Inline links
I have reverted all the places where you put inline links to pages outside of wikipedia. The Manual of Style discourages using external hyperlinks in the prose of the article. External links either belong in references or in the external link section.  GB fan  19:15, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much! I appreciate your help and keeping me within the style guidelines. Much appreciated.

Speedy deletion nomination of Michael S. Owen


A tag has been placed on Michael S. Owen 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.

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 hang-on 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.

Your addition has been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without permission from the copyright holder.

You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of article content such as sentences or images.
