Repeal the Second Amendment moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Repeal the Second Amendment, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Sungodtemple (talk • contribs) 20:35, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The only sources cited are those by the author of the book and are not independent of the subject, so notability is not established. The prose of the article presents an opinion as fact, that the Second Amendment was abused by the NRA. Please change this to say "Lichtman argues" or something like that, to present the opinion as an opinion. Lastly, Wikipedia is not a place for activism, if you are trying to do that.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Repeal the Second Amendment (February 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Mcmatter was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please read through WP:NBOOK

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Repeal the Second Amendment and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Portland, Oregon, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 10:09, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I will. Thank you. Belle vieu (talk) 10:12, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Concern regarding Draft:Repeal the Second Amendment

Your draft article, Draft:Repeal the Second Amendment

Hello, Belle vieu. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Repeal the Second Amendment".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:55, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

September 2023

Hello, I'm JimRenge. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Islam in the United States, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please see WP:BURDEN. JimRenge (talk) 19:58, 10 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Emmanuelle Chriqui. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Thedarkknightli (talk) 10:27, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
