Your submission at Articles for creation: Solar engine (June 10)

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

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.

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:

The lede paragraph is not written in the formal neutral tone of an encyclopedia.

Most of this draft contains useful information about the history of solar engines and should be accepted somehow.

More footnotes would be helpful.

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:Solar engine 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:Solar engine, 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.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Solar engine (June 30)

The comment the reviewer left was:

I agree with all that Robert McClenon said on this. There are also, in my opinion, some parts not in the leade that are still not written in a formal tone. Take, for example, this phrase: "owed his salvation to the mathematician Proclus, who by a combination of brazen mirrors set fire to the enemy fleet"

Hi Sam, I have corrected the sentence you think is not aligned with WP rules. FYI, this was a historical citation as said at the beginning of the phrase "according to Zonaras...". I do not understand the reason why a whole article, which is duly documented, is just declined for 1 sentence. Which you can correct in any case. Could you please give more explanations. --Iwoe (talk) 16:06, 30 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Solar engine (June 30)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Robert McClenon was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: This draft has been Rejected by a reviewer in the Articles for Creation review process. DO NOT resubmit this draft or attempt to resubmit this draft or prepare or submit a draft that is substantially the same as this draft without discussing the reasons for the rejection. You may request a discussion with the rejecting reviewer, or you may request a discussion with the community at the Teahouse. A discussion will not necessarily agree to a resubmission.

It should be noted that the reviewer has not decided that the topic is not notable. An article on the topic may be accepted in the future. However, there is no reason to think that this draft will become an article, and there is evidence that this draft will never become an article. If there is to be an article on this topic, this draft must first be blown up and started over.

If this draft is resubmitted without discussion and without starting it over, or if an attempt is made to resubmit this draft or an equivalent draft, without addressing the reasons for the Rejection by starting over, a partial block or a topic-ban may be requested against the submitting editor.

You may ask for advice about Rejection at the Teahouse.

This draft was declined for tone reasons on 30 June 2020. Changes were made to specific points that were cited by example by reviewers User:Sam-2727 and User:Robert McClenon, and the draft was resubmitted approximately 45 minutes after being declined. The reviewers had taken issue with those points, but the reviewers had said that the draft should be reworked. At this point, the rapid resubmissions are wasting the time of the submitter and the time of the reviewers, as well as annoying the reviewers.

Discuss this with the reviewers and the community rather than making quick changes and resubmitting. The reviewers suggested that a revised title, such as "History of Solar Power", might be in order. Discussion is definitely in order, either at the Teahouse or at a WikiProject.

The topic probably is notable, but the resubmissions are not getting closer to an acceptable article.

If this draft is resubmitted without discussion, it may be nominated for deletion, and a topic-ban may be requested.
