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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Daron mann

Hello Topsikrets,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Daron mann for deletion, because it appears to duplicate an existing Wikipedia article, Daron Mann.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

TheFamousPeople.com as a source

Hi Topsikrets. I noticed that you recently used thefamouspeople.com as a source for biographical information in List of people from Port Elizabeth. Please note that there is general consensus that thefamouspeople.com does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the such information. (Discussions here and here). If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks. --Ronz (talk) 16:50, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Transfermarkt

Since much of its content is user-generated, Transfermarkt is not a reliable source. Please do not cite the website in articles, as you did with List of people from Port Elizabeth. Thank you. Sir Sputnik (talk) 02:41, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
