Talk:Herbert London

From Conservapedia

This isn't an encyclopedic article. It's just 3 quotations without context. ZackV (talk) 00:41, 18 September 2016 (EDT)

You are entirely correct. Some pages like this exist around here. In general, such pages are simply deleted. Thanks for pointing it out! --David B (TALK) 00:52, 18 September 2016 (EDT)

I've left notes on the Herbert London and Walker cell talk pages about this phenomenon. These were "Ed Poor stubs[TM]". Ed Poor used to gather quotes that he found interesting, from various places on the internet, and rather than write them on Post-it notes or stick them on his refrigerator, he would stuff them into Conservapedia articles, often with no text whatsoever. Nothing to explain what it relates to. Most of those articles have been deleted by now, but you still come across one occasionally. I recommend deletion.

These are different from the Phagocytic vacuole page. That was a well-intentioned attempt to help Conservapedia become what it never became.

Because I expect those pages, and this talk page, to be deleted soon, I am making a copy for David B's talk page.

I came across this when recategorizing and decided to just change it into a real page with a lone citation, instead. It could be improved, but that's not a high priority for me now.--Abcqwe (talk) 16:19, 9 March 2017 (EST)

That's a good idea. I really know nothing about him--or most other people for that matter, so I haven't expanded it. If someone wants to make this into a real, full article, I'm fine with pulling the delete request. --David B (TALK) 16:38, 9 March 2017 (EST)
I don't know anything about him, either - of course, most of these biographies I write are of people of whom I've never before heard. I'm coming up on the "L" section, now, so I'm likely to expand this page soon.--Nathan (talk) 14:12, 23 May 2017 (EDT)
