| I don't see how any one has a right to delete some ones work from here. Misplaced Pages is a Encyclopedia for people to gain knowledge about things in life, pop culture and things from around the world. The Wolf Hunter film it's self is a film that has lots of fans and supporters as does the character. I think just because its not as well known as Freddy or Jason does not mean it should not be on here. I have already seen that some one else has edited the article as well. I think that if this does go off its a shame and what kind of Encyclopedia for the people rob people from learning about films and characters from a independent film. | |||

| I'm not sure where this discussion is coming from, but people born in Northern Ireland can be considered British, Irish, Northern Irish, even Ulstermen or Ulsterwomen.

| ==Sable Starr== | |||
| Hello, BigDunc, thanks for relisting my latest srticle on Maud de Braose. My article that you tagged yesterday was deleted as I slept last night by an American editor.(I am on CET).I had found more sources on Sable but it was already deleted. This is not an ego thing, I really believe she desrves her own article. Seeing as Misplaced Pages has a groupies cat, why shouldn't it include one of the most notable groupies of the 1970's along with Bebe Buell and Pamela Des Barres. I grew up in that time and place, I know how famous Sable was, far more so than Connie Hamzy who has her own article. The groupies cat is sparse because we aren't allowed to write articles about the real groupies. What irriates me is how so many editors, especially those in America, have a regional bias-if they have never heard of someone, well they cannot be important, so must be deleted ASAP. As I said, BigDunc, this isn't an ego trip, I don't care who submits the article, I just felt that Sable Starr merited an article and that other editor deleted my article too quickly.Thanks.Sorry for bothering you but I sort of regard you as my mentor here at Misplaced Pages.] (]) 15:30, 6 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :With an article like that you have to be '''very''' careful of violating ]. Have a good read of that, sources have to be strictly adhered to on it.

| ::Also see it gives you a lot of help in creating articles. <strong>]</strong>] 15:46, 6 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :::I suppose writing about a groupie could be rather dodgy, seeing as she was 15 years old in 1973 and most of the people I mentioned are alive. If I could just get my hands on a proper book about her which could be sourced with dates, names, page numbers, references etc I'd have another go. But until then, I guess my safest bet is to stick with my standard medieval heiresses. They're easier to source and cannot complain about libel!!!Thanks again, BigDunc.Cheers.15:59, 6 June 2008 (UTC)] (]) | |||
