I've left queries at User talk:BabelStone/Stump that seem not to have been read. I would like to know the status of the proposed page about my background. If the decision is that this page is problematic, it should probably just be deleted.

- The draft seems stale to me - it has not been edited (except by a bot) in over a year. According to User talk:BabelStone that editor is on a break since June; I cannot tell when they will return. You may want to leave a note at that talk page; otherwise they might miss the note at the draft's talk page.
- At a glance the draft's sources are all primary sources: Your own books or the websites of organizations you're affiliated with. Wikipedia articles should be based on reliable sources that are independent of the subject, such as newspaper articles about you or peer-reviewed papers discussing your work (written by others, not by yourself). Thus a new book you have written won't really help unless it has been the subject of third-party reviews. Huon (talk) 03:45, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

editPlease do not use this account any more. In case you have forgotten, you created Gstump (talk · contribs) a year ago. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 01:06, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
- I don't think that welcoming a good faith editor with accusations of socking is very helpful. That account was created nearly six years ago and was only responsible for a single edit! Gregory, it is fine to continue using this account as long as you stick to it and do not use the previous account as well (or vice versa if you prefer). BabelStone (talk) 16:45, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
