I am so confused one of my math hubs was just unpublished for having unrelated ebay capsules. It was about triangles and how to find the missing angles in a triangle. I had two ebay capsules - one I used the keyword protractor and the other I used the word geometry. How are these unrelated?
Makes no sense to me. Do you use the word "geometry" in your Hub? That might help get the textbooks passed. Or maybe you just got a moderator who can't add. I would do what Relache suggests and email them.
Unless the products returned are extremely specific to the process or topic you are discussing, you'd do better to use Amazon and list hand-chosen items that relate directly to the subject matter of the Hub instead of taking your chances with a keyword search.
Of course, debating the actions of the admin team here is pretty moot, as we can't see the unpublished Hub nor are any of us empowered to make decisions as to what is and isn't a TOS violation. You'd likely do best to email the team directly and ask for clarification as to the subtlety with which they determine what is related.
I can't use Amazon because my state is one of the ones that doesn't allow us to be an associate. The items were all protractors in the first one which are directly related to measuring angles. The second produced some geometry textbooks which I guess could be unrelated to a geometry topic?
I removed them and just put a generic capsule in and it got tagged again - This is the first time I had a problem with any of my hubs
As I said previously, your best bet is to email the admin team and ask for some clarification.
Wow math is a awesome topic even if it scared me
I agree with Marissa, it doesn't make sense why your Hub would get flagged for including math tools
I recommend emailing to Maddie, she's awesome too

I’ve been experimenting recently with ChatGPT. In this case, it looks like I didn’t do enough work on the article to improve and humanize it.The speed of rejection and wording of the email suggests that it was auto-detected.I don’t know whether to be upset or cheered that the software rejected it....

Does anyone know what percentage of a hub can be "duplicate content"? I have a hub that was unpublished because it had a lot of statistics on it...so I am wondering if I can add content to make it ok?
