[edit] Kevin Maistros

I would like to see reliable sources, and reccomended ways of formatting them can be seen here. For now, just show me some on my talk page, and I'll allow a little leeway with the article, though I can't promise others will do the same. J Milburn (talk) 22:27, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but none of those constitute reliable sources. Some are primary, meaning that they have to be taken with a pinch of salt, and can't be used to help establish notability. Others are forums, which are always considered unreliable, with the possible exception of when someone notable is the one making the comments- but I wouldn't head down that road. The others appear to be very minor mentions- for instance, he deserves a mention on the pages relating to the albums, videos and songs he has worked on, and possibly on the pages about their respective bands, but these sources do not show enough to indicate that he is notable in his own right. Sorry. If there are any more sources, then please feel free to show me them, and perhaps take a read of our reliable source guidelines so you get an idea of what we are looking for.

I can't rereview the sources you provided, as I am in college, and almost every site on the 'net is filtered. However, there is another option available to us- if you wish to have time to work on the article with others, you could create it in a sandbox (for instance, User:Beaurouge/Kevin Maistros) and then contact me when you feel it is 'ready'- I could review the completed article and offer you advice on how to improve it, improve it myself or move it into the article space for you. This method ensures you have time to work on the article without having to worry about it getting deleted. Remember to cite your sources! J Milburn (talk) 15:06, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Ok then, create it in the sandbox I linked to, and then drop me a line when you feel it is complete, and I will offer my advice. J Milburn (talk) 11:51, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Categories and interlanguage links removed from page in user namespace

The User:Beaurouge/Kevin Maistros page is in user namespace rather than article namespace. Categories and interlanguage links are only to be used in article namespace; that is why I have removed those links from that page. Please do not replace them. 66.30.20.71 (talk) 15:41, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
