A previous version of an article on this person was deleted following a deletion discussion. This draft should, in my opinion, only be accepted if the judgment of the reviewer is that it provides more evidence of notability than the deleted version did.

Waltersobczak (talk) 20:05, 23 September 2016 (UTC) the reason why my article was rejected is not clear. those are valid url's and i am adding new citations, as i was initally instructed to. there are almost 20 citations with many of the subject covered by other wikipedia articles. what does "test edit" mean?[reply]

The draft in question is Draft:Walter Sobczak. There are two problems. The first problem is a conflict of interest, which is that you, Walter Sobczak, are trying to write about yourself, Walter Sobczak. Read the conflict of interest guideline and the autobiography guideline. The second problem is that the content was a copyright violation. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. In particular, while you argue that the page should not be deleted as a copyright violation because you own the copyright, that is not enough for Wikipedia. We require that copyrighted material be unconditionally released under a CC-BY-SA copyleft, not merely approved for promotional use in Wikipedia. Most copyright owners do not want to grant an unconditional copyleft release. Also, most copyrighted material that is on web sites is not neutral anyway.

By the way, I think that the reviewer, User:KGirlTrucker81, made a mistake in declining your submission as a test edit, but that was not a major mistake, only a matter of declining using the wrong code. I would have declined it as promotional and conflict of interest (since I wouldn't have noticed the copyright violation, which was detected by one of our helpful bots).

Hello! I re-submitted this article on 24 Aug 16 in a much improved version (smiley face), and of course am waiting with bated breath for review. I noticed that my original reviewer, who declined the article, is on sort of a "leave" from wiki, so wonder if there is anything I can legitimately do to help the article along. Thank you all so much. Riknavpdx (talk) Riknavpdx (talk) 20:14, 23 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You could make it clear, in the first sentence, what the article is about. "Paradigm" tells the reader very little. Maproom (talk) 20:11, 29 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
