Your draft article[edit]

Hello, your draft article has been moved to Draft:Randy Thornhorn. Please see this page for information on how to properly format references. Also note that book cover blurbs are not considered reliable sources, they are always clearly purely promotional and will not help establish that the subject meets the requirements of a stand alone article which requires third parties to have taken note .-- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 03:08, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your Article[edit]

I have succeeded in deleting the first copy of your article. However, I have not been able within time constraints to get it to an acceptable form. Your use of numbered footnotes, rather than letting Wikipedia do the numbering for you, is part but not all of the problem. I would suggest that you play The Wikipedia Adventure to get a little guided experience. I am having a lot of problems with your references, which are the hardest part of Wikipedia (in my view), and would suggest that you ask for help with them at the Teahouse, as well as for general advice on that article and for general advice.
