The main problem was that the contents you were adding to the article were copied from an outside source: [1]. Since you are the author of the text, the contribution wasn't actually a copyright violation. (On the other hand, it needs to be verified that the text is indeed under a free license; see these instructions for more information.) For now, I am going to restore your revision of the article and mark it for cleanup; it reads somewhat like an a personal recollection, rather than an encyclopedic article. (The protection of the article only lasted for an hour, so it has already expired.) - Mike Rosoft (talk) 08:12, 19 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: George G. Hunter, III (February 22)

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

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's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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 User:GLMcIntosh/George G. Hunter, III 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 User:GLMcIntosh/George G. Hunter, III, 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.
