Shekatkar draft
I saw that you were asking on IRC channel #wikipedia-en-help about why your draft has not been published. The first problem is that you never submitted it for review. I've added an articles for creation template that will make it a bit easier for you to submit it when it's ready. Don't click on that submit button yet! Your draft is seriously lacking in several dimensions. First, it is essentially hagiography, written to praise its subject rather than to objectively give their biography. Second, it is seriously lacking in sources – inline citations are required for essentially every statement you make about Shekatkar. I think it's likely that you can show Shekatkar is notable, but I haven't personally gone through every reference to verify that they are sufficient for this purpose.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 23:50, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
