Hi, Raphaelite. I've put the non-copyright part of the page on a temporary page at User:Raphaelite/Temp. The page had to be fully deleted because the copyright material was the bulk of the text in it, and without deletion that text would remain in the page's history. If you want to write the biography section in your own words, you can copy the formatted text from the temp page to Thomas Nelstrop. When you're done with the temp page, drop me another line and I'll delete it. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 15:36, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
