 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Tutorial
 * How to edit a page
 * How to write a great article
 * Manual of Style
 * Many precedents show that a Wikipedia article about a sanctioning body should not have external links to driver's websites. A discussion can be done with members of WikiProject Motorsport to confirm my assertion, but I am certain that the external links to the drivers will end up being deleted. Be forewarned, there is a possibly that the increased exposure for the article could easily result in someone nominating the article for deletion since the series is definitely non-national and it is barely regional. I'm sure you don't want that result. Royal broil  13:17, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I can compromise on changing the external links to an external link placed on the driver's name above the external links (in the championship and ROTY sections). Royal broil  13:25, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Joe Shear
I have contested the speedy deletion for his article as I am well aware of some of his many racing accomplishments. I saw your edits to Slinger and Rockford's articles which I developed. I'll help you develop an article on Shear. Next time I suggest writing an article in your own person sandbox (known as your userspace). After you have completed the article, then you first post it in the viewable area (known as mainspace). Next time you want to develop and article, leave me a message here and I'll guide you through it. Do you plan to work on the article any more right now, or should I have at it?

 * Several things besides our discussion on my talk page. First, please sign your comments by typing in 4 tildas ( ~ ). Then anyone can tell who said what. A bot is wasting time marking your edits as unsigned. Second, images on Wikipedia are real complicated. Basically, you should not upload any image unless you took it yourself. Images from other websites won't stay, except under a few circumstances. Please save yourself time and don't bother with images.  Royal broil  03:54, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, the article is in much better shape. It is still missing his ASA championships, so please add that information. I can't find the exact years.


 * Please make sure that you expand using sentences instead of bullets. There's a chance that I might nominate it for the main page's Did You Know section for the best new articles (after saving from speedy deletion!!!). So please be very careful to cite your sources. It's fine if that means providing me the source information so that I can format it properly. Time is of the essence with DYK, because nominations have to be less than 5 days old. I won't have time to get that Grubba book from the interlibrary loan to see the content on the page that is missing in the google books preview.  Royal broil  13:37, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I already nominated the article T:DYKT using the hook: Did You Know ... that despite failing health, American racer Joe Shear won four of his last five races? Sorry, I should have notified you. You will get credit for starting the article as long as it runs.  Royal broil  03:25, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
