Could you please explain why you think that the Michael Dobson (author) page reads like an advertisement? Twice now you've reverted with no explanation at all. Simply placing a template on a page and walking away isn't necessarily very helpful. 24.148.0.83 (talk) 01:37, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I know you added it again, but why? I mean, I'll even take the little's explanation to mean that you have a valid reason. Just give me a sentence, a phrase, a few words... anything. Try as I might, I can't understand why you think the article in its current state reads as an advertisement, and you haven't given me any clues to go by. 24.148.0.83 (talk) 01:45, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, well, that's something of an insight to your thought process then. I'd like to seek out a third opinion though, and I'll drop the subject based on what they have to say. 24.148.0.83 (talk) 01:51, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I found this on WP:3O. I don't see anything that's immediately wrong with this article. It seems like a fairly well-written biography and doesn't scream WP:ADVERT to me. The only possible problem I see is the article is mostly WP:OR and lacking in sources. User:Diego Grez, could you provide some specific reasons for why you think the article sounds like an ad?

I think most of it comes from the Dragon magazine article, but I could go back and check - maybe more citations would help? I also agree that it could use more than one source, to help strengthen its WP:V and WP:N, so hopefully someone at some point will come up with the goods. ;) 24.148.0.83 (talk) 04:09, 18 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
