Paid editing

Why on earth would somebody pay for this article! There are countless thousands of editors who would create it for free!— Preceding unsigned comment added by Theroadislong (talk • contribs) 22:02, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Theroadislong I would suspect, because the AfC process is impossible for a new users and the requested articles is a black hole. Getting anyone's attention just to create the initial page is close to impossible for people.—አቤል ዳዊት^?(Janweh64) (talk) 22:09, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly it needs to be easier to request articles like this! Theroadislong (talk) 22:11, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Request edit

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

Please replace the article with the version that can be found at Draft 1. The changes made can be seen at these three diffs: section off text, add photo and add new descriptions

There is also this version which avoids a new section: Draft 2.

Thank you.—አቤል ዳዊት^?(Janweh64) (talk) 21:17, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

We cannot replace the article with your preferred version, please indicate which edits you wish to be made. Theroadislong (talk) 22:45, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Theroadislong: I would like these edits to be made: section off text, Not done not clear why we need a separate section add photo

Not done not clear what relevance the photograph has to the content? and add new descriptions —አቤል ዳዊት^?(Janweh64) (talk) 23:09, 24 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Theroadislong: Thank for your time. The trail is specifically a "scenic byway" and as the additional sentences and description explain Caballo Lake and Caballo Mountains are along the route. The photo was taken from the road very near it as I try to demonstrate in this google street view.

You have not made your decision clear on adding the towns along the byway as shown in add new descriptions. Stopping short of responding to that request will cause other editors to ignore this request. Offcourse, you are free to reject that as well.—አቤል ዳዊት^?(Janweh64) (talk) 00:48, 25 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Janweh64, I am closing this request as declined because of the 'not done' tick marks for submitted proposals and now the drafts (one and two) are deleted. Please begin again with a new request in a new section if you have further directions. There is nothing left here to work with. All the best, Fylbecatulous talk 23:30, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
