::*::Sorry to bother you but I was wondering about a bit of advice for a page I stumbled across (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_talk:Qiulae_Wong) and tried to help add sources to. I added what relevant sources I could find, but it seems it was recently rejected again. I am not the original author, but was just trying to help the original poster as I saw it sitting in drafts.

::*::Qiulae seems noteworthy as a political party leader. That said, I haven't been able to get any peer-reviewed journal articles for her as most of the relevant links are news sources. I was able to find a government source from some of her work in the UK, but it seems it isn't enough to get the article over the line. I am not sure what to do. Any advice you have would be appreciated! [[User:Mustleib|Mustleib]] ([[User talk:Mustleib#top|talk]]) 17:12, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

::::::I've looked at Qiulae and in my opinion she is sufficiently notable for inclusion. I believe the draft has not been accepted because most of the citations are too closely related to the subject or her party. My basic advice on creating new articles is to first find at least three reliable independent sources which describe the subject in some detail and to submit a first version of the article on that basis. Once the article has been accepted, it can be expanded with information from other sources. One of the problems seems to be that sources such as [https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/a-new-kingmaker-opportunity-leader-qiulae-wong-and-her-partys-chances-at-making-history/premium/O6S2QBHT7FCTJFYMWL2QWTYRBY/ this] are from newspapers which can only be accessed over the web after a subscription has been made. However, anyone who has a physical copy of the paper or has been able to access it over the web can of course include pertinent information from it, giving the title of the article, date of publication, etc. Some of the citations used in the draft such as [https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/political/579022/qiulae-wong-named-as-new-leader-of-opportunity-party RNZ] are already acceptable. It may therefore be worthwhile basing a new draft of the article on verifiably reliable independent sources, perhaps with the assistance of experienced contributors from Wikipeoject New Zealand such as {{u|MurielMary}}. Please keep in touch if you decide to proceed along these lines.--[[User:Ipigott|Ipigott]] ([[User talk:Ipigott|talk]]) 09:00, 25 April 2026 (UTC)
