- Hi C. Fred. How do you flag an entry for removal on the grounds that it is about a junior prof with no accomplishments worth mentioning and was clearly created by himself for self-promotion?--BlueonGray (talk) 23:23, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
- Make sure all those allegations hold water, then you'll want to follow the instructions at WP:Proposed deletion or WP:Articles for deletion.
- You could also tag the page for speedy deletion. However, I'm looking at the page right now, and if it meets those criteria, I'll delete it. If it doesn't as an administrator, I'd decline the deletion, and you'd have to go one of the other two routes anyway. —C.Fred (talk) 23:29, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
- I disagree that the page was created by the subject to self-promote. However, I do agree that the article had no clear assertion of significance or importance, so it was deleted under speedy deletion criterion A7. Had you wanted to tag the article—or if you need to tag a similar article in the future—the tag is {{db-bio}}. —C.Fred (talk) 23:34, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks, Fred. This is good to know. I appreciate the tips.--BlueonGray (talk) 23:53, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
/* note - BLPN - Ricardo Duchesne*/
Hi, there is a thread at the BLP noticeboard here about a couple of detrimental edits you have made to the Ricardo Duchesne BLP. Feel free to comment there explaining your position or not as you feel but please don't add opinions and suchlike to the article. We will discuss and help you in all policy matters but you do yourself no favors by violating policies and guidelines, There are hundreds of thousand other articles you can enjoy improving and I hope you will stay and do that, thanks.

- You are again disruptive on the article. Gun Powder Ma (talk) 08:43, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
- Hi. There is an incident in which you may have been involved: click. Regards Gun Powder Ma (talk) 09:01, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
- The Wikipedia entry for Ricardo Duchesne has no justification for its existence. There is good reason to believe that it was created by Duchesne himself. I have therefore nominated it for deletion. If you can provide any evidence that Duchesne meets the criteria of a notable scholar, then please do so.--BlueonGray (talk) 18:45, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

It is plainly obvious that you know Duchesne and have only come to WP to disrupt the article because the two of you have had an argument in a Canadian newspaper this February: This BlueonGray (navigate to Comments on this Article: Posted by Blue on Gray, Feb 12, 2011 5:28 PM and Apr 24, 2011 10:55 PM) is you and soon after the incident you registered here. Since then you have only edited the article on Duchesne, invariably in a negative manner. What you do here is a personal crusade, which is against the spirit and policy of WP. WP:Battleground: Wikipedia is not a place to hold grudges, import personal conflicts, carry on ideological battles. Way to go my friend, way to go, you do all of this.
