@Fairywizard21: Hello! Can you explain your question in greater detail here? We'd like to help you if we can, but we need to know what your question is first. Thanks, /wia /talk 10:51, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Wikiisawesome: So sorry for later reply, didn't get a notification of your response. The draft is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_talk:Meg_John_Barker. The reviewers say "The problem with your submission is that it's a biography of a living person, and sexuality related articles can be controversial topics. Therefore the requirements of writing and sourcing are stricter than for other articles, which is why it was pulled back to draft space. From a cursory look through the sources, they don't seem to be directly about Dr. Barker as their prime subject material; I'd personally want to see more sources specifically accrediting her academic qualifications." It sounds like they wanted the focus on sources 'accrediting academic material' whereas I had assumed they were more interested in external sources (news reports etc) that showed Meg John was well known. Do you think they just want links to more of their papers, books, keynote presentations etc? Thanks for your help, Louisa
