Your submission at Articles for creation: 2024 California Proposition 36 (September 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by S0091 were:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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:

All of the editorials are the same article/opinion published by various outlets so is one source and is a primary sources thus should be used very carefully to maintain a neutral point of view and is not useful for notability nor are government sites. Ballotpedia is not a reliable source outside of very basic facts.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:2024 California Proposition 36 and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Harlan County, Kentucky, you may be blocked from editing. Blanking your warning does not change anything. The source you have now added does not adequately support your first claim, and the second claim is still unsourced. Take this to the talk page. Meters (talk) 21:12, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you would like to look at the talk page, be my guest. Your willful lack of understanding does not make me incorrect, but I made sure to add many, many, many references for your viewing pleasure. 141.154.49.21 (talk) 23:31, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Harlan County, Kentucky. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Meters (talk) 21:13, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You have made several improperly sourced or even incorrect claims. Your third try was slightly better, but at this point you need to discuss this material. Per WP:BRD you should have done this the first time you were undone. Twice you made unsourced claims about Harlan Count "Like the rest of Eastern Kentucky" when there was no data for the rest of Eastern Kentucky. You then changed it to "much like the rest of rural Kentucky" with a source that did not compare Harlan County to all of rural Kentucky. And twice you made the claim that in 2020 "Trump [had] the highest margin any candidate has received in history over Democratic nominee Joe Biden." 2020 was the only time Trump and Biden have run against each other, there is no data in the table for any other county, and the Republican margin over the Democrats actually decreased in 2020. The third time you changed the claim to "Trump [having] the best result (85.38%) any candidate has ever received." Meters (talk) 21:56, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not a single county page sources its political overviews, as I made clear in that talk page. If you are willing to wipe "like the rest of eastern Kentucky" out, the same decision must be made for literally any form of political analysis on all 3000+ county pages, since all are unsourced. 141.154.49.21 (talk) 00:39, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you make personal attacks on other people, as you did at Talk:Harlan County, Kentucky. Comment on content, not on fellow editors. Meters (talk) 00:02, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Personal attack" is a haaard stretch bud, since not once did I mention you, disparage you, or make any comment referring to any specific individual. Calm down. 141.154.49.21 (talk) 00:38, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Communication is required

If you want content included and others disagree the WP:onus is on you start a discussion on the article's talk page to gain WP:consensus. Continuing you restore your preferred version will lead to you being blocked (you meaning person, regardless is you use account or an IP). S0091 (talk) 21:24, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
