- @ Maqbool ahmed sifu: - there is functionally no content in this draft, and is thus completely unsuitable for being a wiki article. Nosebagbear ( talk) 18:32, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
Hello. I'm new to wikipedia, and I created two drafts a few minutes ago. The first one is called "Jack Gore", I made it for an American actor. However I discovered the page "Jack Gore" already exists (a deceased rugby player), so I created a new wikipedia draft called "Jack Gore (actor)". Is it possible to delete or fix the first one? Both pages are exactly the same, the title just differs. Thank you very much for your time.

- Mxra Hi Welcome to AfC help desk. You could place {{ Db-G7}} on top of 'Jack Gore' page and insert "request article to be deleted by creator" on the 'edit summary' prior saving/publishing the edit. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA( talk)

Request on 17:23:44, 2 March 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by WmGaddy
What I submitted is a well researched account of an incident that happened to Jamestown colonist, Alice Lukin Page. There is an extensive article on her husband, John Page, but nothing about her. If I google his name, I get a Wicki article. If I google her name I get nothing. I feel that women who played a part in the founding of our country should be given at least some historical notice. Your editor claimed it appeared to be part of a story. Of course, it is a part of a story; all history is part of a story!

- It is so poorly written that it's difficult to tell what it's about, and please read WP:REFB for help with formatting sources. Theroadislong ( talk) 17:30, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
- you might consider expanding the page on her husband if there is not enough material to support a stand alone page. We can create a redirect for her name there. That is commonly done. Legacypac ( talk) 18:49, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
