References

Stick them in the article, and I'll withdraw my nomination quite happily. (They could do to be added to the Swedish article too, I suppose. Can't remember if you were one of the editors there, but you obviously can manage Swedish. If I'm wrong on that score, let me know and I'll add them over there.) Peridon (talk) 18:58, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can add others things as External Links if you like. I've posted withdrawing the nomination. Peridon (talk) 20:25, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Some feedback and hints

Hello AddyFBG! After having a look at your recent articles, I'd like to give you some feedback. The first is to really have a closer look at the "Welcome!" message above and the links in it. Your articles have too few internal links, are not sufficiently categorized and are not sufficiently referenced. This leaves a lot of work to other editors in order for the article to come up to the minimum standard expected of a Wikipedia article. There is not question in my mind (since I'm familiar with Swedish texts) that you've added articles on notable persons. However, when they have these quality issues, there is a much larger risk that they are nominated for deletion. So, in the long run, it is much more preferable to take some additional time on each article to make them better/more Wikipedia-adapted from the start. I hope we'll see additional contributions from you, done with this piece of advice in mind. Best regards, Tomas e (talk) 16:09, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
