I'm sorry, that doesn't even begin to be an explanation of what you're doing to fix the problem, plus, any explanation goes on the talk page of the article in question. Nashville Monkey 12:17, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Paul Clough, Steve Tyrer, Steve Bannister

These are all being discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Clough. Please do contribute your thoughts on the question. I have to say, unless they've played for St Helens first team, the chances aren't good that they'll be kept. Cheers ! Angus McLellan (Talk) 16:18, 3 December 2006 (UTC)


Paul Clough has played first team. Other two are additions to the first team and so fail to meet the protocol for space on Wikipedia

Yes, but have they played a first team match for any other team ? Capped Under-19 I suppose ? People are open to persuasion ... have they been interviewed on TV, papers, magazines ? Any big features on them in the press ? Stuff like that makes a difference ! Have a read at the WP:BIO page and you'll see what kind of things people look for. And please sign comments with four tildes. Like ~~~~ ← that. Thanks ! Angus McLellan (Talk) 16:43, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Paul Clough played professional rugby league back in the 2005 season, also playing first grade rugby league for St Helens in the Super League in the 2006 season. He has featured in magazines and also numerous regional papers.~~~~ User:Londo06 (Talk) 17:12, 3 December 2006

Well, it was the other two guys I meant, Clough is in no danger of being deleted. Anything about them ? Angus McLellan (Talk) 17:34, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

Both Tyrer and Bannister have played no first team rugby football. I am happy that they do not meet the specifications for Wikipedia usage. I agree that they would of limited interest to those outside those who would already know about these new players to the St Helens Rugby League squad. ~~~~ User:Londo06 (Talk) 18:00, 3 December 2006

Hmm, you haven't quite got the signature right. Just 4 ~s is all you need. If you want, you can make a copy of the the Steves in a sandbox under your user page, like User:Londo06/Steve Tyrer. Copy everything, except any stub templates or categories. That way, when they do play for the first team, you can recreate them more easily. Once you've made a copy somewhere, just add {{db-author}} to the top of the page, and they will be deleted. If you need a hand, just leave a note here and I can make the copies for you. All the best, Angus McLellan (Talk) 18:58, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I also would have no further problem with Paul Clough if references to the mainstream magazine articles emphasizing his noteriety were to be placed into the article. Nashville Monkey 22:19, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright violations

Be careful when creating articles. In paticular, please do not copy significant amounts of text directly from other web pages, as you did with Ade Gardner, Willie Talau and Maurie Fa'asavalu. This is a violation of copyright law. Robdurbar 17:10, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

I reverted your changes on Ade Gardner. In paticular, you removed the player from his category, reinserted copyrighted material and reinserted text that was in an improper tone for an enyclopedia. --Robdurbar 18:14, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
Content added on Harlequins RL players eg. Michael Worrincy seems to be pretty much lifted from the club official biographies too. Its good to add the facts added but I think some of the more subjective stuff like playing style and future potential of a player needs to have the source cited or to be left out Jbuzza 10:04, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
I edited Mark McLinden article to hopefully avoid such issues. Maybe you could use this as a basis to review some of your other work. Jbuzza 21:06, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
