Ade Oladipo moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Ade Oladipo, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. scope_creep^Talk 17:01, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Please completely remove the article. It currently appears on the Web (EverybodyWiki) without my consent. Black Elephant Ed. (talk) 07:30, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

AfC notification: Draft:Ade Oladipo has a new comment

I've left a comment on your Articles for Creation submission, which can be viewed at Draft:Ade Oladipo. Thanks! scope_creep^Talk 17:01, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Woody McClain

The article Woody McClain has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Toddst1 (talk) 15:18, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

The page has a reference. It should be in drafts as it is the beginning of a page, not the completed version. Black Elephant Ed. (talk) 15:48, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

The page does, in fact, have a reference. However, it is an incomplete page. Please move it to drafts - there's no need to delete it. Thank you. Black Elephant Ed. (talk) 15:49, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Someone removed the IMDB reference. Black Elephant Ed. (talk) 15:50, 6 December 2020 (UTC)

Reliable sources

Please be careful not to use user-generated content as a source. See WP:IMDBREF for why IMDB is never to be used as a reference. Toddst1 (talk) 18:30, 6 December 2020 (UTC)
