Your submission at Articles for creation: Philip Morgan Lewis (Musician) (September 19)

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

The comment the reviewer left was:

Unlike the Grammys and Junos, the British Blues Awards is not a major music award. There were 800 nominees in 2014, including 32 in the category in which Lewis was nominated. That is not highly selective.

Of the labels that have released his albums, only Slip-n-Slide Records is notable. It has a roster of seven, two of whom are notable. That isn't a "roster of performers, many of whom are independently notable."

The review by Meghan Roos in Blues Rock Review is a start towards demonstrating notability through non-trivial works appearing in reliable sources independent of the musician. Blues Matters! is a potential second source (multiple pieces in the same periodical are normally counted as one source). But the draft cites it only for the fact that Lewis is mentioned therein. If the coverage were significant, one would expect to be able to cite it to support substantial content in the draft. Beyond these two, the sources are poor, with questionable reliability, trivial coverage, and/or a lack of independence.

So far the subject hasn't been shown to meet any of the notability guidelines (WP:COMPOSER, WP:MUSICBIO, or WP:BIO). If you believe he meets one:

Get rid of all or most of the current sources, except the Meghan Roos review and Blues Matters!.
Squeeze more out of Blues Matters!
Find a couple other high quality sources to show notability. Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources lists some that Wikipedians have found useful.
Rewrite the lead to make clear why he is notable, see Wikipedia:Writing better articles#Lead section

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.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Philip Morgan Lewis (Musician) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Philip Morgan Lewis (Musician), click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
