Proposed deletion of Dr. Peter Allen


The article Dr. Peter Allen has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Phileasson (talk) 20:48, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Dr. Peter Allen
Hello. I am working on editing and reviewing your article so that it can be moved to the main space. I apologize for taking so long to do it, but my day job was very troublesome last week so I had to pay some attention to it. I am working on the article now and may need to contact you for more information along the way. Dr. Allen is clearly a notable person and there should be an article about him; I think your problem has been more with referencing the information in the article than with the subject. If I do need more information, do you know Dr. Allen? If not, that's fine - there is lots of information about him on the internet. I hope to have the article reviewed, edited and accepted into the main space in the next few days. Best Regards, Snowysusan (talk) 21:23, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Snowysusan;

Yes I do know Dr. Allen. I would appreciate it so much if this article could be approved. You may contact me at anytime (the sooner the better).

Thank you so much, Shawna McNicol

File permission problem with File:DrPeterAllen.png
Thanks for uploading File:DrPeterAllen.png. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in [ your upload log]. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. VernoWhitney (talk) 01:18, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
