Draft:Rotea Gilford

Draft:Rotea Gilford is 100% certain to be declined. HUGE amounts of the content either having little to nothing to do with Gilford, or no connection to why he might be notable (the section about his son). HUGE amounts are unreferenced. There is a lot of puffery/peacocking content: "Gilford was known for overcoming seemingly insurmountable barriers, achieving unprecedented results, and keeping the door open for others to follow." My suggestion is aim to cut the length by half. This is an encyclopedia, not a place for a biography. David notMD (talk) 19:56, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I recommend you continue to remove from the draft all content not directly related to Gilford. The more compactly relevant to Gilford, the better the chances are that a reviewer will accept rather than decline the draft. If declined, comply with the reviewer's comments before resubmitting. Many drafts are accepted after one or two declines, but if a reviewer sees that a draft was resubmitted with only minor changes, that can prejudice the new reviewer against accepting the draft.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Rotea Gilford (August 10)

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

No doubt this is improving, but enumerations of Gilford's Meritorious Awards and many other sections are too much detail and makes for a hagiography rather than an encyclopedia article. Passages like "In 1973, the leadership of the Officers for Justice, now fed up completely with the lack of fairness in employment practices, filed a Federal class-action lawsuit against the San Francisco's Civil Service Commission" and "Just when the mood in San Francisco was at its very lowest ... a ray of hope appeared" are off-topic and should be removed. Furthermore, flowery language is not in the style of Wikipedia and should be replaced.

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:Rotea Gilford 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:Rotea Gilford, 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, 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.
