Welcome!

Hello, Kathleenweaver, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Bob Baldock, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Speedy deletion nomination of Bob Baldock
A tag has been placed on Bob Baldock 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. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles – see the Article Wizard.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), 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.  ttonyb (talk) 03:52, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

A reply to your post (also on my talk page, but since I'm going to archive your message soon, I figured better copy my reply here): Regards, Kimchi.sg (talk) 02:27, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) "I can post to wiki commons several pictures of Bob wiith Fidel" - Don't do that. Upload one or two relevant images here instead since photos of Fidel are likely still copyrighted.
 * 2) "and trust the article in the Cuban Juventud Rebelde counts." - Yes, providing references to reliable sources that others can verify is more valuable than photographic proof.
 * 3) "do I need to go to a library to try to find these in the old papers? Is it a black mark to not have those dated?" - It would enhance the value of your citations to have them dated, but this is not critical.

David L Norton page
I noticed this page marked for Speedy Deletion,

I didn't know him but a friend of his (and of mine) was very distressed by the personal attack aspect of the post, a disservice to his work. I've done a fairly sweeping edit to free the page of this personal vendetta aspect, also tightened the writing. I can't address any notability concerns but can see he had a substantial academic career writing philosophy. yours, kw
