Information icon Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that your recent edit to 1968 NFL/AFL draft did not have an edit summary. Collaboration among editors is fundamental to Wikipedia, and every edit should be explained by a clear edit summary, or by discussion on the talk page. Please use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit or to describe what it changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances that your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits, an adequate summary may be quite brief.

The edit summary field looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

or in the visual editor:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Describe what you changed

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. When logged in to your Wikipedia account, you can give yourself a reminder by setting Preferences → Editing → Editor → Tick Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary (or the default undo summary), and then click the "Save" button. Thanks! S1mply.dogmom (talk) 20:36, 6 May 2026 (UTC)

No improvement since previous decline. If you resubmit again without improvement, the draft will likely be rejected (no option to resubmit). You need to bring in sources and information that establish how Scott is not a WP:RUNOFTHEMILL player.
