Hi Qaei, thanks for your welcome. I have had this account for a few months, have done a couple of dozens edits and now having a go at first article. I do have some reservations: the article was declined immediately on the grounds the sources were "not independent or reliable". But the sources were Guitar World magazine, South China Morning Post, and similar. I didn't think you could get much more okay than that..? It's a BLP so I get that it is held to higher standards, and rightly so. But I haven't used the person's direct website or any publicity stuff except for in the External links, and followed the guidelines religiously, re "sources that are independent from the subject of the article" and "multiple sources that discuss the topic directly and in detail" (from wiki's own guidelines. The person who declined the article admitted they hadn't read it fully. Is that to be expected? Instant (frankly, pretty rude) rejection of articles? I'm just wondering how wiki ever gets any new editors if the process is that brutal, lol. I have made some changes, e.g. attributing descriptions the reviewer rejected on the grounds they weren't independent, so I put extra links in to their source. Is it usually this unfriendly? lol, but also not lol if you know what I mean. I worked pretty hard on it, and it was declined literally within seconds. Literally. That reviewer can't possibly have read it in the time. Just want to know if that's what this is always like. Thanks for your welcome, it was a relief to see some friendliness after that. :/ Misterdequincey (talk) 16:47, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
