:Please don't continue to reinsert these people without an article. Perhaps they are notable; but as long as they're without articles, they simply don't belong. You can write an article on them if you want, you know. More importantly: stop deleting the References section, because this is vandalism if you mean to do it, and it's carelessness if you don't.

Sorry -- I did not realize an article needed to exist before a person could be added to a "Notable natives" list. As you can see, I have added a basic article for the Steads. You can also see my motivation for including them on your page. OBTW I did not intentionally delete anything, including a reference section. Sorry -- I guess that was a "new-bee" error on my part. If you would like to email me directly, pls contract me at mguy42@live.com I would be more than happy to give you any degree of detail you need about me or my motivation for including the Steads. |
