had abortions!) but it is generally reliable (the Hitler Diaries fiasco notwithstanding)
  • The Schwarzwälder Bote is a major regional newspaper that exists since 1835. It's generally as reliable as similar English-speaking newspapers
  • il Fatto Quotidiano is an Italian newspaper led by Marco Travaglio. I see no reason to question its reliability.
All in all these sources alone are imho sufficiently reliable to establish notability and I cannot imagine any article with these kinds of sources being deleted at AFD had it been created in mainspace. Courtesy pinging reviewer Dan arndt. Regards SoWhy 09:43, 19 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
(talk page watcher) sounds good. Why not just move it into main space and let AfD test the weight of the evidence? ——Serial 10:28, 19 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

Valentine's day and Cake and Cunnilingus Day

edit

I want to thank you for your contribution to the Cake and Cunnilingus day article SoWhy, Storye book, Ritchie333 I still think that the article is related to Valentine's day for sure. Shouldn't we create a link on Valentine's day for C&C day? I am not sure how to do that Georgeof1001 (talk) 15:18, 4 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

If you have a reliable source making the connection, we can consider adding a link. Regards SoWhy 15:42, 4 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
@Georgeof1001. You are welcome. Storye book (talk) 16:03, 4 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
@SoWhy But.. aren't most if not all the links above explain this connection? Isn't this in fact what C&C day and S&B day is all about,and the reason why S&B day is already as a link on Valentine's day article? Georgeof1001 (talk) 15:48, 6 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
