Welcome!
Hello, TheHound2019, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:50, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Closed-loop Recycling moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Closed-loop Recycling, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

 * I was a little surprised to see this as a wiki-ed assignment as it appeared to me to be covert advertising as most of the uses of "closed loop recycling" pertain to the company trying to mainstream the name. Also pinging: to let you know I moved it back to draft instead of sending it to AFD. Praxidicae (talk) 17:47, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping,, and thanks for moving it to draft space. I'm not sure about the issue with the topic though - "closed-loop recycling" is a term that's been around a while, and gets more than a few GScholar hits. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 21:00, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you both for looping me in — this was certainly not an attempt at "covert advertising" and closed-loop recycling has been around a while. I'll speak with the student and encourage them to look for better quality sources.WritingTeacherC (talk) 01:57, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm a bit confused about the concern about these sources — of 6 sources, 4 are peer-reviewed scholarly series or journals, one is the EPA, and only one is an industry source. For a starting article, that seems pretty reasonable. WritingTeacherC (talk) 02:05, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
