Why was my submission rejected?

Well, usually you are notified, but in some cases there are glitches and other cases there are too many messages to notify everyone. But, it always comes down to one of these:

It's in the wrong category
_{Next step Resubmit correctly using the directions on the homepage}

It breaks a rule
_{Next step Check the rules by following the link on the homepage}

It was a repeat submit
_{Next step Considering it's usually a glitch, there's nothing you can do, it's most likely already accepted}

It's never a case of quality
