05:38:22, 18 October 2015 review of submission by IJBall

[edit]


This draft, which I have been working on, was just submitted for AfC review by an IP editor. I feel like nothing has changed since this draft was last rejected by AfC several months back (i.e. the BLP of the article in question is still just short of notability under WP:NACTOR), and I would like to withdraw or suspend this submission – how can I do that? (Or can I even do that to a submission for AfC review from another editor?...) Thanks in advance.

@IJBall: You could revert their submission by removing the {{AFC submission ...}} template from the draft, but that would be a very unusual thing to do. They have every right to submit the draft. I recommend letting the process run its course. You can continue to improve the draft while waiting for a reviewer to get to it. If it's declined then you're no worse off than when you started.

Yeah, it's just that's nothing has really changed on this one since the last submission. If this kid ever gets a semi-decent movie role, then I think he'll pass WP:NACTOR, and the draft will be approved and moved to mainspace. But I'm pretty sure whoever reviews this for AfC this time which just decline again, so it's kind of a waste of an AfC reviewer's time, that's all... --IJBall (contribstalk) 07:53, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
no Declined as predicted, but more to clear the pool of drafts requiring review. I agree that he fails notability at present. Fiddle Faddle 19:34, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
