A tag has been placed on File:Len Ashurst.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please add the appropriate fair use tag and rationale.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

de Villiers family entry you wrote

Hi, I happened upon your entries about my great grandfather Lord John Henry de Villiers and his descendants and noticed a bit of a muddle to do with my father Arthur Percy. As you mentioned, he graduated with a law degree from Magdelen College Oxford, where he had gone on a Rhodes Scholarship. He practised law in Cape Town for a short time but having sold Wynberg House he left South Africa to live on his farm in Kumeu, New Zealand. He may have joined the Bar in Auckland but he did not practise law. All he wanted was to farm. My brother Alexander Charles de Villiers has lived in the USA for many years and is an American citizen. 102.65.164.53 (talk) 20:47, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

@102.65.164.53:, on Wikipedia no one "owns" an article. If something is wrong then you can edit it. Though you should read Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines first. Sahaib3005 (talk) 20:51, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
