What's wrong with it is that it is an advert. We don't accept pages that are clearly advertisements. Please do not blank the page again; it'll get you in trouble. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 07:06, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

When my article was accepted it bore a title with a (1) at the end. I'm not sure how I did that but I would desire the article to be listed simply as Progressive Primitive Baptists and not Progressive Primitive Baptists (1). Is there a way to change that?

Davsum (talk · contribs), that was an oversight by the approver, thanks for pointing that out! The issue is fixed, and I've also fixed a few format issues like adding categories, WP:Wikilinks, etc. If there is any logo for this organisation, please add an image per WP:Fair use. If you have trouble adding an image, please post at WP:Teahouse to get formatting help from mentors. Thanks for your addition to our coverage of Baptist denominations!

I'm definitely new at this. Can you please check this page and see if I am ready to publish. I want to link other neurological terms etc. but the gist of it is there.

Dr.Southland, this draft is written in an unacceptably promotional style, with quite extravagant claims but frankly, it's not worth fixing. I'm afraid it is way too soon for an article on an untried and as yet unpatented therapy for which there are no reliable independent sources attesting to its notability. There is an impressive list of scholarly articles attached, but I would venture to say that none of them mention this specific therapy, e.g.
Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL
There is nothing about it on Google Scholar or Google Books. Nor on PubMed [1]. The only mentions of it on the web (30 in total) are to websites and social media connected to the company which is behind this therapy and seeking "sponsors" to develop it. It's worth having a look again at our notability guidelines. You also need to be aware that subjects on medical and health related topics are subject to very strict sourcing guidelines which you can read about at Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine). – Voceditenore (talk) 18:01, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

I'm wondering why the article submission for Seth Michelson was rejected.

Thanks for any info/help!

Your sourcing is atrocious. We do not accept wikis (including Wikipedia), the subject themselves, or blogs as sources for biographies. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 20:47, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Your reply is atrocious, Jeremy. Please be polite and welcoming to newcomers, who will often have no idea whatsoever of what sources are acceptable, and I would also note that The New York Times does blogs, which can be in circumstances perfectly acceptable for BLPs. Thankyou. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 23:00, 28 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
