I would like to question the Deletion of the part of this article that mentioned Odiham Being William Hiscocks home. I do not understand why it has been deleted. He is a notable resident and reasonably famous in the local area for impersonations and political influence. "It is also home to William Hiscock, minor celebrity, proffesional impersonator and much loved member of the North Wanborough Community."


Can you cite a source for his notability? -FisherQueen (Talk) 18:52, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply


Information on William Hiscock, his political influence and Entertainment work may be found in Fleet Library, Hampshire Records office and the National Records office for chartered Impressionists.
Sounds like he doesn't meet the notability standard, then, which requires writing by independent nontrivial real souces. -FisherQueen (Talk) 18:59, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

ERRRRMMM I dont think so. The Records in Hampshire Records office contain newspaper articles and reviews of his work

Excellent! Newspaper articles! You can post the titles, what newspaper the appeared in, and the dates here for verification. A link to the National Records Office for Chartered Impressionists would also be helpful; google doesn't show any evidence that this organization exists.-FisherQueen (Talk) 19:04, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

The National Records Office for Chartered Impressionists has 312 members. It is not accessable through the internet due to the confidentiality of its members. Information may only be seen 10 years after the date information was recorded or with permission of the subject.

Well, once you can demonstrate that any of these sources actually exist- and don't worry, you have all the time in the world- then the community can discuss whether this person is truly notable. The current evidence seems to suggest that you are inventing the sources, so the burden to prove their existence is on you. -FisherQueen (Talk) 19:13, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Im glad to hear you are cooperating. How might i show you these sources.

Just scan a copy of the newspaper article and upload it. -FisherQueen (Talk) 20:15, 18 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

I've got rid of it. In addition to being unsourced, it's a violation of WP:WEASEL. Hut 8.5 17:52, 24 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
