edit

Well I cant find the 2016 major league baseball season article I hope the schedule comes out on Tuesday which it's suppose to be released by then 68.103.78.83 (talk) 18:48, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Because no-one's created it yet. Haven't we been over this before? --Viennese Waltz 18:58, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If you create an account, you can create it. Remember, Wikipedia only exists because people who care write about things. If you care, you're quite allowed to write in Wikipedia. --Jayron32 19:05, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I Don't Know how to create this article but I am trying to be on my best Behaviour. And then after this I will not create another article for 6 months. 68.103.78.83 (talk) 20:00, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Create an account and then you can create the article. Or, go to the page where you can ask for an article to be created. (And this ain't it.) ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 20:13, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Er, that would be Wikipedia:Requested articles/Sports. (We responders have to make a teensy effort to do the basic groundwork for our answers, if we expect our questioners to do the same for their questions.) -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 20:45, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for supplying that. I couldn't think of what it might be called. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 21:41, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Notice, farther down, that the OP pays no attention to that advice anyway. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 14:25, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, well, that's ok then. Why didn't you say so earlier? </sarcasm> -- Jack of Oz [pleasantries] 21:47, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The perils of assuming good faith, prior to the re-emergence of a pattern. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 14:06, 7 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK, @68.103.78.83:, I created the basic article 2016 Major League Baseball season for you. You can now edit it as you see fit.    → Michael J    21:35, 3 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tommy Jackson, fiddler

edit

This man was my father and one of the famous "Nashville A Team" studio musicians. I'm not qualified to write the article, but I would love to see him receive the credit for helping shape country music. He played for: Hank Williams, Sr. Ray Price, George Jones and countless others...Thank you for your consideration.

Hi, you can post this request at Wikipedia:Articles_for_creation. Try to find as many sources (WP:RS) you can that might mention his work. Anything from newspapers or magazines is a good place to start (Wikipedia:List_of_online_newspaper_archives), also he may be listed for his work with other artists at some of the List_of_online_music_databases.

He's listed at The Nashville A-Team, although he doesn't have his own article. He should pass WP:MUSIC - see, for example, this article. Tevildo (talk) 00:14, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've now started an article - sorry it's taken so long! Ghmyrtle (talk) 19:37, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've been adding some links. Did Tommy Jackson play steel guitar on Half a Man by Willie Nelson? If so, a link can go in that article as well. Tevildo (talk) 22:20, 8 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
