Seeking feedback for Draft:James F. Allen (businessman)[edit]

Resolved

Hello, page watchers. Since editors here may be more familiar with the Seminole Tribe, specifically in Florida, I'm hoping I can get some additional feedback on a draft I recently submitted to AfC. Full disclosure: This draft article for James F. Allen, who serves as chairman of Hard Rock International and CEO of Seminole Gaming and has led the Seminole Tribe of Florida's gaming operations since 2001, was written on his behalf and as part of my work with Beutler Ink.

The draft was declined by User:SwisterTwister for being "Too suggestive of an advertised business profile for clients, notability cannot be inherited from others and the sources are largely consisting of simple announcements, local business journals, notices and similar." I posted a reply on the draft's talk page, and received a response in the form of an additional AfC comment that said the sources were "not significant weight-ful of notability, including because they include local business publications and similar". I'm not entirely sure what this means because I thought the sources used are considered major publications (for example, Forbes and The Press of Atlantic City); it would be helpful to get editors from here to take a look and point me in the right direction, or help confirm notability. My goal remains to have the draft deemed accurate and neutral, and moved into the main space.

I appreciate the AfC process and SwisterTwister's review of the draft, but this process has not really provided specific ways to improve the draft, so I'm casting a wider net and reaching out to people who may be 'watchlisting' this page for additional input. Is there anyone who is willing to review this draft and provide additional feedback? Thanks in advance for any assistance. Inkian Jason (talk) 18:48, 27 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I am marking this section as 'resolved' since the article has been moved into the main space. Thanks! Inkian Jason (talk) 19:41, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Terminology[edit]

Resolved

I noticed that this article used the term "full bloods." While I am no word police by any means, the use of this term struck me as outdated. However, while I've read much on the history of the Seminole, I don't know any Seminoles personally and am unsure if this is a commonly accepted term for tribe members (I tried doing some cursory research on the term myself but couldn't find any answers). I wanted to pose the question here and hope that someone might know if "full bloods" is the correct terminology here. Thanks! Amscheip (talk) 03:30, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
