Ovedce, each wp has its own standards. Even when they are worded the same, they're interpreted differently. And they're not my personal standards, they're the standards used in practice at a deletion discussion at AfD. It helps nobody if I accept an article and it promptly gets deleted. I shall take a look in a day or two. If I decide to accept, I shall tell you how to improve the article, to give it its best chance. If I decide not to accept, I will say why.
