W. Patrick Murphy moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, W. Patrick Murphy, does not have enough 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 page to draft space (with a prefix of Draft: before the article title) where you can work on it with minimal disruption. When you feel that it meets our notability and neutrality requirements, and is thus ready for mainspace, please submit it using the Articles for Creation template on the page.

Thank you Worldbruce, et al. I understand the COI policy and would like to declare that I do work for the same organization as W. Patrick Murphy, the U.S. Department of State. That said, W. Patrick Murphy is not my supervisor or in my chain of command, and he is not responsible for my employment status or financial well-being. As you know, the Department of State is a very large organization comprised of thousands of people. Respectfully, I would ask the Wiki editors to please note that every point in the now reduced draft is amply confirmed by independent reporting, and sincerely I have not made any attempt to embellish the truth, as I have no reason to do so. If you have further concerns about my status or the status of the draft, please let me know prior to the next review. Thank you. Best, redmercw
