Tarl Warwick and the need for reliable, independent sources

edit

Hi, Camero-Belter, welcome to Wikipedia! I'm going to leave a welcome template below this message that has a lot of useful links. I noticed your first article, Tarl Warwick, and I wanted to draw your attention to an issue with the article. See, for a person (or other topic) to qualify for a Wikipedia article, you must show that person meets Wikipedia's notability guideline. Basically, this means that you have to show that Warwick has been written about in depth in reliable, independent sources, such as newspapers, magazines, or reputable websites with editorial oversight. Currently, your article doesn't cite any such sources, just Warwick's own websites and profiles. If such sources aren't added, your article may be nominated for deletion.

Are you faking sources?

edit

Through a search of WorldCat and Google, it appears that the two sources you used when creating Greater Equatorial Guinea were faked. I am flagging the piece as a hoax, pending your clarification. If you have faked sources elsewhere your time here will be very, very short. Please show evidence that both the book and the article actually exist. Carrite (talk) 17:21, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

I've brought this matter to the RELIABLE SOURCES NOTICEBOARD, please address my concerns there. Thank you. Carrite (talk) 17:39, 10 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
