Stephen Waddington

edit

Hello Hormorkunmy. I was about to send Stephen Waddington to AfD when i noticed that you asked for a refund of the article a month and a half ago; it is still in the same state it was at that time, very much as it was when the previous deletion discussion was started. Do you have plans to improve the article, to show that he does meet our notability guidelines? If so, and i'm not trying to rush or push you, i'll be happy to leave it; if not, i think it should probably go to AfD again. Happy days ~ LindsayHello 11:37, 24 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
