Your draft
[edit]The correct place for a draft is Draft:Admiral Nurse, not Talk:Admiral Nurse. A few things for you to look at (as well as the Your first article link above) before you submit it for review:
- There shouldn't be external links in the body text.
- Read about WP:bare urls, & expand them.
- Read WP:Referencing for beginners, including the section about the same section used more than once.
- There should be a "References" section with a {{reflist}} template.
When you think it is ready for review, add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the draft. --David Biddulph (talk) 15:38, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- Don't be discouraged; it is at least a jumping off point. Dave's advice above is good. Formatting and the like comes with practice (the cheatsheet is a handy page to know about). What I'd suggest, though, is that you look at the way you're writing, and think about who you're writing for. Having read your draft, I get the impression that Admiral nursing is great - it's got lots of important-sounding people involved, and they've said some really positive things - but I still have literally no idea what makes it different from ordinary nursing. You're draft reads like something written for the Admiral Nursing website: here's who we are, here's the people involved and why they're important, here's some positive other stuff we've done. What we need is an encyclopedic article: what is Admiral nursing, why does it have that name, what does it entail, how does it differ from other forms or nursing, how did it develop etc? Try to think about the information a lay reader might want to know, rather than the information that Dementia UK would like them to know.
- In other news, I'll email you a copy of your UTRS ticket in a moment. I'll also move your draft to the correct namespace for you; it'll be at Draft:Admiral Nurse in a few moments.
- You might also to investigate the teahouse or the helpdesk, both of which are good places to ask if you're confused about an aspect of Wikipedia's (admittedly arcane) process and policies. Yunshui 雲水 19:05, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Admiral Nurse
[edit]Hello, GRobertsPanda. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Admiral Nurse".
The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply {{db-afc}}
or {{db-g13}}
code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Draft:Admiral Nurse}}
, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 20:41, 19 June 2015 (UTC)
