Speedy deletion of David Michael Broome

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ww2censor (talk) 04:58, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been reverted or removed. Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, and take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 22:20, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 22:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 22:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

I see you caught on...
Thanks for catching on. Your cooperation gave me the time I needed to peek briefly at the references you listed in the article. Doing so helped me to formulate the opinion that the article was no longer eligible for speedy deletion, and so I removed the tag. It is bad practice here to remove tags from your own articles; that's why I kept reverting it. For what it's worth, even though I don't know much about the notability of failed election candidates, I hope your article stays. Cheers and happy editing! - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 22:38, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
