Proposed deletion of Michael Watt (philanthropist)

The article Michael Watt (philanthropist) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has 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 seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Wgolf (talk) 00:51, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

All good; I think the concern has been addressed. Given that you are a new editor, you should use the Wikipedia:Article wizard for any further attempts in setting up further articles; without that, you run a very high risk of having your work deleted. Schwede66 23:56, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

Your article on Dr. Reyes Gallardo really isn't ready - you need to delete everything that you only know because you learned it from his family members.

If it's only available from them, then it cannot be used. Got it?

I have moved the article into your userspace, where you can work on it. Let me know when you think it's ready. DS (talk) 06:00, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
