Lede

[edit]

I made an attempted start at the lede, but I'm not pleased with it. I'd be happy if anyone has any ideas on ways to improve it; feel free to implement them yourself, or share the idea with me and I'll give it a try. EducatedRedneck (talk) 15:16, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I endeavored to refine and elevate its quality to a certain extent. --94.255.152.53 (talk) 09:12, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

@AlphaBetaGamma: I just remove the text that you suggested from Alcohol (drug) so it can be merge to this draft. However, rather than engaging in speculation, it would have been more constructive if you directly address and remove the specific issues or clearly highlight every single one of them, can you please do that? Also, content for all sections in this article has just been merged from Alcohol (drug) and no one complained about them. --94.255.152.53 (talk) 17:39, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Mathnerd314159, EducatedRedneck, and Boghog: Could you help me provide context for the reviewers? I'm currently managing all the work on this draft. --94.255.152.53 (talk) 17:39, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this draft does have problems. The AfC queue is more than a thousand articles and the reviewers don't have time to fix every article. As far as content being merged from Alcohol (drug), a lot of it has been stuff you've added. I haven't complained about them because it seems like you rewrite them 5 days later. It is the same problem with the draft, every time I check, it has 20 more edits from you and I don't know whether I should try to fix something or if you have further work to do. Either say it is ready for submission and stop editing, in which case I will see if I can bring it up to par, or don't submit it because you have further work to do.

I second this. A lot of the material that's been added seems to me to be unnecessary; a link to a relevant article would serve better than a copy-pasted repetition, and quite a bit of it may be WP:UNDUE. Once the draft is stable, I'll be happy to go through and start doing some editing. EducatedRedneck (talk) 14:24, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
