Why Was My Content Put in Draft?

Welcome to Knowunity! If your content has been placed in draft status or rejected, don’t worry! This article will help you understand the reasons behind it and how you can make the necessary adjustments.

When your content is not accepted, you will receive an email and an in-app notification explaining the issue. Our automatic review mechanism identifies potential problems with your submission. Here are the common reasons why your content may not have been accepted:


Common Reasons for Content Rejection

  • The title is not relevant enough

    If the title of your content does not accurately reflect its subject, it may be rejected. Tip: Repost your content with a more coherent title that relates to its content. This helps users find it easily.

  • Your content is not readable enough

    Ensure that your content is clear and easy to read. The better your content is, the more it will be appreciated by other users, enhancing your popularity in the community.

  • The quality of the scan is poor

    Content may be rejected if the scan is too dark, blurry, or poorly framed. Please redo the scan, paying attention to the quality to ensure clarity.

  • Your content is not relevant for school

    Knowunity is designed for secondary school students. Make sure your content relates to school courses, school life, or university preparation.

  • Your content is insufficient

    To be relevant, your content should contain enough information and ideally fit onto at least one page. Avoid overly simplistic submissions like a single definition or a short vocabulary list.

  • Your content is not your own

    Only publish content that you created. You must own the copyright or have permission from the original author. Plagiarism can lead to severe legal consequences.

  • Your content is missing sources

    Always provide sources for any images or diagrams you use from the internet or books. This adds credibility to your content.

  • You have published several notes from the same chapter

    If you have multiple files related to the same chapter, group them into a single document. This makes it easier for users to find all relevant information in one place.


What to Do Next

If you believe your content meets the guidelines, you can appeal the decision. To do this, click on the rejected content piece, and you will see an option to appeal. Our team will review your submission again to determine if it meets our standards.

Remember, improving your content not only helps you but also benefits the entire Knowunity community!
