Submission declined on 12 August 2024 by Bobby Cohn (talk). 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. This submission provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please see the guide to writing better articles for information on how to better format your submission.

Comment: This page may be better off as part of Janet Echelman's article, not an entirely new article. Some reliable, published sources exist in this draft; if they were brought to merge with the artist's article (and trimmed down to only list the facts), it may be better for Wikipedia.

Comment: Janet Echelman is not a reliable secondary source for coverage about "Earthtime", as they made the sculptures. The subject should primarily be significantly described by secondary, reliable sources who are independent of the subject, in order to meet Wikipedia's standalone-notability guidelines.Generally speaking, echelman.com and ted.com should presumably not be used as "references to establish notability". At the moment, it doesn't seem this topic has standalone-notability, outside of the article for Janet Echelman which already exists and this topic can be discussed at if desired.
