Talk:Backwaters Press

message: Thank you for your review and helpful comments on the three articles that I have been working on: Mayapple Press, Backwaters Press, and Matt Mason (Poet). Your comments were challenging but hopefully we have addressed issues (or at least made progress). I understand that often what is relevant or not and/or what is sufficient sourcing is at times somewhat subjective and I am all in favor of working towards consensus of multiple editors to address such questions. As a new editor though, what I need additional guidance on is what you regard as the criteria for notability. All three of these articles have been on Wikipedia for several (+5) years (even to the point that what I saw that I was mostly doing was "updating" them) and appeared to have notability issues long resolved, but you have tagged them all as problematic in that regard and in one case, have requested deletion. Can you provide me with your objective standard that you would accept as confirming these articles are "notable?" Are there standards which can be relied on as the consensus of most editors? Do forgive me, I do not mean to be contentious. I am new and undoubtedly require some education on this matter. But it would seem to me that if these articles indeed are not notable, then a serious and perhaps impossible to resolve methodological issue exists with Wikipedia editing, such that that it continues to force editors "to go in circles" and allows no understood resolution. With all due respect, I started to work on these articles to hopefully resolve issues, not to "go in circles" on issues long resolved. Thank you for your patience with me.
