| Submission declined on 22 September 2025 by AlphaBetaGamma (talk). 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 events). 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. Declined by AlphaBetaGamma 43 days ago. | |
Comment: There is currently a redirect at Beaver Rocks. If this draft is accepted, the redirect should be changed to a disambiguation page, offering the choice of this page or a link to the place in Antarctica. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:11, 2 November 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: After using Google Translate on the sources, they appear to all be routine coverage of the event. Need sources that meet WP:ORGCRIT to show notability. CNMall41 (talk) 21:48, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
