Page way too short for such an interesting character...

Wondering how such an interesting character could have such a short wiki page. Here's a "Dollop" on him https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq_cH9y8Wb4&list=PLQLy4Ev_-pxDDrs5h2V37MX9QCeoQZBpp&index=81&ab_channel=TheDollopwithDaveAnthony%26GarethReynolds which used these sources:

Book: 'Morris, Peter. Catcher: How the Man Behind the Plate Became an American Folk Hero. (2009). Newspapers: “Base Ball News” The Des Moines Register (July 13, 1883) p 3 “Don Juan of Shaven Head.” The Los Angeles Times (Jan 18, 1913) Part II p 1-2

There's also this page: http://torontodreamsproject.blogspot.com/2018/03/the-con-artist-harry-decker-torontos.html which features an image of Decker's glove patent.

The guy was a genuine character and should have a better article in my opinion. I'd write one myself but my skills and knowledge of wiki policies aren't up to the task.
