John Templeton (1802-1886), British opera singer

[edit]

Headhitter added "John Templeton (1802-1886), British opera singer". I've removed the entry, because it does not comply with WP:DDD. Primarily, there was no link in the entry. I searched Wikipedia for a suitable article to link to, but the only thing I can find is brief mentions of him in these articles:

Neither of those articles link to him, so there aren't currently sufficient grounds to add a redlink to the disambiguation page. The mention of him in List of people from Richmond upon Thames lists a reference, but it's not clear to that he's notable enough for an entry (which would justify a redlink from the two articles and the DAB, presuming a future article). That fact that he has a plaque suggests notability, but do we have anything else? Mitch Ames (talk) 10:05, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We do now. I've created a new article: John Templeton (opera singer) Headhitter (talk) 23:29, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Is it the same person as listed in James Cuthbert Hadden#Contributions to the Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900? If so that should be linked also. Mitch Ames (talk) 12:03, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done - thanks for alerting me. Headhitter (talk) 19:34, 5 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
