Your submission at Articles for creation: Association of Independent Colleges and Universities of Pennsylvania (December 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 DoubleGrazing was:

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 brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of 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.

The comment the reviewer left was:

We need to see significant coverage, directly of the association itself, in multiple independent and reliable secondary sources.

Managing a conflict of interest[edit]

Hello, PA4C101. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Draft:Association of Independent Colleges and Universities of Pennsylvania, 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, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} 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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Association of Independent Colleges and Universities of Pennsylvania (January 28)[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 Ca was:

This draft needs a major rewrite. Nearly none of the sources I see are independent from AICUP. They are all created by people affiliated with AICUP, the member univerties' news and blogs, and the AICUP's own reports. I recommend starting over, but this time, basing the draft on independent sources.

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.

Ready to publish (AICUP)[edit]

Nearly of the citations are from independent sources (news outlets, the state senate, the Department of Education). Please see that nearly none of the citations are from the AICUP website, except to cite the names of their members.

The example the last editor suggested I follow (for a Massachusetts organization) has only 4 citations, I listed over 30.

This article meets all of Wikipedia's requirements, and meets all of the requirements from the previous editors since November.

Sad to see this continues to get sent back for no valid reason.

Thanks for considering the many merits I submitted and resubmitted multiple times.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Association of Independent Colleges and Universities of Pennsylvania (February 9)[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 Theroadislong was:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Just blatant advertising.
