Welcome!

Hello, Rjb79, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Roy Bonds, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

The article Roy Bonds has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article. The nominator also raised the following concern:

All biographies of living people created after March 18, 2010, must have references.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Discussion at Talk:Roy Bonds

[edit]

Thanks for your efforts to improve the article Roy Bonds. They are appreciated, but I believe that the article is still not of sufficient quality for Wikipedia and may be deleted soon. I have written a short discussion of what I see as the main issues at Talk:Roy Bonds#Main problems with this article. Please can you take a look.

Please remember when editing Roy Bonds or any other article that all Wikipedia content must be verifiable, written from a neutral point of view and contain no original research. Editors are encouraged to remove any content that does not meet these criteria, particularly in the case of biographies of living people.

Thanks again, --MegaSloth (talk) 15:10, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
