Ian, let me add my welcome to Matthew's to the wonderful world of Wikipedia.

I've reverted your attempt to create an article about Rowland Croucher... You seem to have been using the Tronson article as a guide, and published your stuff inside the article about him.

Best to put the name of the person you want to create an article about in the search Wikipedia facility, and it will then invite you to create an article if it doesn't already exist, and give some simple guidelines. All the best. You can contact me here[1] Ron Cameron 04:23, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Scotland

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Peter Scotland, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
