Your submission at Articles for creation: Adrian Donsome Hanson (December 16)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SwisterTwister was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Clearly too soon as simply none of this establishes notability in policy.
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 when they have been resolved.

Conflict of Interest Disclosure

Hello, I am Michael Bundi, and I want to disclose that I have a connection to the subject of this article. I have edited this article to improve accuracy, neutrality, and verifiability by adding reliable sources, including media features, interviews, and credible third-party articles.

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because (your reason here) --The Serenader (talk) 23:22, 27 March 2025 (UTC) Hello,[reply]

This page should not be speedily deleted because it meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines. It includes significant coverage from multiple reliable sources, such as Nation Africa, Capital FM, People Daily, and Tuko, which provide in-depth details about Michael Bundi’s achievements as a prominent reggae artist and digital content creator.

The article highlights his cultural influence on platforms like TikTok and YouTube, his recognition by Etana’s Grammy-nominated album Pamoja, and his receiving of a YouTube Silver Play Button. These milestones demonstrate lasting significance in the music and digital content industries, making him a notable public figure.

I respectfully request that the speedy deletion tag be reconsidered and removed to allow for further improvements to the article.

Thank you. --The Serenader (talk) 23:22, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I request the removal of the speedy deletion tag on this page.

Please remove: `{{db|reason=Article does not meet notability standards}}`

Bundi is notable for being part of Grammy-nominated reggae artist Etana’s Pamoja album (as confirmed by [Citizen TV Kenya](https://www.citizen.digital/entertainment/etanas-pamoja-album-featuring-kenyan-artists-nominated-for-2022-grammy-awards-n287711)). 3. His YouTube account earned a Silver Play Button, and he is frequently cited among top Kenyan creators, as seen on Mpasho and Capital FM.

The article provides well-sourced content that verifies the subject's notability according to Wikipedia guidelines.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Gheus were:
This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.
Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Their outputs usually have multiple issues that prevent them from meeting our guidelines on writing articles. These include:
Please address these issues. The best way to do it is usually to read reliable sources and summarize them, instead of using a large language model. See our help page on large language models.
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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Michael Bundi (March 29)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Sophisticatedevening 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:
Apple music, Youtube and Tiktok are not reliable sources.
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.
