Welcome!
Hello, Badgerkli, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Phillip Klinger, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

The article Phillip Klinger has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:
- All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. —C.Fred (talk) 18:42, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- I've listed this article for speedy deletion as a blatant hoax; I can find no evidence at all that Klinger, or RM Klinger Holdings, actually exist. If you do have sources that show otherwise, please list them; otherwise, it is likely to be deleted without further notice. Shimgray | talk | 19:12, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- If you would like to provide some sources supporting the existence of Mr Klinger or his company, I will happily undelete the article. Shimgray | talk | 22:08, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- The National Library of Israel would hold copies of any material published in Israel; they do not appear to hold copies of Phillip Klinger: Israel's British Financier or The Growth of the Klinger Empire, nor does any other library on WorldCat. As to the others, I am unfamiliar with the magazine; I am not sure why an Israel-registered company would be covered in a Virgin Islands directors listing; and all the planning application would prove is that someone called Klinger - with different initials, even! - lives in London.
- I have looked into the reference on Lehman Brothers - thanks for pointing it out - and it seems that while the list of directors was there in full in 2010, Mr. Klinger's name was only added a few weeks ago, claiming to be from the same source as the rest of the list. This clearly is dubious - and no other list of directors includes him. Wikipedia is, sadly, prone to this sort of error...
- In short, the real stumbling block here is RM Klinger Holdings. If a company has a turnover of a quarter of a billion dollars, is employed as a consultant to major world organisations, and employs thirty thousand people in 201 countries, it is going to appear in the press, no matter how reclusive its owner is claimed to be. There are simply no references I can find, and it seems deeply unlikely that the only ones are in surprisingly obscure publications. Shimgray | talk | 22:45, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- If you set up an email address here, I'll send a copy through to you. Shimgray | talk | 10:45, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Done. Shimgray | talk | 11:04, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- I sent through the text of the deleted article - this is our normal way of providing deleted content. I'm not quite sure what you mean by "the actual article"? Shimgray | talk | 11:18, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
[edit] Hello Badgerkli. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Phillip Klinger, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.
All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about following the reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.
If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:
- Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with.
- Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors.
- Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam).
- Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies.
Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 22:03, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on User talk:Shimgray. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you would like to have a civil discussion about why your article was not appropriate for Wikipedia, I'm welcome to continue to explain and work with you. If you're going to resort to personal attacks and threats, however, I'll be just as happy to bring in an uninvolved administrator to consider whether you should be allowed to continue editing. —C.Fred (talk) 13:54, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
