This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article.

Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This is not how to write encyclopaedic articles. Check other Wikipedia pages for guideline. Best,

Your submission at Articles for creation: George Buchanan (journalist) (April 23)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by NP83 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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:George Buchanan (journalist) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Copyvios

Hello, as mentioned at the AfC help desk, it would seem that Draft:George Buchanan (journalist) contains some copyright violations in the form of copypastes and/or close paraphrasing of three external sources. You can see the violations highlighted in red here, here and here. Normally I would go ahead and delete the offending passages, and the request that they are permanently hidden from the public record (a process known as 'revision deletion'); however, you may find this confusing as entire sections will potentially go missing. Therefore I would like to request that you yourself edit the draft to remove all the highlighted content (with the exception of proper nouns, publication titles, direct quotations, etc., of course), and replace with your own words. Once you have done this, please let me know, and I will then recheck the draft, and request revision deletion. Any questions or comments, let me know. Thanks, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:15, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: George Buchanan (journalist) (November 7)

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

A statement like ..the writer as revolutionary and anticipator. does nothing but promotes the subject. Also, we need more 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.
