Welcome!

Hello, and Welcome to the Wikipedia, Jon P Anderson! Thanks for the contributions to the Jon Anderson biography. Here are a few perfunctory tips that will, hopefully, enhance your acculturation into the Wikipedia experience:

And some odds and ends: Cite your sources, Civility, Conflict resolution, How to edit a page, How to write a great article, Pages needing attention, Peer review, Policy Library, Verifiability, Village pump, and Wikiquette; also, you can sign your name on any page by typing four tildes: ~~~~. Best of luck, Jon P Anderson, and most importantly, have fun! Ombudsman (talk) 00:56, 27 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Just an fyi

Editors on Wikipedia usually do not edit articles about themselves. There are general guidelines here Wikipedia:Autobiography. Awotter (talk) 06:04, 27 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Do you have any reliable sources for the information you've added to your article? It might seem silly, and undoubtedly what you say is true, but everything on Wikipedia needs to be cited with reliable third-party sources or else it may be subject to deletion, and we can't really take your word for it. I'm sure you've been written up in various publications that back up what you're saying. We can help you with the citation format if you can provide the sources. If you have questions it's probably best to ask them on the Jon Anderson (runner) page. Thanks! Katr67 (talk) 06:38, 5 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Lester E. Anderson

edit

Hello Jon P Anderson,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Lester E. Anderson for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, 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. Thanks!

I wrote this several Years ago. My father’s bio. I don’t understand how you found it “promotional” and you did not indicate what you found to justify rejecting it. Jon P Anderson (talk) 02:56, 13 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please tell me what in the piece I wrote is promotional. Jon P Anderson (talk) 01:58, 13 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
