Keep

I created a couple of missing pages for Watford MPs (Arnold Sandwith Ward, William Helmore) so that the succession boxes on the pages of the existing MPs would work, i.e. you can go from first to last clicking through the sequence of boxes. The notability criteria states membership of a national assembly is enough. Also, asking for the page to be deleted less than an hour after creation... come on! This page is a valid stub. Bazj (talk) 20:33, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's not really a valid stub since it does not have any information other than templates. One hour is more than enough time to come up with a decent introduction and maybe a paragraph about this gentleman. ... discospinster _talk 20:53, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice of you to volunteer my time, and to assume I had any interest other than establishing an end-to-end series of Watford MPs for the succession boxes to work properly. Nonetheless, it's done. Bazj (talk) 09:37, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It took me approximately 30 seconds to write an introduction and about one minute more to locate his birth and death years, which is all that needed to be done to create a proper stub. So, you're welcome. ... discospinster _talk 19:03, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for being so pissy. My focus was on the succession box, not Arnold Sandwith Ward, and I took some offence at being put up for speedy deletion almost as soon as the article was created. I didn't have the right attitude there, my apologies to you Bazj (talk) 08:48, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, and I apologize for my equally pissy response. ... discospinster _talk 13:27, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
