I am not sure whether I have submitted my paper for review. It always says that the draft is not yet submitted for review. I am confused
- It is submitted just fine. It will not be accepted in the state it is in at present because the tone is promotional. Please edit it to a "Dull but worthy" tone. Fiddle Faddle 06:56, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

edit
Hello, I have a few questions concerning an edit on a recent draft that I made (still waiting for a review). I replaced one of the article’s sources with an independent source from a national German business newspaper and noted a plainly stated fact about the company, but yet it was tagged in the Revision History as being “Possible self-promotion in userspace”. I’m not sure why adding a more reliable/independent third party source to an article would be flagged like this… should I be concerned, and will this eventually be removed? What could I do to avoid this from reoccurring in the future? Thank you for your help.

- I suspect a gremlin in a filter. Unless it happens often, when there will be some sort of mechanism to report it (Probably at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:AbuseFilter/354 ) just ignore it. I may have missed something, of course. Fiddle Faddle 09:43, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
- Thank you very much for your help, it’s very much appreciated! The Editor is Here (talk) 12:11, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

I created an article in my sandbox and it was approved. I now want to create another one but my previous article is still in my sandbox. What do I do?

- It wasn't in your sandbox; your sandbox was redirecting to the accepted article, as is the norm when a draft is accepted. I've removed the redirect for you. Your sandbox is now free again for you to use. Bellerophon talk to me 20:46, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

I essentially made all the revisions that I felt needed to be made to the Deposit a Gift company page, but I am still having trouble with a couple of things. I am having a difficult time inserting an image into the infobox. In addition, the reviewer told me that each of my sources were unacceptable, which I disagreed with. I thoroughly read through both articles that the reviewer provided me with prior to actually writing the first draft, and I looked at the sources used by competitors as well. I would highly appreciate it if I received a more thorough review this time so that I can make the necessary corrections to ultimately complete an acceptable wiki page. Thank you for your understanding.

Declined with a thorough review. There is much work to be done here, but as you appear to be the CEO you may not be the right person to handle it. Please read WP:COI and make a determination.- Images should be the last thing on your mind. Get the meat right first, the pretties can come later. Fiddle Faddle 09:55, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
