Your submission at Articles for creation: Syl Labrot (January 11)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Nighfidelity were:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Wikipedia guidelines prohibit the use of LLMs to write articles from scratch. In addition, LLM-generated articles usually have multiple quality issues, to include:
Please address these issues. The best way is usually to read reliable sources and summarize them, instead of using a large language model. See our help page on large language models.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Several of the references aren't usable for notability. Additionally, there are signs of AI use across the article. (the OCLC for Under the Sun and Pleasure Beach lead to completely unrelated books)
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 it after they have been resolved.

I will continue to edit. Under the Sun and Pleasure Beach are actually photography books written by Syl Labrot. Don't just the book by the cover (title). Dlabrot (talk) 22:55, 11 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Good morning, I will use Sandbox for the future. I was under the impression I could edit while waiting for approval.
I believe my latest submission is the best because it corrected the timeline and duplicate citations.
Please revert to my last submission.
Thank you. Dlabrot (talk) 17:50, 5 February 2026 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: Syl Labrot (February 12)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Netherzone was:
This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Sourcing still needs improvement, for example, much of the content is sourced to this blog: https://www.rupertjenkins.com/colorado-photo-history-blog/2021/6/4/syl-labrot-1929-1977. You need to find another source. Please find reliable sources WP:RS to back up the content. Secondary sources that are fully independent from the person are best (for example a newspaper obit would be better. I'd also suggest removing the subsections under Career, these appear to possibly be LLM/AI generated, and are not really necessary. The Career section also contains excessive non-essential content. Encyclopedia articles should cover the key points that support his notability, and only the most important aspects of a person's career. Legacy sections normally include things like where a person's archives are held, or things that were named in his honor (like a named-distinguished professorship, or a park, or wing of a building, for example). Please consider moving the content in the Legacy section up to the career section. Once those issues are resolved, I think it will be ready for mainspace. Please resubmit after making these improvements.
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 it after they have been resolved.

Draft declined
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.
Feedback
The reviewer, Helpful Raccoon, left the following feedback:
This draft appears to contain text generated by a large language model (such as ChatGPT). You cannot use LLMs to generate article content.

LLM-generated pages with certain obvious signs of being machine generated may be deleted without notice.

These tools are prone to specific issues that violate our policies:

  • hallucinations: they often invent false information and cite non-existent references.
  • unencyclopedic tone: they tend to be vague, promotional, or essay-like, rather than neutral and factual.
  • copyright issues: they may closely paraphrase existing text, leading to copyright violations.

Instead, only summarize in your own words a range of independent, reliable, published sources that discuss the subject.

See the advice page on large language models for more information.
Please rewrite from scratch without the use of LLMs, this draft is still riddled with AI usage.

Next steps

  • Edit Draft:Syl Labrot to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
  • When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
  • If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it may be deleted.
