What do I do if my new article gets rejected?

WhiteHatWiki will only accept an assignment for a new article if we are sure it will be accepted. As of early 2018, we had a have a 100% success rate with publication of new articles we determine to be notable because we are so discerning. Some articles have to be resubmitted if more sourcing is requested. We decline about 75% of client requests for assignments. If we think the subject you are proposing is borderline, we will explain this to you, advise you on the reasons why and what you can do going forward.
