Afd (deletion) discussions edit

I read on the blog that some articles created here have had AFD troubles. Links would be useful if any discussions are still ongoing. Johnbod (talk) 13:11, 2 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

John, it was more PROD and speedy delete stuff. Nothing went as far as AfD, and there is no particular danger at present, even if there are still a few tags. I'm sure it must be dispiriting, and lead to new editors thinking "why should I bother to add stuff if they only want to delete it". Of course, I did warn them to expect deletion issues. Thanks for your concern! Edwardx (talk) 23:07, 2 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Ok thanks - watchlisted this now anyway, in case anything comes up. Johnbod (talk) 10:23, 3 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Barbara Rubin edit

I've just discovered this page, through the "What links here" tool. A draft article about Barbara Rubin is currently under review: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Barbara_Rubin I hope I'm not duplicating someone else's efforts, after all that work!

Wow - you really have done a lot of work on that article. With content of that quality, you should be creating articles in mainspace, and not bothering with Articles for Creation, where there is always a long wait. It's as easy as clicking on Barbara Rubin and then doing a copy and paste. If you're at all worried about anyone trying to have it deleted or adding tags, leave a note on my talkpage and I'll happily keep an eye on it. Edwardx (talk) 17:00, 9 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
