Your submission at Articles for creation: The Steady State (May 13)

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:
- in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
- reliable
- secondary
- strictly independent of the subject
This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.
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.

- Thank you for the review, but I must confess I do not understand the reasoning. The references are, with only a few exceptions, "in-depth," and all are reliable, secondary, and with the exception of our own website, independent. An organization with a membership of nearly 300 members, most of whom are former US Government senior officials of note, and which has been quoted and quoted about in major media, is a formally incorporated non-profit organization, and engaged with an array of journalists, seems to merit a Wikipedia article.

- I now see that the article appears to have been rejected as it is not of significant interest. I ask that you reconsider. It would be helpful if you could explain why this is not significant. StevenACash (talk) 10:30, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
- I am hoping for a reply to my communications. I understand. you are probably a bit busy, and if you do not plan on replying, please just let me know in a brief message. StevenACash (talk) 18:03, 21 June 2025 (UTC)
- I am writing again, in hopes you will reply. I am puzzled by your assertion that The Steady State, as an organization is "not significant," and concerned that you have not responded to my communications. I assume that you are familiar with the United States Intelligence Community, its Homeland Security Commmunity, and its Diplomatic Communities, and understand its role in US Domestic Politics, and perhaps your studies of our system have led you to conclude that the organization is not significant. I would very much welcome the oppotrunity to engage with you on this subject. StevenACash (talk) 14:53, 8 July 2025 (UTC)
Your submission at Articles for creation: The Steady State (July 9)

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:
The comment the reviewer left was:
- in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
- reliable
- secondary
- strictly independent of the subject
Almost all the sources are what those affiliated with The Steady State have said or written which are primary sources and not independent. Also, Google Docs is not a reliable source nor are blogs (even if published by NBC, etc.) so should not be used.

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Steady State (September 19)

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.
The comment the reviewer left was:
Subject may be notable, but its sourcing is extremely inconsistent. The issues pointed by S0091 largely remain the same. Ironically, the section with the most references have little to nothing to do with the organization itself. You should use mostly secondary sources that are substantial, independent and reliable.
