This page and information was requested of the late Gill. By no means should this page be requested for deletion. The wording and information gathered to create this accurate biography consisted of two years of interview and questioning in his last days. Despite the fact the tone of the information presented did not meet reviewers likeness, the information is 100% accurate. Will work further to meet this subjective, rather than objective disagreement. Anthony.CT.ASCP (talk) 08:21, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

September 2019[edit]

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:Gary Gill, from its old location at User:Anthony.CT.ASCP/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. -Liance^{talk/contribs} 22:32, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gary Gill (October 19)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Jovanmilic97 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:

Reads very promotional. "Gary W. Gill improved", "Most recognized", "Gill provided high standards"

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Gary Gill and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gary Gill (October 25)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Willsome429 were:

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Reads like a lot of original research, with a lot of claims about Gill that aren't sourced (reference to his personal slide collection, story of how he became employed, personal life).

Your submission at Articles for creation: Gary Gill (scientist) (January 20)[edit]

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 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 page appears to have been written to praise its subject rather than to describe the subject neutrally. Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view.

If this draft is resubmitted without being reworked, it may be nominated for deletion. You may ask for advice about the tone of articles at the Teahouse.

The last paragraph says: "Gary values the time he spends with his family." Is that the correct tense of the verb (or is there a religious implication)?

This draft lacks a proper lede sentence stating: "Gary Gill was a ...."

March 2020[edit]

Hi,

I am NOT receiving anything in return for this. The late Gill did so much for our tiny field composed of a limited number of people and it's painstaking that I cannot being describe how he contributed to our field without it being construed for marketing to the general public. I nearly took out everything he did for us to adhere to policies. His accomplishments listed have basically lost all content that reflect his real achievements.

FYI. Gill's hematoxylin is not even hardly used anymore due to the majority of labs using stains provided by Hologic Inc. and BD Surepath Inc. taking over the field. However, without Gill, none of these organizations would be where they are today.

Anthony.CT.ASCP (talk) 20:40, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Anthony.CT.ASCP. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, such as the edit you made to Draft:Gary Gill (scientist), but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially egregious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat SEO.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists, and if it does not, from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Anthony.CT.ASCP. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Anthony.CT.ASCP|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Sulfurboy (talk) 20:02, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Please address the paid editing concerns before re-submitting thank you.

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by WikiAviator was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Mentioned problems not solved after a few resubmissions. Notability not proven. Article still full of peacock terms and is highly un-neutral with suspicion of paid editing raised by other reviewers.

From one lab rat to another...[edit]

I was poking around some talk pages and came across a discussion relating to Draft:Gary Gill (scientist). As a practicing MLS I immediately recognized Gill's hematoxylin and understood why you'd want to write a draft on Gary Gill. Unfortunately the standards for biographical notability on Wikipedia are high (the relevant criterion would be WP:NACADEMIC) and since cytopathology is a small and insular field I am not sure if there is enough coverage in secondary sources for this article to pass the bar.

While I understand if you're too annoyed to continue, since the feedback you've gotten so far has not been all that helpful, I hope you will stick around and consider improving some articles related to medical laboratory science and cytopathology, which is a sadly neglected area on here. We didn't even have an article on white blood cell differential until I wrote one a couple months ago. It is easier to write about scientific concepts than biographies, and if you are interested in contributing to Wikipedia, improving some of the articles in Category:Histopathology, for example, might be a good place to start. The guide to reliable sources for medical articles and the Medicine WikiProject have some good resources for editing medical content. P.S. while I understand your frustration, calling people "full of shit" is not a good idea and breaches the WP:Civility policy. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 01:33, 21 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
