Please go into the "my preferences" link at the top of your screen, go to the "editing" tab, and uncheck "Mark all edits minor by default". Thank you. --BigDT 20:40, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Norman L. Hatch

I have done a few edits on this new biographical stub. You will need reliable sources for this article to verify the notability of the subject. This is just a friendly "heads up" so that you, or other interested editors, may be able to put these in place. Cheers! --Stormbay 02:37, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I knew Mr. Hatch. I studied Latin and learned Lacrosse from him. To avoid copyright problems a la Mr. Bissell, I pulled the bio information from his obit. As I have time I would like to get more information up which is not copyrighted in any way. I don't know whether Exeter renewed the copyright on the Bulletin issue which contained Mr. Hatch's obit, if they haven't, I'll cut and paste that.

Proposed deletion of Norman L. Hatch

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Norman L. Hatch, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Proposed deletion of Wheelwright Hall

The article Wheelwright Hall has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable prep school dormitory.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
