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

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This is written too much like an argumentative essay, with essay-like phrases such as "In this article, we refer to the Gungu...", and empty descriptions/narrative-like claims such as "they have their unique customs and traditions" (which ethnic group in the world doesn't?), "support the Bagungu community in their struggle" (too subjective), "Plans to install the Bugungu cultural leader are still ongoing" (how?). Please rewrite the article so it'll look more like an encyclopedic entry. Consider using existing articles on other ethnicity for reference on how it can be achieved.

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 after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Bagungu and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 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.

Hello, Leynsta. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Bagungu".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗plicit 00:14, 18 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
