Two obits in the New York Times and not notable? --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 15:11, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As User:Dlohcierekim notes below, nothing in the body of the article shows any notability: it should contain the reasons why he got the obits. I'd have thought that quoting the NYT obits verbatim would surely violate copyright - needs to be re-written into the main text. TrulyBlue (talk) 17:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What I meant was, take the info out of the cite and put in the article. I was trying to give pasuse to anyone seeking to delete the article. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 21:10, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The newspaper articles cited here are out of copyright. They were published in the US before 1923.--SwanQ (talk) 19:39, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

yes, that's what I meant, too. regards, TrulyBlue (talk) 10:54, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The yachting magazine "The Rudder" has a long biographical article about him in the June 1916 issue. See [2]. I have no time to edit right now, but it provides plenty of fodder. --67.241.8.245 (talk) 01:32, 4 February 2009 (UTC) OOps, I should have logged in. --SwanQ (talk) 01:34, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

notable~

[edit]

the content asserting notability is in the sources, not the article itself. when I tried to fix, I got an edit conflict. Dlohcierekim
