The comment the reviewer left was:

The awards and honors section, which includes a "honorary degree" comes across as promotion - Most of the references below are not reliable, as they are directly written by the subject. To establish notability, and to have acceptable citations, please add in third party references not involving the subject as an editor or author.

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at User talk:Robert McClenon, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:18, 6 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cecil Edmund Yarwood

My apologies for the delay in replying to your concerns about the decline on the submission. Upon reflection that draft should not have been declined on my part, as it was certainly a workable article that only required minor copy editing. I see that User:Joe Roe has stepped in to accept the submission, my apologies for any delay in your work the decline caused. Thank you for taking the time to contribute to Wikipedia and I hope you will continue to create content for the project. Thanks! Garchy (talk) 17:53, 10 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
