Hi – while working at CP, I came across [[Frederick Race Godfrey]], which you deleted and restored on March 21 stating that CP hadn't lasted a full week. I deleted it today, and I wanted to let you know that if there are no good/untainted/uninfringing versions in the article's history '''and''' there is no assertion of permission, these articles can be speedied under G12. The instructions to admins are contradictory and haven't been updated since May 2007, but the change was made by Jimbo sometime after that. After I get that backlog cut down to size, those instructions are next.

It's the assertion of permission that gives them the seven days, so they have time to go to OTRS. If there's no claim of permission somewhere in an edit summary or a user talk page or the article talk page, go ahead and hit the delete button guilt-free. :-) Thanks for helping out! - [[User:KrakatoaKatie|<font color="navy">'''Krakatoa'''</font>]][[User talk:KrakatoaKatie|<font color="maroon">Katie</font>]] 20:17, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
