Proposed deletion of Ken N. Gidge

edit
 

The article Ken N. Gidge has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Dismas|(talk) 06:06, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

For good for for evil, a new user's contributions are much more carefully scrutinized than an experienced editor's are. The warning I left for you was due to the alarms that get tripped when a new or an IP user deletes large quantities of information from an article without explanation. You will notice that when you edit, there is a box down below that says "edit summary". Please make use of this, and explain the changes you are making to an article, especially when the changes could be seen as potential vandalism. If you have any questions about this or ANYTHING, please feel free to send me a message, I would be more than happy to help you out in any way I can. Have a good day!
