Hi. I removed your additions to this article because they are unsourced. Do note that material on Wikipedia should be sourced and this is especially true for historical material (because sources will definitely exist). Feel free to add the material back with a source but do make sure that the source satisfies our reliable source criteria. For historical sources, you should also read WP:HISTRS.

Hi RegentsPark,
Thank you for highlighting the need for citations and references. I am new to Wikipedia, though I have always been a curious academic, I've only written subjective pieces before.
I'll make sure to remember this in the future, thanks again!
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Sophisticatedevening was:
We're sorry, but we cannot accept blank submissions. If in fact you did include text within the article, but it isn't showing, please make sure that any extra text above your entry is removed, as it may be causing it to hide and not be shown to the reviewer.
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:Bhavna Rai 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.
Hope you're well. I've just seen this response saying "we cannot accept blank submissions." If you can, please do let me know what the specific issue is as I am eager to figure it out.
My draft starts with:
{{AFC submission|d|nn|u=Drewshahsa|ns=118|decliner=Spinster300|declinets=20250409064204|ts=20250409002605}} <!-- Do not remove this line! -->
{{AFC submission|d|blank|u=Drewshahsa|ns=118|decliner=Sophisticatedevening|declinets=20250406001326|small=yes|ts=20250405235643}} <!-- Do not remove this line! -->
{{Short description|Author (born 1973)}}
{{Draft topics|biography|literature|south-asia}}
{{AfC topic|blp}}
<!-- Important, do not remove anything above this line before article has been created. -->
I'm not sure if there is anything which needs to be deleted
After all of that, there is the infobox.
Please do get back to me at your earliest convenience and thank you for the time you have spent reviewing my and other drafts.
I declined the draft for being blank as the version that I reviewed [1] did not contain only contained a hatnote and a tiny portion of a broken infobox. Feel free to resubmit if you have addressed the issues provided by Spinster, and another reviewer will take a look at it. Sophisticatedevening🍷(talk)13:47, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Spinster300 was:
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 passing mentions about the subject)
Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
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:Bhavna Rai 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.
I appreciate your feedback and the time you took to review my article.
I have cited Barnes & Noble, Good Reads, and a well-known Indian author/critic reviewing Bhavna's work, alongside a few other references too.
I feel as though my choice of references shows depth, reliability and independent perspectives. I would really appreciate some more information as to why this is not adequate for my article.
Do get back to me at your earliest convenience. Thank you again.
