Your submission at Articles for creation: Philippe Léveillé (May 9)

Draft declined

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.

Feedback

The reviewer, Avgeekamfot, left the following feedback:

This draft reads like an advertisement. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a platform for promotion or marketing. Drafts that are exclusively promotional may be deleted without notice.

Wikipedia articles must be written neutrally in a formal, impersonal, and dispassionate way. They should not read like a blog post, advertisement, or fan page. Rewrite the draft to remove:

promotional language: see Words to watch;
personal commentary: opinions or direct addresses to the reader;
informal language.

Instead, only summarize in your own words a range of independent, reliable, published sources that discuss the subject.

If you have a conflict of interest (e.g. you are the subject, an employee, or a relative) or are being paid to edit, you must disclose this to comply with Wikipedia's Terms of Use.

Smells like SPA/COI.

Next steps

Edit Draft:Philippe Léveillé to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.

Dear Avgeekamfot,

Thank you very much for reviewing the draft so quickly! I would like to clarify that I am not being paid to create or edit this draft, and I have no professional, financial, family, or organizational relationship with Philippe Léveillé, his restaurant, or anyone connected with him.

I should also disclose that I have a personal admiration for Léveillé as a chef, which may have affected the tone of the initial draft. For this reason, I have revised the draft substantially by removing promotional language and basing the article more strictly on published sources. I have also kept the awards in a dedicated section, without emphasizing them in the language of the article.

For transparency, I have edited Wikipedia many times in the past under another account, but I currently do not have access to it. I am not using multiple accounts to mislead other editors or evade scrutiny. If necessary, I am also willing to disclose my real-life identity. I remain available to revise the draft further if you consider it necessary.

Best regards, and thank you again,

Good enough for me. I went ahead and published, could probably use some pruning but the standard for AfC is whether it would survive AfD and I think this would. Avgeekamfot (talk) 17:07, 10 May 2026 (UTC)
