This question is about the terminology to be used when a draft is not accepted but may be reworked or improved and resubmitted. This action is currently referred to in the AFC Helper script and at the messages provided to the author as being Declined. There has been discussion at the Village Pump at Wikipedia:Village_pump_(miscellaneous)#Declined_vs_rejected_at_AfC. Should the terminology for the three possible actions by a reviewer be:
- A - Accepted, Declined, and Rejected? (The present options)
- B - Accepted, Not Accepted, and Rejected? (The rough consensus at VPM)
- C - Something else, please specify.
