Your submission at Articles for creation: Health Data Sovereignty (June 28)

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

Promising draft! The only problem I can find is that the article attempts to walk the user through what Health Data Sovereignty rather than directly getting to the point and explaining. For example in the definition section, the article talk about health, data, sovereignty, then put it all together. See WP:WBA for further information and how you can rewrite parts of the article to fix this.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Health Data Sovereignty and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, 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 draft article, Draft:Health Data Sovereignty

Hello, Sphenodontidan. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Health Data Sovereignty".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 04:25, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Liz. I'll look to resolve the issues with the submitted draft article in February 2025, when I have more capacity. It's good to know it won't be lost completely before then, and that there is a process to "undelete" it :) Sphenodontidan (talk) 04:46, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
