declined submission
An article submission of mine got declined, and I resubmitted it for review. Will it take longer to get reviewed than a brand new submission? Adamilo (talk) 05:15, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
- There is still only one reference with substantial content. For proving notability there should be at least two. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:03, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

Did the Europeans capture them themselves,or did people in Africa capture slaves and then sell them to the Europeans? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spiderman788 (talk • contribs) 06:01, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
The latter article states that the vast majority of slaves from Africa weren't captured directly by European traders, but were captured by other Africans. If that's true then why should white people have to feel so guilty about their past history when Black people played an equal part in the slave trade? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spiderman788 (talk • contribs) 06:26, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
