I'm willing to restore the page to your userspace for editing and modifications if you wish. However, my concern about the original version was that it essentially read like the kind of thing that might be posted to the "Bio" section of his own website; although it cited a couple of independent reliable sources, it made many more citations to his own publications. And the overall tone was still essentially promotional in nature, relying more on personal quotes about his own work than on neutral descriptions of it, and on a resumé-style list of his accomplishments and affiliations. As well, the "Copyright Studio Forbes" notice at the bottom of the article was also problematic; Wikipedia requires that content posted here be licensed under Creative Commons or GFDL copyright frameworks rather than editors holding copyright for themselves.

As far as the writing tone goes, the best I can suggest would be to look through some of the articles in to see the kind of tone and format and writing style that we actually want.

At any rate, the page will be at User:Sally Widdowson/Rob Forbes for you. Bearcat (talk) 04:21, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
