Jose Fadul

If you look at this you can see that an IP added the deletion tag. I then declined to delete the article and removed removed the tag. The conflict of interest arose because the article was created by User:Fadulj who has name appears very similar to the subject. CambridgeBayWeather Have a gorilla 14:37, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to cause the confusion guys. I'm User:Fadulj and was the one who created the article on Jose Fadul. I'm an American from San Diego, California vacationing in the Philippines. I was surprised to find a namesake, a Filipino Jose Fadul, whom I think and am glad to be notable, though we are not related (I'm of Lebanese descent). That is why I made a short Wiki article on him, after knowing what I thought were notable about him which I gathered from other websites. I didn't expect that other Wiki users would contribute to it, add so much to it, and even fight over it. Well, I don't care so much if the article on Jose Fadul gets deleted. As you see, if you Google you'll find at least three Jose A. Faduls all over the world who are not related to each other. And there are other wikis other than Wikipedia. My apologies to MCLeander and CambridgeBayWeather. Best,Fadulj (talk) 07:56, 30 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
