David K Wong article[edit]
If you don't remember me, I was the one that notified you about your first article being deleted. I went ahead and took a look at the article you have posted now, and I thought I'd share some tips with you if you want to make your article successful.
As I predicted, the article is been nominated for deletion once again. People usually watch for attempted recreates of pages that have been removed before. This nomination, however, is not a speedy deletion, but a proposed deletion. This kind of deletion is different. A speedy deletion only requires one administrator's judgement and the article is gone. Proposed deletion is done by input and voting by the community. This allows you time to add sources to back up your article (to which it has only one source). Also, don't be afraid to talk about the nobility of the page in it's talk page. The more sources you find for this page, the less likely your page will be seen as uncreditable and be nominated for deletion.
Also, if you want your page to be successful, you should read up on these wikipedia pages and apply them to the article:
- Tutorial, in case you haven't read it at all
- Manual of style. This will help the article's format look much better and be in accordance to wikipedia's neatness policy.
- Verifiability and Reliable sources will help you properly insert sources, footnote sources, and much more needed to prove your article's credibility.
I hope all this helps you out. If you have any questions, message me. GOOD LUCK! BeanoJosh 06:45, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
