You could place the text from this template on your user page, if you like. Here is a suggestion, quoting the template: My name is Roly Willows. I "was born in Shoreham By Sea in 1958 played cricket for Middlesex and Lords Ground Staff in 1974 and on the staff at Sussex CCC in 1975 to 1979 also played County football for Shoreham in 1974 to 1979." —PC -XT + 04:41, 7 October 2014 (UTC) 04:44, 7 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I moved Template:Roly willows (with a lowercase w) to User:Rowillows/Roly willows in case you want to make it into an article. When you are done, you can click the button in the box I added to submit it for review. —PC -XT + 03:05, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I should caution you that others will probably ask about your username being similar to the draft title. If this is you, the content may be better on your userpage. —PC -XT + 03:07, 23 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your user page

I fixed the reference problem that was hiding most of your user page. I replaced two wikipedia references with a link to the article that mentions Roly Willows. (Please note that it is considered conflict of interest and possibly spam to add your own name to other articles. You should instead post on the article talk page.) User pages don't require references, if you have trouble with them. Please review the links provided in the welcome message. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. :) —PC-XT+ 03:23, 15 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your draft article, User:Rowillows/Roly willows

Hello, Rowillows. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Roly willows".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by one of two methods (don't do both): 1) follow the instructions at WP:REFUND/G13, or 2) copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|User:Rowillows/Roly willows}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, and click "Save page". An administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 19:55, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
