Draft:Mark Allen Tate has been declined several times. After the latest decline User:Krstntate22 apparently just copied the content of the draft into a new article regardless. MKFI (talk) 13:16, 9 October 2023 (UTC)


 * I apologize if I went the wrong route! This platform gave me the choice to publish via approval or directly.
 * During the former, the article was declined several times due to not enough sources listed. However, Mark Allen Tate's page was modeled after those of Rick Joy and Al Beadle (who are his peers).
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Beadle
 * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Joy
 * Mark Allen Tate's page includes 14 independent, reliable source references. Forgive me, but I am unclear as to why Al Beadle only needs 1 to justify inclusion? Krstntate22 (talk) 13:49, 9 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Architecture and Oklahoma.  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 15:01, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep, based on the number of magazine articles already cited in the article that are substantially about Tate. I don't know what the problem was at AfC, some reviewers think they're there only to accept perfect articles. Sionk (talk) 12:17, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
 * NB the article needs moving to Mark Tate if it is kept. He's clearly referred to as Mark Tate. Sionk (talk) 12:22, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi Sionk. Thanks for weighing in. I can move the page to Mark Tate. Is there a way to easily do that or do I need to recreate it there? Krstntate22 (talk) 16:58, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
 * It's an easy thing to do, but my recommendation would be to wait for the outcome of this discussion. Sionk (talk) 12:19, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
 * OK, I will. Thank you for your help! Krstntate22 (talk) 13:13, 11 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep. The page has a critical mass of independent and verifiable references. It is clear that Mark Allen Tate is an accomplished and recognized residential architect. We woefully lack documentation on comparable professionals in other communities and this information will only become more valuable in future.Spaceagepop (talk) 04:55, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
