Your submission at Articles for creation: La Garenne International School (April 5)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

just blatant advertising

This is unfair and, to be frank, pretty rude. This is not an advertisement. It reflects a school with a history, just as these do: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coll%C3%A8ge_Alpin_International_Beau_Soleil or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aiglon_College - did you leave the same comments on their pages? What do you suggest we change? Schoola (talk) 10:53, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please read other poor quality articles exist and who is "we'? Wikipedia accounts are strictly single person use. Theroadislong (talk) 11:10, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As required, I noted my connection to the school before beginning to create the article. This is my personal account and I have had it for several years. I understand you are a volunteer and that you see dozens of articles a day, including a lot of rubbish. I don't understand why it is necessary to be rude.

Please point out where I was rude? You have created a draft which is blatantly advertising you can ask for other opinions here Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk (new section). Theroadislong (talk) 11:34, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The tone of your contributions is rude. Take it as constructive feedback. You'll be a better reviewer if you do. Schoola (talk) 12:03, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
