Speedy deletion nomination of William brownie garden
edit
Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as William brownie garden, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

William Brownie Garden
editHi... Just a heads up. I did a bit of work getting the article William Brownie Garden looking a little better. I moved the page to change the name so the capitalization was correct, added a couple of references and category. I strongly urge you to gather references (books, magazine or newspaper articles, etc)... see WP:CITE and WP:VERIFIABILITY for information on citing reliable sources. Good luck and have fun. I'll watch the page and jump in when I can! Wikipelli Talk 18:31, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi there, thanks for the input it has really helped! I am in the process of trying to gather this information from Garden's Grandson. I have a picture of Garden, might sound a bit stupid but how do I upload a picture? I dont know if this is within policy, but im not that proficient in Wiki, can I put you in touch with this guy or can I call you?
Kind Regards

Need help with William Brownie Garden
editHi... I've edited and organised and whatnot, but I need help with some of the inventions and quotes. You suggested that Garden was the inventor of the tote board. I'm finding nothing at all to reinforce that. Non-skid cars? Can't find a thing.... Non-clutch cars? nothing... I'm good with this article being about the inventor of the roller board, but would like to include verifiable references for the other information in the article as originally stated. I'll wait a day or two, but then I feel I have to start deleting things. How about a picture of the man? Wikipelli Talk 23:55, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
