Indeed, the article has 18 references, but they're soft as mush: a horde of blogposts, the subject's own website, local school sites, press releases, casual mentions and the like.  What's missing is ''significant coverage'' from reliable media sources: while the wickedlocal.com is the home site of Gatehouse Media, which owns most of the small city dailies and weeklies in the region, the citation is to a two-article press release.  The Citizen-Herald article is long, but that paper's a local tabloid weekly of the sort not generally held to meet , even if the article wasn't hosted on the subject's website.Beyond that, it's written in a blatantly promotional style, and was created and has been edited by several SPAs, some of whom have commented here; I wonder if there's a COI issue at work
