I'm not talking about updating an existing article. I'm taking about publishing an entirely new page. I can and do make corrections and additions to existing articles without review. I wrote a completely new article and every time I submit it for review it comes back with a different reason for rejection. However, the most recent one was actually due to a misunderstanding on my part about acceptable sources (turns out I was being more restrictive than I needed to be), so at least it'll be easy to implement the changes this reviewer wants to see.

I have never had to submit a new article for review. Are you writing articles on a topic that is controversial?

Nope! Just some technical stuff. Maybe it's one of of those things where there's not technically an enforcement mechanism. I read all about how to start a draft and turn it into a full article, which includes submitting it for review. Maybe you can just decide not to do that.

I'm guessing that's a new guideline then. It wasn't there when I joined. Also I might have been granted autopatrolled at some point, which might be why I get away with it.
