Eagles 24/7 (C) 06:12, 19 November 2020 (UTC)- Hi, I've gone ahead and moved your AFC submission into the mainspace and submitted it to WP:DRV at Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2020_November_19#Matthew_Axelson on your behalf. In the future, if an article was deleted through AfD and you believe the subject is now notable or the discussion was closed improperly, you should go straight to DRV instead of AFC. I think I've cleaned it all up now, good luck at DRV! Eagles 24/7 (C) 06:50, 19 November 2020 (UTC)]

Battle of Point Pedro (2007)
Hi. Have you tried using Google Scholar or other similar databases to expand the article? I made a very cursory search and found plenty of material on the subject. If the article is paywalled then you may employ other tools to access it. Regards.--Catlemur (talk) 21:19, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hi I did go through google scholar but I at the time I checked, I couldn't find anything in relation to the battle itself, so I relied on the new articles published online. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 11:53, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- The articles may not cover the battle itself but they have right what you need to expand the Background and Aftermath sections. Then reaching B class would be a cakewalk.--Catlemur (talk) 14:07, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
- Sure, I'll take a deeper look and see where I could improve, thank you. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 19:18, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
