I have sent you a note about a page you started
editHi Dmarsch. Thank you for your work on Bertram Sacktor. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:
A worthwhile biography to start, although it's only a stub at present. Note that when adding references there are a range of different citations templates that can help fill in relevant details; avoid referencing using 'bare urls', as they are subject to link rot. Consider adding a few more categories too.

Deletion discussion about Paul B. Wishart
editHello Dmarsch, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Paul B. Wishart, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul B. Wishart.
Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Clearfrienda}}
. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~
. Thanks!

editHi Dmarsch. Thank you for your work on M. Powell Lawton. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:
Thanks for starting this new page for an influential mid-20th century clinical psychologist. Much of the draft was based around a NYT obituary, but it's helpful to use a wider range of sources when you can. Adding to relevant categories also helps interested to find your page (as does linking it from a few more articles).
