March 2010[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from George Thornton (Fermanagh), a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Edison (talk) 00:02, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from pages you have created yourself, as you did with this edit to George Thornton (Fermanagh). Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion, and make your case on the page's talk page. Thank you.

I have nominated The Wide-awake, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Wide-awake. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Please contact me if you're unsure why you received this message. Edison (talk) 00:12, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any hope you can provide the sources for your article? Unless you can provide sources, it is liable to be deleted as original research (which is usually taken to mean pure invention). As indicated above, it is in danger of deletion. How many other barges were operating on the lough at the time? If it was the only one it may be notable. If you are not sure how to add references, I suggest you place details on the article's talk page (discussion), so that some one else can add the details in the appropriate format.

This is the final warning you are receiving regarding your disruptive edits.
The next time you create an inappropriate page, such as George Thornton (Fermanagh), you may be blocked from editing without further notice. This page has repeatedly been introduced by you and has been deleted previously. Please stop. GregJackP (talk) 00:26, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am afraid that we have no way to verify your identity and, thus, cannot just take your word for the fact that he is your grandfather. Wikipedia has policies that work on notability and verifiability. In order to meet these standards, articles must have coverage in reliable, third-party articles, such as in newspapers, magazines, journals, and the like. Without this coverage, there is no way for any of us to verify the accuracy of the information in an article. Thus, if you want to save the article from deletion, you will need to find reliable sources to put into the article. I would suggest you look in places like Google News. I'm going to try and help out if I can. I wish you luck in saving the article. SilverserenC 01:24, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

George Thornton (Fermanagh)[edit]

I am sorry that you are running into problems on the article you want to write on your father - the problem is that the article does not show that he is notable enough to be included in an encyclopedia. I understand what you are trying to do, and have thought of doing the same for my own father - but my dad doesn't meet the notability standards, there are not sufficient reliable sources to show his notability, and most importantly, I would have a conflict of interest in writing an article about him since he is my dad. I'm sorry that this is frustrating to you, but would encourage you to read the links on notability, sources, and conflict of interest, and you might be able to prove me wrong. If so, I would be happy to support your articles - but at the present time, I cannot. Good luck, GregJackP (talk) 01:56, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
