Notice
There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Misguided AfD page. Home Lander (talk) 01:24, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi Mrdavid1729, I see you're trying to start a deletion discussion for David L. Richards, but the page you created was WP:Articles for deletion/David L Richards (without a period after the L). If you're trying to do this manually, I agree creating an AFD discussion is tricky.  We can do this a couple of ways, but perhaps the easiest is if you put your rationale for deleting the page here, on your user talk page, I can create the AFD for you.  In the mean time, I've deleted the misnamed AFD page, because it doesn't really address the reason for deleting the page, and removed the AFD tag from the page (because it doesn't link to anything).  We'll get it sorted, but please don't re-add either one until you come up with a rationale.  You can read WP:AFD for a description of what an AFD discussion should look like.  --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:49, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I saw your comment at WP:ANI that you were giving up on asking for article deletion, and that's fine if that's what you want. but my offer above still stands if you change your mind. --Floquenbeam (talk) 15:08, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I have gone ahead and created a new AFD, as I explain on AN . Captain Eek  Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 18:26, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
