   "your article content are little?"
   
   How many words were in your article?  HubPages recommends that pieces be at least 750 words long, preferably more.
   
   Also, with all due respect, if the awkward phrasing of your post is an example of your English writing ability, then your command of English is not good enough to pass HubPages' quality standards.

      An article is never short because you used simple English. It's because you're not saying enough. That said, it's also not a case of flooding every sentence with adjectives just to make the word count.
      
      Take a look at some of the featured hubs on the home page to see what this platform is looking for.

   Yeah, you should be aiming for a minimum of a thousand words (even that's a bit short).

   Your command of the English language needs improvement. I suggest you read articles from niche sites. That way you will get an idea of how much work it takes to write a good article. Then, decide if you want the challenge of writing articles of this quality. If you do, then read the guidelines and apply them to your article. Good luck.

   In response to your request you have received some kindly put good advice on your awkward use of English. It would be a good idea to ask a native English speaker to help you understand the advice so you can take advantage of it.

      "It would be a good idea to ask a native English speaker to help you understand the advice so you can take advantage of it." - If you really want to help him, split this into multiple sentences
      
      I think you were little rude!, in your previous sentence...

         The sentence quoted is perfectly fine.
         
         Your last sentences, "I think you were little rude!, in your previous sentence...", are not fine. They should be written like this, "I think you were a little rude in your previous sentence."
         
         Plus I can't see any rudeness, so not sure what you are referring to?

         It is not our job to write comments in Simple English. If the OP is not competent enough to understand a long sentence then he should not be trying to write on this site.
         A blog where no one cares about the English quality would be a lot better.

            Hi DrMark1961,
            
            Good Morning
            
            92RTalloni quoted to the person stating he will not understand the comments and need to seek native English speaker's help to understand the comments. And, I said he will not understand his/her comment too... (What he communicated does not reach the person)
            
            I am not teaching 92RTalloni how he/she should write. But considering to whom he/she writes, it is good to write it in simple sentences. For a native speaker it is not a tough one. At-least, the target person does not need a native speaker to understand it.
            
            @theraggededge "Awkward use of English" - I refer that as little rude. I do not want to say the alternative for the word Awkward as people good in English know a lot more alternative for it.

               Awkward means the writing doesn't flow. It's not rude.

   I don't see anyone being rude.  It is not easy writing for HP.  Their standards are high.  Knowing how to write in English is requisite. If sirama is so concerned, he can translate the comments for ibrarHussainshah.
