Welcome!
Hello, Historicaljournalist, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Ruth Hull, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

Why Deletion of Wikipedia's factual article re Ruth Hull makes Wikipedia irrelevant to fact-seeker.

By being so limited in what resources you will accept, rather than proof of who did what that is available from other sources, Wikipedia is limiting it's ability to keep up with today's events. For instance, if you want to find what Bernie Sanders stands for, you don't go to Wikipedia's confirmed sources. Instead, social media is the bearer of the stronger facts. If you choose to delete an article that if extremely factual and whose validity can be confirmed by members of Congress, that is your choice. You are limiting yourself. The sources you seek are not factual but simply tailor their news to their financiers. Whereas more factual news is available in social media. So delete facts and have the paid for biased facts of Fox News or whatever else is condoned by Wall Street.
