Your submission at Articles for creation: Harry Stafylakis (December 1)

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

Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Wikipedia guidelines prohibit the use of LLMs to write articles from scratch. In addition, LLM-generated articles usually have multiple quality issues, to 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.

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:Harry Stafylakis 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! Thank you for reviewing my draft so quickly. I appreciate the work you do.

I am not sure where specifically you see potential use of an LLM, but I can assure you that since I started making edits in the hopes of getting this draft accepted, I have manually typed every word and added every references.

This draft was written by a different author than myself and was denied for lack of credible sources in August. Since then, I have added a handful of references and included only small changes to the body of the article itself.

I am curious if somehow the minimal additions I have made appear to be written by an LLM, or if the original body of the article does. If the latter is the case, the first reviewer who denied the article did not mention that.

I am open to making any necessary changes, but I honestly don't know where to start, and do not want to start hacking away blindly!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The original body of the article is definitely generated by AI, so that's why I declined it. —pythoncoder (talk | contribs) 18:00, 9 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
