[edit] South African Barbarians found under google search

Thanks for your note

Not sure I understand the question. If you type the name of the article in the search bar on the side, it will go to the article. As to Google, the robots will find the article before long.

Unfortunately, I don't think the subject meets notability requirements. Read the notability requirements and see of the subject is notable. Otherwise the article will be deleted.

Hope this helps. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 13:50, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for you note. No placement is fine. But please read the guidelines on notability WP:N and verifiability WP:V. Incorporate information in the article that shows the subject meets the one and have a list of sources at the end that show from where you got the information. The phrase, "the first multi-racial South African team to tour outside South Africa" goes a long way to suggest notability. "The first" to do something is a big plus in an article. I think the article looks fine for starters. Just need to credit sources.

Oh, please don't blank your talk page. The welcome has links to useful guidelines. Also, it's easier to follow a conversational thread if the thread progresses on page. Hope this helps. Cheers, :) Dlohcierekim 14:14, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
