Proposed deletion of Bernard "Bernie" Miller edit

 

The article Bernard "Bernie" Miller www.aplaceforeveryrace.com has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Sources requested edit

Hello sir, with regard to the article about you at Bernard Miller (pastor), I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of some significant news coverage that you might have received, i.e., not passing mentions.) Wikipedia has strict notability standards, and so we have to be sure that subjects meet these criteria. Feel free to post some links either here on your talk page (I'll add it to my watchlist) or you can post them at Talk:Bernard Miller (pastor). We really need to cite statements about "man of the year" recognition and other major recognition you have received. Minor achievements don't do a lot to establish notability. Also another note, though you are not forbidden from writing about yourself, you obviously have a conflict of interest, and you are encouraged to only make non-controversial changes and instead post edit requests on the article's talk page for anything else. This may surprise you but sometimes people have difficulty writing objectively about themselves.   Thank you, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:34, 3 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

January 2015 edit

  Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Supa Dupa Fly. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 16:46, 3 February 2015 (UTC)Reply
