Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (July 16) edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

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

The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Symphony No. 9 (Beethoven). Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

But only merge the sourced information, and not as an essay

Julu 2021: Sandbox edit

Latest comment: 2 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

My impression of your sandbox essay is that it is a work of music criticism and more suited to either academic writing or as a review/essay. Most encyclopedias are deliberately dry in their writing style, and attempt to convey basic facts in order to quickly endow the reader with basic information. Not all Wikipedia articles achieve our standards, that's for sure, but we aspire to have them do so eventually.--Quisqualis (talk) 01:55, 17 July 2021 (UTC)Reply
