Matt Chandler

The entire content of the deleted article was "Matt Chandler is the lead pastor of The Village Church in the Dallas/Fort Worth area in North Texas. Matt preaches at the Flower Mound campus and video services are usually seen of Matt's sermons on the campuses in Dallas, TX and Denton, TX." Good luck, NawlinWiki (talk) 18:36, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

  • Thanks, NW. He's now going through a highly-publicized (and thus, well-documented) bout with brain cancer, and his profile is much-elevated from when you previously deleted it. I'll do my best to make certain I don't put it online until I have a few sources, and more content than the previous "article."

Disambig help

I created a disambiguation page here, but I'm not sure I formatted it correctly, since I've never done disambig work before. Any help you guys can give me would be appreciated.

Try using Gates as an example. That said, you only need a disambig page for 3 or more articles. If it's only two, you can use the {{otheruses}} or {{seealso}} templates on the article's themselves.--v/r - TP 15:04, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
(edit conflict × 2) I cleaned up the page slightly, so you can look at the history to see what I did. Remember to tag dabs with {{bio-dab}} or {{dab}} to prevent them from being categorized or tagged by AWB bots, and don't add categories to such pages. Good luck!

That looks perfect, thanks! I wondered about the issue of there only being two, but neither of the two men is clearly more notable than the other, so I thought a disambig might be more appropriate. The next time I create one, I'll use the tags and such that you mention here. Thanks, LHM 15:12, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
