First draft[edit]

A deletion took place yesterday. This may have been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. NB. Early page history may be withheld to general editors until an administrator intervenes. --Ricksy 07:49, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, come on!. The deleted version said "Michael Perham is 14 years old and expected to become the youngest person to sail single-handedly across the Atlantic." and was deleted within one minute of creation. Admittedly it was sparse, and he hadn't actually completed the crossing at the time, but there are currently 367 reports of his achievement accessible from Google News UK, from the UK, US, Qatar, Romania, China, Australia, NZ. I have read articles about him in the French, Spanish, German and Dutch Google News. He was on all the UK tv news programmes last night. His notability is amply demonstrated. -- Arwel (talk) 08:13, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Same as the deletion log, might have been more, but it does not fill in who was the first to open an article for him or which user may have had doubts about his expedition; initial article could have been given the benefit of a proposed vs speedy deletion, to let the guys have a chance to finish. --Ricksy 03:18, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Blue Peter[edit]

Michael appeared on Blue Peter on 24 January, 2007 and received the programme's highest award, a gold blue peter badge, for his achievements. Unfortunately, there's no way we can reference this yet. Please keep an eye out on the next Blue Peter annual and other sources to see if we can cite any of it later on. - Mgm|(talk) 09:12, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Possible sources[edit]

http://search.metro.co.uk/tag/isle-wight-sail-michael-perham.html might have a few tidbits of information not yet included. - Mgm|(talk) 23:37, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reads extremely awkwardly[edit]

"A Dutch court did hear a case on 24 August 2009 to cease temporarily parental control to stop Laura from attempting to sail off."

Could this be written in a more readable format, as I cannot see what the intent of this sentence is.--64.238.186.98 (talk) 15:33, 30 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done, and referenced. -- Arwel Parry (talk) 09:01, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Gallery please[edit]

Can someone put those big pics into a gallery format? It's starting to look like a home page for Perham et al. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.101.178.63 (talk) 05:44, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. -- Arwel Parry (talk) 08:52, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
