Proposed deletion of John W. Rutledge


The article John W. Rutledge has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Wuh Wuz  Dat  04:29, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Please don't vandalise pages, or I will block you.
 * You can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~
 * Hi, I deleted your recent article because it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts or show that it meets the notability guidelines. It is now wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have references
 * I don't just sit around deleting, I've written nearly thirty FAs
 * You seem to misunderstand. If you choose to create an article, it's up to you to do the research, not me
 * Similarly, it's up to you to supply the references and make sure it's neutral and encyclopaedic
 * Why would you delete a perfectly fine page? &mdash; see above
 * Although you can make illustrative quotations, when most of the article is a quotation, it looks like copyright infringement and spam
 * is a personal hero of mine after entering the corporate world and meeting with him before his death on several occasions &mdash; not sure you are the right person to write a neutral article

To add footnotes, put the footnote text between   tags where you want it in the main text. At the end of your article have a References heading followed by  , and your references will be automatically numbered and displayed. You can avoid bare urls if you use the format  [url description]  This will display the description, so The Ashes will show the description and not the url.
