I want to add a new Article concerning the British cyclist Tommy Godwin, more information can be seen at [1]. the problem is that there is also another famous Brithish cyclist called Tommy Godwin who has an entry.

Can someone help me get this article started. Tommy Godwin holds the OFFICIAL world record for the most miles cycled in a year. The UCI banned any future attempts after recognising his acheivement so the record will never be officially broken. Tommy was recognised by the Ciy of Birmingham (UK) several years ago and I have many press articles that attest to his acheivements. Therefore he is DEFINITELY notable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Davebarter (talkcontribs)

Thank you for your assistance. I have created the page from your link and would be grateful if someone could advise as to whether I have pitched the content correclty for Wikipedia.

Edward (Teddy) Hale (cyclist) moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Edward (Teddy) Hale (cyclist), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
