Meningie and Robert Potter
Hey, I don't want an Edit war over this, and I do understand what you're trying to achieve. I came from a country town myself, and I do know about Meningie. I like the place. But we have a few issues. As I noted in my Edit summary, the link Robert Potter doesn't take us to an article about the person you're writing about. It takes us to what's called a disambiguation page, listing all the Robert Potters who have Wikipedia articles. And yours isn't one of them. So we can't Wikilink his name that way.

One solution would be to create an article on him. From one of the sources you provided, the CRS one, it seems he may be worthy of one, though it's probably a bit marginal. Unfortunately, your first source, the Washington Post one, doesn't actually work. You should look at that and see if you can fix it. And maybe work on creating an article.

For the moment I'd be happy to leave the entry there, with just the sources to support it, but not the Wikilink (because it doesn't actually work). But obviously another editor has felt like I first did. Not much I can do about that. HiLo48 (talk) 11:19, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with HiLo48. I have removed your links from Flinders University and Heights School (Australia). The Washington Post link is 404 and the other reference doesn't mention Meningie, The Heights or Flinders (it says he's a postgrad student at UQ). If you can make an article about him that provides references for those places, maybe the links could return (but I removed the other so-called notable person from The Heights, too). Welcome to Wikipedia. Good luck with contributing more. --Scott Davis Talk 00:01, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
