Hi. I don't know what you used to add the hangon tag to this article, but it was malformed and, well, not Wikipedia style (according to the instructions) :-) The article itself just needs a {{hangon}} tag added, and the reason needs to be on the talk page. I've fixed this for you. CultureDrone (talk) 21:46, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Hi. As far as I can see, that particular article has actually been deleted. You should also be aware that talk pages aren't generally allowed without the corresponding article - mainly as it wouldn't make sense to have a page talking about something that didn't exist, so that will probably be deleted as well. Anyway, the problem (as I see it) with your original article, and the reason I proposed it for deletion, was that it didn't actually tell me anything. When I looked at the page, all I saw was a few headings, and links to various web sites - there was nothing to even tell me who or what the article was actually supposed to be about. I could guess from the name that it was probably a person (though it could be a company), but there was no indication of why they were notable enough to be included in Wikipedia, or even if they were currently alive or dead ! If you think the article is worth rewriting, then I suggest you firstly have a look at other biographical articles - just think of someone famous and have a look at their article and how it's constructed, and then read this: Wikipedia:Your first article. If you need any help, you're welcome to ask me - just be aware that since I'm in the UK, there may be a time difference and I'm not online 100% of the time! Happy editing :-) CultureDrone (talk) 09:23, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

Incidentally, I'm not sure what you mean on the Ross Seyfried talk page by "It should not be a dead link on so many wikipedia pages" - as far as I can tell, it's only linked to by one actual article and two talk pages - hardly 'many' :-) CultureDrone (talk) 09:27, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
