April 2020

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Jack Ives, from its old location at User:Hortonio/Jack Ives. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Jack Ives (April 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 DGG was:

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Hes notable, but the article is a tribute, not an objective encyclopedia article.

The fist step is to remove the 2nd paragraph of the introduction--almost everything there of value is described in the appropriate section below.

The 2nd step is to remove every adjectives, and all phrases of excellence--his work speaks for itself.

The third is to greatly shorten the description of conferences and publications: just indicate what they are, don't include peripheral material about who else attended, who who gave an award, Don't list the books twice. DGG ( talk ) 04:50, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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:Jack Ives and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Jack Ives, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

Thanks, DGG!

I'll try to figure out what is required to upgrade the Jack Ives article as quickly as possible. Question: how can I get the name changed to Jack D. Ives instead of Jack Ives? Hortonio (talk) 13:17, 20 April 2020 (UTC)HortonioHortonio (talk) 13:17, 20 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
