Your submission at Articles for creation: Credit commons (October 6)

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

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This is written too much like an essay and needs several things. One is an introduction that describes what credit commons is and also gives a basic overview of the article. It could start something like this: "Credit commons is a term coined by Thomas H. Greco, Jr and refers to (definition)". You then need sections that cover information such as the history of credit commons and its reception amongst Greco's peers.

You also need coverage in independent and reliable sources such as academic and scholarly sources. Keep in mind that not every source is reliable and self-published sources (WP:SPS) are typically unreliable since they rarely go through any type of editorial overview or are routinely cited as a reliable source by other reliable sources. I'm a little concerned that much of the sourcing looks to be primary, meaning that it was written by Greco. Also keep in mind that if this isn't widely discussed or covered, this may be too early for this concept to have its own 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.
