Falleron (river) moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Falleron (river), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Edward "Mouse" Fielden

I was wondering about the article on Edward Fielden. You expanded the article with a number of nice contributions. However I did not understand the improvement banner you placed at the top of the page. It states the article needs more in-line citations, particularly in regard to an obituary in The Times dated 9 November 1976. What did you mean here? Are you thinking the obituary should be used as a source for the article? Thanks. Gunbirddriver (talk) 22:08, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind feedback. Prior to my edits, the Times Obituary was the only substantial source cited in the references section (apart from the Telegraph announcement about Fielden's wife's death). I do not have access to the Times obituary, so I could not read it or attribute it as an inline reference to any related material in the body of the article. I didn't want to remove it though, as I expect it is a useful source as the original editor intended - so I added the no footnotes tag instead in the hope that somebody with access could follow up. --KenBailey (talk) 10:07, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Oh okay, I see. Yes, it looks like the article was created with that and a link to an unofficial RAF web page. I could not find access to the obituary either, so I was unable to add anything in that regard. The series of citations off the London Gazette were nicely done. That takes a bit of work. Again, tip of the hat. Gunbirddriver (talk) 11:15, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
