Your contributions
Hi. You've submitted an article for review. That's one thing. But making copies of it about the site and tagging them as published is quite another; self-publication is a very serious violation of policy here. I've treated the extra copies as spam, and speedy-deleted them. We're not a web host. If the article achieves publication, it earns a permanent place in our archives; if it doesn't achieve publication, hopefully you'll learn from the experience and will be able to achieve publication with a future submission. --Pi zero (talk) 21:12, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Ok - I apologize. I was testing. Won't happen again.—Aaronnpa888 (talk) 21:37, 17 October 2013 (UTC)


 * No problem. We have a steep initial learning curve, and we really do want to try to help folks up it.


 * I reviewed the article, btw, assessing it not-ready for publication in its current form, with a bunch of review comments to help things along. --Pi zero (talk) 22:20, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I assessed this not-ready for publication in its current form. It raises some fairly deep issues about article construction, and I've tried to leave detailed review comments on the article talk page. See also my. --Pi zero (talk) 06:16, 15 November 2013 (UTC)


 * You've been doing some thoughtful work with the article, exploring (as I would describe it) possible approaches. Along the way you've also asked some interesting questions about how we process articles.
 * One question you asked was, how to delete an article and start over. Generally, if an article has been sitting in a 'develop' state with no work on it for four days, it's tagged with a two-day warning, and after those additional two days it is deleted.  We're sometimes slow in those tasks (tagging and deleting), but we do get to them even if we're a bit late, and ultimately that's what happens to most articles that fail to achieve publication.
 * Another excellent question was, how to hang on to the review comments about a failed article after it gets deleted. When I first arrived here, several years ago, that was a problem we were discussing, and we're still discussing it now.  Although the article talk pages of abandoned articles get deleted, it seems like it'd be useful to have some sort of running archive of review comments, possibly indexed both by reporter and by reviewer, with a convenient way to access statistics, summary, and details.  A tall order; but, as I say, something we're now thinking about.
