Proposed deletion of Michael G. Manning
Hello, Andreasrsa

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username 0xDeadbeef, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I’ve proposed an article that you started, Michael G. Manning, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. To prevent the deletion, please add a reference to the article. You may remove the deletion tag yourself once the article has at least one reliable source.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And, don't forget to sign your reply with. Thanks!

 * Hi There,
 * Admitedly, I bit off a too much. Time hasnt been on my side. The author (Michael G Manning) had agreed to assist me in setting up his author bio. But we are worlds and timezones apart. I have plently of reputable rreferences of his works. I will attempt to make it somewhat of a mini-bio. With references, so possibly a fan can contribute in the future.
 * If I dont win, I wll contact you to delete it.
 * Thanks for the notice

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Andreasrsa. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. 0x Deadbeef 05:53, 1 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi,
 * No, I have read his books. I am based in South Africa, and he is based in Texas. I wanted to do this. Because I enjoy contributing - I am a member of canonical Ubuntu, Wordpress Dev among other technical forums. I have done a couple edits and cites for Wikipediea around Broadband South Africa. I wanted to learn this side of Wikipedia. A lot of the contrbutors for South Africa seem to live in an alternate reality. I would like to fix that.
 * I need to email the Author about the image, and a couple things. But i have provided some cites, as requested. Please be a little patient with me. I am a fast leaner, but this is a learning curve.
 * Thanks,
