{{helpme}} Re-edited Probst page to meet your criteria

We have made several changes to the page including; page clean up, removal of peacock terms, configured a reference box, removed external tags or moved some to their proper 'reference area'. at this point we feel the factual information is not biased. Previously, we had used a similar style from Jeff Probst's page assuming it would be proper for in-depth descriptive language. We feel we have altered that style to a more conservative manner. We feel the work at this stage is accurate and to the point. We hope to further add conservative and proper photographs, articles, references and factual information that will further strengthen this page. Lastly, we added a hangon tag, but in the process of editing, inadvertently removed the speedy delete tag (not realizing what it was) as this is our first attempt at trying to deliver information to wikipedia. (our apologies). In conclusion, these facts are accurate and relevant, and will most certainly adhere to your helpful suggestions. Sincerely, Thank you

Added; help note - footnotes and references question: should every footnote be numbered individually, even if some are from the same source, and must all footnotes have external links? Should we footnote every fact or is a general reference for similar groups of facts acceptable? Please help with your answers and as well, if we need changes allow us time to compile all sources.

We have made several changes to the reference area and will make further additions and/or further changes if necessary

We feel our magazine is is being accurate and responsible in our issuance of facts about RE Romero-Probst void of 'conflict of interest'and hope to contribute other articles and factual information for other people, places and events. (555randolph (talk) 17:02, 10 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of R E Romero -Probst[edit]

A tag has been placed on R E Romero -Probst requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
