Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by DoubleGrazing was:
Firstly, please do not REFBOMB; there is no need for multiple citations to support entirely non-contentious statements such as the last sentence, "In 1973, Dit ego times was a joint publication between OnDit, South Australian Institute of Technology’s student newspaper Egois, and Empire Times.[25][26][27][28][29]" Choose the strongest source that supports each statement (and/or that you're already using elsewhere, and/or that you're using to establish notability), and remove the rest.
Do, however, make sure to support all material and potentially contentious statements with reliable sources. Some of these have already been marked with 'citation needed' tags.
Please form your citations correctly, at least the last four (which seem to be citing the same source anyway?) are throwing errors, flagged up clearly in red.
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:Empire Times 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.

Hey @Significa liberdade it seems that the source of the claim is a copy and paste of the Flinders University Wikipedia page. Which parts were removed as I’m unable to compare the histories, I notice a part was removed that has nothing to do with the claim. Cheers GassyTrucker (talk) 01:57, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, GassyTrucker! Thank you for reaching out with your concerns. I do not have access to the material that is now unavailable on the Empire Times wiki page, so I can't tell you exactly what material was removed.
@Significa liberdade @Nthep Letting you guys know that I have briefly rewrote the history section so it should be good. I believe it was only a section in the history area. If it still conflicts with the claim - delete it and let me know. Cheers GassyTrucker (talk) 02:26, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The bit you've reintroduced is the copyvio (see the section "Media" at [1]) I've rewritten it to avoid the copyvio. Nthep (talk) 16:35, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
