Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Written inappropriately throughout.

Hello, CriterionCapital! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

See you there! Qcne (talk) 17:45, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, my username as been changed from CriterionCapital to "Royce, like Rolls". Also, I have revised the article draft and removed the "peacock" language. I plan on resubmitting in a day or so after I review it again with fresh eyes. Royce, like Rolls (talk) 20:07, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Royce, like Rolls, that draft reads a lot better, thank you. A few things:

- we only refer to people by their surname after the first sentence.

- we need a citation for his full date of birth.

- you can probably rephrase the following to be a little more formal: "Later, Sam would get into"; "and make it on his own"; " "The Korean War would take Foose away from customizing cars for a time", "

Your sources are okay, but I wonder if there is any more coverage of Sam in mainstream automotive magazines and literature or in larger-circulation newspapers? A couple more sources, maybe only one or two, would help establish notability under WP:NPERSON.

Otherwise, it's in a far better state than when you first submitted it. If you can make some further improvements and let me know, I'd be willing to take another look. Qcne (talk) 21:08, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (February 29)

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

This appears to be a duplicate of another submission, Ralph J. Nagel, which is also waiting to be reviewed. To save time we will consider the other submission and not this one.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please do not submit multiple copies of drafts. It does not increase the likelihood that one of them will be accepted into article space, and annoys the reviewers. It is likely to be seen as an effort to game the system, and may result in the drafts being nominated for deletion.

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:Royce, like Rolls/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Thank you. That was an oversight on my part, I had an initial version in draft and thought it more appropriate to develop and refine it in my sandbox. I will make the draft the most current and eliminate the sandbox version. Royce, like Rolls (talk) 16:40, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
