Hello Missvain, I was looking for information on author Wayne Gladstone and found you had recently deleted his wikipedia page for lack of content written about him (as opposed to content that he has written). At the time the original petition for deletion was filed in 2010, he was a columnist for Cracked.com, as well as a contributor to various other online publications and creator of a popular video series. At this point in time, he is also an author of the Notes From The Internet Apocalypse trilogy. It seemed that many interviews and writings about him were overlooked and I would like to know how one would go about reinstating his page. Links of reference include: 1. An interview with author Wayne Gladstone on Tor.com http://www.tor.com/blogs/2014/03/the-pop-quiz-at-the-end-of-the-universe-wayne-gladstone 2. An interview with author Wayne Gladstone in Esquire http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/news/a27719/what-is-the-internet-doing-to-us-really/ 3. A review of his novel Notes from The Internet Apocalypse in The Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/books/notes-from-the-internet-apocalypse-the-tropic-of-serpents-and-the-stone-boatmen/2014/03/18/bcfb869c-a9e0-11e3-b61e-8051b8b52d06_story.html 4. A review of his novel in the Onion A/V Club http://www.avclub.com/review/debut-novel-cracked-writer-just-trolling-its-reade-201674 5. A review of his novel in the Toronto Star http://www.thestar.com/entertainment/books/2014/03/12/notes_from_the_internet_apocalypse_review.html 6. A review of his novel in Kirkus https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/wayne-gladstone/notes-from-the-internet-apocalypse/
I believe we could also find more, however this is already a significantly greater amount of written press about the author and his works than many other figures who still have pages dedicated to them. For instance, this is far greater depth than the information shown on voice actor Lucky Yates (about whom there is no written press) /info/en/?search=Lucky_Yates Further, Wayne Gladstone is already mentioned in several other Wikipedia pages and therefore has a fair amount of click-through information on him already present on Wikipedia that deserves to be housed on its own individual page. Examples of places that he is already mentioned by name on Wikipedia are: 1. As a Cracked columnist: /info/en/?search=Cracked.com 2. As a notable graduate of Syosset High School /info/en/?search=Syosset_High_School 3. As a reference for this Blade Runner entry /info/en/?search=Themes_in_Blade_Runner 4. As a winner of Literary Death Match /info/en/?search=Literary_Death_Match
I hope this proves sufficient to reinstate his page. Thank you very much for your assistance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anotherskirt ( talk • contribs) 19:33, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
