Hello, I am seeking guidance regarding my draft article Draft:Rising Dragon School, which was recently declined with the comment that it is not adequately supported by reliable sources.

The draft currently cites coverage from China Daily, China Central Television (CCTV), Sohu News, and Europe Times, which all independently discuss the school. I asked for clarification on the draft talk page but have not yet received a response.

Could someone please advise whether the issue relates to the type of sources, the number of sources, or how the sources are used within the article? I would like to improve the draft appropriately before resubmitting.

Thank you for any guidance. [[User:LongTeng82|LongTeng82]] ([[User talk:LongTeng82|talk]]) 04:48, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

:The reviewer was blocked as a sockpuppet account, so I have un-reviewed it. It is now waiting for review again.
:Regarding your question about sources, see [[WP:Golden Rule]] to understand the kind of sources required. Ideally a reviewer likes to see at least three sources that ''each'' meet ''all'' the golden-rule criteria. ~[[User:Anachronist|Anachronist]] (who / me) <small>([[User talk:Anachronist|talk]])</small> 05:46, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
:@[[User:LongTeng82|LongTeng82]] - apologies for the slight hiccup in the review process. I don't know the details of that, but I've given a more detailed set of responses than I would normally give in order to assist you. Basically ditch AI, it's definitely not your friend, and look for rock solid significant coverage of the school as institution, rather than Scott giving interviews. I have to say I think it's unlikely that can be met, typically this sort of school won't get over the notability hurdle, some universities struggle!

::Hello ChrysGalley,
::Thanks for such a detailed response, I appreciate the guidance.
::You are correct that I used an AI tool to help polish the wording and grammar of the draft. My intention was simply to improve the clarity of the writing rather than generate content, but I understand the concern and I will rewrite the article myself to ensure it reflects Wikipedia’s expected tone and style.
::Regarding the sources, I understand your point about the distinction between coverage of the school as an institution and interviews focused on Scott Bird. Looking again at the sources, it does appear that much of the media coverage discusses Scott Bird personally and his work in China rather than the school alone.
::In that case, would it potentially be better to create a biography article about Scott Bird instead? Several of the sources focus on his background and journey training and teaching martial arts in China. There is also earlier independent coverage from the Solihull Times in the UK from the 1990s relating to his martial arts career.
::If that would be a more suitable approach under Wikipedia’s notability guidelines, I would be grateful for your advice on whether pursuing a biography article first would make more sense.
::Thank you again for your time and assistance. [[User:LongTeng82|LongTeng82]] ([[User talk:LongTeng82|talk]]) 10:40, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
:::@[[User:LongTeng82|LongTeng82]] It's just a simple question: does that subject, any subject, have 3 rock solid secondary, truly independent, sources, with significant coverage per [[WP:42]]? If so, summarise those 3 sources, don't do [[WP:BACKWARDS]]. So if SB meets that then you can certainly consider it.  Forget LLM, we can edit out dodgy grammar and spelling mistakes in seconds, but LLM takes hours to unravel. However writing about yourself is (a) hard to impossible, I don't have the skill-set to do it (b) strongly discouraged under [[WP:FAQAS]]. Fixing, improving, repairing, sourcing existing Wikipedia articles will not get you many thank yous, but is a much more creditable thing to do.
