Adding categories
The easiest way to start adding categories is to find a similar article and copy from that. Taking your areticle on Ashley Bryant try searching for Britis Decathlete. Top of the search is Daniel Awde. Using edit source copy the appropriate ones and paste to your page. Also, at the bottom of the edit pane is a box labelled insert. Click this and change it to Wiki markup. Here you will find a blank category template which you can use with a suitable inclusion. Hope this helps.Malcolma (talk) 19:09, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Power of 10 (athletics), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See Wikipedia:FAQ/Businessfor more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by

Linking to other articles
Hi! As you have no doubt noticed I have been reviewing/housekeeping your recent article submissions.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.
