Move request
[edit]Some time ago, an article in your userspace User:Jkjacobs/Desmond MacNamara was tagged with a request to be moved to the live area of Wikipedia. We're sorry that did not get processed until now; such articles did not receive attention.
To rectify this, we have moved your article into the Articles for creation process - where it will be reviewed as soon as possible. It will either be moved to the live area (if acceptable, or if we can fix it up) - or, we will 'decline' the suggestion or place it 'on hold', explaining our reasoning to you.
The article is (for now) in Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Desmond MacNamara.
You may still edit the article to improve it, if you wish.
We will inform you of the outcome right here, on your user talk page.
If you require any help, at any time, you can either;
- Leave a message on my own talk page; OR
- Use a {{helpme}} - please create a new section at the end of your own talk page, put {{helpme}}, and ask your question - remember to 'sign' your name by putting ~~~~ at the end; OR
- Talk to us live, with this or this.--SPhilbrickT 11:16, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
