[edit] Notability
The following regarding the notability of Harold Tichenor is from User_talk:SCEhardt#Deletion_of_article_on_Harold_Tichenor.
- Thank you for posting the reply to my query. I appreciate you taking time to do that. In regard to the WP:BIO which states in relevant part "Has the person made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in the specific field?", Mr. Tichenor published in 1988 an exhaustive genealogy titled "Tichenor Families in America" (google it), which not only appears in Amazon.com, but in libraries, genealogical and historical societies in virtually every state in the Union and is considered by many in the genealogical community as a primary reference in that field. I posted the article (which I had intended to update with more information about Mr. Tichenor and his work) as a service to any of your users who might have had an interest in genealogy and history, which Mr. Tichenor made a large contribution to by self publishing his 735 page work for the benefit of those interested in not only the history of one of the most senior European families on this continent(we arrived on this continent 130 years before the revolution), but history of the nation in general. I don't know who you are or the other user who made this decision, but I am sure your wisdom far exceeds mine in this regard. I am sure I have misconstrued the intent of Wikipedia and the open source movement in general. I wish you good fortune in your endeavors. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tichenor (talk • contribs) .
