I believe the article is complete, encyclopedic and ready to resubmit. However, I have tried to add PARAGRAPH so many times and in different ways and it just will NOT SAVE.. Besides going to the tool bar at the top and clicking on Paragraph... and having the cursor where I need the paragraph what am I suppose to do? Thank you so much for allowing me to do this. I did search "add paragraphs" but these samples don't look like what I need.

If you want to turn text you have already written into a headline, you'll have to mark it, not just place your cursor next to it, when you click "paragraph" and select one of the options in the drop-down menu. In fact it seems to have worked here. If you want to create a new headline, moving the cursor to the position where you want it to be, choosing the appropriate level of headline from the drop-down menu, and typing the section title should work. Don't forget to save your changes. Huon (talk) 18:24, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: James Frank Gardner (November 21)[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 Onel5969 was:

*In its current state the article is not suitable for the Wikipedia. Articles on Wikipedia needs to be written as per Wikipedia's format and layout as well as it should be properly sourced to meet the Wikipedia's criteria for notability. And please look at WP:CIT about how to format citations, which makes it easier to evaluate the article. You need to remove all honorifics, and use only Gardner throughout the article, after its initial use. There is also much commentary in the article. Since there is a dearth of inline citations (see WP:ILC, much of this article appears like it could be original research.

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.
