The article Clive Wilkins has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days 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/dated}} 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.

references at Clive Wilkins
[edit]I'm afraid that none of the references you have added are appropriate, they are what we call primary sources, we need in-depth coverage of Wilkins from secondary sources. The commercial links to Amazon are also not suitable. The mantra here is "We only summarise what reliable, independent published sources have to say about a subject. If there are no such sources then we cannot have an article" There are so far no such sources. Theroadislong (talk) 15:45, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Hi Jean Scott Thomson Cayn you not revert my edits when I'm trying to copyedit this article into a decent state. If you want can you find references for the exhibitions. Take a look at the exhibition catalogue I found, stuff like that. The books he has written also appear to be self published, as the publishing site only seems to contain his books, and will probably need to be removed. Please leave a message on my talk if you want at User talk:Scope creep to contact me. Thanks. scope_creep (talk)
Hi Scope creep, I am not particularly good at preparing pages for Wikipedia yet I realise. Apologies for messing your edits yesterday, I didn't realise we were both working on the article at the same time. I have to say how impressed I am by the way you pulled the article into shape, once I left you alone to get on with it. I learned a lot by analysing what you did. Great work and very clever. I am slowly broadening my understanding of the important work done here. Wikipedia is such an impressive world resource. People who work here are pioneers. Thank you for helping and seeing the worth of the article. Sincere best wishes. I hope I am writing this message in the right place, apologies if I have taken up space here in error.
