[edit] Deletion review
That probably wasn't the most tactful way of putting things on User talk:Mailer diablo, given that it's an approach almost guaranteed to elicit a defensive response. I've tried to mediate a little bit. Mailer diablo seems to be willing to userfy the article for you to work on in your user space. Are you willing to work on producing a fully-sourced no-original-research article if xe does this? Do you think that you have the source material available that you can do this? If so, please talk to Mailer diablo, a little more tactfully, and ask for this. If you do, xe will probably happily userfy the article for you, for you to work on.

- Here's a relatively recent copy, missing a couple more references added after this backup. It shows an article that's far from questionable, to everything that anyone's mentioned anyway. JohnPritchard 22:35, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

- I've noticed you have recreated the article. By process it will be deleted outright, but considering Uncle G's opinon I'll pass things over to him to consider the possible options. I'm sorry for taking a long time to reply, I've some real life work to deal with. I'll leave a message on Uncle G's talkpage. - Mailer Diablo 08:24, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
