The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft has one or more reference errors, which indicate errors in the formatting or use of the references. The reference errors should be corrected before resubmitting this draft. If this draft is resubmitted without correcting the reference errors, it will be Rejected, and it may be nominated for deletion, or a topic-ban may be requested against the submitter.

The subject probably satisfies biographical notability, but this draft is difficult to read and review and needs to be organized properly.

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

When this draft was reviewed a week ago, it was noted that it does not have a proper lede section. It still does not begin with a lede sentence introducing the subject.

Portions of this draft, including the Legacy section, read like an obituary or tribute that have been written to praise the subject. In Wikipedia, if reliable sources have praised the subject, quote them rather than praising the subject in the voice of Wikipedia.

The subject almost certainly satisfies biographical notability. Rework and resubmit (but do not resubmit without reworking).

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.

This still reads like a hagiography, especially with the headers being like chapter titles in a book.

Thank you for your submission, but the subject of this article already exists in Wikipedia. You can find it and improve it at Reuben H. Markham instead.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This draft is either essentially the same as the article with the same name, or a subset of the article with the same name. The draft will be replaced by a redirect from draft space to the article.
