Your submission at Articles for creation: David Gianotten (January 18) edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please read the WP:ARCHITECT criteria.

@Curb Safe Charmer thank you for your edits to Draft:David Gianotten. I am not sure about your comments and am seeking your advice.

The sources that I have included have all been published by third parties.

- Design Trust (20 March 2020). "International Advisory Council". Retrieved 18 January 2021. (Design trust is an independent NGO based in Hong Kong)

- Gianotten, David (26 Feb 2013). "Hier is een architect heus geen superstar" (Interview) (in Dutch). Interviewed by Henny de Lange. Retrieved 8 December 2021.

(Trouw is a widely read Dutch newspaper, and an article, even interview, published there should be credible? I assume the journalist has also fact-checked?)

- Wiles, William (16 October 2008). "Roombeek Culture Cluster". ICON. Retrieved 18 January 2021. (ICON is an important design magazine, thus a reliable source?)

- Van Schoor, Steven (2014). 'Ik ben geen ik' - de verdwijntruc van Rem Koolhaas ['I am not me' - Rem Koolhaas's disappearing act] (PDF). Masterscriptie, Ghent University (Thesis) – via Universiteitsbibliotheek Gent. (This is a published thesis by a student researcher. in the article, interviews with Gianotten have been quoted as reliable sources too.)

- Wong, Olga; Chow, Vivienne (4 January 2011). "Architectural firm OMA moves Asian HQ from Beijing to Hong Kong". Retrieved 8 December 2021. (South China Morning Post is the largest English language newspaper in Hong Kong. Assuming that the journalists have factchecked, and the article with quotes from Gianotten is reliable?)

- "Gianotten named managing partner-architect of OMA". Construction Week (Press release). 9 December 2014. Retrieved 18 January 2021. (This is not a press release, but a news item published by a trade publication. Assuming that the info has been fact checked?)

- Gosavi, Ritu. "Design for a five-story office building in Amsterdam revealed by OMA / David Gianotten". Rethinking The Future. Retrieved 8 December 2021. (This is not an interview. it is recent, and covers the work of Gianotten rather extensively)

- Gianotten, David. "Conversations with Leading Professionals" (Interview). Interviewed by Aaron Prinz. Retrieved 8 December 2021. (AR is one of the most important platforms for architects. assuming what they publish is credible?)

I have included these sources based on my knowledge that I got from journalism school and phd studies. I am hoping to understand why the sources included above are not credible. Would be wonderful to have your feedback, and thanks so much for all your input. Manha Sylvia (talk) 00:43, 19 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
