Hello, my name is Zach.
I am the user who started/created the "Eddsworld" article that you recently commented for deletion. I am reletively new to Wikipedia and would appreciate some assistance from an expert Wikipedian. I will admit that there are many problems with the article, but I strongly believe that the subject meets the requirements of notability. I just need assistance in properly sourcing the article and making it more "neutral". If you could help me then it would bring much joy to me, but if this request is just a bother then please disregard this message. Please help, and thank-you for reading. Good-bye.Zach Winkler (talk) 21:07, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you believe that there is a reason to keep the redirect, you can request that administrators wait a while before deleting it. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.
I propose deleting the redirect, partly because he's the only Weston I know of in aviation and because a reader would have to type the upper case A then lower case P, etc.
Seems sensible to me :) Thanks, --Kateshortforbobtalk 12:28, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi Kateshortforbob - any thoughts on restoring the GKR page to an earlier time? It had real information, wasn't an attack page, was actively moderated (other than the regular vanalism). Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jyukumite (talk • contribs) 23:47, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Why did you erase it based on copyrights? I work for Mr. Mariotti and NFTE - I am not stealing their text. I am trying to update the site and add links to published articles. Can you please tell me how to keep the info up? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Essye.klempner (talk • contribs) 17:42, 23 April 2011
Hello Essye.klempner.
When you leave messages, please remember to "sign" your name, by putting ~~~~ (four tilde signs) at the end. This will add your name, and the date and time. You can also do this by clicking the 'sign' button, pictured to the right.
Also, you do not need to use a {{helpme}} here. When you leave a message on another user's talk page, they will see it. The 'helpme' is for asking a question on your own user talk page, when you want to get attention from any helper. (That is why I saw this help request).
Regarding the copyrighted material - because the text is on another website, we cannot use it unless the copyright holder (presumably the company) are prepared to release it. The way to do that is explained in WP:DCM#Granting us permission to copy material already online.
Two important notes;
All facts need a 'reliable source' (such as, a newspaper, book, etc). Claims such as "Considered one of today’s leading experts in education" should definitely not be added unless a good, independent reference is provided. Please see WP:V, WP:RS and WP:NPOV.
