Hello, PantherNational, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Draft:Panther National, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's content policies and may not be retained. In short, the topic of an article must be notable and have already been the subject of publication by reliable and independent sources.

Please review Your first article for an overview of the article creation process. The Article Wizard is available to help you create an article, where it will be reviewed and considered for publication.

Can you please help me get this article posted? My name is Jack and I'm working for Panther National. I'm now reading that I can't have the same username as my company (private golf course). So frustrating I spent hours on this article. Any help is greatly appreciated PantherNational (talk) 20:13, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi Jack, thanks for changing your username. I think the article is off to a solid start but that it will need a bit of work before it has a chance to be published on Wikipedia. The article draft was declined because there are no third party references that demonstrate that the course is important enough for a Wikipedia article. Just from some quick Googling, I see the course has been the subject of an article by the New York Post [1], by Links Magazine [2], Golf Digest [3], and by Palm Beach Post [4]. If you could add these articles as references in your draft, that would help. Are there any other examples of third party coverage you can find in newspapers or golf magazines? The more you find (and the higher their profile), the stronger the case you have that this course is notable enough to deserve an encyclopedia article.
The next thing that would concern me is making sure that the text in the article is not copied and pasted from a copyrighted source. Even if you have permission to contribute the copyrighted text, it is not as simple as just stating you would like to do this. See Wikipedia:Copyright_violations#Contributor_is_copyright_holder and Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information. Also, are the images copyrighted?
Finally, the article needs to be written in a neutral point of view in a way that is encyclopedic. I know you said you tried to write it neutrally, but "Panther National is the vision of Founder and President Dominik Senn, who united two golfing legends, Jack Nicklaus and Justin Thomas, to design and create a groundbreaking golf course" sounds like it was written by somebody paid to market the course and is just not going to come across as neutral. Hope this all helps. Malinaccier (talk) 00:10, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Examples of usernames that are not allowed include "XYZ Company", "MyWidgetsUSA.com", and "Foobar Museum of Art". However, you are permitted to use a username that contains such a name if it identifies you individually (not your role), such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87", but not "SEO Manager at XYZ Company".

Please also note that Wikipedia does not allow accounts to be shared by multiple people and that you may not advocate for or promote any company, group, organization, product, service, or website, regardless of your username. Please also read our paid editing policy and our conflict of interest guideline. If you are a single individual and are willing to contribute to Wikipedia in an unbiased manner, please request a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, choosing a username that complies with our username policy. Alternatively, you can just create a new account and use that for editing. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. Thank you.

User:Jack.golfer1998 was actually just transcluding Draft:Panther National. I've removed that transclusion, since it was confusing, somewhat inappropriate for a "main userpage", and likely unintentional. jlwoodwa (talk) 00:20, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for declaring your conflict of interest. That doesn't mean you can write what you like, you must follow the guidance below:

  • you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the organisation or company, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, logs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company or organisation claims or interviewing its management. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
  • The notability guidelines for organisations and companies have been updated. The primary criteria has five components that must be evaluated separately and independently to determine if it is met:
  1. significant coverage in
  2. independent,
  3. multiple,
  4. reliable,
  5. secondary sources.
Note that an individual source must meet all four criteria to be counted towards notability. To show notability you should include hard verifiable facts such as the number of employees, management structure, turnover or profits.
  • You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.
  • There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
  • You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

You had no inline independent third-party references, and the text was a promo rather than an encyclopaeidia article

Before attempting to write an article again, please make sure that the topic meets the notability criteria linked above, and check that you can find independent third party sources. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:25, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
