Draft:Derek Smith (Television Producer) concern
Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Derek Smith (Television Producer), a page you created, has not been edited in 6 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 01:31, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Derek Smith (Television Producer)


Hello, Grayderek55. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Derek Smith".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply and remove the  or  code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code:, paste it in the edit box at this link , and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 14:00, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Help me!
Hello,

I stopped editing the page on my father, Derek Smith (Television Producer) because he passed away in March. I was hoping to get the Wikipedia entry before he died but the entries were twice denied.

Since there have now been obituaries in The Times, The Guardian and many newspapers worldwide, including The Hollywood reporter, I would hope he is now of significance to Wikipedia.

Unfortunately, I am not a geek and am finding it difficult to get the hang of all the jargon and computer technicalities.

I hope someone can help me get a simple entry perhaps.

Graham Smith

 * There seems little need at present to offer you help., You have requested the refund and must now wait a while until it is granted to you. Fiddle   Faddle  21:57, 20 July 2015 (UTC)


 * I have restored the deleted draft at Draft:Derek Smith (Television Producer) so you can improve it and summarize what those reliable third-party sources report about Smith. However, if Smith's death was the only opportunity for others to write about him in any detail, that's not a partiulary strong claim to notability. See WP:Referencing for beginners on how to easily cite your sources. Huon (talk) 22:07, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
