Hi 5 albert square, I'm pretty sure Okc3993 is a sock of Diamese as per the block reasons of CanselLal4156 and Recc0044 - they all make the exact same edit -- samtar talk or stalk 08:40, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

Ah thank you @Samtar:, I had a feeling something wasn't right with the account, I just didn't know who's sock it was. I've gone ahead and blocked them. Thanks again!--5 albert square (talk) 08:47, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
No worries! Thanks for all the hard work you do -- samtar talk or stalk 08:49, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
Thanks @Samtar:, it's nice to feel appreciated. You'd think they would try and be a little original sometimes though. I swear every sock targets Jimbo Wales' talk page!--5 albert square (talk) 15:41, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

Claudette Hubbard

Hi. I tried to create a page for Claudette Hubbard since she is still on the List of EastEnders characters (2015 page, but it got deleted. Could you create one? --ForeverBoriSeddie187 (talk) 12:12, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

@AnemoneProjectors: you created the original redirect. Are you creating a page for Claudette in your userspace? Personally I'm in two minds as to whether or not she's notable enough for her own article yet.--5 albert square (talk) 12:34, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
She's on my list of articles to work on, but I haven't started it yet. I had completely missed the edit history of the redirect at Claudette Hubbard. The article that ForeverBoriSeddie187 (talk · contribs) and IP accounts had created was a copy/paste of the list entry, with no assertion as to her notability, seemingly no or very little extra work had been done, and no attribution had been given. I think she may be notable, but not as the list entry currently stands - we'd need to work on something to know for sure. My suggestion as always is to build on the list entry. anemoneprojectors 13:59, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
@ForeverBoriSeddie187: I would take note of what @AnemoneProjectors: has said above. If you like, I can move the article into your userspace, that way it would give you time to work on the article before it goes into the mainspace of Wikipedia. Would you like me to do this?--5 albert square (talk) 15:26, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
