Also, I noticed you created a page for Steve Wisdom. That page has already been created and speedily deleted tonight. I don't know if you created the second copy or not, but I'm listing the page for proposed deletion, which is a slower process. You are welcome to contest the proposed deletion of the page as instructed in the proposed deletion tag. Also (and this is more in line with strict process), you can contest the original speedy deletion at Wikipedia:Deletion review. The record may be helpful: [1]. Feel free to ask me if you need help with any of it. Cheers and happy editing! --Kchase02 (T) 10:01, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Steve Wisdom

You removed the redirect and restored the previous content. Can you source any of the claims in this article? A Google serach for "Steve Wisdom" Manchester Trading produces only 5 hits. "Steve Wisdom" wiz produces 46 hits. That doesn't seem to back up the a famous Hedge Fund Manager statememt. If this is kept, it needs to be sourced. If it cannot be verified, it should be removed. Thanks. -- JLaTondre 22:39, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
