Quotation marks should not be used around quotes, as you did on Margaret Mead, unless they are being used as a caption of an image, see Wikiquote:Manual of style#Punctuation style. – Ilovemydoodle (Not a sockpuppet) (talk / e-mail) 00:56, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi @UDScott,

This proposed deletion was not for notability concerns, but rather because there are no quotes yet on the page. If you have some sourced quotes to add, that would fix this issue. Thanks! ~ UDScott (talk) 14:36, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Ok, I understand.

I’ve added a quotation and a source. Therefore I removed the prod template. Kindly review and confirm.

Best Uncle Bash007 (talk) 15:47, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

That will work - thanks! I added a link to her WP page and some categories as well. ~ UDScott (talk) 16:36, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Uncle Bash007 (talk) 20:48, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi Uncle Bash007, I see that you have added a page for Onimim Jacks. I also see that thinks it should be deleted. Can you have a look please. cheers, Ottawahitech (talk) 14:42, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Ottawahitech,

I’ve added a quotation to the article (even though you didn’t specify the reason for PROD).

Best, Uncle Bash007 (talk) 11:28, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi Uncle Bash007, Thanks for adding. a quotation. BTW I am not the one who PROD tagged the article you created. If you want to see who edited a page click the view history link at the top right hand corner, I think? Ottawahitech (talk) 11:32, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
