Your submission at Articles for creation: Landcom (NSW Government) (April 11)

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

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The current article feels as though it could easily be the "about us" page on Landcom's website, rather than a neutral encyclopedia article. I'd suggest rewriting it to be more prose-focused, without external links throughout the article, and taking a more neutral tone. The article also needs independent, reliable sources - almost all of the current sources are from the Landcom website, which isn't a suitable independent source (though can have its place!)

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:Landcom (NSW Government) 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 submission at Articles for creation: Landcom (NSW Government) (July 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 Asilvering 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:

I see you've made some changes following the first review. That's great - keep going. Try to turn lists into prose where possible. You should probably remove the lists under "organizational structure" and "projects" entirely. If something would become dated information if no one ever updated this article iin the next five years, it's probably not something that belongs in an encyclopedia article.

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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Landcom (NSW Government) (August 29)

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

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Editor: this draft is getting there and will probably be accepted eventually but it still has some problems. Quite a few paragraphs (and all the Awards)have zero citations: every statement must be backed up with a citation preferably from a reliable, secondary source. Please read WP:INCITE. I would also cut down the Awards section to just the most prestigious ones.

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.
