Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Jcgaylor was:

Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Their outputs usually have multiple issues that prevent them from meeting our guidelines on writing articles. These include:

• Promotional tone, editorializing and other words to watch
• Vague, generic, and speculative statements extrapolated from similar subjects
• Essay-like writing
• Hallucinations (plausible-sounding, but false information) and non-existent references
• Close paraphrasing
  

Please address these issues. The best way is usually to read reliable sources and summarize them, instead of using a large language model. See our help page on large language models.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Large sections of the article, particularly in the beginning, return a high likelihood of being AI generated.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:3rd Indiana Volunteers (Mexican-American War) and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, none of this section was AI generated. Some of it was borrowed from the 1st Indiana Volunteers and the 5th Indiana Volunteers which I have contributed to both pages before I had an account on here. The entire page had been edited by me and hand typed with citations before I submitted it. So I do not know why you are accusing me of using ChatGPT or AI, but this is not the case. I have contributed many new pages to Wikipedia including: Henning Von Minden, Alfred Bruce Brackett, and Asgrim Knutson Skaro among many others if you'd like to look at those for example of my writing style, but I have never used AI to create any of these pages. If you could please reconsider this course of action that would be great as I would like to have the article approved so that people can know abut Indiana's service during the Mexican-American War.
