James Holland
[edit]Your new article about James Holland does not in any way assert this subject's notability. You have essentially told us that Holland is an author, who lives in Broad Chalke, who has a brother who is also an author, and who has founded a local historical festival. None of this is the stuff of an encyclopedia article. Tell us about Holland's accomplishments, his significant books, the awards and recognition he has received for those books, etc. Without that material, the article is hardly likely to be retained for very long.
