Hey, I've been trying to get help through teahouse and other places to improve my article draft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:John_Garcia_Gensel I have done my best to change the tone of the article, but would appreciate specific advise on any needed changes so I can have it accepted. I don't want to waste editor time by resubmitting it if there are obvious flaws that will bring to another rejection. Thank you בילי (talk) 22:03, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any serious issues with this draft. Onel5969 may want to comment on what they saw as problematic. Huon (talk) 07:33, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Huon - This editor has left requests at several places, and been answered by several editors. I left my response on the talk page of his draft, and am now backing away from this article. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:45, 11 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
