Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (October 14)

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

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This was written by AI. Don't do that.

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 User:Rager7/sandbox 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.

I'm sorry, but which parts specifically were written by AI? Rager7 (talk) 21:39, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Rager7, I might be wrong but I was fairly sure that most of that draft was written by AI or at least proofedited by AI. Was I wrong? Happy to be wrong if so.

Even if it wasn't written by AI, the tone is not appropriate for Wikipedia. Could you re-write to be more factual and less emotive?

The topic may be notable for inclusion, though I'd like to see one or two more newspaper sources so we're not relying solely on charleyproject.

Let me know if you have any Qs. Qcne (talk) 12:44, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sadly, there's not much newspaper sources that I find due to the obscure nature of the event. As for it being AI written don't worry, I'll rewrite in my own words. The AI was used to get a good understanding of the event. In which, I'll try to sounds less biased towards the the two teenagers that were involved in that event. Rager7 (talk) 13:28, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Rolling Stones article is fine - any chance of one or two more like that? Even ones from the time, which you may be able to find in newspaper archives. Qcne (talk) 14:49, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, here are some sources: The Tape Room: 1973 NYC cold case involving missing teens resurfaces

Mitch Weiser and Bonnie Bickwit: Teenagers Disappeared Hitchhiking to a Concert, Hubpages.com

Mitchel Fred Weiser

The Mysterious Unsolved Disappearance of Mitchel “Mitch” Weiser and Bonita “Bonnie” Bickwit

Chilling cold case mystery of teenage sweethearts who vanished on the way to a gig could FINALLY be cracked 50 years on

NY Governor Orders Fresh Look at 50-Year-Old Missing Teens Cold Case

Sorry, if this is too much but I wonder which sources are acceptable and can be put into sandbox and which can be rejected and dismissed? Rager7 (talk) 01:59, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We can't use The Sun as that is a tabloid - but all the rest work. If you sprinkle those sources through the draft we could probably accept (once re-written). Qcne (talk) 10:16, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, thanks for the help! Rager7 (talk) 13:18, 16 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

October 2024

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:The disappearances of Mitchel Weiser and Bonnie Bickwit, from its old location at User:Rager7/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. I dream of horses (Hoofprints) (Neigh at me) 00:39, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, can it be accepted? I had fixed the issues the reviewer had addressed. Rager7 (talk) 00:41, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator Elections: Discussion phase

Administrator Elections | Discussion phase

The discussion phase of the October 2024 administrator elections is officially open. As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:

October 22–24 - Discussion phase
October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase
November 1–? - Scrutineering phase

During October 22–24, we will be in the discussion phase. The candidate subpages will open to questions and comments from everyone, in the same style as a request for adminship. You may discuss the candidates at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Discussion phase.

On October 25, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote tallies cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's tally during the election. The suffrage requirements are different from those at RFA.

Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for an indeterminate amount of time, perhaps a week or two. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose). As this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").

Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation. Happy electing.

Concerns from last time the article was declined have not been addressed. The article needs better sources and more coverage to persuade of notability. Like the previous reviewer said, this may belong on a more specific wiki project.
