Your submission at Articles for creation: Alzheon (August 20)

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

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:Alzheon and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk or on the reviewer's talk page.

Hello! DHeidtman, I noticed your article was declined at Articles for Creation, and that can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! NgYShung ^huh? 11:43, 20 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Slicksosa, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Hi I am not sure why there is an allegation of sock puppetry by me. I asked a question to the community as encouraged ( see above) after sumbitting an article that was declined. My question was responded to by two community editors that gave me excellent advice. It appears that my same question was posed again to the community by someone else hours after mine. I have a fairly new account < 7 days. I do not have more than one account and I am sure that those checking the facts will determine this is a false allegation. More importantly, you should address who used my comments as their own, Please advise DHeidtman (talk) 16:53, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I originally asked the question at the help desk and apprrently did not enter information about my draft submission. I then submitted the question to the Teahouse where I received my answers as noted. Again, I am not sure why someone would duplicate my question.DHeidtman (talk) 17:02, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reply to your Articles for Creation Help Desk question

Your submission at Articles for creation: Alzheon (August 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 SwisterTwister 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 organizations and companies 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:

I would not resubmit as it's still too soon and there's not yet enough actually suggesting enough substance for notability.

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:Alzheon and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Swister Twister, thanks for your feedback. I thought that the sources used were reliable. Can you offer some guidance as to why they are not? Thanks DHeidtman (talk) 20:01, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

AfC notification: Draft:Alzheon has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Alzheon. Thanks! Worldbruce (talk) 13:55, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Be careful!

Hi DHeidtman. I'm not sure what you were trying to do, but in this edit you ended up deleting a number of other people's questions to the AfC help desk. I have fixed it, but please take care when editing in future! Joe Roe (talk) 18:35, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Joe, My apologies, i am still trying to figure my way around entering questions and responding. Thanks for your thoughtfulness. I thought I was in the section with just my questions and responses to them so I am not sure where/that I deleted other information. I did just update my draft perhaps that was when it happened? Again, apologies. DHeidtman (talk) 20:38, 25 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

References

Remember that when adding content about health, please only use high-quality reliable sources as references. We typically use review articles, major textbooks and position statements of national or international organizations (There are several kinds of sources that discuss health: here is how the community classifies them and uses them). WP:MEDHOW walks you through editing step by step. A list of resources to help edit health content can be found here. The edit box has a built-in citation tool to easily format references based on the PMID or ISBN. We also provide style advice about the structure and content of medicine-related encyclopedia articles. The welcome page is another good place to learn about editing the encyclopedia. If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a note. Jytdog (talk) 18:38, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Jaydog thanks for your feedback, i thought that my reference to the addition from the Journal of Prevention of Alzheimers Disease was a reputable source?DHeidtman (talk) 19:39, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
