Reefscape moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Reefscape. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because you may have a possible Conflict of Interest and not enough WP:SIRS to show notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. UtherSRG (talk) 19:11, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Good afternoon! Thanks for the feedback on the article. I have a few questions on why you moved it to draft.
I was wondering why you think I have a COI with the subject. While I do volunteer for FIRST, I am not a employee of the organization and have no business relationship with them. I was also wondering why the four secondary sources included in the article are not sufficient to determine that the article is notable enough to be published.
Please let me know so I can improve the article or step away from editing if a COI does exist. Rainclaw7 (talk) 19:28, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'll provide COI info below... - UtherSRG (talk) 19:29, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information. I agree that while volunteering might not be a professional connection, it is still a connection that could lead to at minimum a perceived COI. I will step away from editing this draft in accordance with the guidelines and have made the necessary talk page edits. Rainclaw7 (talk) 19:53, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for understanding. - UtherSRG (talk) 19:56, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A kitten for you!

Thank you for posting the pictures on the GMOC page. I wouldn't have known where to find those! While that subject is depressing, a hope a kitten pic can help lift your mood.

Thanks for the kitten Remember! DVIDS really is a useful source for this kind of thing, it's a bit difficult to use but it's generally easier than combing through social media or press releases. Hoping your mood is doing OK, you're right that this is a tough subject. Rainclaw7 (talk) 18:25, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again for your further help on the GMOC! Keep up the great work! Remember (talk) 14:14, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Guantanamo Migrant Operations Center, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Cuban and Haitian.
