Groton School edit

The relevant rule in WP:REDDEAL is: "Lists of "notable people" in an article, such as the "Notable alumni" section in an article on a university, tend to accrue red links, or non-links, listing people of unverifiable notability. Such list entries should be removed; the lists should remain confined to names of people whose notability is attested by an existing article or other reference." So I don't believe my deletion was out of order. The reason that I deleted Hawkins and not the other two is simply that he was the most recent addition and popped up on my "watched pages". I would have a go at the other two as well, but there are only so many conversations like this one that I have time for. Anyway, I am not going to go to the wall to keep Hawkins out, so restore him if you think it is right to do so. What I would respectfully suggest is that you create a short article for him - which would deal both with me and the irate former faculty member! FYI I propose to revert your edits to my user page simply because you inadvertently deleted a comment that had been placed there earlier (and not because I object in any way to your comments).
