Your submission at Articles for creation: MAD! (March 5)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by SK2242 was:
This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:
Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. 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:
You need multiple sources (ideally 3 or more) that are:
* completely unaffiliated with the subject
* provide significant coverage (i.e. talk in detail, at least two paragraphs) about the album
* are considered to be reliable, especially when reporting on living persons. If you are unsure of the quality of a source, see the list at WP:RSP or ask at the reliable sources noticeboard.

The sources in the article are good for verifying basic facts, but not for notability. They are either from the label's website, the band's website, Spotify or an interview. They are not independent of the subject.

There are alternative notability requirements for music recordings, but this album is unlikely to meet any of them at this time as the album has not yet been released.
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.

I have made changes to the article. In addition, I would argue on the point of notability, considering how commonplace it is for upcoming releases to get published. Examples:

Thank you for the reply. The sources look better this time. If you resubmit the draft, I may accept it or at the least let another reviewer take a look at it. The articles you mention exist, despite the fact they are unreleased, because of the good coverage shown by reliable sources. SK2242 (talk) 01:06, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Will do, & thanks! Davejfudge (talk) 03:16, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Mad (Sparks album) (March 9)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by RangersRus 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 music-related topics). 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.
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.

Thank you so much! If I had a single request, I'll ask it here. Since I'm still new to wikipedia (not yet autoconfirmed), I do not appear to have the ability to add a fair-use image for the album infobox. If you wish to add a suitable image, I would be very thankful. Davejfudge (talk) 15:54, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have been editing here for 17 years but have never familiarised myself with fair use images, I'll have a rumage and see how it's done. Theroadislong (talk) 15:58, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
