User talk:Ivor1889

I believe that a biography of John A Mackay is needed for Wikipedia. I have prepared a biography including references and placed it on my user page. Since I am a new contributor to Wikipedia, I would like to know what the next step would be to move this biography forward, for posting. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Ivor1889 (talk) 14:35, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

John A. Mackay

I Wikified the article, but it still needs more work to comply with the manual of style. Let me know if I can help. – ukexpat (talk) 22:43, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Now that the article is in the mainspace, you should either blank your user page or place the {{db-g7}} template on it requesting that it be deleted. Just a thought. – ukexpat (talk) 16:59, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the message -- I have tagged the page for deletion with the {{db-g7}} template. An admin should be along soon to actually do the deletion. – ukexpat (talk) 19:49, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Now deleted. If you are thinking about creating more articles in userspace first, you should do so in a user subpage rather than directly on you user page. Let me know if you need any help with that.  – ukexpat (talk) 21:16, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
