Good language learner studies

Hi there, and thanks very much for your edit! I think it's a great contribution, and I intend to copy edit it so that it flows more smoothly with the existing article (maybe tomorrow, when I have time). I thought I should just let you know about Wikipedia's rules on conflict of interest, and in particular, citing yourself. But that's mainly for people who use Wikipedia to promote themselves - I don't think it applies in your case. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me, and I shall do my very best to help. Thanks! — Mr. Stradivarius ^♫ 15:26, 6 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed the formatting of the contribution you made, if you want to take a look. All the best. — Mr. Stradivarius ^♫ 14:40, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Diane Larsen-Freeman (December 14)

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

This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft has no references. This draft has a non-neutral tone and appears to be written to praise its subject.

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 Draft:Diane Larsen-Freeman and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Diane Larsen-Freeman

Dear Wikipedia

Last December I submitted an item on Diane Larsen-Freeman, a very well known figure in Applied Linguistics. It was returned for editing, which I did, and returned it, still in December. Since then I have heard nothing, and I have been unable to contact Robert McClennon/Fuortu. What should I do?
