Please don't make multiple copies of the same article. If we need to have multiple titles we use redirects, but I don't know that is even warranted for the punctuation variation you made.

And the unreviewed article template should not be used on drafts. It is for new articles that are already in article space. Please use the AFC template and then submit it for review.See Drafts Meters (talk) 01:42, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Terence M. O’Rourke


The article Terence M. O’Rourke has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No evidence of significant coverage in third-party sources, as an unelected candidate does not meet WP:NPOL."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
