Speedy deletion of Barry Farrimond
A tag has been placed on Barry Farrimond 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.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding  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.

Farrimond friction hitch
Hello Brokenbeep! I noticed you originally started the article covering the Farrimond friction hitch. I am attempting to find any sort of source that refers to this knot. While it is a nifty little knot, Wikipedia is not a place for what is known here as original research. If we are unable to find some sort of independent source for the material found in that article, I fear it will eventually need to be removed from the encyclopedia. Please let me know if you can provide any additional information about how you learned of this knot and whether that source is suitable for use in the article. Thanks! --Dfred (talk) 18:24, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
