Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, but it appears you have written or added to an article about yourself, at Robert Steer Huthart. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to an existing article about yourself, please propose the changes on its talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was my page deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss it with the deleting administrator. Thank you. — Insertcleverphrasehere ^{(or here)} 20:26, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I am new to Wikipedia. This page I wrote about about my father Robert Steert Huthart. I am his youngest daughter, Danielle and I have created this page because there are many people seeking information about him as he has been suffering from an illness, and I would like to ensure his biography is accurate. The details are gathered from personal archives and articles. He is an accomplished business man, philanthropist, art collector and past military servant and highly recognized and regarded in Hong Kong. I hope deleting this page can be reconsidered. Thank you.

See The Golden Rule. Unfortunately Wikipedia requires multiple instances of 'significant coverage' in 'reliable sources' that are 'independent' of the subject. It does not appear as though any of the current sources meet all three criteria, and generally topics must have a minimum of two sources that meet all three criteria for the topic to be considered notable. I have performed searches, and found no other sources to meet the criteria for supporting notability. There are some subject specific additional criteria that might cause a topic to meet notability guidelines outside of the general notability guideline, but nothing stands out to me applying to Robert Steer Huthart. This isn't a slight on your dad, and I'm not saying that he isn't an important individual, but it might be better to put this information somewhere else online, as I don't think that this article would survive a trip to Articles for deletion. — Insertcleverphrasehere ^{(or here)} 22:16, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
