Talk:Bow tie

edit

Hi,

You may have an interest, since I saw your name in the history list of the Bow tie article: There's a separate article, List of bow tie wearers and an admin is suggesting deleting it. When I looked into the Bow tie page, I found there's already a list there. I don't have an opinion on which list should remain, but one really should go. I'd appreciate your advice on the Talk:Bow tie page, if you're interested and have the time.Noroton 00:52, 10 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Hello Jack,

I was just wondering where you got the information about Lindsay Thompson as you wrote-

'In 1981 he was awarded the Douglas Wilkie Medal by the Anti-Football League for his efforts to ban football games on Sunday. In later life, Thompson enjoyed attending games at St James' Park in England to watch his beloved Newcastle United play.'

I'm sorry to say Jack, either you have your sources wrong or you were feeling imaginative as he didn't support Newcastle United, he supported the Richmond Tigers.

And also, Lindsay was the exact opposite of "trying to ban football on Sunday" as he was a mad football fan. He certainly never tried to ban it and he never recieved the Douglas Wilkie Medal.

This untrue information saddens me as he loved football and he would be most taken aback by what you wrote.

Yours sincerely, Love.today (talk) 06:33, 28 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Proposed deletion of Douglas Wilkie

edit
 

The article Douglas Wilkie has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (biographies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page here in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back through WP:ECHO or by leaving a note at User talk:Piotrus. Thank you.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
