All my articles keep getting unpublished and I can't see where the problem is I need help.

My guess is that it is down to image use. You need to make sure you have the legal right to use any images on your page.

It is a rather long page. I would read all of it if you serious about writing online, but you can skip to the legal stuff half way down the page if you want to.
Best of luck...
Hi there,
There are a few issues with this article.
Firstly, the url should be similar to the title. Using just the first letters doesn't really work. It doesn't have to be exactly the same, but at least should reflect the content. Think about how often you mouse over a link to see where it goes.
The first paragraph is a vast over-generalisation. It's not true that 'most people' feel like they are 'living the wrong life', or have been 'born into the wrong family'. Not unless you have data to back up those wild claims?
Second paragraph - you can't tell your reader how they feel. It's enough to make them press the back button. You could say , 'You may feel that...'
While I think that addressing the reader directly is usually a good idea, you cannot lecture them. It comes over as haranguing.
You also misunderstand 'imposter syndrome'. It is the state of feeling that you are living a better life than you deserve, not the other way round. As if you are unable to live up to the responsibility and position you hold. That you have to work harder than anyone else. The person still feels like a gauche teen, rather than a competent, mature adult.

Note how the writer talks about 'people', and doesn't address failings directly to 'you'. Then when they offer positive solutions, they switch to 'you'.
End with a concluding paragraph which rounds up the content. And make sure you add authoritative academic references/studies that back up your research.
As Will mentioned, you can only use legal images. They have to carry a Creative Commons commercial-use license, or be Public Domain.

I took a few years off from writing avidly to focus on two degrees in English and Creative Writing. Now, as I am getting back into the content article writing routine again, I decided to add some creative writing flair to my content writing style. I thought it would be more engaging for the reader,...

My latest articles, which I wrote and published, were later unpublished and flagged as AI-generated content, even though I created/wrote them myself.It would be helpful to receive pre-warnings during the writing process if an article is likely to be unpublished, allowing us to address potential...

I imagine a few people will notice as my hubs disappear here and appear elsewhere. So I write this forum and my last hub detailing my discontent.There have been issues in the past, but nothing I would leave over. A lot of very good hubbers picked up and left Hubpages this spring and I thought they...
