Your submission at Articles for creation: Paul Andrews (scientist) (February 3)

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

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

The comment the reviewer left was:

For this to be an encyclopedia article, at least a cetrtain amount of basiccbiography is needed: When and where was he born, when and where did he get his degrees, what were his academic appointments. ? If none of this can be found, please let me know on my user tlak pahe, and I'll try to help you.

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 when they have been resolved.
