Hi

Thanks for deciding to contribute to Wikipedia. However your article Tomas Shatner appears to be totally fictitious. It has been deleted. Please do not add nonsense to Wikipedia. If I am wrong, or for some reason you think what you wrote should be kept please explain why here. DJ Clayworth 18:23, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

The article is not fictitious, and in saskatchewan Tomas Shatner has had a sort of resurgence recently, becoming more popular as old newspaper clippings have resurfaced. He is not perhaps as popular as i indicated in the article, but in Saskatchewan and in Swift Current at least, Shatner lore is very well known. How can I resubmit the article?

To start with you need some sources to back up what you say about Tomas Shatner. You also need to be very sure that everything you say about this person is correct. The picture you added was of Tomas Shatner, head of the Native American Publishing Corporation, who would be very surprised to learn that he was a Richard Nixon imporsonator who died in 1985. Please read Wikipedia:Verification and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view before you re-submit anything. Also read Wikipedia:Biography to be sure this person is notable enough to deserve an article. If you do that, and add verifiable references to the article, and stick to correct and neutral reporting, your article will not be deleted. DJ Clayworth 18:42, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
