Your submission at Articles for creation: Larry Pretlow II (October 31)[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 S0091 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:

Please read Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy thoroughly along with MOS:PEACOCK and WP:PUFFERY. Also read the notability criteria for politicians.

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.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, RobbieLawson. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. S0091 (talk) 00:10, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi S0091, I don't have a personal relationship with the subject and I'm not sure how it appears that way. The draft article submitted for review is not written to boast, promote or advertise anything. I found this subject interesting and believed it to be notable and therefore submitted a draft. I researched and pulled what appeared to meet notability. I learned that this subject has been the center of some issues of notability. I resubmitted the draft. Would appreciate any help with the article. RobbieLawson (talk) 00:36, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the response. If you are struggling with the content, I suggest posting at the Teahouse for some advise. S0091 (talk) 00:53, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
