Gerhartsreiter etc.
Hi, thanks for your contributions to the Christian Gerhartsreiter article. Unfortunately, I've had to revert the changes for several reasons:
- Each article is about one person, not all people with a certain name. If there is more than one person with a certain name, there should be multiple articles, as there are for example for Peter Jones. See WP:DAB.
- Articles should show that their subject is notable. I have no idea whether Chris Chichester the journalist is notable, but if an article is created for him, it should demonstrate notability following the criteria in the link I shared.
- Given your user name, it looks like you may be Chris Chichester the journalist, in which case you should familiarize yourself with our conflict of interest policy.
- Inline references to external Web resources are rarely a good idea. See WP:EL.
Thanks again for your contribution. We look forward to seeing you here as a contributor. --Macrakis (talk) 17:22, 26 March 2017 (UTC)
