Hi Liance - thank you for taking the time to review this article. I would like to affirm this article is not about myself. My name is McKenzie Harrison, and I am a writer that is being paid to create this article for Mr. Brewster.
In his early life section, the High Plains Lawyer source discusses Mr. Brewster growing up on a Michigan dairy and crop farm. In the other activities, the reference is an article discussing Clark and Deborah Brewster, his earnings, and his journey getting to the Derby.
Considering these things, can you please advise what I need to do to get this article accepted? ClarkBrewster (talk) 20:42, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
I also went ahead and requested that the user name be changed to reflect my name. Thanks again! ClarkBrewster (talk) 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
 
Hello, ClarkBrewster! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing.

If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! ~Liancetalk 20:32, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
ClarkBrewster Paid editing is allowed per Wikipedia policy but you will need to disclose per Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure or an administrator will block you. I would review that link, follow the instructions closely and request a username change as well if you wish to retain access. I am not an administrator, just an editor here.
I would also closely review WP:NBIO and WP:NJUDGE. There is no guarantee of the article's acceptance unless it meets the aforementioned criteria. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. ~Liancetalk 20:50, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi Liance - thanks for your reply. I did disclose that I am a paid editor when going through the process of setting this up. Are there additional criteria that I have not met? ClarkBrewster (talk) 20:52, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Where did you put the disclosure? ~Liancetalk 20:53, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Initially, it asked if I was a paid writer, and I clicked "yes". Then it had me confirm that I disclosed it. I read the Wikipedia: Paid-contribution disclosure page, and I added the disclosure on my user page. Let me know if there is anything additional. ClarkBrewster (talk) 21:01, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

That should be sufficient. There was a formatting issue so I went ahead and fixed it on your user page. ~Liancetalk 21:02, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Okay great. Should I try resubmitting for review? ClarkBrewster (talk) 21:03, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi Liance - the username has been successfully updated, and we have added that disclosure. Please let me know if you believe there is anything additional I need to edit before resubmitting. Thank you. BDOklahoma24 (talk) 13:21, 29 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi Liance - I wanted to check on this with the updates made. Thank you for your time. BDOklahoma24 (talk) 20:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I am sorry to be persistent, but I am hoping we can get this expedited as Clark represents Stormy Daniels, and we would like this to be up and running during this time. Thanks again. BDOklahoma24 (talk) 20:37, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Liance - we had an individual reach out saying he could publish this for $200. We just noticed it was also published on EverybodyWiki. Was the gentleman that reached out a scam? How does EverybodyWiki have access to the drafts submitted here? BDOklahoma24 (talk) 21:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
No, the fact they are claiming they can get this published is probably a scam - see Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Scam warning for information - and just because they move it to article space doesn't mean it's kept, as such articles are subsequently reviewed and can be deleted. You are going about this in the correct way - and I can commend you for that, and it reduces the risk of things being deleted/removed etc further down the line.
Anyone can take the content from here and publish it elsewhere, and there are numerous other unaffiliated site to the Wikimedia Foundation that do this, particulaly with deleted articles and drafts that require more work. I would say that your draft is one of the better I've seen and hopefully the last few bits can be worked through to get this published. Mdann52 (talk) 16:13, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I greatly appreciate your response. It is helpful! Are there any loose ends that need to be edited further? I made the previous edits from the first review and am hoping we can get this published soon as the hush money trial and Stormy's involvement are big topics right now. Thank you again! BDOklahoma24 (talk) 16:43, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
You still have the claims about the dairy farm and his Tulsa law degree, both of which need to be sourced. I otherwise will not comment further due to this being in a contentious topic. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 21:59, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the feedback on edits to make. Those have been adjusted. Please let me know if there are additional edits I need to make. BDOklahoma24 (talk) 19:39, 11 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 21:54, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
