July 2018[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:Global trade in the early modern world, from its old location at User:INicolas225/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. ‐‐1997kB (talk) 02:58, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Shipbuilding in the early modern era (July 30)[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 Gbawden was:

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.

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:Shipbuilding in the early modern era and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Shipbuilding in the early modern era, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{db-self}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.

Feedback[edit]

Hi! Here's some feedback on your shipbuilding draft:

The first thing I noticed was that the work is fairly general in what it talks about - you do have the topic of early modern period shipbuilding, but this seems to be a bit too general in that parts of it are fairly vague. You may want to focus on how shipbuilding evolved during this time period in each area and what major changes came about.

The article needs to take more of a global viewpoint - you have it from three major areas (Middle East, Asia, and Europe) but not from other areas.

The article was declined as an essay - make sure that when you're writing that the style is encyclopedic. Avoid things that come across as a personal point of view, such as "one of the most famous" or "most recognizable". If these are included, make sure that they're properly attributed to the source material.

The sourcing here is fine, however it would definitely be good to find more sourcing that is specific to shipbuilding. This is already covered to some degree in the main article on shipbuilding, but what you need to do is show where the topic is expansive enough to where it should have its own article as opposed to an expanded subsection in the main article. You also need to specify what pages you're pulling the content from, especially when citing something from a book source.

Don't forget to link to articles such as early modern period in your draft so people can have context.

I hope that this helps! Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 14:00, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Global trade in the early modern world (August 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 Bkissin was:

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Timeline of international trade. Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I think this may go better in the larger article about the history of international trade.

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.
