 * Let's see, there's "prestigious Fellowship" "prestigious school" "the great" "the leading" "Ireland's leading" "garnering much accolade and praise from media and critics" "the hugely successful" Need I go on? We don't need paycock words; no need to gild refinéd gold, to paint the lily. What we require is references to reliable sources. I'm as proud of a great Irishman as the next Hibernian; but we have our rules and standards here. Read WP:BIO for more guidance. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  13:04, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

 * The subject's own writings are generally not reliable sources; we need solid, impartial third-party sources with a neutral point of view; and no promotional language. The thing to do as a rule is to work on a draft in a sandbox such as User:Electricleo5/Alan Foley (note the capitalisation of the F), invite other editors to look at it, and then move it into article space. -- Orange Mike  &#x007C;   Talk  15:06, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
