AfD nomination of Peggy Jean

An article you created maybe deleted soon: Tools which can help you

Hello Jdavidb, I know you are an established editor, but these tools may help you in the AfD:

Find sources for Peggy Jean: google news recent, google news old, google books, google scholar, NYT recent, NYT old, a9, msbooks, msacademic ...You can then cite these results in the Article for deletion discussion.

Also, there are several tools and helpful editors on Misplaced Pages who can help you:

1. List the page up for deletion on Article Rescue Squadron. You can get help listing your page on the Article Rescue Squadron talk page.
2. You can request a mentor to help explain all of the complex rules that editors use to get a page deleted: Misplaced Pages:Adopt-a-User. But don't wait for a mentor to respond to you before responding on the article for deletion page.
3. When trying to delete a page, veteran editors love to use a lot of rule acronyms. Don't let these acronyms intimidate you.
   Here is a list acronyms you can use yourself: WP:Deletion debate acronyms which may support the page you created being kept.
4. You can vote to merge the article into a larger or better established article on the same topic.

If your page is deleted, you still have many options available. Good luck! travb (talk) 03:53, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:External Links

Hello, Jdavidb. Sorting through the history of "Links normally to be avoided", I found this discussion in which you contributed. In fact, I saw that you used the same example which I had just used, at Wikipedia_talk:EL#Proposed_ELNO_.232_exception. As I attempted to lay out there, it appears that the clause added as a result of that discussion remained for a while, but later was partially lost, by accident as far as I can tell. Thought you might be interested. PSWG1920 (talk) 01:55, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Jdavidb! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 7 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

1. Moisés Silva - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

File source problem with File:Jdavidb.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Jdavidb.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Misplaced Pages's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:54, 6 September 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:54, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
