Just to let you know that other editors have done a little cleanup on the article you started at Peter Forster (actor). A great next step to improve the article would be to add further references to coverage of Mr Forster in other reliable sources - books, newspaper articles, and similar. If you know of any material like this and want any help using it as a source to expand the article, take a look at our guide to referencing or feel free to ask me (or the new contributors' help page) for assistance.

Speedy deletion nomination of Ronald Bradshaw

Please refrain from introducing inappropriate pages, such as Ronald Bradshaw, to Wikipedia. Doing so is not in accordance with our policies. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
