External links

I removed the external links as per the Wikipedia Manual of Style for External Links. Specifically, under the section of links to avoid are links to search engine and aggregated results pages. Regards. -- Whpq 02:55, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your attention to my page. I'll review the links and the referenced wikipedia style manual. Adirondack Camp is an important piece of american and ny history and has been recognized by the ny stqate historical society. I believe strongly it deserves a place here even if my initial submission was assisted by a LLM. I'll work to improve it. Kbedell (talk) 23:24, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

September 2025

Hello, I'm Jlwoodwa. An article that you recently made, User:Kbedell/sandbox, seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or another application using such technology). Text produced by these applications can be unsuitable for an encyclopedia, and output must be carefully checked. In particular, you should check each citation, and fictitious references must be removed. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. jlwoodwa (talk) 23:27, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your attention to my page. Even though I was assisted in the creation of this page by an LLM, I believe Adirondack Camp is an important piece of American history and more specifically, as one of the oldest summer camps in America, it has historical value. I'll work to improve it. I'll also leave this comment on your talk page. Kbedell (talk) 23:26, 29 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Adirondack Camp (September 28)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Pythoncoder was:

Your draft shows signs of having been generated by a large language model, such as ChatGPT. Their outputs usually have multiple issues that prevent them from meeting our guidelines on writing articles. These include:

• Promotional tone, editorializing and other words to watch
• Vague, generic, and speculative statements extrapolated from similar subjects
• Essay-like writing
• Hallucinations (plausible-sounding, but false information) and non-existent references
• Close paraphrasing
  

Please address these issues. The best way is usually to read reliable sources and summarize them, instead of using a large language model. See our help page on large language models.

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:Adirondack Camp 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.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.
