Your submission at Articles for creation: Dan Niles (June 18)

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

This feels like a resume, not a neutral article

Current revision of Niles

The simple things you've changed have already improved it. I will leave it for others to review. If declined again I will be happy to offer advice, assuming I am both available and able to, and, of course, if you ask me to. I wish you the best of luck. Creating an article at all for the first time is like trying to learn to ride a motorcycle while facing backwards and wearing a blindfold. Writing a biography adds earplugs to the ensemble and moves the venue to be near a precipice. Fiddle Faddle 21:56, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Removed citation to Public APPL short made by the investor himself due to credibility issues with Twitter according to TImetrent. Hedge Funds are highly regulated, so any announcement such as that has to get cleared by regulatory compliance first, but given this is not universal knowledge, I removed it" is interesting. I had not realised the thing that you say is not common knowledge. Now if you can cite in WP:RS that this removal was seen and perhaps censured, that is a salient fact for the article. Perhaps after acceptance though. Fiddle Faddle 22:00, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Dan Niles (September 14)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

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:

I understand why you think your subject should be exempt from the rule against primary sources and interviews, but the simple fact is- he's not. WP has guidelines about sources for a reason. Please review WP:RS and make the required changes to your sources before re-submitting. Also- please rewrite to make this sound less like a resume or publicity release. To be clear- I have an MBA... I understand the "arcane" as you put it nature of hedge funds. There is no need to make an exception to allow primary sources just because he deals in hedge funds- There are secondary sources that exist and are perfectly fine for explaining/proving notability. If the articles on hedge funds themselves can do so.... so can this article.

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.

Changed it to only leave everything that is by definition factual. Hopefully someone else will help get this published as I really don't know what I am doing at this point.
