Looks okay but could do with a few more references. The section on procedure for example doesn't have any and there are one or two paragraphs in other sections that lack references. It could use a picture if you can find one that isn't copyright. I don't have the expertise to comment on the content but these people should be able to help. Just leave a message on their talk page.--Ykraps (talk) 08:13, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
I really need help with the layout. I have tried to follow other wrestlers pages and I am having an issue with the boldness and size of the different headers. Also, the listing of moves are not lining up right. Please help with getting the layout of the page looking like the rest.
Lastly, how do you add a photo with stats to the right side like the other pages?
THANKS

- When you ask about a photo and other stuff on the right hand side of the page, I think you are asking how to create an "Infobox". You might try Template:Infobox person, or look around for a more specialized template that fits your subject.
- I noticed that your references are not done in a standard manner. You need to change this. Wikipedia:Citing sources ("A quick how-to") shows how to do this. If you plan to use any one source in several different places in your article, I suggest you use "named references". See WP:FOOT for instructions.
- For markup questions such as header boldness see Wikipedia:Cheatsheet
I am in the process of creating a page for a local sports commentator and journalist in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am assembling the information, adding the links and trying to clean up the article, as it is a work in progress. Please help with cleanup and with your suggestions.

How do I get access back to the text of the article I just submitted to post for the first time?

- If you wrote your article using the "New Article Wizard" and saved it to your "userspace", finding it again has to be one of the most frustrating activities you can perform in Wikipedia. Here is how. You should bookmark this link. You go to Special:PrefixIndex, put your username (GeorgeRingo) in the appropriate field, select "User" as the namespace in the drop down menu, and click "Go". You will get a list of the pages in your userspace, which will include your new article. Tkotc (talk) 19:43, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
- But if you are referring to your "Blast and Whisper" article, after I glanced at your Talk page, I see that it was "speedily deleted". If that's the one, you could rewrite it in your userspace (see Wikipedia:Your first article) and when you think it is ready for prime time, ask for feedback here again.Tkotc (talk) 19:47, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Please tell me I have done everything that needs to be done for this. I have worked on this for months now and wanted it to be completed by this time. Michael V. Roberts deserves his wikipedia page, I am in no form connected with Mr. Roberts, just an individual who is aware of his accomplishments.

- I looked at your userspace draft. Although you have a wealth of detail in the article, what is missing are inline citations that allow a reader to see where the various facts came from. See: Wikipedia:Inline citation. On your talk page, I notice that the issue of referencing was brought up in regards to this article in August by user Chzz. Sometimes the Wikipedia help pages aren't as illustrative as need be, so in order that you see what I am getting at, look at another Wikipedia biographical page of a wealthy individual. I picked Howard Hughes and it seems to illustrate how to write an article using inline references to verify factual claims. This is what you need to do. Please ask for help on this point if you find the mechanics confusing. Tkotc (talk) 03:57, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
I am requesting a review of this article for whether or not it meets the tone of neutrality and notability requirements.
