I am still awaiting a re-review of this article and am wondering what the delay is? Also, I am not sure why such a fact based article was rejected initially.

Hello,

I just wanted to follow up on my submissions and see the status of two profiles that I submitted and wanted to know why one was declined.

Looking forward to your response

@DaniFernn: Both Draft:Tony Gonzalez and Draft:Rock the Moon Productions was rejected for the reasons stated in the pink box on the article. Note that Wikipedia only accepts encyclopedia articles on WP:N notable entities. Wikipedia is not a social network, and therefore doesn't accept "profiles". --Ahecht (TALK

Hello! I've submitted a page to be reviewed and I see this message in the submission box: Warning: This page should probably be moved, but a page already exists at Draft:Sandbox. I tried to type the article title in the box below this text but they say I am not allowed to do so. So my question is whether my page is submitted the way it should be to the reviewer(s)?

@Flower244:  Done. I moved your draft to Draft:Go Live. --Ahecht (TALK

I did a major revision on the Jan Kmenta Wikipedia page and since it is my first work on Wikipedia I submitted it for review. I now realize that the review is just for new pages, which this is not. I suppose I could just paste my new Jan Kmenta page in to replace the old one (I built the old one into the new one and expanded it) but that seems kind of arrogant for a new contributor. What should I do?

You should understand WP:BOLD, consider whether you need to build a consensus for your potential edits on the article talk page, and move forward from there. Please do not submit your desired changes for review, though. They will be declined with the advice to edit the real article. Fiddle Faddle 21:38, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
