Your submission at Articles for creation: Nature Recovery (July 24)

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

Neologisms are not considered suitable for Wikipedia unless they receive substantial use and press coverage; this requires strong evidence in independent, reliable, published sources. Links to sites specifically intended to promote the neologism itself do not establish its notability.

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:Nature Recovery and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Hi

Thanks for the really helpful feedback. Nature Recovery is a really importanct concept in the UK environmnetal movement:

It's one of the top 5 enviornmental priorties for the UK Government:

https://www.mills-reeve.com/insights/blogs/food-and-agribusiness/july-2024/labour-sets-out-its-5-priorities-for-the-environme

and is a core part of UL environmental strategy:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nature-recovery-network/nature-recovery-network

https://www.local.gov.uk/pas/environment/nature-recovery-local-authorities

https://consult.defra.gov.uk/nature-recovery-green-paper/nature-recovery-green-paper/

The phrase is also heavily referenced in Academic jounrals:

https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=%22nature+recovery%22&btnG=

and a core part of the UK meeting its 30x30 strategy on the environment.

It is very different from conservation but their is some abiguity in its exact meaning.

So

1. While it is UK centric - it is a very important term and is increasingly being used, inclduing in courses:

https://www.lincoln.ac.uk/course/biconrms/

so I believe it has substantial use and press coverage

2. Its my first article so I can accept the issue is with my writing or trying to pin down one definition ( I can include multiple deifnitions if that helps) or I can focus in the nature recovery networks - do you have any advice.

Thank you for your time and work. I'll try again but will wait to see if you have time to reply first Dubaussi (talk) 09:36, 25 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
