    Drafts are not allowed to be filed in categories. Categories may be added to the page only if and when it's actually in mainspace as a real article, and are not allowed to be in categories while they're in draft, per WP:DRAFTNOCAT. Additionally, even if and when it is in mainspace, it can only be in categories that exist, and cannot be in categories that do not exist, so categories that are redlinks still won't be allowed even then.

    But again, the reason the categories keep "disappearing" from the page is because drafts aren't allowed to be in categories. Bearcat (talk) 14:11, 25 February 2025 (UTC)

    File:AFC-Logo_Decline.svgYour recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by JSFarman was:

    {{divbox|gray|3=This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.|}} The comment the reviewer left was:

    {{divbox|blue|3=Please read the guidance on NPOV.}} 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.
