- The best way to avoid deletion debates, is to provide sources from the get-go. When you've finished writing, it is only harder to provide inline citations to specific facts. I once wrote something which I knew came from a source, but I could no longer find it. Adding the source immediately avoids such problems. (Also, the common practice is to build an article on a subpage of your userpage until it's all ready to go live. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:26, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
