Proposed deletion of William E. Dorrington


The article William E. Dorrington has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the 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. DGaw (talk) 02:34, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

This make me laugh.... The article is proposed for deletion because the 'biographies of a living person must have at least one reference'. How long must a person be dead for before they are dead per DGaw's interpretation. W E Dorrington died in 1926, so has been dead for over 85 years. There was a tag indicating that there was jargon in the article, ie "RV" which means "Regiment of Volunteers", which is obvious in the context. However, when I went to amend the article and add a citation I was bombarded with jargon in what looked like a computer language. Eventually I received an error message indicating that I had not properly added a citation reference - again loads of jargon and no obvious way to go back and edit the amendment. On the basis of the above I am not surprised you are having to beg for money, you're a load of computer geeks with no ability to see your jargon for what it is ie JARGON.
