So is the article on James Villanueva good to go or do I have to still do more editing and inputting more required information etc to ensure that it meets the Wikipedia standard and does not get deleted  ? Your help and direction in the above matter would be most appreciated. Kind regards - PS. Thanks also for your previous quick replies.

You'll need to format it properly (click on the editing help link for help), and you need to provide references, for example a link to an official page about him showing he has all those Phds and has written all those books.

Also, please stop moving this discussion from page to page will ya. I left my first message on your talk page, to which you replied on the article talk page, and when I replied there you left the message above on your user page. Generally, the norm is to reply to a comment on an article talk page on the same page, and to a message on a user page either on the same page right below the message, or on the talk page of the user who left the message.

And lastly, please sign your posts in the standard Wikipedia way, by ending them with four tildes (~~~~), which will automatically be changed into your username and the date -- Hirudo 02:36, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Firstly, sorry about the mistakes made (jumping from page to page) - I've still got a large learning curve here. I will work on formatting the article etc. asap. (Also, would the linking to his official website be sufficient to meet Wikipedia's requirements and get him to pass the "PROFTEST" ?) And here's signing my post the "right" way ....see I may be slow at the onset, but I can certainly learn !  :-) ProfJV 02:46, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

No problem, everyone is new at some point. Linking to his official page (preferable in a separate "External links" section) would be a good start, but getting the references from a different source would be better; something he wrote himself is not exactly adding credibility to the claims.

A good reference might be a link to something like the faculty page at PWU, except that he doesn't seem to be listed on there. I can't immediately find any evidence that he actually is a professor there, so you'll have to find one yourself.

One more thing. The {{prod}} tag is still on the page. Unless you remove it before June 8th, the page will probably be deleted. If you do remove it, please make sure your edit summary states why you think the page should not be deleted. (see WP:PROD)

And coming back to the pages thing, you should probably move this whole discussion to your talk page, which is more appropriate than your user page. -- Hirudo 03:00, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
