Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Mike Davis (artist), from its old location at User:Rev. Lady Cobra/sandbox. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. UnitedStatesian (talk) 20:09, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for the review and information. I have tried to simplify the Mike Davis Draft in hopes of publishing eventually. I also have other reliable references I am going to add or replace in the coming weeks that I think will be satisfactory to WIKI.

I have reviewed other American Artist wiki pages with significantly less exhibits and / or book references than artist Mike Davis so I was a little surprised my article was rejected. Of course, I would love further help if you are able to assist as I am a newbie and there is so much to learn. Rev. Lady Cobra (talk) 03:11, 24 March 2021 (UTC)


 * The draft wasn't rejected (an option that I could have taken but didn't), it was declined. Ask yourself if reliable, independent material that goes into Davis or his work in depth exists. If it doesn't, then stop: this will be hopeless. If it does exist, summarize what you can learn from it. Provide a reference for every exhibition you list. (No reference? Then skip the exhibition.) Put what remain into oldest-to-newest order. (The lists are currently reversed.) That "His work can be found in the permanent collection of the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art" is a major claim; it definitely needs a reference. (In principle, every other claim needs an independent reference too; but when it comes to things like where he lived as a child, we'll take his word for it.) Happy editing! -- Hoary (talk) 03:27, 24 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Thank you very much, again. I will take it all into account and work hard to make it more than satisfactory. --Rev. Lady Cobra (talk) 18:19, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
