Nomination of Frederick Tibbenham for deletion

[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Frederick Tibbenham is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frederick Tibbenham until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article.

I have done some work to strengthen this article, as promised in answer to your Help Desk query. It's still weak in terms of biography, though. I've had a brief look at some of the stuff on the Facebook page (can't link to that from Wikipedia articles, I'm afraid) but you haven't put links to the source. What would be useful would be images we can use - do you have any you've taken yourself? - and some more biographical details of Tibbenham himself. Regards, Karenjc 20:36, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The rewrite is a million times better. Thank you very much. I could upload some images if I knew how to, but the problem is, quite a lot of the supporting information is either in private collections (i,e, Daily Mail archives) to which the public have no access/right of use, or undated cuttings, so probably very difficult to have accepted as of any real substance.

I'll ask for permission for the pictures that I do have, and add them as soon as it's been OK'd. Again, thank you very much for your amazing work.

NB The house is currently suffering flooding from an unknown source, which I think is an attempt to demolish it, and this article is part of its preservation.

All good wishes,
