If you have any more questions after that, feel free to ask me directly on my user talk page.

Roman Catholicism in *[edit]
I'm not sure that all of your articles, like Roman Catholicism in The Gambia, are really useful. You might want to check in with the folks at Wikipedia:WikiProject Catholicism for some ideas about the best way to present this information. I've brought it up on their talk page here: [1].

I have proposed that the Rushdenshire be deleted because it is a neologism. You may wish to improve the article by addressing the issues raised in the prod notice. If you do not the article is likely to be deleted after 5 days. Gwernol 12:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Axel Maußen"[edit]
A page you created, Axel Maußen, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thank you. ukexpat (talk) 20:33, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Hugh Thwaites[edit]
The article Hugh Thwaites has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Unsourced BLP, lacking a clear articulation of notability (most likely notability is as an author, but asserts no claims relevant to WP:AUTHOR).
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the Proposed Deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The Speedy Deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and Articles for Deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. HrafnTalkStalk(P) 03:41, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 873 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:
