[edit] COI

You seem to have been editing some articles on the Ravenclaw family--which is OK, as long as they are notable,and you stick to content appropriate for Wikipedia. A biographic article in WP is supposed to be about the person who is the subject of it, not "his sisters and his cousins and his aunts". It is not a genealogy. I have a published genealogy for my family also, and one of them is a Nobel Prize winner. He's in here--put in by somebody else; the others are not.The article discusses his work, not his relatives. At least I think they are not--I have not actually looked.

"Family" articles are in my opinion reasonable instead of individual articles, but they should be a sketch of the whole family, not just sections to expand. Someone had put a proposed deletion tag on Ravensclaw family; there were 4 sketches in there , of which three had been expanded. since John Goldsborough Ravenshaw II was chairman of the East India Co., it seemed to me he was notable also, so I made an article out of it. I removed some of the mention of ancestors from the others. It is now time to either delete the article for the family, I can do that if you tell me, or to turn it into a proper general sketch. I leave you to it; to keep someone else from deleting it altogether, I've put on a proposed deletion as duplicate tag , which should keep it safe for a few days.
