working on it

Hi Becky, I wanted to ask if you would please remove the annoying flags at the top of the page. We are working on the page and will get it to satisfaction as soon as possible. Brannon Bates' images are stuck in the Wiki system and cannot be removed or edited; so the best we can do is make it an official Wiki page. We are working on citing and links now. Thank you, Becket 162.207.1.66 (talk) 07:44, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What page are you referring to? ^BE _CK ^Y _SA ^{Y L}E _S 07:48, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brannon_Bates is the new page and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Brannon_Bates.jpg is the page we're having trouble deleting. If we could unite them somehow or delete the old one it would be great if that is possible. Why do we have to sign off with the four tilda's? 162.207.1.66 (talk) 08:16, 14 January 2015 (UTC) Hi Becky, I am tired and will check your messages in the morning. Thank you. Goodnite. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.207.1.66 (talk) 09:14, 14 January 2015 (UTC) Hi Becky, If there is anything else I can do to make the page more acceptable I can help. Thank you Chadpaul222 (talk) 09:36, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Chadpaul222: the "flags" at the top of the page are called templates and should not be removed until the issues with the article are resolved. The discussion to delete it is linked in the first template, and those discussions usually last at least one week, maybe up to three weeks. The second one, I have removed after checking the possible copyright violations. If you don't want the article deleted, then see what is brought up atWikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Brannon_Bates_(2nd_nomination). ^BE _CK ^Y _SA ^{Y L}E _S 17:13, 14 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. Thanks. Updates have been made to the page and the talks. It is still a work in progress but we're getting there. CP Chadpaul222 (talk) 21:31, 14 January 2015 (UTC) The Beckster! Hi Becky, I wanted to ask if there is a tutorial on how to do the citing / references? It's not as straight-forward as the other entries. Chadpaul222 (talk) 01:47, 15 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Chadpaul222: Help:Wiki_markup#References_and_citing_sources and Wikipedia:Citing_sources ^BE _CK ^Y _SA ^{Y L}E _S 10:31, 15 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

there should be enough verifiable cited references that the flags may be removed. The rest will be cited and written to perfection and we will post here once it has been approved by us and finished so you can begin scrutiny. Unless your grading policy is more harsh than i expected, in that case please let me know. Also, some of the details contain information regarding celebrities and I do not think a public forum is the proper place to discuss it. Chadpaul222 (talk) 02:47, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Chadpaul222: Thanks for the info, but this is best handled at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Brannon_Bates_(2nd_nomination) where the discussion about deleting the article is taking place. If the consensus there is to delete the article, then that will happen. I may be able to offer advice about editing, but if the article is deleted, then there won't be anything to edit. The AfD process has already started, the difference you can make is there. ^BE _CK ^Y _SA ^{Y L}E _S 07:50, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. We are working most diligently to settle it or have it deleted. Chadpaul222 (talk) 09:38, 16 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
