Wikipedia clearly states that its purpose is to catalog knowledge/information that has been collected and published elsewhere. If you do not provide adequate citations to what are considered reputable sources, Wikipedia will reject your work.

It happened to me a number of times before I came to understand the Wikipedia model. They are not interested in your analysis, they are interested in statements that reference other inspectable "reputable" analyses.
