Speedy deletion nomination of Joseph Frank McLaughlin

Hello TJMcLaughlin1,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Joseph Frank McLaughlin for deletion in response to your request.

If you didn't intend to make such a request and don't want the article to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Xx236 (talk) 06:12, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

Joseph Frank McLaughlin moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Joseph Frank McLaughlin, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Also, because your username and the article subject have the same name, you may have a conflict of interest (click to read what this means). This often happens and usually isn't a problem, it just needs to be clarified. If you are connected to the subject, just state so on your user page. You do not have to reveal any personal details (and I personally would discourage this), just state you have a connection to the subject of the article. If you are not connected to the subject of the article, just disregard this message.

Please don't let this discourage you, the above is a very common occurrence. I hope you continue to edit and wish you well.   // Timothy :: talk  18:05, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
